Does or will GB-PVR support the Diamond Xtreme TV PVR550 II Video capture card? If not; what softwaare will support it?

I've trying to put the parralel hardware together but for some reason i don't know how to follow the diagram does anyone have a actual pictures of what the LEDs look like hooked up to the parralel port? am I supposed to hook them up to a cable or to actual port behind the computer? I've read the two biggest threads in this site pertaining to that but I still can not get an actual picture of what it looks like....I would appreciate the help

Hi there,

I have had my Nova T USB now for a number of years. I have noticed support for the card extremely lacking in every department (apart from showshifter), and was wondering if the card is/will be/can be supported in the future?

I should note that I am referring to the original, not the Nova T USB2

Thanks a lot

Which DVB s Cards do you recommend (anyone) for New Zealand and why?

Just did an update to latest gbpvr

when i try to play a recording or video i get an error-message similar to:
http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php?t=21918

recording plays under the error-message, but when you click it away, gbpvr stops.

I first got it also when exiting gbpvr, but that solved smoothly after 150-driver-update.

After that i even did a gbpvr 'repair', but that didn't help.

Unfortunately unable to 'clip' the errormessage from the screen.

any ideas??

I attempted to record a show this morning at 10am for 1 hour. Unfortunately I can't set per minute increments for recording so I attempted to set padding values to make sure I recorded all of my show. The recording time was from 10 to 11 and I have a pre-show and post-show padding of 2 minutes each so my file should be 64 minutes in length. It is 59:57 in length. Gbpvr started recording about 2 seconds before the show started and ended up cutting off an unknown number of seconds at the end. Why didn't the padding work???? GBPVRRecordingService.exe-native.log shows the following which proves, to me at least, that padding isn't active:

10:00:02.109 VERBOSE ConexantRecorder::StartRecording() done
11:00:00.031 VERBOSE ConexantRecorder::StopRecording()
11:00:00.203 VERBOSE ConexantRecorder:one()

Is there something else I need to set to get padding to work or am I just not understanding what it's supposed to do? If I'm misunderstanding then I have to ask if there is a way to get down to the minute increments on show schedules so I can manually add my own padding like I'd do with my old ATI software.

By the way, my computer's time is the same as my digital cable receiver so I know that the software should have been able to start and stop recording at the correct times.

Seems like just recoding the page to allow the file to be streamed might work, or maybe it's already there, I just don't know how to access it.

Hi,

Does anyone know how to configure XMLTV to automatically retrieve EPG for use with GB-PVR?.

One other query, for some reason or another even though almost all of the channels that I'm able to receive on a stand-alone DVB-T Receiver have been manually selected via Settings>Grabbers under XMLTV.

The following channels only are being found on a GB-PVR channel scan. If anyone can offer any suggestions as to why no other channels are being received I'd be grateful.

CBeebies
Channel 4
Five
Five Life
Five US

EPG is not showing upon pressing 'Guide' button on WinTV Nova-T-USB2 Remote Control. Guess that this is due to EPG/channels not being configured correctly .

Thank you .

Tried entering "C:\Program Files\XMLTV GUI\XmltvGUI.exe \Grab" into UpdateEPG.bat but this didn't work.
(XmltvGUI.exe works without the \Grab (or /Grab) switch but not with the switch - any ideas why this isn't working?).

Entered the following into UpdateEPG.bat and this seems to work alright.
