I install the intervideo codecs and it will not render anything. I select render the file in graphedit and it says some of the streams in this movie are unsupported. The audio is rendered by the intervideo codec but the video is not rendered at all. I reinstalled windows and it didn't clear the issue. These are the only codecs on the machine.
I am just using a file recorded by GBPVR on high quality.
I've set up a Season Recording to record "Desperate Housewives" which is on Tuesdays at 21:15. I happened to be near the machine today when it should have been recording. It woke up on time (2 minutes before hand), however the Recording Now/Recording Soon message send "None recording" and there was no disk activity. It wasn't recording so I started the recording manually.
Any ideas -- my logs are attached. I'm using the latest version of GB-PVR with the patches from the sticky and the blue skin.
Can anyone let me know whether the Lifeview DVB-T card actually works with gbpvr?
I know that this has been asked before but I have not come to any conclusion.
The configuration app detects the card correctly and I load the EPG data from Bleb(UK) but when it scans for channels it finds nothing.
I would suspect that I have no signal but for the fact that if I then run Showshifter I have lots of working channels!
I would really like to know whether anyone has this configuration working at the moment. I am very new to this and have not been able to work out whether I am doing something wrong or not.
I have tried other TV programs that have ended up not working with the Lifeview card but gbpvr does say that it is supported. I have the latest Lifeview BDA drivers from their website.
Is it worth continuing or am I on a loser?
:confused:
My setup: gbpvr running on a computer connected to my living room TV through s-video and a wired MVP connected to the tv in the bedroom.
I've got an MCE remote that came with my hauppauge 150 card. It works fine in the living room. When using the hauppauge remote that came with the mvp on the mvp in the bedroom, however, some buttons do not work. The skip forward button in particular throws an error and exits out of whatever recording i'm watching.
I've started looking into using HIP to solve the problem but i'm wondering if/how it will work to have 2 different remotes - one for the living room, one for the bedroom. Any ideas? Should i just use one remote? is it possible to use one for each room? Thanks for the help!
I can stream Videos no problem using WMP or VLC as the external player with the following settings...
Video bitrate 128
Video size 320x213
Streamer transcode settings WMV/MP3/ASF
Streamer Buffer 15000
I'm streaming over the internet from home to work. My upload speed at home is 256k.
When I change the streamer transcode setings to 'H264/MP4A/MPEG-TS' VLC Plays for about 2 seconds before it freezes and WMP refuses to play at all. Anybody got any ideas why this is happening?. I would really like to use the H264 codec for streaming video as it gives a much better picture quality than WMV.
It all used to work just fine. I have 2 PVR500 and 1 PVR 350's The problem is that I seem to record movies just fine but when it comes time to relay them they are not there. When I look in the Recorded Movies directory it creates the folder like it always did except now there ther is no movie file.
Please give me some direction as to where I need to look.
Hi all
I just registered in this forum. I want to introduce my self / situation quickly.
I am working in germany currently until end of 2007. I don't understand german, and my wife is dying to watch her favorite TV show.
I am thingking of using my current pc and add some hardware/software to make it a pvr hooked on a friend cable at his house.
From time to time I will access my pvr pc remotely from germany to copy all those recorded tv show files and then view it on my pc in germany.
current pc spec (can not remember exactly):
- ABIT K7 mobo
- CPU AMD|T-BIRD 1.4GHZ/266 PGA
- 512 RAM
- VGA ABIT|SILURO GF2 MX400 64M SDRAM
- running win2k
- external 500 GB western digital mybook
- USB 2.0 PCI
- win 2000
my questions:
- can I use this computer to do just pvr and support remote access (maybe via ssh, vnc, ftp)
- which pvr card to use
- can gbpvr be set to create 1 hr file, to create smaller files to help ftp-ing.
- does the computer have enough power to support tv show recording and sending file via ftp to me in germany
- can I use vnc to remotely control gbpvr so I can change / modify tv show recording schedule?
thanks for all your help. I am about to go to austin texas where my home is for a 10 days roatation. I really want to be able to get all hardware by that time and built and test
any help / advice/ cofirmation / comment/ are appreciated
Firstly thanks for the great software! I've had my pvr running GBPVR for the last two years so I thought it was time to pop back to your site and upgrade Actually the machine used to crash once a week, but I think that was the PVR 350 drivers.
I was a little disappointed that I needed to update .net and msi installer to get things running, especially since MS has the silly WMA tool stuff. But thats not your fault So I decided that I would do a complete clean install of the machine. So this is what I'm using:
GBPVR seems to install (the finished button appears) but then I guess the config tool tries to start. Thats when I get an error message. I've attached the log files, let me know if you need more info.
