I am having serious problems getting my MVP to work. I’ve been trying for about 3 month to get a watch able picture. First I set up the MVP over a wireless network but no mater what configuration set up I tried all I could get was a stuttery picture and sound. So presuming it was a problem with the wireless I have hard wired the MVP directly to my linksys router, I was optimistic that this would improve things but the picture and sound are exactly the same. Again I have tried loads of different settings in the configuration menu E.g. pre play delay settings and practically all others with out any improvements. This is now making me pull my hair out I have spent hours at this with no improvement.
Can any of you that have a MVP up and running for live TV play back help
Thanks in advance for any help.
I would like to be able to have my machine convert files and acually put them into another directory automattically. Basically so I can set it up to convert to wmv in a directory that is shared with my media server so my 360 can view them. Thanks. Is this possible already? I looked through the forums and could not see anything.
I seem to have an issue with recorded programs and the ability to control them. When I start a program the video runs perfectly. Once I start trying to fast forward, I start having problems.
The video will be running fine in the background by I cannot get the VRM to show up on the screent o control the video. Matter of fact I cannot get the nouse to shop up on top of the video. Eventually the mouse will show up on top of the video but the VRM will not show up.
Also, if I click and try to drag the screen up of down. the screen moved bu the video doesn't.
I was wondering if anyone else was using this wonderful keyboard/remote/mouse combo on GBPVR and has gotten the "Media" keys to work. I can't seem to figure out how to make the "skip" buttons, channel change, volume buttons to work.
Since sub confirmed that this isn't currently configurable by the end user (http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php?t=21350), I'd like to see if an option could be added to allow recordings to be listed in ascending order by date instead of, or in addition to, listing the newest first. I like to watch the old stuff first so I don't miss something. And since the Whats New tab only goes back so many days, it's easy to miss recordings unless I periodically scroll through all the alphabetized entries, looking for old dates. What I frequently do is scroll all the way to the bottom of the Whats New list, find a couple of show names, then switch to the Ready list and go into the shows that way, to make sure I catch the earliest entry of that title. That's a lot of extra scrolling and hunting. Surely, I'm not the only one who takes a first-in-first-out approach to watching TV.
Although I downloaded 98.13 the first day it was available (file date 10/19/06) , I just got around to updating from 98.8b this past weekend. Note, I'm never an early adopter of updated software until I've seen if there are any major issues reported by the community.
I know too from reading here that you've created / released some patches for 98.13.
Should I be using some / all of these patches?
What is the true 'latest version' number?
Thanks Sub for your time and work on the best free (and much better than most paid-for) PVR software.
Had an issue last night. Hit the record button on the MVP remote when watching BBC1 via MVP. Selected to record to end of current program, then went to bed. When I got up this morning GBPVR was still recording BBC1, and I had a 20Gb file. Only way I could stop the recording was to restart the recording service. Anyone else had this (first time I have recorded anything this way)? I have attached all logs incase there is anything in there. TIA
Hello, I am looking for some advice on a PVR. My idea is to have multiple PVR's connected to multiple TV's. So a server and some clients. (backend and frontend) I was looking at mythtv, but am not too familiar with Linux, then I came upon GB-PVR. I like the frontend/backend concept with Myth, I also like how configurable it is. However, I also would like to take advantage of some of the newer capture and video cards (non-Linux friendly). I have not found any good comparisons that compares the PVR software. From what I've been reading, GB-PVR seems to be the most customizable for windows. Will this work in GB-PVR?
Am I still able to setup a FE/BE system?
Will the hardware I'm looking at for GB-PVR?
Has anyone compared the different PVR solutions?
Will I be able to capture HD on client2, and play it back on client1 (in near real time)?
I would also like to us this as a Media Player/DVD storage playback. Is this doable?
The main TV that I will be watching is a Samsung HL-S5086W. (I'd like to use the HD for the PVR).
For the server (backend) system....
Pentium 4 1.6
748mb memory
SCSI drives (I have some 80GB drives that I'll use for the time being, then upgrade to some larger SATA drives)
For client2 (frontend) system - This is also my main computer for everyday work. Not connected to a TV.
Dell E510
P4 2.8 HT
1GB memory
250GB SATA drive
to be added....
capture card - would like to add a HD capture card, along with a 2nd dual tuner capture card
For client3 (frontend) system
xBox (not the 360) if it'll work? Not sure...
Any feedback/comments/suggestions will be appreciated!
just started playing with GBPVR... tried it on my main machine ( WinXPsp2) and all is fine.
put together a fresh machine, new win2k install, sp4, mdac2.6 and ms .net framework all installed.
install of GBPVR seems ok, but when the config util launches i get a dialog box with :
Microsoft .Net Framework

I have had a look in config.exe.log and this is all i get :

On my XP machine the log is much longer..
I have tried reinstalling Sp4, Mdac6.2, GBPVR and always get the same error...
I was wondering if there is any way to change the order pending/re-occuring recordings are listed.
I know they are currently listed in date order, and this is fine when you only have a few, but when you have several pages of them it's quite cumberome to navigate to the one you want. Is there any way to list alphabetically instead?
It doesn't bother me so much but promised the missus i'd ask on her behalf - I suspect the other halves are reponsible for a lot of questions on here lol!
