Can anyone advise on how to get this Diamond PVR660 unit to work with GB-PVR? I have tried multiple PVR apps such as Snapstream, Totasl Media, Sage, Tvedia, Freevo, and MythTV. I need an all in one solution that will allow TV, FM Radio as well as video and music serving and this solution looks to be the best. Any help would be appriciated.

I think a nice feature might be that if you are watching tv in timeshift mode and decide to record whatever you are watching, the recording starts at the begining of when you started watching in timeshift mode (not at the minute you decided to record).

I watch all the time in timeshift mode and thought others might find this useful as well.

Anyone using this tool??

I have just come across this software and i am finding it hard to install the channels.

I have tried using the tuning assistant but not sure which device i should select i use the Hauppauge WinTv 88X Tv card. Which device should i select or can anyone give me some advice on what i need to do

I am having a problem with the recording service in that the machine will not standby (set for 5 minutes) when running.

I had this previously and set the service to manual startup and then started it manually after boot was complete. This, strangely, fixed it for a while but now whenever the service is running is doesn't go to sleep. I have no pending recordings for the near future (1 day away) and the EPG update is at 5 AM. Can I wiew a list of GBPVR wake up times or know when it is preventing standby?

Any ideas welcome.

Hi There,

Every couple of hours my computer crashes while running GBPVR. It happened when I was running the frontend, so I kept the front end closed, but my OS still crashed.

I have closed GBPVR and the GBPVRserver, and I am going to go home at the end of the day and see if it has crashed again. I.E. I am going to confirm whether it is GBPVR actually doing it, but it seems like it.

I have attached my log files. Any ideas?

Just installed Slimm GB-PVR, and I receive the following error. Running on Win2k with .NET 1.1 and 2.0 installed. All updates and service packs installed. GB-PVR version 0.98.13b. Any ideas?

Ok here it is, I have a amd 1800+ 1 gig of ram 10gig hd(which will have a 40 gig hd for storage/swap file) a hauppauge 500 and a msi fx5700le 256.

I've been working on this for days now and cant seem to get any further than I am. My problem is no video, i use the tunning assitant and it goes thru the channels with video and audio I have reinstalled a zillion times all driver all cards all programs and cant seem to get it too work I cant get live tv to work, watch show to work or anything. I click on watch show or live tv and get a flicker of the screen and audio of the channel but no video it just shows the gbpvr menu/interface. I feel it might be a video card issue but y can it show it on the tuner assitant and not the main program? I have direct x 9.0b installed (fx5700le doesnt support 9.0c) and all the newest drivers/programs for everything else. support for the hauppauge card sux, just says plug it in install drivers and away u go, like no one has had problems. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi!

I wonder if it is possible to get the subtitle from for example a .srt file??

If I rename the srt-file to the same as the movie name in the same directory.
Is it possible to get the subtitle on the screen then??

I just installed gbpvr 98.13b All seem to work fine. Have not recorded anything yet, but thiis upgrade seems very nice and worked without a glitch. Nice job Sub! Thanks.

Alas, one glitch developed (I also had it with prior versions where some WMVs simply did not play):
1. All WMV files play back on GBPVR on the PC screen with wmp9.
2. Play back on MVP works for many not for others. When it does not the console shows error FFMPEG has encountered problem and needs to close.
I find no pattern common to those that run and those that crash (i.e. file size, encoding, screen size, bit rates, audio or video encoders parameters etc.)
3. Using the native MPV software most of the file that crash FFMPEG run, but not all. Very few crash with the MVP continuing to operate but no more videos can be played until the mvp ir reset. The ones that crash generally run OK with GBPVR and all run ok on the PC screan either with GBPVR or started with WMP9
Any suggestions welcome
