I've installed GBPVR on a second computer on my network, but can't seem to get it to work. I've enclosed relevent sections of the client GBPVRexe log which seem to indicate some database or file access problems. Any help would be appreciated. thanks.

When I play a DVD, I get this gradient at the top and bottom on the right. Any idea where it is from? I'm using the Intervideo decoders. DVD navigation however seems much better.



Also, thank you for adding the duration on the slide show. Can you make it so the slide show will start even if the ".." is selected rather than the first image?

Also, in the last build, in the music library (not using media player), if you played a song, after it was done, the next song would play. It no longer does this, playback stops. Is there a way to get it back like it was?

I am running 98.8 and have a strange problem. The recording service seems to be starting at random time and not allowing me to view other channels in live tv. I am using live tv preview (ie. not timeshifting the tv). When I exit GBPVR the recording continues until I manually resart the recording service. If i look in the recording tab in GBPVR there are no in process recordings listed. Any ideas? If there is another thread addressing this issue just point me in the right direction (I don't seem to be able to find it). Thanks for the help.

I have been having playback issues w/ DVDs. I am running 98.13 (which works great otherwise by the way).

Prior to upgrading I had to use NVIDIA Purevideo video codec , and MPEG audio codec which worked reasonably well as the DVD decoders. The Intervideo codec would play, but during freeze GBPVR upon exit, nor would it hi-light the menu items.

Since upgrading to 98.13, the combination of Purevideo video, and MPEG audo worked but would only display in the upper two thirds of the screen. I thought that this was an Nvidia issue and reinstalled the nvidia decoder w/o success.

I then tried the Etymonix MPEG-2 decoder (trial ver), Elecard and the Cyberlink decoder (from the Ace Codec Megapack). I had to edit the config.xml file to allow the Etymonix to be a choice. At this point things got really screwed up and I could now barely play files any of the dvd video decoders. The Nvidia and Etymonix play but does not show the DVD title menu at all (you have to guess what you are choosing). The intervideo plays but has the continued problem of freezing GBPVR upon exit.

I tried unregistering the cyberlink and the Elecard codecs, and reinstalled the nvidia codec w/o success (it now plays full screen, but continues not to show DVD menus). I also tried to look at the graphedit files in the gbpvr directory. I truely do not know what to do with those files.

Thanks in advance

Couple of little bug fixes as pointed out by HtV and tkgafs.

On the wiki as always: http://gbpvr.com/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Plugin/MusicLibrary2

Previous threads for previous versions have been closed.

Changes:
29-Oct-2006 - Version 4.3

• Fixed playlist deletion while playing - now doesn't always restart the track if it doesn't need to.
  
• Fixed error when hitting replay (ctrl-d) in navigation screens it would return to the top
  
• Fixed error where only the seconds portion of a song was going into the db, not the full actual length.
  
• Delete a character on the remote text entry is from the Ctrl-W command - which is the Hauppauge 45 key remote prev channel command.
  

I can't figure this one out. I moved a working GBPVR box from an apartment to a house less than a mile away. Cable provider is the same, zip code is the same, etc.

I've installed GBPVR at least half a dozen times without incident, but I can't get this to work. I've uninstalled it, deleted /gbpvr/, and reinstalled but I still get this:

I just got the ATI 650 Pro chip today to replace my PowerColor 550. I have to say the difference is not very significant. But one problem I have that I did not notice on the other card is a motion problem. It's only sometimes, but an object on the TV gets blocky and does not move so smoothly. For instance, I was watching Star Trek and when the Enterprise takes off in the intro, for a second the upper half of the ship looks square and the space ship motion wasn't smooth.
I am useing basic cable service from my local cable company via a coaxial connection.(GB_PVR, Windows XP Pro SP2)

Any suggestions on how to fix this?

Was wondering if anyone has set up a GB PVR machine with a 650 Pro ... also I have the ATI Remote Wonder and it doesn't seem to work with the Girder plugin ... anyone have a clue?

I have XP Pro SP2 with .net and (finally) a fully functional GBPVR installation. Seems like the picture should be better and it's "choppy" when watching live tv. When I did a tuning assistance channel scan, the channels came in fine. Good play, no "choppy".

Running basic Cable Co. coax into the cable jack of my card ... will eventually plug uhv/vhf/hd antenna into the digital jack ... any suggestions for that to work properly?

Finally, I also have a Satellite Set Top Box I will use with the comp/svid connector provided with my card ... anybody chime in on this?

I saw that you have support for the onair tuner for qam channels. Is there any chance of getting the fusion 5 support with qam as well?

Build 49 of the Enhanced Web Admin (EWA) has been released.

You can download the build here.

Install instructions are located on the wiki.

Report any issues in EWA Support Sub-Forum.

Changes include:

• UncleJohnsBand: Added ability to view Manage Recordings in a tree-view. Default is table-view.
  
• UncleJohnsBand: Corrected bug with streaming wmv.
  • To correct this you will need to go into Config and reset the codec to store the corrected value.
  
  
• UncleJohnsBand: Moved the Search Results Tree-View option to the Search Results page to make it easier to switch between table-view and tree-view.
