I have turned off WikiWordLinking on the wiki. This means that you don't need to hide stuff with [= =] or ` (e.g. [=PVR500=]).
It also means that you have to explicitly mark links with double brackets [[ ]] eg. [[Main.HomePage]] or [[Main/ReadMeFirst]]. In the change, I suspect some links have been "lost" - please help me fix them - or report them to me and I'll fix them.
I'm doing this since I could not find a secure way of enabling external, site-wide WikiWords and it seemed that we spent more time on trying to hide wikiwords from becomming links than we gain from the autolinking.
Can anyone point me in the right direction for implementing the ISettings interface. I get my values to show up, and I can change to one of the possible values, but it never saves the value.
I have been unable to find any examples of other plugins using this interface, so if someone could push me in the right direction I would really appreciate it.
Thanks in advance
Hi, recently I started to use gbpvr to record my shows in the background and all was fine until my pvr started acting up. when I would open gbpvr, the pvr would start skipping and stuttering the picture would do this and I wasn't able to get a picture from the proram that came with my pvr. It gave me some error message so I decided to reinstall the drivers and applications. Unfortuneatly, I have misplaced the CD it came with and had to download the drivers and applications from this web site http://www.shspvr.com. After downoad and installing the drivers and apps, everything was fine again but that is when the recording qualities problem started no matter what quality i choose, it seems to be recording in 720x480 @6000kbps. I used to be able to set my recording qualty in the recording options when I went to click a program I wanted to record and it would record in the quality I choose which is low quality but now when I choose low quality, it will not record in low quality. It will record in the quality it wants to record in. The reason I want to record in the low quality is that so I can fit an x amount of video on the dvd without having to recompres which will take up more time than is nessesary to make a dvd. I have a Hauppauge WinTV PVR USB2 (although after reinstalling the drivers and apps, it reads as Haupauge WinTV PVR2 USB2 in the device manager. I even tried changing the quality of live tv to match the quality I want to record in but stil s a no og. Anyone experience this odd problem? Thanks.
I'm a new user to GB PVR, and just installed it last night. I have previously tried myth and media portal, spending 25-40 hours on each before I gave up on them out of frustration.
Last night I installed and configured GB PVR in less than an hour - including setting up the channel guide. I'm able to watch TV, record TV, and watch movies from my video library (except .avi's) - everything I really wanted out of a PVR, and, I have much less than ideal hardware.
I don't know what my limitations will be with my hardware. I have a PVR150 as a tuner card, and I haven't tried watching and recording at the same time or anything, but with where I'm at now and the little time invested, I'd have to say GB PVR is the best from the PVR's I've tried. The only thing that doesn't work are: watching .avi's from media library, and controling volume using my haugepauge remote, but those are both small issues that I can deal with over time, compared to working with myth or mediaportal and just trying to get live tv to work.
It is really great to find a PVR software that does the basics well, without major headaches. I will be donating to GB PVR.
Just upgraded to 98.13b. Did a couple of recordings last night, but they stutter for half a second every 30 seconds. In the log I find this for each one:

I have a Twinhan DVB-S, using the 'Twinhan DVB-S (DVB-TV 878 Digital Tuner Driver)' (version 1.2.3.8 of the twinhan BDA driver) and the signal strength and quality have never shown anything but 0 during channel scans in GB-PVR (though not in other apps). I suppose this is what is causing this retune and subsequent skip.
To fix the skip, I changed BDACheckSignalStatusDuringRecording in the config to 0, which seems to have disabled this check.
So, two questions. Firstly, is the old early filesize check still in there? That's saved me a few times, and I wouldn't like to think that I've just turned off the only check. Previously, I've had quite a few 6kb files that GBPVR has picked up on and restarted.
And secondly, less hopefully, has anyone managed to get the signal and quality strength reporting properly in GBPVR?
I had my first ever failed recording yesterday. I've successfully recorded hundreds of shows and never had a failure. I set a show to be recorded from 12:30PM to 1:00PM with no other shows scheduled for that time. I have two tuners (PVR150 and M150) and my system was in standby, as always, prior to the recording start time. The show recording failed. I had two other shows scheduled for later in the day (8:00 to 9:00 and 9:00 to 10:00) and GBPVR woke my machine recording both perfectly.
Any ideas on what might have happened to the 12:30 show?
Is there another way not to split multiple recordings in a row, than to program them manually to one recording?
It would be nice, if GBPVR could recognize two episodes in a row and not split the file.
I've had some trouble getting web streaming working. Using it from both the localhost and another computer on the intranet does nothing; VLC opens and sits there and doesn't appear to do anything.
Apparently my system had an issue last night and the recording service must have failed a couple of times. The result is that I have 3 recording files for each show that was recording.
I can not view them via GBPVR becuase it only picks up the one file that happens to have about 30 seconds of a recording. The other two files represent the rest of the show.
Is there a utility or tool that will allow me to combine these three files into one single file?
After uppgrading to .13 my recordings becomes 0 bytes. i copied the config and database and laguage file back from my backup and then the recordings work again, but i guess thats not the best solution.
How do i find out what the problem was so that i can fix it?
