Got a PVR150 (1045) and remote works well with Wintv 2000 (nice red blinking led on blaster). Using dishnet reciever (tried 301 and 501 and both turn channels well).
Just downloaded and set up GBPRV. I did the 45 button update. I can get guide, set volume, and turn channels with remote on GBpvr screen, but no red winking led light on blaster. So it never turns a dishnet reciever channel.
My guess is it is in the GBpvr. config settings.
These are my settings: Recording Source: Direct Record Plugin selected PVR150, Svideo external, medium quatlity EPG Source: Zap2it USA/Canada selected setup with zap2it for dishnet Channel Changer: .exe changer plugin selected "use 3 digit numbers" , I have no single digits.
Are those settings right for pvr150+GBpvr+Haup 45 button remote+dishnet reciever ?
Computer is AMD 2500, 512ram, 80gig HD (60gig free), FX5200 vid card,
thanks
I recently installed GBPVR 98.8b, and configured my first recording was a recurring one at 3am to 5am. The first date recorded fine, and I then added a couple other recurring recordings. However, when I now try to delete the first recurring recording, I get
Quote:Error: The added or subtracted value results in an un-representable DateTime.
Parameter name: value
I was able to delete the other recurring recordings, but not this first one.
I had a couple plugins installed (MVP Tray Icon, MVPPosition, Recordings2) but even after removing them from the .\plugins folder I still can't delete this recording.
I'm concerned having this messed-up recording in the list has confused GBPVR about other pending recordings (GBPVR said there was nothing pending, though it was set to record later today). How can I delete it?
I have just installed the new version of GBPVR on my computer (XP Prof) using Hauppauge Nova USB2 without any custom skin or plugins. When I set recording , it seem to stop after a bit but the recording status indicates that it is still recording. This has happens most of the time. When I looked at the log, it doesn't seem to have any error - just stops (see below)

For some weird reason gbpvr hiccups all hdtv feeds now and sdtv feeds when dealing with atsc soruces now. A few possible problems that can fix it?
1. Elecard mpeg decoder: When i use it...that little watermark block thing moves rapidly around the video. The decoder is registered, as far as i know.
2. Directx: After reading around ive discovered maybe the quartz.dll is a source of some problmes. Can anyone link to a 9.0b quartz.dll file?
Spent the last hour trying to find an answer to this question - no luck!!
Anyway hear goes:
I am currently running GBPVR on a AMD Athlon XP 2000 which runs @ 1667MHZ. Been thinking about upgrading the motherboard/CPU, maybe an AMD Semperon 64 3100+ which runs @1.8 MHZ.
If the speed of the system is dictated by the CPU clock speed (I realize there are other factors ie: bus speed, mem speed..) than an upgrade to a Semperon 64 running at 1.8MHZ isn't really going to yield a great increase in speed?? Especially if I use all the existing components (mem, disks etc).
A new CPU/Motherboard combo runs about $100.00 US. OTOH for a less than 2% increase in speed it isn't worth the effort!
Hi,
I just recently purchased a pvr-500 tuner card and MediaMVP extender and installed GBPVR so that i could use a box i have as a PVR system.
I have a Intel P4 1.5G CPU and two 18GB SCSI drvies connected to a Adaptec 29160 SCSI controller, a Hauppauge PVR-500MCE as the tuner card, and SoundBlaster Audigy2Z for a sound card the OS is XP Pro SP2.
I have a Second box a Dell PowerEdge 2400 set up as a file server running Win2003 Server it has 438GB of storage space for media. This is were i am trying to record to and all use as the Library for the media.
All of these all side on a 100MB network thats wired.
I have mapped the file server share to the pvr and in the config, under the directories tab set each path correctly were media is to be stored or recorded to, the buffer for LiveTV is also mapped.
I have been able to use the Tuning Assitant to search all incoming channels from my cable provider connected to the tuner card and this works fine i see each channel and select OK. My EPG is with Zap2it and this pulls in fine also in the config. I use the GBPVR-MediaServer to access the MVP and this works fine also. I have been able to select a item from the guide list select it for recording and it tells me that it is schduled and this seems to work also.
But when it comes time to record the show GBPVR says it recording and all but nothing get recorded.
It also seems to be ture if i try and watch live tv nothing happens.
I have read a lot of documentation but i just can't seem to figure out why i can't record or view anything from the tuner card.
I have placed some Jpegs in the photos sectionon the file share and they display fine through the MVP.
I have been recording tv shows using gb-pvr, but watching them on MCE. The reason I do this, is that I prefer the functionality I get in gb-pvr over mce, but picture quality of playback is much better on mce. My question is, how can I view the graph for MCE, as I can with gb-pvr and lastgraph.grf. If i can do that i can find out why i have a difference in pic quality.
I hear that IE 7 is being or may be released via windows update tomorrow - if you have windows update setup automatically you will want to disable taht "feature" till sub has compatibility with IE 7 sorted out....
