My tv room has satellite and computer feed to a projector. I want to split the screen, so I can look at tv channels and be on the net at the same time. The projector doesn't allow 2 inputs to be on the screen at the same time. I know there is something out there, but at the same time it needs to be affordable with little resolution loss. Any help is appreciated

When I start my computer and try to run GBPVR and watch tv the program freezes, and I need to restart my computer to get it working. If I just restart the program I get the following error: "Object refference not configured to accept an object" (translated from danish )
I have this log:

Ten Things You Can Do Today to Stop The Spread of DRM:

http://defectivebydesign.org/en/blog/ten...s_for_oct3

I've used GBPVR for the past few weeks and have everything figured out but stuttering or hesistation every few seconds when I "catch-up". Its a simpe config;

PVR150MCE (latest drivers - what drivers should I be using?).
XP Pro
3.0Ghz P4D
2GB RAM
NVIDIA 256meg 7600

NVIDIA PureVideo
FFDSHOW
Reclock (to do jitter correction -- otherwise things won't sync -- this is NOT the problem -- with DirectSound/Waveout the same issue occurs).

If I pause the LiveTV (in encode-pass through) and then unpause it, everything is perfect. The issue only occurs when I hit ctrl+o to catch-up and watch current TV. This also occurs if I disable LiveTV mode and always use time shift mode.

Its obviously not a performance issue....? I have the horsepower. GBPVR has subtitles disabled (since that could be it according to my forum searches) and GBPVR is set at a High priority.

Could it be that the PureVideo decoder doesn't have a high priority? It just seems like there is some sort of starvation and the PVR150MCE ins't being consistent. Like I said, when I'm watching TV with a delay (not caught up) things work fine, no PureVideo works fine (On a seperate issue in time shift mode the PureVideo taskbar icon doesn't show up but GraphEdit confirms its running -- or so I believe).

Ideas?

Thanks, Dale

WHAT WORKS:
-recording television shows using the TVGuide (entire program)
-can playback record television shows
-quality of the video and audio of recorded shows is superb

WHAT DOESN'T WORK:
-can't watch live tv: "Error: An invalid argument was supplied"
-manual recording: "Error: Failed to communicate with the recording service"
-can't manual stop TVGuide recordings: "Error: Failed to communicate with the recording service"

I use the mvp with a crossover cable anstatic ip, since upgrading to 9808 whenever pc is reboot or shutdown the mvp blinks the no cable icon on screen. i have to remove the power and start hauppauge to get dongle to load and then its good again. what can i do for this

How many people here are using Seagate 7200.8 series drives; the 400gig drives are a really good deal at the moment. With a 5 yr warranty.

There is some complaint about failure rates though. Losing all your data in 6 months would be no fun, even if it is just TV.

Success or failure stories?

Thanks,

Brian

After resolving my EPG issues I wanted to drop a line to let you guys know that you have a nice ap here and to thank you for what must be a huge effort on your part to support this.

Hi,

just bought this dual tuner DVB-T card, and it works flawlessly with GBPVR when adding these sections to the BDA.ini-file:

Hello,

Is this setting only for people using the UIRT as a reciever, or is it for transmitting as well?

I cant find the setting in the config app, or the config.xml - I'm running 0.98.8

The reason I ask is that I've been playing around, and after ar ecording the USBUIRT wont work with the command line app - but the recording service can still use it to change channels for other recordings scheduled.

I have a small front end for the commandline app which has my frequently used channels on it for when I leave the remote downstairs.

Thanks
