Last night I tried to upgrade to the latest version (0.98.8), but when the installation runs, it comes up asking for the gbpvr09707.msi file, which unfortunately I no longer have. If I click cancel when it asks for the msi file, it attempts to continue with the install, but then says there is an error with Config.
I've tried uninstalling the previous version from the Add/Remove section, but when it tries to uninstall it also asks for the msi file. If I click cancel it says its removed and the entry diappears, but all files remain, if I restart the PC gbpvr then starts up after logging in (as normal), and its uninstall entry re-appears in Add/Remove.
Previously, it had been asking for the MSI file any time i tried to go to Config, but it would let me get in to Confing if I clicked cancel so I never bothered about it before (big mistake of course).
Since trying to update/uninstall, GBPVR has been running un-reliably. Its still version 0.97.7 according to the System page. It seems to randomly come up with errors messages, for example it would complain about an invalid object reference, and some other messages which I never wrote down, but I can later on.
Anyway, does anyone know where I can get a previous release from so I can try and see if it makes a difference if I make the original MSI file available when upgrading or removing.
DirecTV is consistently adding new channels. Everytime this happens I go into zap2itlabs and take off the channels I don't want. But the GBPVR guide keeps the guide data that was there already. What is the easiest way to delete that?
I have not been able to autoconvert since upgrading to 98.08, I have checked a few other post and tried moving ffmpeg but still nothing. Here are my logs, for future reference which log file should I check for this type of error?
I am trying to use HIP to remote control my PC running GBPVR. I am using the Grey Hauppauge remote (that comes with WinTV 150) and USBUIRT as my IR receiver and blaster. I first made USBUIRT learn the keys 1-10 of my cable STB through GBPVR's config and now it blasts channel changes on the STB and acts as the channel changer successfully.
Now I am trying to remote control GBPVR using the above remote and each time I try to teach HIP a key on my remote, HIP asks me to confirm the keypress and when I press the key again, HIP throws a **Values do not match** error message and refuses to learn the key. HIP refuses to learn ALL the keys on my Hauppague remote in the same manner.
I just got everything working exactly the way I wanted it but tonight I purchased a few shows I had missed from itunes. When I went to do so they informed me I had to download itunes 7 well I did and now not only do my itunes videos stutter all the time but for some reason it seems to have effected gb-pvr as well. It's nothing major it just seems like when I start something up everything hesitates for a second and I can't move through any menus while it's doing so. It didn't do this until after I downloaded this latest version of itunes so I'm assuming that it has something to do with that but I don't really know where to look to see what changes itunes has made to my system to cause this.
Has anybody else had this problem? Using a Nova-T recording from Freeview in the UK, with DVR-MS as the multiplexer. The last two episodes of series two of Lost both produced files where the video stopped at the title (the word lost in white on a black background) and the sound track carried on to the end of the episode. I thought it must be some bad reception problem so when they were repeated this weekend I tried recording again. Same result!
The signal was there, as restarting the GBPVR recording service half way through recorded to the end OK. As far as the GBPVR logs were concerned everything was working (as in 'checking signal stats took total: 500ms ').
It could be a bug in the Nova-T or in DVR-MS but it has not happened on anything else.
with my gbPVR I have 2 channels which I grab via DVB-T EPG Broadcast, but everytime he does this, he recognized new channels in the same bouquet, sometimes with strange names and put them automaticly into the channellist ... maybe it would be nice to select an option where I can handle if he does this or just ignore new found channels.
Every so often when I start to watch a recording it freezes (I can exit though, just no skip, fast forward, etc), and starts to max out the hard drive. It like the recording is corrupt in some way, it's only happened twice now.
After 30 seconds or so it quits and goes back to the recordings window. I can't skip past it either as it does the same thing at the same point (near the start of the recording). I have some padding, so I just use videoredo to cut the start of the recording and it's fine. Just wondered if anyone else has experienced this problem?
Since this is my first post, I would first like to thank the gbpvr community for the great work!
I am trying to use a small remote (few buttons, no numbers) to control gbpvr and I would be much easier if there was a way to implement the skip the way it is done in mediaportal: hit skip once and wait, it skips 10 secs, hit skip twice (in rapid succession) wait and it skips 1 min, 3 times 5 mins, etc. On the osd it should show after each hit how much it intends to skip forward, unless you hit skip again.
Is there a plugin or a configuration option that accomplishes that?
I upgraded from 97.07 to 98.08 last week. Since then the GBPVR has quit several times. I noticed that gbpvr.exe was consuming 800MB before it crashed. It also took 100% CPU time. As this was not working, I reverted to 97.07 and all problems have gone.
Any words on this leak?
