Hi, I'm not sure if this is a function of my EPG listings (zap2it) or the guide itself, but is it possible to show the Original Air Date of a program with its detailed program listing data? (ala Yahoo TV)
I just started using GBPVR and after my first recording of a 1/2 hour show, the file it produced was 18+ gigs!? I didn't get to see if this even recorded correctly because the file was too large to load in a player. I have all of the settings for recording set at system default, and the recording was done at medium quality. Any ideas?
I am just at the thinking-about stage on geting into PVR, and I would like to know if (1) copying and playing subtitle tracks is the norm in PVR or (2) I need something special in the way of hardware or software, or (3) I'm just not going to be able to do it.
I prefer to go with a USB 2.0 product (I'm currently considering the Hauppauge WinTV USB2 and the Plextor ConvertX PVR PX-TV402U).
I've emailed a couple of electronics resellers but they all want a large minimum order. Anyone know where I could score a few of these things?
Alternately, I could just wire up an emitter from bare parts. Does anyone know if these Hauppauge blasters include a resistor, and what is the plug polarity?
At times I get an error playing file. I use Intervideo from WinDVD 7. Problem would occur with Intervideo from WINDVD 5 also. If I switch to Purevideo the recording will play. If I switch back to WinDVD 7 it will play.
I posted a couple days back about having issues with HIP Changing Channels being inconsistent. Last night I decided to install the newest version of GBPVR. When I completed the setup, I setup that channel changing to occur with the MCE 2005 IR Blaster Plugin. I had the plugin learn my STB remote and gave it a try. The IR blaster works flawlessly when scanning the TV guide and jumping to a channel for live tv.
My next test was to schedule a recording to see if the blaster would change the channel on a schedule. No dice. It seems like GBPVR never sent the command to the blaster. Very strange. Has anyone had any luck with this for scheduled recordings?
I'd like to avoid using HIP if possible and stay within GBPVR. I'm not too concerned with the MCE remote changing my STB because I can use the STB remote to do that. Any advice would be appreciated.
I've posted before and searched the forums and I'm getting frustrated with how volume works in gbpvr. When I fire up GBPVR, it's silent. If I press volume up or down (which controls the WAVE), GBPVR will then return to the correct volume on the wave.
Second, when listening to music, whenever a new track comes up, GBPVR seems to reset at the internal volume of GBPVR (which I have set to 100%). So at every track, the volume blares, and by just pressing the volume up or down once, it will reset to whatever the WAVE volume is set at. So if it's set at like 10%, it will quickly go down. But you can imagine, I don't want to go and change the volume every time a new track goes on.
I need help navigating and working this volume issue!
A few people have reported the MSI error that the file is not valid, please check blah blah blah. No one has suggested a fix for this other than reinstall windows.
I have totally rebuilt Windows XP professional. Brand new install on new partition, installed .Net 1.1, .Net1.1 SP1 and .Net2, plus directx9c and Windows installer3.1 and I STILL get this bloody error. GBPVR looks really good but I can't install it at all.
I have another PC and it installs fine on that. Could this be a hardware related issue?
Any help in resolving this would be greatly appricated
I was running 95.16 and lost the ability to display the TVGUIDE. SOmeone suggested I upgrade to the latest version 98.08. I ran the install, discovered I needed .net 2.0 so I updated that and reinstalled in the 98.08 over the existing 95.16 It completed with no errors. I started the config.exe and recvd and error: unable to load plugin list. Invalid connectionstringparameter for Password. and then references to sqllite. (I did not run the switchDB utility) After clicking ok I noticed I had to reconfigure my capture device, but after adding and configuring the guide params, I get an unhandled exception that continues to popup unless I click QUIT.
I have attached all the logs and the 3 error message screen captures.
