I'm running 98.8b but had this problem in the previous version.
Problem: After a few hours of constant Live TV viewing, the video/audio becomes choppy more and more until the picture just freezes. Sometimes I don't get the choppy AV but the freeze right away. Sometime GBPVR will work well for several days. I'm now timing exactly how much "TV Viewing" time before it happens.
"Solution": In testing this problem I've found three things:
1) I can ESC out of Live TV and everything else with GBPVR works just fine.
2) I can Exit GBPVR and open Hauppauge's WinTV application and Live TV still works.
3) If I close the recording service and relaunch GBPVR, all is well again.
Troubleshooting: This is my 2nd GBPVR unit, unfortunately I'm using slightly different hardware on both units. The two critical differences are: 1) nVidia vs. ATI display cards, both using S-Video out. 2) different computers.
In working with this I had the chance to upgrade the CPU. I'm currently running a newer computer with a fresh XP install, latest nVidia drivers, and latest GBPVR with no add-ons save for the Volume plugin. I still have the same issue. The nVidia card is still there.
I've tried various combinations of MPEG decoders and audio codecs. I have the same problem with: InterVideo, CyberLink, and Dscaler. All with the same result.
I gut feeling is it's some conflict with the nVidia card and/or it's drivers. Everything else ad either been reinstalled or replaced at this point. Since I just rebuilt this unit this weekend I've just turned on Debug in the logs in hopes of catching something more concrete.
Hello
I'm new with GBPVR !
BOTH i have a Hauppauge PVR-150 (NO MCE) With Remote controle and IR BLASTER. ( I have a small sensor from my PVR-150 card ) To my satellite box.
My broblem i don't have a choice of IR Blaster into a config option .
Who have the receipt ??? For work with this card !!!!
During Live TV watching in timeshift mode, when I pause for a moment and then play, sometimes (mostly after pausing for several minutes) the GBPVR goes back 2-5 minutes. I have to skip/ff to locate where I paused.
Has anyone experience this before? It's not an issue any more because now I check the timestamp before hitting play button and use the number pad to fast forward to the original point.
BTW, this never happens for recorded shows. And I only watch ATSC streams.
I am using the latest release, with the Cyberlink mux from the Twinham (.2022) site. All seems to be working fine (i had lots of 0b recordings with .813), except recording often lose lip sync. This happens on LiveTV too. Testing the same files in WMP also shows loss of sync.
Any thoughts ? Is it just a dodgy mux ? If so, any ideas of an alternative ?
A coworker won a PSP off a Dr. Pepper cap and I almost convinced him of using GBPVR to record shows and transcode to PSP format. He didn't like having to place a PC next to the digital cable box to control it with the IR Blaster. If the IR Blaster had an internal transceiver that forwarded the signal wirelessly over RF to a remote 'beanbag' to the STB he would have gone with that and an MVP. Like a remote extender that X10 and Terk sell, but integrated. If they had something like that more people would go for a GBPVR or MediaCenter setup.
I've been using GBPVR for a while and think it is great. I have run into something of which I can't resolve. I've searched all over the forum and the wiki without any luck.
I have several "season pass" recordings setup of which I'd like to cancel. I can't figure out how to get them to stop.
I have just upgraded to 98.8b (from my previous 97.13). Conflicts were working OK before the upgrade, now when I try to Resolve one, no conflicting shows are listed anymore, so I can't cancel them from there. This is true of every conflict, none are resolveable.
I've tried emptying and reloading the EPG but it hasn't helped...
hi,
I have a clean install of GBPVR (newest release) and have set it to automatically convert all .mpg to DIVx between 1 and 7 in the morning however I go to sleep wake up in the morning and no DIVX movies have been created and they're all still mpg. am I missing something?
Is Hauppauge WinTV-HRV-3000 by gbpvr supported?
I didn't find it in the Device Type List. Is there a different Device Type that I can use, assuming that I'm only capturing Cable TV Channels? No Sat connected.
