The issue I am having is that a lot of the times, my second recording fails after the first completes. For example. . . .
I go to bed. . . My recording at 1am records fine. . . but then my recording at 4am fails. . . .
When I come to my computer in the morning, it is in standby mode and everything *seems* to be ok, but then my second recording is listed as "failed."
I am using the current 98.8b but I seem to remember having this problem on earlier versions as well thou.
After install the program i got this error when "config" is executed:
See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

Attached are the logs. Fiddled with it and Windows Master and Wave Out do not bring up the OSD. As far as I know, I have copied the correct files to the correct locations. Help!
I recently discovered I no longer have data in the tv guide. I have looked in the log file and the first nite it complained about not being able to lock the file for updating. Figured maybe that was because I was dinking around and troubleshooting stuff. So I left it for a no\ite or so and now it's complaining that data is too long for the field (I have included entries and the log file below). I am also enclosing some other entries I see in that file that look weird. It's like it is continuosly calling this function. I have also noticed that it doesn't like to come out of the screen saver. When I hit a key the screen saver logo moves but it doesn't go back to the program. I have to alt ctrl del and end the process. I can do everything else (live tv, weather, watch recorded program etc.)
Any help would be appreciated...
The log file is attached as a compressed file.

and here are the entries that look weird to me....this is just a piece of it, it repeats over and over.
I have been wanting a new remote that could possibly replace the three that sit on the coffee table but wanted something that wouldn't look too intimidating for everyone that'll use it, but also have enough buttons to do what I want it to do.
The Sony RM-VL600 fit the bill in more ways than one. The $25 price tag and the ability to control up to 8 devices and learn on almost any of its buttons is exactly what I wanted. The macro function is very cool too... the ability to turn on the tv, set the tv to the right video input, set the video mode to "movie", turn on the reciever and set it to DVD input, then fire up the DVD player and start playing a movie all with ONE press of a button is just cool... yeah, I'm a remote newbie!
I was able to disable the DeBounce feature of the MCE receiver (thanks to a quick search here) so it works great with that and I was finally able to disable Girder (about once or twice a week, it would peg the CPU at 100% and mess up some recordings). I'd highly recommend this remote.
im looking into getting a MVP but wanted to run something by any of you first
if i got one can i watch live tv through this ? or is it limited to watching recorded tv only ?
i have a P4 2.4 ghz processor - 250 gb hdd - 2x pvr 150's, and an ati radeon 9550 on my box im currently using to watch and record tv with -although its in a small case its still pretty ugly so thought of getting a mvp to replace it.
So, I'm going to switch to .98, just put .Net 2.0 on.
I have the PVR-350, do I still need to add in the extra files that were posted back in June? or so ( a while ago anyway) for the 350 or are they included in the .98 release now?
And, tips on installing such that I can roll back if need be are welcome.
I've never attempted something like this before. What i want to do is after my dvr-ms files convert to mpg or when recordings are created as mpgs, have them converted to xvid using autogk. I would like to specify settings for each folder. Some shows have black bars, or are 16x9 with no black bars, or are 4x3..etc....
So it would be like My Name is Earl is recorded as dvr-ms>converted to mpeg>scanned with comskip>delete dvr-ms>run auto gk based on settings for My Name is Earl folder>delete mpeg file>Have an xvid version in gbpvr database...
I'm not really concerned with having commercials in there, i plan on manually editing those out in the future...
Does anyone have or can anyone create a generic batch file for me to start off with and build upon?
EDIT: How long should it take to convert a 6 gb dvr-ms to mpeg? Its been running around 50 minutes and is not done. There is a 17.5 mb .mpg in the directory(which hasnt changed insize since it was created), and gbpvrconvert.exe is at 100 percent cpu utilization. Does this sound normal?
Thanks,
zach
