Been running for about a year or so...no trouble. I havent recently upgraded any files. Havent had the need to record anything over the summer, so I was surprised the other day when I went into the web interface and found no TV GUIDE! Poking around, I found I could searech and find shows, and in the stats page it says: EPG Remaining: You have guide data until 9/22/2006 (4 days)
Same is true running the full UI. I manually refreashed guide data..no luck there.
PC is running XP Pro SP1, but with all the other updates (auto configured)

I'm using skype on my htpc with my Linksys CIT200 phone and whenever I make a call, the taskbar shows up on the screen (even with the force foreground option enabled). I would like it if the taskbar could remain hidden - especially when the phone rings or when I make a call.
This isn't a typical sleep mode request so please read on.
I never use my HTPC from about 2am to 12pm and I think that it would be nice to have an option where the box automatically sleeps at a specified time and then wakes back up at another time. I think it would help save power (and money) for a lot of people. I'm not sure if this could be set up in Windows as a scheduled task - so if this can be done, nm.
I've seen a handful of posts that show some users having to restart MVPMedia and MVPMediaSvc services after a power outage in order to get the GBPVR software to work. I'm one of those unfortunate few.
Is there a permanent fix for this problem?
As it stands now, I have a permanent Windows shortcut to Services on my Desktop in order to fix this problem. (I have relatively frequent power outages in my area.) I'm using the dongle.bin and trying to be as standard in my setup as possible to minimize problems.
Hey, i was wondering what the best format to record in would be, i ask this because i keep getting the message "Error: failure playing back file" when i try to play my recorded shows.
Anyone know why this would occur? When I setup gb-pvr with a monitor, I set the standby timer in windows xp to 30 minutes, and it worked fine (I use suspend to RAM which basically powers down everything but the memory). The PC would automatically start when GB-PVR needed to record, and sleep about 30 minutes later. Now that I have it plugged into my TV, with nothing else changed, it will wake up fine, but never go to sleep again. Any idea how to fix it? I have the GB PVR screen saver enabled but it was also enabled with the monitor.
Has anyone installed Timmmore's firewire channel-changer program without MCE? I downlaoded the firewire zip file for it but when I try to install it installation fails & it complains I'm not running MCE (I'm running a non-MCE version of XP).
Also, has anyone gotten the Timmmore program to actually change channels with GBPVR once was installed? If so, could someone please tell me the steps involved? I have a SA 3250HD box with firewire ports.
I'm not sure if this should go in this forum or the skins forum, but here it goes...
I'm having trouble with the XDVD plugin. Every time I attempt to play a DVD that I've ripped to my hard drive, I get the following error:
Error: An OLE DB Provider was not specified in the ConnectionString. An example would be, 'Provider=SQLOLEDB;'
Does anyone have any idea why I'm getting this error? Any help would be appreciated. I've attached my log files.
I am having problems getting GBPVR to work with my two different capture sources and was wondering if I may have it setup right.
I have an ATI 550Pro and have my regular cable plugged into the cable tuner and my digital cable plugged into my svideo.
I set up two different capture sources which I called Cable and Digital.
In the "Digital" source I added just one channel, No. 1 which I called "Video 1"
In the "Cable" source I have all my regular cable channels, 2 through 66.
When I go into GBPVR it shows all the channels I have entered, 1 through 66 but it won't switch back and forth between the capture sources as I change channels. It's always either my Svideo feed on all channels. Or my regular cable showing up on my svideo channel.
Any ideas how I can get this going? I'd love to be able to switch from cable to svideo by simply changing channels.
Immediately after installing this software (after installing all prior software, DirectX, .NET, etc.), I get the following error:

I continue through this error, since I am able to. I follow the instructions to set up my card, then click OK to close the config and get this error:
