Hey, I just wanted to share something that might help a lot of people should the forum's search go wonky again. You can get a passable temporary search by using Google's "site:" operator.

eg. to search our forum for the word "video", you can go to Google and enter "site:forums.gbpvr.com video" (without quotes).

It works ok, but it should be able to suffice until the forum search comes back online.

(BTW, this works for any site. Just use the syntax site:any.url search_string

I like the GB-PVR music plugin, but it seems limited to single-directory access. That is, I can only shuffle or play music files seen on the GB-PVR screen.

I would like a "traverse subdirectories" option in the browser, so that GB-PVR would pull all music files in the selected directory and any subdirectories.

For an example, just take a look at Winamp 2.x.

Is there a way to backspace or delete characters mis-entered in the search field (w/o a keyboard)?

I've been playing around with the search guide text entry by using the Hauppauge 45-button remote's # keys like a cellphone in 98.8, but sometimes there is a lag between my presses on the remote and the response on the screen. This is ok with me, except that sometimes when entering letters, this causes a "letter timeout" such that continuing to press the button gives me another letter, instead of rotating through that key's list.

eg. When trying to spell "Prison" You would ideally have to press 7-777-444-7777-666-66. In some of these letter rotations, I might end up with "P-pp-i-pr-omm".

If there isn't a way, might I suggest using the Left arrow to move the cursor back, and perhaps overwriting the mis-entered character?

With 98.8, I like the "Video in a Window" feature, but found something - try to figure out if this is a bug or if this is what was intended.....

So, say I'm watching Live TV. Then I go into the main menu and go to the TV Guide. Can still hear Live TV playing in background. I pick a new channel in TV Guide, and click "Watch". I can tell the channel has changed due to the audio, but I'm still in TV Guide. Shouldn't it go to Live TV when I click "Watch"? Any way to fix this?

i noticed in this new release [.98.8] that it's supposed to let me specify the .exe for the transcoder in video library, but i can't get it to work,even with ffmpeg.exe! the only thing that works so far is leaving the exe="ffmpeg.exe" part out alltogether...[same as old way..]
anythoughts Sub?
i copied the syntax just like in the config-master.dont-edit-me.xml..
works fine with no exe= param tho so i know ffmpeg is ok..
and my old method of swapping still works fine too but cannot specify myself..
tried paths, relative,etc.. but no go..

With the Announcements from Apple yesterday (in regards to the "iTV" media convergence device, basically a glorified MVP), it appears that the PVR, Internet Television, and Digital On Demand markets are poised to explode. We know what the Ipod did for audio, now it looks like we may have a phenomenon in 2007 for video. It should be interesting to see what cool gadgets and software becomes available next year. Thoughts?

Hello everyone.

This is the problem I am having:

While recording a program, I am trying to watch something that was previously recorded (or the recording in progress, but from the beginning). After some time (it varies) the screen becomes solid green color. Audio is still there, but no video. If I stop the playback, and start it again, it will be fine for several minutes before going green again.

I am using Hauppage PVR150 card.

Thanks for any thoughts,

First of all, I just want to say that version 98.8 is working GREAT with my H2 MVP! Thanks!

Now that my MVP is fairly stable with the new dongle, I want to be sure to optimize stuff.

One item being the "pre-delay" settings. I want the channel changes to be as fast as possible, but I don't want any crashes. So I'm trying to figure out the best setting for the "MVP Live Tv pre-play delay" and the "MVP Transcode pre-play delay". I'm just not sure exactly how they're related, how much longer one should be than the other, and what reasonable settings most people have success with, etc.

FYI, I'm using GB-PVR 98.8, a Win-TV PVR USB2, MediaMVP H2, Intel Celeron 2.8 Ghz, 1 GB RAM, Ethernet connection to MVP, XP Home, Actiontec 1524 Gateway.

Any input would be greatly appreciated - either on this item or anything anyone else has done with a similar setup to make things more stable, reliable, and fast.

Thanks!

Maybe a dumb question but when playing a video and switching to the main page (getting the video in the window) how do I return to full screen video ?

The second is , when playing video in the main page window and then going to f.i. music library a small video overlay is drawn in the bottom left corner, still showing the video........ when quitting the played back video (hit stop on remote) the video overlay stays , even when switching from music to photo's to whatever. It stays there untill the MVP is switched off and back on again.
Is this a known bug or designed this way ?
