I upgraded my previous GBPVR to v.98. Everything worked perfectly on the update (great job again Sub). I installed it on another PC and set it up as a client. It installed with no errors but when I try to run it nothing happens (it did run one time but I did not make any changes before or after). I have attached the log files.
jorm,
I've noticed for quite a while there's a bug in XRecord where it can present you with the wrong program folder. To explain:
Imagine that under Ready recordings, I have folders/posters for 8 or more different program titles. (And for each of those titles, there may be several shows recorded in those folders/posters.) So, on my screen I show 2 rows of 4 program titles, called them A1, A2, A3, A4 on the first row, and B1, B2, B3, B4 on the second row.
Now imagine I select B2 and then watch one of the recorded shows under folder/program-title B2. While I'm watching, a new show for a different program title (for which there hadn't previously been any recording, and therefore wasn't a program-title/folder) finishes recording. If alphabetically, the new program title precedes B2, for example, then on a new display the program title for B1 would be positioned where B2 had been. When I'm done watching my show from program title B2, and exit the menu for the show, I get mistakenly put into the list of shows for program title B1. In other words, XRecord seems to be relying on the program-title/folder position from which I started, rather than the present position of that title.
I think it also fails in the other direction. That is, if I'm watching a show under title/folder B2, and one of the alphabetically earlier titles has all its shows deleted so the program title/folder is deleted, then when I exit the menu for the B2 show, I end up positioned within title/folder B3, which shifted left because of the deletion.
Does the explanation make sense?
Just installed 150MCE(OEM), using gbpvr....installation went smooth.
i'm able to play my music and stuff but when i go to live tv, there is no video, it's just a blank screen with black and silver colors mixed in it.
Does any1 know, what i do wrong?
I am using existing cable that was ran inside my house that I'm running satelite and cable television. Well There's a spitter on the ousdie running in and it runs into the sattelite box and then out to my teleivision. Basically if I have the satelite on, then it bypasses the analog cable and if the satelite is off the analog cable is running.
The two questions I have is first how can I use the PVR to control my satelite box? I saw a utlity called directvcontrol, but I don't have directv, I'm running a diffrent satelite box. Second if I am able to control the satelitbox with the PVR, is there a way to select which EPG you want when you click on live TV?
I have had a hunt for similar problems but can't find any reports. The 98.8 ver seems to be no problem on the computer but I get strange problems on the MVP with the new dongle. When initiating the playing of videos and recordings the lower screen flashes solid green then goes back to the 'select' screen. If I re-select the vid/recording I briefly get green in the lower left small window and the vid then plays in this small window.
In addition, the above small window shows through photos displayed with std Photo Lib.
Looking at the gbpvr.exe log I see this:-
13/09/2006 11:03:03 a.m..281 VERBOSE [17] Initializing skin helper for: .\skin\Blue\video library2\skin.xml
13/09/2006 11:03:03 a.m..296 ERROR [17] Unable to find node: /settings/SpecialElements/SpecialElement[@name="ForegroundTransparency"]
Is this relevant?
Weird if I am the only one with this prob! The install seemed to go w/o a hitch and the config settings all look as they were before.
Sorry if this is posted elsewhere, but the search facility does not seem to be working...
I've noticed that the day, date, time information is being cut off. This morning on the main menu I got "Wednesday, 13 September, 7:25a." (or similar). Is there something I can change to make this field longer or...?
I have music and some movies stored on another computer on my network. GBPVR is set to access these files thru UNC paths (ex. \\Upstairs\C_Drive\Mp3z). Everything works fine locally from GBPVR but when I login with the web thingy built in to GBPVR I see the main "name" that points to these files but when I click it to access them it brings up [..] instead of the directories/files on that computer. Everything stored locally on the GBPVR box comes up fine over the web app.
This should work right? I'm not just crazy? Any idea what could be wrong?
If I edit the <BDAMultiplexer> entry in my config.xml do I need to restart the recording service or is this setting read each time a recording is about to start?
