After install of GBPVR v98.8 with the new dongle.bin there is a flash and visible screen redraw of the plugin I'm exiting before the screen returns to the Main Menu. I switched the dongle back to 25_23207 and exiting to the Main Menu is normal again. With this dongle I still can get video in the panel. Is there any feature (stability etc.) in the new dongle to recommend it over the other? The MVP is rev D3A.
I just upgraded to 98.8 and when I went to turn on the MVP I noticed a few things.
#1) The Power button on the remote doesn't work, can't turn the darn thing off without unplugging it. Other buttons seem to work ok.
#2) The start up gets caught in a loop of "Your MVP is unable to detect your previously saved server on the network" and then displays Media MVP Preferred Server screen. It searches and then finds my pc and IP address. When I select 'ok' it starts to save settings then tries to detect all over again.
I recently recorded a show called "Psych" and I got a message "recording Failed".
Fine. No problem. I double click on that and it gives me two options - "Exit" or "Delete". I choose "Delete". It doesn't delete.
I manually deleted the shows and the directory from the record directory and rebooted - doesn't delete.
I did a file search through gbpvr and found the show listed in "recording-dump.xml". I know how to edit XML files - I write code for a living. So I carefully deleted the node for that show from <recording> to </recording>. Re-started the service. Rebooted.
Like i described above: All of the Advisor Themepacks from the new page (Advisor 2.8) seems to be corrupted. I downloaded a few of them and can't unzip any of them.
Please confirm, if it's a problem with the hoster or with my downloads.
Does anyone know about any dual tuner cards that work with GBPVR other then the PVR-500? I have the PVR-500 but I fear that I am going to have to return it because only one of the tuners works. Just want to know what else is out there. Thanks.
After the update I can no longer scan DVB-T channels on my Pinnacle 300i. I get a picture in the preview window, but the scan ends with no channels found.
I have tried to set BDAUsePsiParser to both true and false. In previous versions I have set it to false to scan the pinnacle 300i board and to true for my HVR-1300.
Is there any more settings in config.xml that I can set, or should I reinstall 97 dot something so I can scan the channels?
I used to have comskip and comclean working automatically last year but can't get it working with the new version of GB-PVR v0.97.13. My main interest is to record football games, have the commercials taken out, and delete the original recording, all automatically. here is my postprocessing.bat.
comskip %1
call comclean %1
del "%~dpn1_original.mpg"
after recording a program when i play the file in GB-PVR, there are no commercial cuts and when I play the file in another program all commercials are present. also, there are no text files in the directory where the recorded file is.
Just installed the latest version to find client functionality...That is soooo cool. Anyway, the Live TV portion doesn't work right. I see the service (on the server) and that it tries to play, but a second later the client dies with "Failure playing back file". Do I need to set the live tv buffer directory or something?
When I try to pause and then restart recordings gbpvr freezes. Also, when i hit the fast forward button twice in a row it freezes then too. I have to ctrl alt delete to fix it.
