Divx files (converted from MPEG2) now play full size with v 0.98.8. I have Hauppauge MediaMVP 3.2.24206 installed, and am using the new dongle.bin from 98.8. Everything is much faster too. Congratulations and thanks.

Now on the wiki site. From the change log:

2006-09-10 :

* Updated to work with release 0.98 of GBPVR

* Weather plug-in can now be used as a video plug-in. To do so add it to your config.xml in the VideoPlugins section. By default when displayed in video mode a small two day forecast will show up on the botton of the screen. The popup is skinable.

Hi All,

I've just upgraded to 9808 and I'm having a problem booting my MVPs now. They start up, all the big 'loading dongle' boxes go through then they hang with 'checking for network status'. Occasionally they will say 'the wifi device failed to init' and then reboot (my MVPs are not WiFi devices). If I replace the dongle.bin supplied with the release with the original one from 9713 then all works normally again (obviously this isn't a good option). Has anyone else experienced this or are there any troubleshooting steps that I can take to find the problem?

Any help gratefully received.

Hi sub,

I upgraded to the latest version last weekend. I really like most (new) functionality. Teletext and subtitles work now on my pvr350!

However, quite often gbpvr.exe crashes. I have attached two sets of logs of the two latest crashes. I don't have any particular activities that cause these crashes.

Do you have any clues?

Greetz,
MaBo

After upgrading to 98.8 the weather plugin does not show in GBPVR and is not listed in config (dll is in plugin folder). :confused:

hi !

I´ve written a tool for organizing discspace.
what for?
My girlfriend has a seasonrecord which leads to 80% usage of discspace and so my star-trek is not recorded.
:eek:

with this tool you can
- create users, asign them a percentage of diskspace.
- asign GBPVR-movie-folders to a user
- priorize the users folders


when diskspace is low, this tool searches the user, who uses more than allowed usagepercentage, then finds the show with lowest priority and deletes it.


usage:
spacewatch.exe [gbpvr.mdb:<full path & name of gbpvr.mdb>] recordingpath:<path where GBPVR stores the movies> [close]

e.g:
spacewatch.exe "gbpvr.mdb:c:\Programme\devnz\gbpvr\gbpvr.mdb" recordingpath:I:\pvr\

providing the "close"-parameter spacewatch performs one check and closes afterwards. this could be used to start this tool as posprocessing-tool.(untested)

have fun with this!

Wow, I just started having wierd Live TV issue, not sure what brought it on.
In some cases, trying to watch Live TV gives me this (attached screen shot)

I have two tuners (a Hauppauge 150 and a Cat's Eye USB 3560 HDTV) and am using version 97.13. At first I was getting this type of image only on the Hauppauge channels. All the HDTV channels on the Cat's Eye worked fine, and also all Hauppauge channels worked fine when using WinTV2000 to view instead of GP-PVR. I tried to take a screen shot of the bad view, but when I checked the screen shot image, it was black (not the green mulitple image thing). So the screen shot attached is actually from a camera.

Then I rebooted, and now I get the green screen error only on the HDTV channels and not the Hauppauge!

Sometimes there are flashes of the correct tv image, even when the channel is showing the green. For example, when changing channels, sometimes I get a flash of good image. Also, in one case, while I was dragging a window around the screen the image was good, but when I stopped moving the image went green.

I did update my ATI Video drivers recently (I have an ATI x700Pro video card) so this could be related, although I must say by doing so my choppy HDTV viewing has disappeared...

Would really appreciate any insights!

Also have attached the logs.

Hi there,

I am using an pvr350, and still have got troubles with recordings and the tv-out after waking up from standby or hiberation - even using the wake.cmd and the gbpvrwake!

I am thinking about buying an used pvr150 and another graphics card with tv-out. Any recommendations for the graphic card?

I have got an p4 1.6Ghz with 512MB of RAM! XP SP2

Thanks,
Dietmar

Hi there,

How about the PVR150? Does anyone know if this troubles are fixed with this card?

Thanks,
Dietmar

I have just installed 98.08 and it looks good, but I get this for TV Listings. It would be good to get a quick fix for this one as it IS a show stopper. Of course it could be my configuration, but it is with the 9808 skin unchanged.

Hopefully
Mel.
