But only if i record using internal tuner, if i record using composite video all is great. And when i first time set up frequencies for tv all were working fine, next day theres no sound, i tried to set up both - cable and antenna for internal tuner, first was antenna, next day no sound, then i added cable(it was working fine) and suddenly antenna source was working again back - mpeg2 files had sound, next day they both dont work, antenna and cable have no sound again, however by using composite all is great.
When will there be cl/cam support for encryted channels with DVB-C cards like the Twinhan DTV Cab-CI and FloppyDTV. I live in the netherlands and all digital tv is encryted with smartcards. I'm forced to use the sluggisch Media Portal with does supports cl/cam devices.
The feature to press record on the library screen to download album art is pretty useful BUT it only seem to work when 'artist' is set as the main (left) window. It would be helpful if it worked with 'album' in the main window, as this would make it quicker to use, and would help when downloading artwork for compilations.
I have a few questions about what the MVP is capable of when combined with GBPVR. As the MVP is effectively acting as a dumb terminal for the GBPVR, I think, is there theoretically no limit to what can be pushed through, (Home network bandwidth allowing)?
I am specifically thinking of:
1) Internet browsing - can GBPVR just "push" an IE or, preferably, Firefox browser in a plugin - (I have mine in the lounge with the computer tucked away in an upsairs bedroom connected via 85mbps homeplugs and internet functionality would be great)
2) Playback Programs - as the only natively supported video format is Mpeg1/2 can the host system not simply run something like Media Player classic/Itunes and display the result on the MVP screen.
If I am fundamentally not understanding the MVP-GBPVR relationship then I apologise but could someone explain why such tasks are not possible? Is it just that no one has attempted these plugins yet?
I re-formatted my hard drive and when I install GBPVR config.exe crashes when it tries to launch. I have .NET 2.0 installed. Is there another program I need?
I'm getting very frustrated. I want this to be stable and useable, but every time I come home from work, the wife says, the "freevo" wasn't working again.
Anyway, I'm just having annoying stability issues. It seems like half the time when I'm changing channels, it goes back to the main menu. It's driving me crazy!
I have a 2.8 Ghz Celeron, Wired MVP Rev. H2, dongle 3.0.24088. And a WinTV-PVR-USB2. And I'm just picking up UHF/VHF signal from a rooftop antenna. Running GB-PVR 97.13. Win XP Home, SP2, .net 2.0, directx 9.0b, I believe my video card is integrated on my processor (I have an HP a410n computer)
My MVP is hooked into a port on my Actiontec 1524 DSL Modem/Gateway.
I've set my TCP/IP settings to static instead of obtain automatically.
Here are all my settings in Config and a log file where it returned to the main menu.
Please have a look, tell me if something doesn't look right or what I should try. PLEASE HELP!!!...

I'm watching live TV (actually its my svideo input) and push the record button on my remote. If I choose the option to record for a specific amount of time it records the show but the screen goes blank. I have to back out to main menu, go to xrecord, pending shows and play the currently recording show. If I remember right this happened when I was trying to record actual live TV channels too.
If instead I choose the option to record until I exit live TV, again the screen goes blank and it seemed to hang my machine.
I played around with some of the settings for Video Archive plug-in (3.0) to get rid of the "What's New" folder, and now when I enter the "Video's" area, the "What's New" folder is gone, but so are many of the shows from my video folder. I checked and the videos are still on the hard drive, but they are not displayed in the list. Even new shows that were recorded today are not showing up in the list. Is there a fix for this problem? I have tried re-installing the VA utility, but it doesn't fix it. I couldn't find a way to uninstall VA before reinstalling. Is there a way to do this?
