Hi,
Finally upgraded my gbpvr machine to the latest version and I must say I´m impressed. Also the new weather maps looks great. But I have an interesting problem. msnbc has changed some of its location codes. That means mine is 13826 (Hengelo, Netherlands). But if I enter that into the weather plugin config it interprets it as a postcode, and thus shows the weather in Ouaquaga, NY. Even funnier is when I add my location throught the gbpvr interface. It shows my city in the list, but then gives the weather in Ouaquaga, NY.
Bought a third MVP rev H3, 2 others are rev D (both work well - no problems).
The new rev H3 has an orange Hauppauge progress slider when viewing any recordings.
I swapped out an existing MVP (REV D) with the new one to test it.....not sure if the MVP IS bad or a dongle bin issue.!!
Running 97.9 default "dongle.bin". Tried a couple of other dongle bins (latest from Hauppauge) same issue.
When I am playing AVI files The picture is in th eupper 1/2 of the screen, using ffDshow has no effect it seems. Has anyone else seen this issue and/or is there a fix? Thanks.

when I try to watch tv on my pc with GB-PVR the images/video is very bad quality. It flickers and doesn't run smooth at all. Sound is ok in comparing with video. I've read most of the topic in here, but nothing fixed my problem.
I've moved my GBPVR shortcut to point to a batch file, rather than GBPVR.exe - but windows, being the intelligent beast that it is, has changed the familiar little red TV icon to some nondescript batch icon.
Of course I can manually change the icon back - if only I knew where it was located......?
This seems to be rather illusive on the net. Most folks run through a file and when it ends, you have a frame count...
I already have one way, and that is to attack the text file from Comskip, and parse out of it the detected Framecount. But I want to get the frame count before Comskip runs...
I'm using VB6... Wouldn't mind getting it from ffmpeg, but can't figure out the switches...
So far I think GBPVR is great. As I've mentioned, I've got the GBPVR/WinTV PC set up in the back bedrrom dedicated to solely recording shows off the dish.
Now what I would like to do is be able to schedule recordings from my office PC in another room across my wired router -based LAN. I have been using UltraVNC to create a remote desktop and perform the scheduling that way although perhaps there is an easier way.
I've read about networking solutions but they tend to focus on watching TV across the LAN/web or moving the recording location to a central server. I'm not pursuing either of these capabilities. I'm also not interested in scheduling from an 'outside the LAN" location - simply from my office PC.
Searching for webscheduling doesn't result in too many threads and none of them address my specific desire.
Using dscaler filter in gbpvr
but dscaler looks much, much better - much more smooth, considerably less jittering - sport is barely watchable through gbpvr, yet through dscaler its absolutely fine...
How do i get those results in gbpvr? what am i doing wrong?
Having read about it on the forums, I'm now running a batch file to boost the IR.exe priority a bit to stop the remote slowly going unresponsive, and also to raise the resordingservice priority to stop my games playing ruining recordings - both of these appear to work well.
I've experimented with raising the GBPVR.exe priority so that live (preview) TV doesn't stutter if some process kicks in in the background - but it seems I'm getting the opposite result. GBPVE.exe CPU usage goes sky high and the TV starts going jerky. What's the issue here?
