For no reason I can find, when going to live tv, I get a black screen and no sound. It did record ok though. I ran a repair install and it did not good.
Just out of the blue it doesn't play live tv. Nothing has been done differently with the exception of the most recent security updates by MS......I hope that wasn't a mistake!
I think I've discovered a bug with Video Archive. When I change the short date format in windows to:
ddd mmm, dd yyyy
Video archive can't figure out the date and I think causes GBPVR to crash - the dreaded GBPVR.exe has experienced issues or something like that. I will confirm in a day or so.
I switched it back to dd/mm/yyyy and it was able to figure out the date of a new recording.
Also, what logs do I have to give you to show that it can't figure out the size of a file? I've got a 7 G file that it things is 600 MB?
Just installed latest version (v0.97.13) -- when I go in to define my capture source thru Config, I can't seem to get any channels to "stick". I can try to manually add a single channel, but when I click Okay, nothing is in my list/grid. Also, if I do the EPG update (using Zap2It), it goes thru the steps correctly (parsing, etc.), but then nothing in the list! What gives? This worked fine in previous version (actually, this is the same hard drive with a fresh XP re-install -- could something have been left over in my previous GBPVR folder that is causing issues?)
The reason I ask is that TinyXP rev 05 includes IE (a requirement for GBPVR?) and allows for SATA drives and WGA validation. The neat thing about TinyXp is this:
Quote:TinyXP Rev05 Statistics...
ISO Info...
ISO file size > 201Mb
ISO file size in bytes > 210,890,752
Files on ISO > 5,330
Folders on ISO > 176
Windows Performance Info...

WINDOWS folder > 397Mb

Install Time for Windows > 8 Minutes
Imagine how quickly GBPVR would function without all the normal XP overhead! I run GBPVR on a laptop, and I've been thinking about trying to set this up, but I was wondering if anyone had any experiences to share before I took the plunge, as I would hate to lose my setup since the only way to install TinyXP is a boot clean install - no upgrade option.
If I don't get any replies by the weekend, I might give this a shot - if so I'll be sure to share my findings.
Since you've been getting so much good feedback on the forum, both about the software and your support, how about for the redesign of the website you list some comments regarding the product, support and community?
I was having a problem that the comskip times were not picked up correctly when playing an AVI file. the files in question have been recorded by GBPVR and show the correct 25 fps when the mpg is played however after transcoding to AVI windows still reports the file as 25 fps and the file plays with the corect speed, but GBPVR sees the file as 30 fps causing the comskip frame numbers to be incorrect. I attached a log to illustrate what I mean.
I've been doing some research about the different version of PVR software available and have a question.
Is GB-PVR better than Knoppmyth and Mediaportal?
about a new "set-top box" development kit being announced.
It seems the developer and reviewer are not familiar with the MVP as this seems to be very similar in target function, with one exception... It looks like this will do Hi-Def via VGA output.
A "dongle.bin" will need writing for it to make it do anything though.
Starting LiveTV causes error: "Error: Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt."
I am using last version of GB-PVR.
I use Intervideo Video and Audio Decoders and Overlay.
LiveTV was working fine, and after some changes in the configuration, it stopped working.
I had a problem watching the Video files. The movie was displayed in small size (I think in the real size of the video). Then I pressed F7 key, switching the aspect ratio options and the Videos were displayed perfectly in LetterBox, Full, etc... (The Auto Mode is not working)
But after solving this problem with the Videos, the LiveTV gives me the error I wrote in the first line.
I am using a Pinnacle 310 DVB-T card.
I am attaching my config and log files. [ATTACHMENT NOT FOUND]
Thanks in advanced for your help, and thanks for this great SW.
