As a new user of GBPVR I stumbled over the webviewer plugin and installed it with high hopes.
Normal it has not been a problem for me to install and use the plugins available, but in this case I could not get webviewer to work. Well...
It's listed. It opens my favorits. And it display the web page. But... after 2 sek. the GBPVR returns with an error.
"GBPVR.exe has encounted a problem and needs to close"
That's it.
No matter what kind of link I'm testing, it's the same problem.
Well except the .form's installed together with webviewer.
Have tried updating with all sources that are mentioned on set up pages, but can't get itv listings, can any body help with this issue, or has anybody else, had the same problem.
many thanks to anyone who can help
GBPVR has been working well for us for a few months. Or system is not high spec (I recently upgraded the ram from 256MB to 768MB) but has been coping well until recently.
Over the last couple of weeks we have found that LiveTV (and occasionally playback of existing recordings) will stutter when the PVR's hard-disk is accessed from another PC. This occurs even when I use Windows explorer to view the contents of the disk - and becomes much worse if I try to read from / write to the disk.
As this is a new problem, I'm thinking that it must be related to the system's growth or its ongoing use; perhaps the disk is becoming too fragmented? or is there a database or other system file that might be slowing things down as it grows? (This sort of cause seems more likely than an issue related to codecs or DirectX version).
Just a quick question. When I record a show and then play it back it appears in letterbox, not full screen like when I just watch tv. Can someone explain why this is (I think I understand, but just a confirmation would be helpful) and let me know if there is a way to force it fullscreen on my tv?

Over the last year or so I've seen several posts requesting a plug-in to enable timed recordings of NET radio programs. I too wanted to capture radio programs not available in my area (Glenn Beck comes to mind). I stumbled on http://www.mp3vcr.com, which does just that. You can get radio stations from Shoutcast or "Spin365", which I hadn't previously heard of. I'm not a programmer, but had no trouble since there is a great tutorial which fully explains how to set up a command line and add it to your scheduled tasks. I capture the mp3 in the same file as my music library, so I can listen to it over one of my MVPs. A word of caution, though; I was surfing the Spin365 stations and got a virus alert, so you might want to stick with the Shoutcast stations.
Best of all: Its free! It actually works much better than one of the paid programs ("Internet Radio Recorder") that I've tried.
How about do extend the reading-capabilities of your nice Library-Plugins? As an example:
I am using mostly the Video Archiv originally from GB-PVR (because the nice other plugins are primarely for USA/GB and not fully suitable for my region).
Often i habe 2 Problems: The sorting order (which you would redone some day) AND the reading (much to less space on iconview-mode for reading).
So my idea is the following. All of my recorded/ripped series are formatted like this:
S01E001 - TitleName.avi
S01 = Staff, E001 = Episode, TitleName should be clear.
My thoughts now are, that GB-PVR is able to read the first letters till the "-" of the filename, sort and hide this part of the name. The rest of the filename "TitleName" should be displayed in normal and iconview.
Something similar could be done for the audio- and photolibrary too, or not? I am not a programmer, so i don't know if this were much work, or even done with a simple ".ini, .xml" or something like this. I would be very grateful to you, if you could integrate something like this.
Ah, and one thing more: Is it possibile to use different Pictures for the Icon-Folders, or the background of a specific File-Folder?
Let's say: Folder Simpsons has it's own Simpsons wallpape, while Battlestar Galactica has it's own one. Just an idea, and not so important to me, than the above one
