I have a pile of zero-length files in my GBPVR folder. They are named after some of my recordings (but not all). All the above are reoccurring recordings but it has done it on occasion for non-reoccurring recordings. Is this correct?

BeyondTV has this feature, and I really like it.

Could you add a checkbox to the Configuration section that requires a confirmation (i.e., the enter or play button) or a delay (5 seconds) to change channels via the Channel Up / Channel Down buttons?

i.e.: Pressing the Channel Up or Channel Down buttons brings up the mini-guide on the bottom of the screen with the Channel # and Show Information. However, the current channel doesn't actually change until I hit the enter/play button, or until after 5 seconds w/o further pressing the Up/Down button.

I prefer this method of surfing channels as opposed to bringing up the full TV Guide Matrix.

Currently, GBPVR immediately changes the channel via the Channel Up/Down button.

Thanks,
Dan

P.S.: Great work Sub, I sent in a donation last week!

Hi All,

I've reinstalled my GBPVR from a clean install and currently using the default music library.

When I press stop, the sound goes to half speed. I have to stop by pressing stop in the music library menu.

Now, I know there was a post on this before but I can't seem to find it. I think there was a solution as well. So, if anyone can find it for me I would greatly appreciate it. If not, I'll wait a day then post a log - I'm currently at work.

PS, the new version kicks butt...it loads up so much faster than before.

Thanks,
Jam.z

I have been using SAGETV. Somehow the database file in it got corrupted. So, I am trying GBPVR. I have several tv shows recorded from SAGETV. How do I get them to show up in my list of recorded shows on GBPVR?

Also, with SAGE if you stopped watching a program and came back to it later, it would be in the same spot where were were last on the show. It looks like GBPVR always reverts back to the beginning. Is there a plugin or other means to change this to where it would return to where you last were in a program?

Thanks.

Brent

Hi

Forgive me if this is the wrong place to post this, or if the question is stupid/answer is obvious, but I'm very new to this and struggling to work my way through it.

I've installed version 0.97.13, I have a AF9005 BDA device which when I use it with blaze or arcsoft I can tune to 64 channels. When I try to tune with GBPVR I only get 1 (BBC7). Is there anything obvious that I'm doing wrong?

Thanks in anticipation.

Hello, there..

I should stress that I'm a complete newbie at this PVR lark, so be gentle :-)

I'm the computer technician for a large High School in Scotland. We have just installed a (fairly expensive) Freeview streaming system made by a company called Exterity (http://www.exterity.co.uk).. Basically, a small server with a couple of tuner cards allows any Freeview channel to be watched on any client PC by broadcasting each channel as a multicast stream (as in, each channel has its own unique multicast address)..

On the client PC, a small app listens for the SAP announcements and displays a list of channels available. That app then simply passes the channel parameters to VLC (or Media Player if preferred)... You can also right click and select Record, and it will record rather than view the broadcast channel.

What I was looking for is something to help my colleague out. He is responsible for recording certain (Educational, natch!) TV shows for certain departments. Up until now, he's been relying on a series of VHS recorders. I figure there should be some way to use this new multicast TV system where he can specify something along the lines of "between 8am and 9:30am every Monday, record channel x" - in other words, a PVR..

Now this is where I get confused... Each and every PVR software I've looked at implies (or seems to?) that the client PC has the tuner cards installed. Which is obviously not the case here. Does anyone know of ANY PVR application which supports listening for multicast broadcast details? As opposed to viewing via a card?

I know it's possible, as the company showed me a quick demo of their WIP not finished yet PVR, which they said was based on Showshifter(?)..

Sorry if this is all terribly vague - I hope you grasp what I'm getting at :-)

I have a much better computer collecting dust doing nothing.
If I wanted to put my tuners in it and make it my GBPVR box, what needs to be done??

after I swap the tuners/decoder card and deal with those drivers and load on GBPVR, is it as easy as putting the config.xml and gbpvr.db3 onto a usb drive and walking them over??

if that is it, then I just need to figure out where the rectracker records are held.


asking now because tommorrow only 1 show scheduled, and I dont mind if I miss it.

I've tried other pvr software and it doesn't seem to happen.

Is there someway to specify what gb-pvr should do at the end of a video?

Hi-

I am new to the world of PC TV. Is GB-PVR compatible with the Kworld ATSC-310 USB, and if so, how in the heck do I set it up?

Been working on it for quite a bit now- pardon me getting a little punchy.

Thanks for your help!

I've been chasing down a performance issue (100% CPU Utilization with gbpvr, while it's 50% with winTV and is much less jerky). I found a thread(Dissappointing MPEG2 decoding) indicating running cxdiag, which I did, and I went through some of the optimizations in the dxdiag menus.

After this, when I try to load gbpvr, I get a message: Error: External component has thrown an exception. No codes, no stack trace, nothing. Is there a log that can help me get a handle on this, do I need to remove the program and reinstall, or what? WinTV still works fine, so I'm not thinking the hardware is not working.

Any ideas from the wizards?

Thanks,
