I'm new to PVR's and do not understand all the software and what not that goes with them. I am about to purchase a SAPPHIRE 550Pro PCI TV Tuner Card and was told that the bundled software is lacking and isn't all that great. Well, I ran across this software and figured it was worth a shoot.
My question is: Is this like MediaPortal Media Center or Myth TV? Will this delete my OS and run as the main system? I want a program that runs just like a normal application when I want it to. I want my OS to run independently of it and not even run unless I start it...... Could someone fill me in on how this software works.... thanks
I want to record "the daily show with John Stewart" every day. It is on several times a day. The new episode is on at 11:00 PM. It repeats at 1:00 AM, 8:00 AM, 2:00 PM and 8:00 PM (all on the following day).
I want to record each episode once (so I don't fill up my hard disk), but if I have a scheduling conflict, I want it record from one of the other time slots (so I never miss an episode).
I've just done a fresh windows install on my pvr, and for various reasons i cant get any of the .net 2.0 (97xx) versions working. Does anyone have an old version like 9608 or 9612 sitting around? I might play with fixing the .net/97.13 stuff sometime but for now i just want to get my pvr back online. Any help is greatly appreciated.
I'm a newbie here..
I just bought a Hauppauge 350 card and installed it along with the softwares it came with. I installed gbpvr and setup the channels and all.. Wen I run GBPVR, the TV guide works fine, but when I click "LIVE TV" I get the following message:
"Video is playing back using TV out. Press 'Home' to return to menu"
But no image appear.. I tried running the software that came with the hauppauge and It works fine and I can watch tv normally.. But not working with gbpvr when I click "Live TV"
ANy help would be greatly appreciated
got back home a week ago after a nice, sunny weekend in Yorkshire to find MVP wouldn't connect. Talking to the neighbours it seems we missed the 'great' storm on Saturday (so dark the street lights came on at 2 pm. I'm now operational again having discovered 'broken' MVP, on-board LAN on office PC, and 4 port switch built in to ADSL router. The only thing unscathed is the wi-fi connection to the GBPVR box. Not all bad then
I downloaded the latest version (like 3.11 I believe) and I'm using the latest version of GB-PVR (97.13) but I can't get it to work.
I add the directories I want to play from but I get :
"Error: Object reference not set to an instance of an object"
There must be something I am missing... my weather plugin and sports scores plugins went through no problem, but this one is giving me headaches. I'd really appreciate if anyone could tell me what I'm doing wrong as I find the MusicLibrary that comes packed with GBPVR to be insufficient.
i'm trying to get my local HD channels and i know they come through unencrypted from my cable company. i was curious if there were any cards i could use for my PC that could pick up these channels (hi def fox, cbs, nbc, abc). i've heard i need a qam tuner card... and i've heard there are a couple out there, but i don't know which, if any, are compatible with GBPVR software.
