I know that the ATI Theater 550 Pro is supposed to be natively supported so I purchased the Visiontek version to serve as a second capture card (my first is the PVR-350). Unfortunately, when I configure it in Config I got this error:
"The drivers for the device you have configured do not seem to be installed. Are you sure you want to save these current settings?"
Just to make sure I wasn't messing everything up I installed the included BeyondTV and it worked fine. What am I doing wrong in Config? When I try to access LiveTV while recording something with the 350 I get the error: "Failed to locate configured capture device." Any suggestions?
Hi sub, don't know if it is just me, but I am having key-mapping problems with the new music library version. To be precise, ctrl-y no longer queues music, and esc now takes me back to the main menu rather than back a folder. Gbpvr.exe.log file attached.
My scheduled recordings are not being saved. I see in a sticky that it's probably related to .Net, which I am currently repairing, but I do not know which logs to include in this post. Only the ones for today? The one where I saw the Object Reference error? Everyhing?
Hello!
(Sorry for my bad English, i hope Google can help me :-)
I have the USB DVB-S Box Opera. The Manufacturer is: Siemssen Elektronics - Hamburg - Germany There is no BDA Support and only the original Software will work. So i used the External Recording Plugin. I have the EPG configured by XMLTV and its working.
Now i have a problem: The original software "DVB-S1" will only start in the TV mode, i can not start it in the Record mode...thats not ok for automatical recordings. This Programm has EPG, but this ist very bad, and the PC and this Programm must be startet. In the main Directory is an "Scheduler.evt" All Records stored here. This file are "dekoded", no normal text is here. I load this file up, so anyone can see it.
Know anyone who get the Start Time an the Record Time from GB-PVR to this file ???
Information in this File:
Schedul Name: test1
Start Time: 2006-7-25-23:45
Rec.Lenght: 1:30
Programm: KABEL1
Filename: testfile
OK - This is related to WOL for MVP's - I have 5 pc's that are always on in my household (Some relate to a business). 1 of these is an SBS Server that is never in standby, all the rest go to standby to try and save power (And wear and tear). What I'm wondering after my reading about WOL with MVP's is could someone write a service that runs on an additional pc that listens for the MVP's UDP broadcast and then sends a WOL packet to your predetermined MAC address. This way I could leave the Lounge GBPVR pc in standby - when the software on my SBS server (always awake) hears the UDP broadcast from the MVP it sends the WOL packet to my Lounge pc.
I'm hoping 2 things here:
1) - Other people have this scenario of 1 pc that needs to always remain on and yet they'd like to save power on the HTPC.
2) - Listening for the UDP broadcast is easy and wouldn't require too much programming (or resources to run).
Another option is to buy a Linksys router or similar - write a linux firmware replacement that does this task - that way its a solid state device with low power consumption that could sit on the LAN and wake the HTPC on demand. There must be a very cheap router out there that this sort of thing is doable on?
I've just installed a Hauppage Nova-T PCI card into my AMD 4000+, 2GB RAM system, hooked it up to my freeview antenna on the roof and followed all of the procedures for installing GBPVR.
I do however have some serious problems which are going to bother me enough to regret doing the whole thing
Firstly, some of the radio station's channels audios sound rather like a Donald Duck record, speeded up, and skipping. This happens at the moment especially with TalkSport, 3C, Premier Radio, BBC 5L Sports Xtra, BBC R5 Live and oneworld - and the BBc Parliament channel on which I get audio but no video. After a while a bar appears on the GBPVR stating graphically that I have full signal strength, but zero quality.
I'm almost sure it's not a signal strength thing as I have 100% signal and quality from the Winter Hill transmitter, according to an app I picked up on the Hauppage forums.
Please help?
I have wondered if it's as a result of me also getting an unwanted signal from the Welsh transmitters.
Also a couple of n00b questions, as they say...
Please how do I record to MPG format instead of dvr-ms?
My EPG misses some channels, notably BBC ONE and quite a few others. Any reccomendations?
I have no other software installed of this type apart from GBPVR.
Now that AMD has purchased ATI anyone hazzard to guess what will happen next?
Will the theater 650 still come out?
Will we still see avivo enabled graphics cards for our HTPC's?
I have 2 kids, 5 & 6 years old and approx 300 cd's of cartoons in VCD and SVCD format. They don't seem to play through GBPVR. Is there a playback solution simple enough for my kids or are we SOL? I considered connecting my original DVD player and letting them keep on the way they were but my TV only has one input and my GB-PVR box is now connected to in instead. I'm really hoping I don't have to re-rip all this media to the harddrive... They play fine in cyberlink powerDVD but then I have to quit GB-PVR...
Silly question as I'm pretty sure I know the answer, but if I have a shortcut folder under my Videos folder to a file server on my network (either 100mb or gigabit link, not sure what my server is using), I should be able to browse and play videos/mp3/photos from the remote machine without too much hassle, right?
Deleted directories don't get deleted from the database anymore and show up in the recording list until they are "scrolled" over if that makes any sense. It makes the list look messy.
Also, is there any way to show archived recordings a different color? If not I'd like to request that feature. It'd make it easier when cleaning up to know which recordings have already been archived and which ones havent.
