Hi,

Firstly I want to say what a great program GB-PVR is having become increasingly frustrated with the lack of compatible PVR programmes for my AverMedia A800, and its ability to be expanded upon with the huge range of plugins.

However having upgraded from 0.97.09 to 0.97.13 I feel I must point out a few of the bugs that has resulted in myself downgrading back to 0.97.09 :


1. Should a recording fail, any attempts to delete the failed entry within the GB-PVR programme does not work. Had to resort to editing the mdb file to remove the offending entries - lucky for me that I have Microsoft Access.

2. For some strange reason DVB-T connectivity loses signal strength frequently resulting in either a message saying that there is no signal strength or inconsistent jerky playback as the signal returns to normal and than back to zero strength.

3. Timeshift fails when I attempt to activate it having selected a programme through TV Guide.

4. Selecting Live TV returns a message suggesting that there is no signal.


I hope that this will help smooth out some of those nasty gremlins.

Many thanks for a super program and look forward to future releases.

Displayed last photo in a folder then MVP drops to looking for servers. Does this gbpvr.exe log snippet tell why??

I just bought this card, heard many good things about the quality, but heard the software sucks. I was hoping to use GBPVR with this tuner - will it work ok?

Thanks!

ps - WHY do no video cards have AM and FM?! I want AM Radio recordings, that would be awesome - but nope, only FM on everything

I'd like to update my power supply and I was wondering what the best power supply to get is, and of course the quietest, I need enough power for 2 cd drives, 2 sata hd's and 2 regular hd's, and about 3 case fans......

Thanks

P.S. and best prices??

Hi,

I recently moved and have switched cable providers. I am trying to set up GBPVR again. It was working perfectly before, but now Live TV has many channels that are just fuzz or a bunch of lines. The audio sounds fine on most of these channels as well. Previous recordings still play back fine... Any ideas? I just upgraded to 97.13, but it didn't fix the problem. I could have sworn that I read about someone else with this problem on the forums, but I can't find the thread now. Thanks

Hello there,
Ever since I upgraded to 97.9, my MVP connection seems to reset much more frequently. I have the MVP connected to an Airport Express that acts as a wireless bridge to my main desktop computer on which GBPVR resides. All this time everything was working very smoothly (I was surprised the wireless network was so efficient at streaming video). Since the upgrade there are multiple random resttings of the connection occurring.
One more occurred today (7/15/06) at around 9.49 pm.
I've zipped the logs - see attached.
A search of this forum revealed this - but it appears to be a somewhat different problem - http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php?t=17888
Any idea as to what might be going on?
Btw, I use dongle.bin
Thanks!

Heya,

You've all been extremely helpful in resolving my largest problems (timestamp and EPG corruption problems). Here's my latest problem....

Last night I left my PVR off so I missed two recordings. (Family Guy and Futurama) When I try to delete either of the failed recordings, GBPVR freezes for a few seconds as if it's doing something, but the failed recordings remain. These two recordings aren't such a big deal at the moment but they could become so if they start to accumulate. I am using the latest version of GBPVR.

Thanks,

All of a sudden, I can not playback recordings or DVDs. I tryed a re-install and keep getting a pop-up that says "Failure playing back file" every time I try. Since it is a re-install, there are no plugins.

Shows are still recording and I can watch them in Media PLayer. Here's the error log.

[ATTACHMENT NOT FOUND]

I'm trying to get GB-PVR working with my Hauppauge PVR250 for the first time.. I think I have it all set up correctly, and am able to schedule a recording, but even though GB-PVR claims to be recording, and then to have recorded ok, there is no file in my directory, and nothing happens when I select the "recorded program" within GB-PVR and hit play.

I'm also not able to watch Live TV. Never get any error messages. When I check the "recording status" it tells me my PVR250 is sleeping, even while GB-PVR claims to be recording (see attached screen shot)

I'm able to watch TV and schedule recordings fine in WinTV2000 that came with my PVR250..

The sticky said to attach a log, but the logs I see are over 300MB! I have logging set in "Debug" mode, so I guess I should set it to something else if I want a log to post here?

Any help would be appreciated!

Willy.

According to the contourHC docs there is support for the Homeseer plugin.

But when I run the Plugin I do not get an array of buttons, I just get s line of white text at the bottom of the screen that overlays as I use the up/down buttons. The text sits on top of the main menu screen test at the bottom of the screen - i.e. there is no separate screen displayed. In addition there is some random red lines in the extreme left of the screen overlaying the main menu buttons.

Is there a current skin for Homeseer?
