I personally would enjoy to see a roadmap of future updates to gbpvr. I'm mostly just curious as to what your going to do when you release version 1.0. Are you planning a big thing? What are some major things yet for you do integrate/update/fix in GBPVR yet? When can we expect 1.0?
I'd like to know a little where GBPVR is going.
Although judging by most of your post sub, your pretty secrative, so I'm guessing not much will be revealed...Thats why this I posted in Wishlist!
I'm not sure if this falls under the "Support" section cuz I think I read somewhere that editing irremote.ini is not supported by the devs, but here it is anyway.
After 3 hours I finally managed to get my power button to work. (I'm using the Hauppauge 40something buttons). But now I want to have it quit GBPVR while pressing it.
So I went to [GB-PVR] and changed the default value of POWER={f12} to POWER={alt}{f4} and it did not work. I also tried POWER={alt}f4.
Is it something else? Is there a way or it just wont work?
Please understand that I am a complete noob with anything video related. I bought the Hauppauge WinTV-PVR 150 (non-mce) 3 days ago, found out about the immense power of GB-PVR yesterday, and spent about 4 hours just to get the power button working (tweaking the irremote.ini file).
I love fixing things... I just don't know what to look for!
Before 9713, all recordings were successful. Since installing 9713, about half of my recordings fail leaving two 6Kb files in the folder.
This afternoon, I recorded a bunch of programmes to try and find a pattern. All that I found is that after a recording had failed for a channel then subsequent recordings on that channel also failed.
All that I can find in the logs is that recordings that work have:
I'm loving the new version. It seems much faster in some respects, and I think the SQLite is going to make a difference. I'm really really enjoying GB-PVR and I appreciate all the work that has gone into it so far!
Is there any way that I can add my own video files to the "Recordings" section of GB-PVR? For instance, I like to watch Pure Pwnage, a "TV show" that is only featured on the internet. I know that I can just put it in my Video Library directory, but I think it would be cooler to have it in the recordings section as a TV series with dates, synopsis, etc. Is there an easy way to do this? Is there a not-so-easy way to do this?
Also, I would like to be able to get this show (and shows like it) directly onto my GB-PVR without having to use a jumpdrive/CD, and without having to plug in the keyboard & mouse on my dedicated GB-PVR box. Is there some sort of torrent plug-in, or even a "My Programs" friendly torrent client that I can use to fetch torrents from (legal) sites like PurePwnage.com, BitTorrent.com, RocketBoom, etc?
If not, is there some sort of guide to programming plug-ins for GB-PVR? Any tips?
What about YouTube? Any idea how to make that work with GB-PVR (again, remote control only)?
I'm trying to upgrade my dual PIII system to a P4 with a intel SE7210 server board I picked up recently.
When I put my PVR150 in the PCI32/33 slot the system works fine but when I put it in the PCI-X,64/66 slot the system will not power up. The other boards I have that can plug into the PCI-X slots work fine with the system, but the PVR150 brings everytrhing to a halt.
This would not be so much of a problem if i didn't have a couple boards that allready need the PCI32 slot.
Through this forum, the GBPVR Wiki, and Google, I've been able to get my PVR500MCE installed and configured (and properly I believe). My problem is that I cannot get any picture to show up on the screen when I go into A) LiveTV, or B) if I select a show from the guide and click "watch", all I get is the screen to briefly (this occurs in about a second) flash some gray and black stripes on the screen, and the screen returns to the main menu. Any ideas? I've attached all the logs I found if it helps. Here is the setup: AMD 1ghz, 1gb Ram PVR500MCE, ATI Remote Wonder II, Jaton Video-228PCI-TV Video card, Windows XP Pro. I have a Directv SD-HBH set top box connected to the PVR via the Coax cable from the STB to the TV in connection on the PVR500. I have configured GBPVR for two tuners, 1 PVR500 W/FM tuner and one without, and assigned each tuner a different board number (Capture Device 1 & Capture Device 2). I hope I have provided enough info for everyone. Please feel free to ask more questions if I have not. I believe this is the only obstacle holding me up rrrrrrr!!
For the last couple of weeks I have noticed a strange problem when looking through my recorded shows. For example, when a show is one hour long it will display (on the player while playing through GB-PVR) that it is 41 minutes or so. If I look at the file size it is roughly the same size as a one hour show should be but while being played the time shown is incorrect. By the way, it does record the entire 1 hour program, even though it says otherwise.
I was using a VIA EPIA Nehemia 1GHz motherboard with a Hauppage PVR350 and GBPVR for several months. There were the painful occasional ~weekly complete freeze-ups due to the reported imcompatibilities, and you could not watch live TV as it would freeze within 2 minutes, but now it seems to be dead for good, Windows XP won't boot, not even in Safe mode (after wife hit the rest button after another freeze-up shall I add...)
So, unless you guys know of a solution to the incompatibility problem, rather than rebuild this system, I am thinking on buying a new video capture/playback card. Can anyone recommend one that works well with that VIA motherboard and with GBPVR, and that has hardware mpeg decoding (the processor is too slow to do it in software)
An alternative is another low-power motherboard. I love that the VIA motherboard uses only about 40w.
I don't know what changed, why now, but now everytime I run EPGExtra it crashes with "EPGExtra has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience".
Any ideas? nothing in the EPGExtra.log, except that it started.
