Has anybody seen this before, since I'm new to all this: When I watch a video in AVI format on the MVP there is a Hauppauge labeled overlay visible on the TV. It's positioned just below the center of the screen. It also shows a yellow line indicating some sort of progress.
Besides the fact that playback stops on most files after about 5-10 seconds, for which I have read some the threads here, nobody seems to have noticed this before.
As for my setup: I have a MediaMVP H3, using the dongle version 3.2.24125b, no Hauppauge MVPService installed. It doesn't matter whether I use FFmpeg or ZProcess, they both give the same result, always that Hauppauge overlay and yellow progress bar.
Ok, so I've run a search a couple times for this question but I never quite got the answer I was needing... So I thought I ought to ask the question I have.
Will the Nvidia DualTV EVER be supported by GBPVR?
I have been entranced by the reviews and quallity comparisons, and would really like to be able to use it. Sure, BTV and Sage support it, but I have a feeling I might get sick of those...
I wish I were able to sit down and go for a hauppauge 500 but the gamer/elitist in me says to never buy a card that is worse than the best, and in the same price range.
In an attempt to save myself some trial and error time is anyone using the same dongle.bin successfully on rev D3, rev E3 and rev H3 (not wireless) MVP's ? If so, which version ?
I set up a Dyndns.org account some time ago, all has been working fine from outside my network until about a week ago. It takes about 5 minutes after I input my password for the screen to show up (when it shows up) and promptly crashes. (Broadband internet connections at both end.) I am not using any plugins for encryption or anything. Here is the weird part.... on my internal network it works great!
Anyone ever have anything like this happen? I set up the "http" version of VNC (runs in a java enabled browser window) which also works inside the network, outside it just times out.
I am begining to wonder if the issue is VNC or if it is my router. I have a Netgear WPN824 RangeMAX router. Love the router, throws a WiFi signal a looooooong way... BUT if it won't let me in then something has to change. I have a couple WGR614v3's laying around at home that a buddy gave me, might give one of those a try this weekend. Also RDP times out and will not let me connect from outside either, from inside its fine. More and more it is making me think it is the router. Appropriate ports are open, and the router responds to ping and tracert commands.
Normally I am a Linksys guy, but went with the RangeMAX when we moved into the new house and needed a bigger coverage area... a couple of my buddies had them and were having no issues (which is odd for a Netgear! LoL) and absolutely loved them. I am wondering now if maybe I should have gone with a WRT54g?
So if anyone has experienced this with VNC or issues like this with their router, please let me know.
I thought that I had read somewhere on here that if you are watching a recording and stop it and come back to it later that GB-PVR either ask you if you want to start at the begining or where you left off? Mine always starts at the begining and doesn't ask. I'm just looking for confirmation that GB-PVR can do this, and if so how do I enable it?
This also leads to my second question: It seems no matter what I do, when I press Fast Forward on my remote it speeds up, but when I press it again (or play for that matter) it takes about 10 seconds before it stops FF and returns to play, but then I have no audio at all. Sometimes video is choppy as well, but not all the time.
Thanks!
If need be, I can recreate/post logs tonight when I get home for the second issue.
With this new upgrade, I lost the post processing capability. Previously, I had indicated in config that Show Analyzer would run congruently with the recording. Following the recording, the postprocessing.bat file would run and chop out commercials. With the new version, I noticed the other night that Show Analyzer would run congruently, but the postprocessing.bat file would NOT start afterward.
I change the option to have SA start afterward instead of congruently, and now it won't run afterward either.
It looks to me like none of the 'after processes' are being executed following the recording with this new version.
This is perhaps a bug or did something change that I missed?
This morning I installed the infamous monthly MS security patches. After the reboot my GBPVR 97.13 spontaneously reinstalled. Next I fired up Music Library 2 for listening to a random selection (Red button) of my music. It then appeared that the player did not start. I browsed through my logs but did not find anything alarming, except for the following lines in the config.exe.log.

It was only after the third reboot of the system that I could play my music again. However the nasty error codes remain in the log of the configurator.
Everything seems working fine again, so must I worry about these errors?
