Well I added a new drive to my system which required me to move the existing SATA drive (which contained all my recordings) to the second connector. I booted up no problems, the drive letters remained the same (I haven't formatted the new drive), I could see all the recordings in Windows explorer, but in GBPVR Recordings "Ready" there is nothing. Anything I can do to get them to show again?
I can't remember what the sertting is in config.xml that adds a specified amount of time to the recording window. It is used to make sure a recording that starts late wil still be recorded. It's not the pre and post padding setting. The default setting causes back to back recordings of the same show to be recorded when all you want is one.
I know Sub has mentioned this before but I can't find the thread.
How do I stop the OSD from appearing during Live TV when the mouse is moved? I really only need it when I'm changing channels or when I press the "info" button on my remote.
Hi,
I read in a post that claims the maximum MVPs it can support is 12 per server.
Is that a specific restriction imposed by the server or is it because the server cannot support more than 12 MVPs due to performance?
If it is due to performance, what are the issues with more than 12 MVPs? Is it due to possible jittery video?
I installed and have been running the latest version for a few days and then out of the blue, I get no sound in Live TV or in recording playback, but I do get sound in FM and NET Radio (I have the Hauppauge WinTV 500 card).
The recorded TV does have sound I verified by running them from Windows Media Player. i tried all the volume setting in the Sound cotrol panel, but all are up and unmuted.
Just spec'ing out a PC and I see that Windows Media Centre MCE operating system isn't much more than windows home. I guess I was wondering, if people have any comments:
- would GB-PVR run ok under the Windows MCE O/S
- if I'm getting MCE anyway are there any comments from people re whether it's worth giving it a try as the PVR software controller (I've been using GB-PVR to date and been happy, but just trying to be open minded)
I have dowloaded My Videos 5 Release Candidate 1 and installed it per the instructions below. I am new to this plugin so I don't know what I am doing wrong but shouldn't there be a MyVideos menu in GBPVR? I don't see anything related. I have installed the weather plugin and the DVDRipper successfully. I already removed the DVDRipper plugin since the MyVideo will perform this function so I have had some experience installing the plugins. Anyone that has this working please tell me what I am doing wrong.
Installation Instructions
1. Download and run the installer
2. Configure the plugin via the GB-PVR Configuration Application.
Note you MUST specify at least one "Virtual Root" item for the plugin to work.
3. Download and install DVDDecrypter if you wish to Rip DVDs to ISO
I've had GBPVR and theee rev H2 MVPs for about 3 months, used almost exclusively for ripped DVD playback (I have a Tivo for other stuff).
I typically rip DVDs to SVCD specs (480x480/192 MP2 audio) using the transcode function of VLC. Works very well, maintains aspect, etc. etc.
BUT..
I just can't seem to get reliable fast-forward/rewind or skip, either with or without providing the skip duration via keypad: The audio always gets out of sync.
So, I could use some advice. I want my DVD rips to maintain audio sync when skipping ahead on the MVP. And, I'm flexible. If there is a better transcoding method than VLC, I'm all for it, provided it can rip straight from disc to mpg.
I've seen others with this problem in earlier versions. I'm running .97.13 and I have not had this problem in previous releases.
I have a recording that failed in Recordings (computer was off during the scheduled time). When I click delete in the program information box for the failed recording, it sits there maybe 5-10 seconds and then returns to the previous screen with the failed recording still listed. It will not go away! I can delete files in the "ready" state with no problem. I've restarted the service and computer many times and no success. Logs attached.
Something minor I noticed:
In the GB-PVR Configuration General window, the forum link is incorrect. The text is correct saying
