Just to know why.
If propt for resume is enabled RESUME is prompted sometime as button in the play screen, sometime as popup window depending on the installation (after a reinstall, from scratch, etc.)
Since I prefer to be prompted by a pop-up window is there any setting to perform to?

While for stop button, no escape, still erroring Sub.

Im sure a lot of us here have GBPVR running on servers that run 24/7. GBPVR uses only a fraction of the available CPU tme, the rest going to waste heat ( and CO2 emissions).
You can put that spare capacity to good use by running BOINC.

http://boinc.berkeley.edu/

BOINC turns your computer into part of a globally distributed supercomputer that scientists can tap into for research into big problems facing the world.
Projects being run include -
Climate modeling
Protien folding for cures of human deaseses
Malaria control
Search for Gravity waves
SETI
Tuning the new particle accelerator at CERN

Its simple to set up, free, and runs in the background so doesn't interfere with GBPVR operation. You accumulate credits so you can see how much you have contributed, and you can also join up with teams if you want to get competetive! It doesn't require a powerful system, If you can run GBPVR you can easily run BOINC.

I have been using BOINC on my GBPVR server and Linux web/mailserver for about a year without problem. BOINC is a background task so as GBPVR requires CPU and disk time , it gets it and you dont see any impact on the performance of GBPVR.

The only issue I had was with XDVD streaming to my MVPs, where the BOINC application and VLC fight over who has the lowest priority. VLC wins the fight so never starts when BOINC is running. My simple work around is to disable BOINC at the times of day that I am likely to use XDVD ( 3:00pm - midnight). and this can be scheduled in the BOINC manager.

So come on guys, you got GBPVR for free - so make a contribution this way and donate your spare CPU time to good causes.

UPDATED 1/7/06 - other issues have been solved and thanks to all for the help :

So now my two problems:

1) Switching between channels causes a 1 second play, followed by a pause and a loss of signal sign. After that, nothing more. Signal strength and quality hang around 75% mark. A simple 'back and forward' fixes the problem. I thought it was only for different transponder channels, but actually they're all on the same one. Wouldn't normally be a problem, but these two are one of the most used channels

2) Audio on an entire channel group is 'chipmunk' style, in that it just plays really fast. The background sounds SEEM to be playing normally though at times, but the voices are always faster. Tried many diff codecs and what not, but to no avail. I THINK it may be playing normally on a different audio track. My proper receiver allows me to select audio tracks, i'm not sure if GBPVR does this, but if it does, it may solve my problem. I've done a serach of the forums but can't find any info on it.

Hello,

it seems hard to develop from scratch a music pluggin with foobar as player so i would like to know if it exists a pluggin that allows to launch foobar application through GBPVR ? I had a look on custum task but it's not appropriate because nothing is displayed.

Thanks,
Fabien

This may sound kind of dumb, but how do you remove the scrolling text underneath the VA Panel of the main screen of the "Contour Blue" theme? See the attached image... Any help would be great! Thanks.

Hey guys it was wierd tonight,
I go to watch Mythbusters and I found out that it is rainbow colors and there flashing. Heres the catch it will stop for a minute or so and be okay. Right before it starts up again there is like video distortion. Heres the other huge catch....Its only on this one channel lol. Heres a screenshot of the rainbow colors.

I'm having problems with 2 functions, which I think are related to some issue with the overlay.

1) xvid and dvix playback do not work in GB-PVR. When using VMR 9, VMR7 or overlay manager, no video appears (e.g. if I'm loading a file using video playback, the screen stays at the file list but remains unresponsive until the non-existant video is stopped by hitting ESC). When using VMR 9 Custom, the screen turns black with no video playback. In all cases, sound is audible - so playback is being attempted but video is simply not being displayed on screen. Windows Media Player plays back the same files fine without problem in both window and full screen mode. MPEG video playback (e.g. pausing TV, watching recorded TV without transcoding) works fine without any performance issues.

2) When using Encoding Pass through de-interlacing, no on-screen display shows up (e.g. ctrl-g doesn't do anything, no channels displayed on screen, no OSD at all) during both live-tv and watching recorded TV (not sure if any OSD is supposed to appear during playback of recorded video). What de-interlacing method should I be using?

I am running a Pentium 4 with the Hauppauge 150. Video card is a nVidia GeForce2 MX 400. I am only using the TV out. I have DirectX 9.0c, and dxdiag.exe shows all tests pass. I am running Windows XP Professional.

I have read previous posts that deal with glitchy or slow MPEG playback, but haven't been able to find anything similar to my situation.

I have tried the DirectX 9.0b quartz.dll replacement, but did not find that worked.

Thanks in advance.

hey guys, i'm in perth

Running a DNTV Live Pro!

Now, i have managed to get all my terrestrial channels besides SBS and channel 9. Anybody know why? It works with the proprietry DNTV Live! program, and on my digital set top box, i can get both channels with a good signal.

I recall reading a long time ago, that channel 9 frequency had to be changed somewhere, but i can't remember where i read it, or even if it was for GBPVR ( i trialled ALOT of other programs )

Cheers
