Ok, here is the story, you tell me if the solution is out there...
I want to sit with the WIFE and watch DVD/Video on GBPVR in the basement (where the main HT is going to be).
Now, we have young kids, and they will be sleeping two floors above. WIFE will not sit down there, HT booming around, without knowing what's going on up there... and with our little precious having to stumble down two stories...
So, what I want is two things:
Voice Activated alarm (I saw RoboNanny - but it can't seem to trigger external apps)
Webcam
We have already two webcams upstairs, on two different PCs.
I can try Orb (but it won't run with same user on two streaming PCs...)
I need to be able in GBPVR to either quickly pause video and switch to the webcam(s) view OR (even better) to be able to have PIP for the webcam!! (tada!).
Am I totally crazy, or can I glue few apps and plugins to get to what I want?
All ideas are welcome
P.S When my remote plugin will be ready, I will be able to use it to pause and display a message on the TV from a remote PC (i.e. the one detecting highr level of sound). Nice, eh?
Mixman I am going to help shiningdragon make a theme and hopefully teach others how to do so as well. Alot of what I write here will change over time.
This is going to be for Beginner skinners.
The goal: Make this tutorial explain everything in enough "plain english" to make someone with NO skinning skill, to be able to try to make themes. This is where I was a few months ago. If anyone has comments, PM me or post in the comments thread so this one does not get cluttered up.
Once this thread is complete, I will make a .pdf file for the wiki.
Sorry for all the posts guys - just getting the hang of this....
Daft question but when playing music ( just using the standard srceens ) is there any way to go to the next track or prev track with one button on the MVP ? I can move via the cursor and select but thats it.
The two track buttons at the bottom just go to the first and last tracks.
What I don't understand is while the more complicated Dilbert one works ok why my more simple one won't as its fine with an RSS reader, My Space and a Java RSS plugin for my own web site.... am I missing some thing here - surley it would display the jpg when selected ?
Thanks in advance....

PS If I have to I'll play with my XML code I just thought that it seems to complicate the issue more...
After installing the Sports Scores plugin, I am getting an error with the Gmail plugin, per the attached screenshot. Looks like an error with gbpvruielements.
Is there a version that will work for both plugins?
I'm new to GBPVR and need to know if there is a way only using the program (GBPVR) and the winpvr 150 to learn the codes of the Viewsat (VS2000) remote to use the included IR blaster, without having to buy another product eg: USB-UIRT.
well i just got a new reciever sound system thingy, big massive speakers (8 in total) and switched to coax output instead of 5.1 composite output of my sound card. which meant i had to change back to my onboard sound (my sound card coax didnt want to work).
now i have a strange problem, my 150 isnt recording sound. and yes i have checked that its not that my sound card (well onboard) isnt outputing, the 150 just isnt recording any sound. my 350 is recording sound fine and watching timeshift tv or recorded tv the sound is fine. the sound for every file is fine, ive checked dvds, xvid, mpegs, movs, you name it, they all work
except my stupid 150 doesnt record any sound, ive uninstalled the drivers, update to the latest betas from shspvr.com .4 something, follow those annoying instructions of how to update the drivers, and still no bloody sound, its really annoying.
i really hate my 150, the quality is shit compared to my 350 (i love my 350 btw, its always worked for me) and its just been a pain in my arse, im thinking about replacing it with another 350 (250s are hard to find these days), but thats only going to be a last resort (after a format, i dont want to have to format my machine, i did that not 2 months ago).
so anyone experienced absolute no sound from the 150 for no good reason and was able to fix it? or have any idea what i might try to get it to work? i could ask hauppauge support, but lets face it, they're support sucks.
and whats the worst thing is, i missed an episode of boston legal because of this, its just not the same as watching it without sound.....
oh and its not a gbpvr issue, theres no sound from it in errr wintv? (whatever the crappy little app that comes with it is called).
ps anyone know if you can use the 45 button remote on the 350 IR reciever? (the reciever that came with a 34 button remote, if i switch i dont want to have to give up the extra buttons).
Have installed GBPVR in the past and it worked fine - had a PVR150 out for RMA - removed GBPVR and yesterday installed the PVR150 with its drivers. Card working perfectly - so I installed GBPVR. Get an error message during the install. Box - Error 1904 - Module C:\Program Files\devnz\gbpvr\GBPVRWriter.ax failed to register. HRESULT -2147010895. Contact your support personnel.
Any ideas or fixes. Deleted DEVNZ directory - still get the error. If I ignore it will return another error about GBPVRFlowStatus.ax.
