I just installed GB-PVR and it seems to work fine, but there is no sound. I've checked the system levels and all of them are up. I've also tried fiddling with some of the settings in the config program. Namely the audio decoder and audio renderer settings. Nothing has worked so far. Any idea? Thanks in advance.

I have a ATI X1300 that I am borrowing to campare to my Nvidia 6200. I am thinking about switching to overcome the Nvidia corrupted aspect problem mentioned on several threads here. I am having one problem and am looking for some input. I am using component output to my tv and am unable to find any option in the Catalyst Control Center to adjust the screen position. The pitcure is shifted to the left and up slightly causing a black bar aroud the edges. I do see the option when the adapter is set to standard tv output but not component out. Is this even an option for this like there is with nvidia.

Thanks,
Jeff

Does anyone know of a custom controls library for Windows UI applications (not GB-PVR) which is free to use?

An example would be nice looking (3D-effect perhaps) rotary or slider style volume knobs. Virtual LEDs that 'light up' to show when the user has pressed a button. That sort of thing.

Cheers,
Brian

Hi all,

Running GB-PVR 97.9, pushing the video out to a (wired) MVP. Since the DVD drive on the pc is much less sensitive to scratches than the player in the living room, thougth that I would give xDVD a shot. Installed the VLC player, then xDVD (modified settings.xml to point to dvd drive). When I try to play anything thru it, I get "An OLE DB Provider was not specified in the ConnectionString". Tried ripping the dvd to the drive and running it off the folder and get the same error.

Appreciate any suggestions.

Hi ! I'm trying to schedule recording for S-Video input with my ATI Theater 550 Pro, but just can't find out how to... I managed to get the Live TV working and it looks and sounds great. But since EPG is not relevenat to the source I'm intersted (Korean Satellite Settop), I need to manually schedule the recordings on a daily basis, recording time and possibly the bitrate for each recording.

It seems obvious that there's no menu for doing this, and thus I need to provide the schedule in some way, but how ?? I'd highly appreciate if somebody could shed light on this issue.

Many thanks,

Hi,

I have tried a Gigabyte 6600 connected to my LCD TV with varius inputs...

1) VGA @ 640 x 480 (native res of LCD)
2) Component @ 720 x 576 progressive - 576p
3) Component @ 720 x 576 interlaced - 576i
4) SVideo @ 720 x 576 interlaced - 576i

The two progressive options (1 and 2) give a great picture (with component looking the best to me) but I notice minor de-interlacing issues with some scenes.

When I use the interlaced outputs (3 and 4) I get good playback initially but after a while trails start to appear on any movement. Sometimes this also happens if you jump forward or back or use pause... but the same buttons can get everything running smoothly again.

I really want to use the component output interlaced and set the PureVideo decoder to film mode (no deinterlacing) as this gives me the best picture.

I read this post http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php?t=15673 where someone is trying to do the same and noted Csy's comment at the end of his first post that "the TV-out encoder chips on Nvidia and ATI video cards appear to free-run, resulting in periodic dropping or gaining a field. The problem is each field slip results in swapping the field order presentation to the SDTV, therefore resulting in double-difference interlacing jaggies seen on the TV when motion occurs. So this shows up as say 2 minutes of smooth motion then 2 minutes of juddering motion, repeating."

This seems exactly what I am seeing here. Does anyone else successfully run the SVideo or Component interlaced outputs to a TV?

Many thanks
Simon

I have just started using the web admin feature but for some reason i can not change the username or password on the misc tab in gbpvrs config. It just keeps going back to the old username & password.

I am using 0.97.9 version of gbpvr with the version of web admin that gets installed with it.

Cheers Jase

Hey guys - anyone know anything about that new freeview cable NZ are getting - how will this affect the standard tv tuner cards we have here in NZ ? ie pvr 150's etc

The Web Admin seems to be very generic looking after recently upgrading to v0.97.9. It looks as though it is not honoring any of the css and not getting any of the colors/fonts/images right. I am sure it is something I have done, but I'm hoping someone can help.

I did also install the EnhancedWebAdmin using the instructions from the wiki. I have tried deleting everything in the \web directory except for the \web\bin folder and unzipping the EWA into the \web directory and it still does not fix it.

I'm attaching a jpg of what it looks like.

P.S. other than that, I'm really jazzed about v0.97.9 - thanks Sub!

Is there a way to control the netradio station picture that appears when you go back to the main GBPVR menus.

Thanks,
Greg
