I hope this isn't already available, I've had a good look for this functionality and can't find it.
Most programming comes in series with the same title, and there are lots of series that you know you are never going to want to watch. Something as simple as a programme title blacklist would really save time trawling through EPG data.
I'm trying to set up GBPVR with my MCE Remote and its blasters. I've tought it the Sky commands but the channel changes don't happen. I get bounces.
Is there a way to alter the speed that each code is sent and / or editing the code file so that perhaps only the only code is sent rather than repeating the same code numerous times?
On the same vein, I have a USB UIRT but under the config section I don't see a section where I can tell GBPVR to use which of the 3 blasters it has.
This is my first post and it's not just a simple "How do I...", so please read on.
I have several MPEGs created by GBPVR from my Hauppauge Win-TV-Nova-USB2 freeview Rx that I've burnt to DVD using Ulead DVD Workshop 4. The whole process worked fine but I've noticed that I've lost some of the original MPEG!
If I compare a frame from the MPEG with the same frame from the DVD, then what I see on the TV is slightly zoomed in - I've lost part of the top, bottom and sides of the video. I'm guessing that is because part of the original MPEG is now in the screen area reserved for the front/back porch and teletext information.
If that's the case, then how do I get to see all the image? Is there an app that can add borders to an MPEG thereby forcing the active part of the image into the visible part of the screen?
Also, was this "border" not present in the original video stream - where has it gone?
I am not sure if the is a remote control problem or a functionality problem but when I am in the TV Guide I cannot just hit the channel number. I have to scroll to the channel I want.
IS this a feature that is not supported in GBPVR ?
I actually have a few questions about converting from mpg to xvid (avi) via postprocessing.bat.
I'm going to be recording 3 World Cup games per day in MPG (~3 GB each) and I want to convert those to XVID once the last game of the day is done with recording.
1) Does GBPVR take upcoming recordings into account when deciding whether to start converting when set to "ASAP"? For example, I wouldn't want my computer to start converting to xvid and sucking CPU when it's going to begin recording the next game in 45 min.
2) I tried to search for threads about this, but I didn't find anything that really answered my question. I want to use RenameRecording, Comskip, and automatic conversion to xvid/avi. Is this possible? What order should I do them in? My understanding is that RenameRecording (obviously) changes the name of the file so it should probably take place after Comskip? Should I do Rename Recording after I convert to avi/xvid? Or should I do it before?
Hi been running gbpvr for a couple of weeks now, this problem has only started occuring over the last few days, I have done no system changes. Sometimes when watching TV the picture will start flickering like a strobe light effect at a disco, but only on fast moving objects like people moving scenery is ok. I have to drop out of TV and go back and it is fine. This also happens in my videos when I fast ffwd but I dinf if I stop ffwd at a point it does this if i go forward again it may stop. I am running 97.07 any advice ps. all decoders/encoders do it and sound is always ok, not sure 97.09 will make a difference as this does not appear in the text file as a fixed bug.
I am currently looking for a replacement to MCE 2005 as GBPVR can use MediaMVP as an extender rather than me spending £200 or so on an Xbox 360!
I do, however have a few basic newbie questions before I take the plunge so to speak. In no particular order:
1. Can GBPVR handle 2 PVR cards (a 150 and 350)?
2. Can GBPVR use my MCE remote to control its GUI?
3. Can GBPVR either use MCE blasters or a USB UIRT to control the channel changes on my TWO Sky STB's?
4. As I have an nvidia FX5750 video card plugged into both my TV and projector (using DVI out for the projector), how well does GBPVR handle things like overlays, etc. as SageTV is lousy at this!
I've had my PVR system up and running for awhile, but was using it was a VGA to S-Video external adapter box. The output was a little "soft" and just not to my taste.
I recently updated to an ATI Radeon X300SE with S-Video out. The quality improvment is outstanding.
The only problem I have is very choppy video (Live TV with fast action) when I use VMR9 (either one) with GB-PVR. If I use VMR7, the output looks just fine.
Has anyone had this problem and fixed it? I'm using the latest Catalyst 6.5 drivers. There are quite a few options with the ATI software I didn't have before, perhaps there is a setting I'm just not aware of.
