Just to make sure I'm on track. Method will be:
1. install net 2.x
2. install new verison of GBPVR
3. run gbpvr... (?)
4. close GBPVR service.
5. download and unzip patch.
6. simply overwrite the .exe of the same file name with the "patch" file.
7. start running GBPVR...
I have a HP Netserver LC2000 with dual 1GHz PIII and 1 gig memory. I was wondering if this would be enough power to run gbpvr with 1 MVP? I am building this machine up as my web server, and I want to be able to turn off my main PC when I am not using it. I keep it running because it has my TV card and GBPVR running on it for my MVP.
My new server is going to have 6 36G U160 SCSI hard drives that are goingto be in a raid 5 configuration. I got most of the server for free, so I figured that I would use it.
I have to rebuild my machine and may be forced to use Windows 2000 rather than XP. Does anyone have any experience using GBPVR in both and if so, can you tell me if there are any problems with W2K or if it's just as easy?
Now that widescreen format has been implemented in 97.7, whats the chance that GBPVR could incorporate some kind of mechanism to override font sizes? i run a 43" rear-projection TV, which looks good with GBPVR at 800x600 with regular fonts. However, i'd rather up the resolution to the native 1280x768 and change to 120DPI fonts, but unfortunately GBPVRs font scaling makes things look a little messy. Is there anyway of preventing this oversizing?
All,
Hello- this is my first post to the forums. Please go easy !
I have searched the forum, but cannot get a definite answer to this question.
I am planning on purchasing a MediaMVP and a HVR1300. Can both the analogue and DVB-T sides of the card be used separately at the same time - ie record 2 channels at the same time, record one channel whilst timeshifting (ie live pausing) another etc ??
Would I also be able to record 2 programs whilst at the same watching a previously recorded programme ?
I have been manually archiving the movies that I record. VideoArchive detected all the programs in my s:\tv folder which are the episodic recordings. I move the videos to r:\tvmovies, remove the time/date info, and the folder, and update the database manually. VA did not detect those movies. What would you suggest I do to get it to recognize them?
My intent is to use this to archive the movies without having to manually update the database. I added the r:\tvmovies to the archive folders in the config of VA. Am I right in my thinking?
Thanks,
Matt
PS I love the watched flag! Is there a chance you could have the db connect string in the config? I converted to msde and it might be nice to migrate the Video Arcive db there too.
It may be that it is late, but I cannot find where to disable the recording soon info on the main page. I have scowered the config app and the config.xml with no joy. Please advise if it is even possible (I think I saw it once - could be crazy).
Hi All,
I am a novice of GBPVR but I am quite impressed by this SW and I would like to continue to use it.
However I noticed that some component of GBPVR access the Internet, even when you don't download anything from the net (e.g. when the progran has been launched...).
I guess that the GBPVR recordingservices and the main module are the guilty ones and this happens every time I start the program.
Can someone explain me why? I noticed a continous taffic from the sw, even when I was not downloading anything (content, music, film, etc.) from Internet.
Moreover, I discovered that at the beginning the SW accesses Google web sites (66.249.93.104 and 66.102.11.99) or famous akamaitechnologies server farms (195.102.11.99).
Thanks in advance to everyone that will spend part of his time to explain to me this GBPVR secret.
Ciao,
I had few tests now, played a video file, stopped, and then wanted to continue. I was expecting the "resume/restart" dialog, but it just played from beginning.
