What are the quality settings that everyone is using for their recordings, what is the end purpose of the records (i.e. burn to DVD or just watch on TV), and how many hours do people normally get per gigabyte?

I'm currently recording movies using the medium setting, but I can only record about 40 hours on a 100 GB hard drive. I am ultimately burning all of these movies on DVD. Any recommendations on what quality settings will still produce a good quality DVD and save hard drive space? I'd be open to some suggestions for custom settings as well.

Thanks.

I recorded a hockey game tonite and it didn't create a cuttermaran file. I want to run comclean and need that file to cut out the commercials. I was wondering if there is a way to manually create this file. The hockey game I recorded the other night worked fine and did create the cuttermaran file. I am not sure why it didn't create one with tonite's record.

Thanks in advance,
Mike.

In Music Library, if I select play all, only the first song plays and then the music stops.

I tried music box too, but it also only plays one song and then stops.

Am I doing something wrong?

Or should I use a different plugin for music? I store my music with each album in its own folder.

I haven't upgraded to the latest so don't know if this was done already or not.
Anyway, my internet provider recently had problems, thus I lost my connection for a day, in any case, my GBPVR also quit, I couldn't connect using my MVP nor on my PVR machine. I thought it was due to MVP servers but after a reinstall, it still would not work, until I decided to disable all plugins, then it started again. After some fumbling, I figured it was the plugins which need the internet that was holding back the initialization of program. I temporarily moved the .dlls and all was back to normal.

Plugins that caused me problems during internet interruption were:
Weather
Stock Ticker
VA Panel
Video Archive
News Feeds

Is there a way to just skip internet detection if it fails probably 3x or so.

Xshare is a simple client server file sharing tool that you can connect to your pvr or your friends. Schedule shows (if permitted) download and upload shows.

This is not a bug free release. It is to get people involved and curious probably not ready for the non advanced user.

Phase 2 will probably add some encryption, automation and maybe compression. Also perhaps mp3 support.

<Disclaimer>
This tool is not meant for pirating. It is ment for accessing your shows remotely. Use your judgement.

Source code for now will be on request. At least until it stablizes.

Have fun,

Please post bugs here.

1) Is It normal for whatever is being displayed like, the visualization to sit over a message that shows up. IE start playing a music file then click play DVD without one in there. The animation is above the message saying no DVD is in there. Is there a way to fix that if its a config issue my side?

2) Net Radio, Favourites is miss spelled dunno if its intentional or not ;p

3) While listening to net radio at the bottom there is a thing for Station: Genre : Song, but it never lists anything.

Thanks if anyone can help me ;D Im loveing this software, I tried a few other, but I think this is the easiest to use besides actually going to MCE05

Since I have upgraded to 0.97.7, I amn having problems with gbpvr not knowing when to quit. The two times it has recorded since I upgraded a few days ago, it would start a recording and keep going until it ran out of disk space. The last recording created a 30GB file. I am attaching the logs. The last recording was Tracks Ahead betwen 9:30 and 10:00 AM on the 27th.

Can anyone please help with this or point me to a link with the info?

What's the best way to set up two Capture Sources on a single WinPVR 350 card?

One is Antenna and one is Composite from an external Sky Digibox. At the moment I just have a single XMLTV data file which includes all the channels. There are approx. 5 on the Antenna and the rest (about 10) on the Digibox. Do I have to set up two separate 'grabbers' for the XMLTV listings with one data file having only the Antenna channels and the other only the Digibox ones? Will the TV Guide combine both Sources' XMLTV data?

I'm using an MCE Remote 2005 model 2A with IR blasters and I've selected that option in the Channel Changer section. Do I just have to change my Channel numbers to the three digit numbers used by the Digibox, and will the MCE remote driver handle the rest? I tried a quick setup and it didn't seem to work, although it did run me through a 1-10 and 'enter' learning process.

Thanks.

Hi sub!

I am now in troubles! Here's something i can't understand. I am using the NVIDIA PureVideo Decoder and get a CPU-Using by 100% @ playing DVD or MPEG-2 Files..., the crazy thing is: With the same decoders i can watch Live TV without Problems.

Now i tried to play the DVD's or MPEG-2 Files with the Windows Media Player (exactly the same decoder) i get only a CPU Usage by aroun 17%

I wanna say, that i am using an AMD64 3.500+ (2,2 GHz)...

What could this be, sub? I have installed DxVA so the main processing time should go to the graphicscard (which is working with Windows Media Player).

Don't say, PureVideo doesn't work with GB-PVR, it IS working fantastic @ Live TV (i tweaked live TV to maximum quality level within GB-PVR).

Could it be a bug?

Best Regards

I'm sure its here somewhere... I just don't know where.

How do you add an item to the Net Radio Favorites List using only a remote control?

Thanks,
David
