Just to let you know that I have updated this skin to the 97.7 version on the wiki. I have had a few problems with the latest GB-PVR release, so am personally currently running only with the standard blue skin and without plugins etc. until everything is fine, which is why the update has taken this long.
The skin update should work OK, as I have duplicated all of sub’s latest skin changes, but if any of the plugin skins don’t work perfectly, let me know.
I was running 96.12. I probably should have left well enough alone. But I upgraded to 97.7. Comskip quit working. (I installed the fix.). Also, the menu would lock up. I would not be able to navigate on the TV. So I uninstalled 97.7 and reinstalled 96.12. Now config.exe gives an error and will not start. GBPVR and the media server will not start as well. I am not concerned about saving my database and config.xml file. I wouldl be glad just to start fresh. What needs to be cleared out in addition to uninstalling the product. I am installling in new directories so there is nothing left over.

if you change your folder that your recording to in the config it asks you weather you would like to copy all your shows to the new folder and update the deatabase.
In the past when I wanted keep a show I would edit out the ads. I would open my editor program point to my show the HDD would grind for about 5min then the mpg would show up in the editor. This would happen with any show that I recorded with GBPVR. The other night the recording computer was not powered on and I missed LOST so with 10min to spare I dragged the comp into the living room. And hooked the cable boxes SVHS and audio out to the PVR-150's input. I
used wintv2000 set it to DVD high quality 12mbps hit record and went to bed. Well in the morning I stopped the recorder the file was 36.5gigs. I opened the editor pointed it to my 36gig file and it opened in the editor window INSTANTLY!
I shut down the editor and re-launched it and pointed it to a 30min show that GBPVR recorded and it took 5min to get it to show up in the editor window. I am not bitching about GBPVR just wondering if GBPVR creates MPG's differently than wintv2000.
hi, im pretty new but i like to think i have some idea what im doing...
when i attempt to connect to the zap2it to get the EPG, it connects and updates just fine, error free.. afterwords, i start GB_PVR and theres nothing in the guide....
I was watching a 1/2 hour program (recorded with my Hauppauge 150). the end time seemed fine at 28:26, however, at about 5 minutes in, it just skipped forward by about 2 minutes. If I hit rewind to the same spot, it would then skip again, but to a different spot. This hppened for as many times as I went back to the initial skip point. It would always skip to a different point. However, that's the only place where it happened. I was able to watch the program to the end without further problems.
I have a single Hauppauge 150MCE that I am trying to use with gbpvr. What I find strange is that when I choose the Main Concept Hauppauge video decoder in the gbpvr config I can't get any video on LIVE TV. When I playback something I recorded it seems to work fine. If I choose system default I can watch live tv and what is recorded but it tends to be a bit jumpy. Using the Hauppauge decoder is clearly more smooth but if I can't use it for LIVE TV then it is sort of useless.
I'm new here though I have been using GBPVR for over 18 months. This one is pretty basic: I simply cannot download 0.97.7, the download stubbornly stops at 38%. Clueless. Thanx for help.
