I have slight problem that some of you may have expereinced here, and may have found the solution.
I have just installed another PVR-150 on my PC, so I have two tunner card. I have done normal setup in which I have setup both tunners, setup EPG for each one of them, and got the channel and program listings. Everything works, and problem appears when I want to watch through one tunner while other is recording.
I have tried several time last night while one tuner was recording Office, I tried to watch TV. I was able to change channel seveal times, but then it got stuck on one channel, and it won't go past that. I restarted GBPVR GUI, and same results. It comes back to the same channel. I went to Program Listing, and tried to change. OSD shows it is on the different channel, but picture shows the same channel.
Another funny thing is that while this thing gets stuck on the one cable, tunner which is recording "Office" skips recording, and start recording anything at random.
I have had that happened couple of times in which picture gets stuck on one channel while one tunner is recording, and tunner skips what it suppose to record, and starts recording something at random.
Any ideas? It can't be PC related since it is Athlon64 with 1 Gig RAM, separate two TV tunners, and a MX4000 Graphics card. I do have firewire harddrive which is the destination for the recording.
I am slowly getting discovering the possibilites of gbpvr having eventually built a PC with an hauppage 150pvr card but during
my initial tests which involved recording recorded programmes from SKY+
i ran into some difficulties. I hope someone can put be right.
I first realised that i couldnt queue up SKY+ recordings for archive but had to play it live and then record it - Is this the standard way ? Is there going to be future support for queuing ?
Also, i tried to copy 3hrs of rubgy, it ended up splitting the match into 2 files,
the first file was ok but the secord seem corrupt, is this normal to split the file ?is there a way to override
Hello,
this is my first post here. i have a techcom tv tuner card having philips 73xxxx chipset. i wanted to know if GBPVR supports it. it does not have hardware encoding capability.
in the fm tuner. the entry your are ediitng does not update the freq of the entry (title) during an edit. it seems to hide "below" the old entry until you delete the old entry.

I was wondering how easy it would be to do a group by genre in the recording list (since the data is captured).
I would also like the ability to show only movies, or not show the movies in a list. I have several hundred movies recorded and it makes a mess when trying to navigate to the show groups.
I"m new to this whole built your own pvr stuff so my question is this.. after reading alot of post from this forum and other forums just like this one. is it safe to say that when you hook your home made pvr up to your TV, the picture quality you get will NOT look as good compared to just having my digital cable connected right to my TV without going thru my computer?? I've read alot of posts talking about soft or blurry video ( this is my problem at the moment ) and video quality being not as good as REAL tv. what has your experience's been like?
Just thought I'd start this thread for anyone who has anything to say about the plugin or would like to see any features added. I'll add a link to here from the wiki.
GB PVR can wake my PC from standby or hibernate to make a recording. I would like to be able to force it to go back into standby or hibernate when the recording is finished. This would allow me to set it to make recordings when on holiday etc. Does anyone know of a way to do this?
would be nice to see the recording progress of the program during paused time shifting
you know like a update to the graphics and time amount changeing.
