Anyone know why this would happen? (see pic Recording_W_Static.JPG) I was away for a week and I haven't changed anything, but it MIGHT have been doing it before I left, not 100% sure. If I play the files in media player full screen (see picture MediaPlayer_Fine.JPG), they play fine. The GUI is fine (see pic GUI.JPG), I just get this static when playing back RECORDED vids through GBPVR. Live-TV is fine, unless I put it in time shift mode. If no one has any ideas, I may juts try to re-install... lemme know.

thanks

At the computer in the “Search Guide” menu I can type and search for “*”.
Is there a way to enter a special character like this using only the MPV remote?

I was thinking about adding star ratings (***+) to the beginning of movie titles.

After recording a program gb-pvr 96.12. If I try to view the program thru Windows Media Player or try to play the file thru gb-pvr or Media MVP, all I get is a black screen.

I have enclosed the gbpvr.exe.native.

Capture Card WinTvPVR-500MCE

Thanks,

Maybe this is already possible, so i didn't put it on the wishlist, but in the US, TV Stations are beginning to put their shows on TV (for free). They are the reruns. For example, check out http://www.cbs.com/innertube/

And when I saw the Yahoo PVR stuff, I realized that the advantage Yahoo has is that it can integrate all of its videos into its PVR software.

I'd love it if there was a way to do that with GBPVR--maybe do something with ubustream?

I installed gbpvr and it works well. GREAT

I have 100 CDs already recorded in MCE and they show up and play in Music Library. GREAT

Now I want to record a new CD. Problem - there is no "record CD" option in the main menu. Oh dear says I - maybe I have to download a mymusic plugin. I go to the wiki and follow instructions to download mymusic, plus a database (which I couldn't find in a file search) and something else - I forget now (was it codareader or some such?).

Anyway I extract to (I thought) the gbpvr directory as per the readme text in the zip files and installed as per the wiki etc. Obviously I made a right mess as I ended up with a ridicuous structure like: C:\Program Files\devnz\gbpvr\mymusic\gbpvr\skin\blue\My Music\skin.xml.

I have searched this site and find several confused beings like me with the wrong directory structures that mean plugins don't show up in the config menus or don't show up in the gbpvr main menu.

1. Is there a guide somewhere that sets out the proper directory structure? If yes any help with a link? If not, surely one of you experts out there could write a quick sticky? It would benefit the millions who will one day be using this excellent program

2. If I search for my music I find what appears to be a plugin already in the default blue skin. And also in the two new skins I downloaded, which run fine: xmedia - le and gxmedia - se. Does this mean that I didn't need to download mymusic in the first place?

3. Any other advice on how to get a "record CD" option in gbpvr would be most appreciated.

I must say that while I am a newcomer to things media centre, I am pretty experienced around PCs. However, the way plugins are organised and installed in gbpvr has floored me:o :o

TIA

Hi,

Just got my HVR1300. I'm using the DVB EPG broadcast to populate the channel listings.

I have selected the channels that i would like to see in the EPG and mapped them, but can I change the order of the EPG list?

Eg I'd like them to appear in a more senesible order, eg BBC channels, ITV,C4,C5 etc...

That would allow me to place the most used channels at the top of the list.

Thanks
Alan

Hi Just got MVP and all is working but I have an issue with screen size.

Videos play full screen and look really good but GBPVR does not fill the screen having a black border about an inch wide all the way around.

Is it possible to increase the size of GBPVR without changing the video size and how?

Thanks

Hi Sub,

What I'd like is the ability to switch video / audio decoders in the config app without restarting the recording service. After all - it should only affect the front-end, no?

I've been fiddling with the playback options these past few days to get over the infamous tearing that one gets on nVidia cards. But my recording service started recording in the middle, and I can't touch anything anymore.

The only things you can do when GBPVR is recording are things like:

1. Go to 'Video Decoder Options'.
   
2. Edit some plugin settings.

I'm going to build an extension cable for the IR receiver cable so I don't have to cut/splice it. Could someone tell me what the size of this jack is? Is it called a 1.5mm stereo jack? Just a guess...
