Video Format - PAL BGHIDK
I have a very good DVR deck for recording, and an old. and slow pc running GBPVR....I have sat with EPG issues, so I want the guide from GBPVR and most of the other features, but would prefer to just record to dvd, I can set up the timers on everything, but would like to use GBPVR to do it all, My issue is that I cannot select from the guide, and issue commands to each device, sat, TV and DVR, without having GB try to record to hard drive....Is there a way? Am I missing something?
When recording about four shows running straight after each other from the same channel, gbpvr records first show with first tuner, second with second tuner, third with first tuner and fourth with second tuner. But as second tuner is HVR-1300 and capturing with Web Scheduler DVB-T MPEG4 TS and was not currently available to GBPVR, GBPVR failed recording the second and fourth shows resulting 0 bytes length files.
Could it be somehow told to GBPVR that if it needs to record from the same channel many shows in a line it continuously uses only the same (first) tuner not switches tuners?
experimented with GBPVR and a PVR 350 a couple of years ago, but stopped using it due to the documented problems with that card.
I've recently bought a win nova-t (90003) and thought I'd try again.
I'm having some problems with the "Map digital channels to EPG channels" - I'm currently trying to use the OTA DVB EPG.
The card is configured to look at Hannigton (correct), 6 channels are scanned with plenty of stations found (some duplicates) but at the end of the 6th channel, the process seems to just hang.
Searching these forums I found some ideas and experimented with bdascan=2, I've downloaded the cyberlink mux and registered it and have also got the latest drivers from hauppauge, I've also removed and reinstalled GBPVR (when all else fails!).
Somewhere along this path I have improved things somewhat, and by the end of last night the scan appeared to have worked and I actually had EPG data downloaded. I was still having problems with rescan (would hang) so I'm not convinced that this is 100% but was pleased at the success.
Q1/ Is the OTA DVB EPG the best way to go? Obviously it is the most elegant solution, but are other people using it successfully in the UK? I did have xmltv configured before so could go back to using that if it is more reliable.
Q2/ I dont understand the comment: "Then select & match up the channels to the EPG data"
Probably being a bit dense here, but after the successfull map, I had 30 or so channels on the LHS of the screen, which I could select or not with a check box and on the RHS the same list of channels appears. Do I need to do anything else on this screen other than select the appropriate check boxes? Is there an easy way to determine which of the (say) 2 BBC1 instances is the one I want?
I was wondering if there was a way to be able to utilize some of the special buttons on my Remote Wonder with GBPVR? Especially the stop, play, and pause buttons for controlling the state of the currently playing song. Some of the buttons already work, because they basically emulate the keyboard keys, but it'd be nice if there was a way to get the other buttons working with this program. Any ideas?
I recently installed the My Music plugin and noticed it can sort the files in the current folder (or playlist?) by just about everything except for Artist name. Is there something I'm overlooking or is it possible that this feature could be easily added by myself or in a future version of the plugin?
Something weird has just happened that I cannot fix. I used the F7 button to change the aspect ratio of a video I was watching. After that , the remote stopped working period. I rebooted and found that nothing in the startup menu was autostarting (gbpvrtray.exe , autostartIR ) I reset the aspect ratio and the startup items are now starting but the back/exit button on the remote is mimicing the windows ket and bringing up the start menu. I have tried the "fix Hauppauge 45 button remote" button without success. Idea's??????
I have an ATI TV Wonder Pro and used the SoftwareRecorder plugin to get live tv to appear. It looks perfect, but whenever I try to choose a show to record, it doesn't record it. When I go to the listing inthe recordings section, it shows how many of each show it was supposed to record but when I click them it shows "failure" on everyone of them. What do I need to do to get this working?
I installed the avivo 1.14 when doing the SoftwareRecorder plugin
