Is is possible to use the irman on gbpvr?

I've been trying to get my PVR150 IR Blaster to control my DirecTv RCA DRD2222RD receiver (supported) all night. I put the sensor directly over the receiver. The led on the blaster does flash red, but the box never goes off. I went through the long drawn out process of testing all codes, but still nothing. For kicks, I tried it on my Hughes HIRDB2 receiver too. Nothing. Is there something I can check? Is there an IR led in the blaster or is it just a red led?

Hi all,

For some reason GBPVR will no longer play DVD's on my system, I just get a black screen. No OSD either. It had been working fine up until today. Anyway,
I completely uninstalled EVERYTHING: GBPVR, WinDVD 7, Nero 7, and all WinTV drivers and apps. Reinstalled everything and still no go. DVD's play fine in WMP and Windvd. I don't know what else to try...

<PromptForResume>true</PromptForResume>
[COLOR="Blue"]<StoreResumeStartExclusion>0</StoreResumeStartExclusion>
<StoreResumeEndExclusion>0</StoreResumeEndExclusion>[/COLOR]
<UseMenuResumeButton>true</UseMenuResumeButton>

My searches have come back empty on this.

What do the <StoreResumeExclusion> settings in config.xml control?
Also, the first line in a comskip file includes the total length of the video. Does GBPVR use this line, or is it just a user information type of thing?

TIA!

I currently have PVR 350 and PVR500MCE cards installed. I have tested by recording 3 channels at once, recording 2 channels and watching live TV at the same time. All works well but I also get shows that record with no sound. Some times it is just when a single show is scheduled to record. Then some times it will happen when a second show records while the first is still recording. I have not been able to narrow it down to a specific device. I installed the PVR350 first and was using that with out any problem. I added the PVR500MCE later. For the most part everything works great. Thanks for the great software. I'm still learning how to setup a lot of things at this point. Anyone who could shed some light on my problem would be appreciated.

Thanks
Wayne

I did a quick search on but I didn't find anything regarding my problem.

I'm having issues with some recordings not being retained in the database. At least not the recordings screen. Or XRecord. Its not all just once and a while.

I'm going to guess I did something to cause the disappearing show but I can't figure it out.

On the last one that didn't make it into the database this is what happened. 3 days ago I searched for "ER" to schedule a seaon recording of "ER". Last night it started to record. After it had started I went to the guide and hit "watch" to make sure the recording was working. I watched about 10 minutes and exited the recording. Today I went "Recordings" to watch my show and its gone. But if I use video library I can go to my "ER" folder and there it is. And Rename Recordings has properly named it to the "show-epsoide name".

I'm running Rename Recrodings in my postprocessing.bat (RenameRecording.exe -t %1 > rename.log) and I run xexport in my postupdate.bat. To give myself a backup incase this sort of thing happens, but by the time xexport runs the entry is no longer inthe database. It appears there is nothing to export.

Anyone got any ideas? Is Rename recordings causing the problems?

On average?

Obviously it depends on the original MPEG-2 bitrate and destination WMV bitrate etc. but I was chatting to a guy earlier today who was converting a 90 minute MPEG-2 recording to WMV using Adobe Premiere and it had taken nearly 7 hours. The PC was a reasonably high spec. one.

Is this normal? It seems a bit extreme to me.

Hi all,

I've set up GBPVR with a PVR-150 & even managed to get the IR Blaster to work with my starchoice reciever. What's annoying me is that I can't seem to get the fonts in GBPVR to display well on my computer.

Everything works & I can read whats there, but it's "squished" for lack of a better word. Almost looks like the text boxes are too small for the text. Some of the buttons try to wrap to another line & that doesn't work well.

I've tried a few different skins, BlueMCE2 works the best for me but it still has these issues. I thought it was because of my resolution (normally 1280x1024) the problem remains no matter how low I go.

I've tried installing this on a few of my lab computers & I get the same result on the monitor. The only thing the equipment has in common are ATI graphic cards, but they're all different makes.

So now I'm stumped. I can't find anything to make the fonts a touch smaller, is there an xml file I need to edit or am I just being blind?

I've not yet tried it on my TV, my MVP is backordered (Hopefully next week).

Any ideas?

Cheers!

Hi,

I noticed that my guide hasnt been updating recently so i went to do a manual update and i get the error:

"Your EPG device doesnt appear to be correctly configured. Please check your EPG scource settings and try again"

I know for a fact that my settings are correct, does anyone have any ideas whats causing this, and how to fix it?

Thanks in advanced
