Hi, this might be better under an add-in addition, but I'm no programmer and maybe the developers of GBPVR would think it useful enough to include in the main build.
What I really wish I had was the ability to tell the program to watch for certian words in the program titles and if there is a match to notify me when it finds one. For example: I want to record Shawshank Redemption, but it isn't on in the next two weeks. I dont want to have to run this query every two weeks. I'd prefer to just tell the computer to look for 'shawshank' every day until it finds somthing.
This shouldn't be very hard, just schedule a daily query of the schedule DB and have it report somehow, but I have no idea how to do it.
I have tried setting my channel lineup with zap2it, I have tried removing the channels in config using the remove button (which seems to only want to move them), I have tried unclicking the unwanted channels while editing my source, I have tried unclicking the unwanted channels on the main channel tab and selecting remove unreferenced channels. I have tried clearing EPG and Updating it again.
Somebody please tell me if I'm doing something wrong. I don't use an internal tuner, only external and would like to fix my channel lineup. I apparently had done it succesfully at one time, because I don't have all the garbage unused channels (DirecTv) but I still have some I don't want, and would like to add another.
I am willing to edit registry entries and ini files if I need to.
As the title says, I'm looking for a way to overwrite the files created in Manual Recordings; this is because with the external recorder I am running a batch file which records to a different file location (but with the same name), and would like to use another batch file to then move this file to copy over the one GBPVR tries to create in its recordings folder (which remains empty).
Seemingly this file is protected at the moment though, and can't be deleted or over-written. Is there any way around this?
I would like to do this because usb uirt flashes when it recieves a command..and it seems to work better..The hauppuage one is really picky at picking up my remote.. Anyone do this... would i have to use HIP or girder?
I recently installed a second Emuzed Maui III-G card (Total of 2 cards) under 96.12. I configured both of them identically other than the device name and number (i.e., Device 1 and Device 2). When I test capture on them, at the same time, they both capture different feeds successfully, but one of the cards playsback the stream as if doing an Alvin and the Chipmonks impersonation. In actuallity, I believe both audio and video, on this stream, are being played back at an above average rate. The other card's playback is without issue.
My GBPVR was working fine, using Zap2It, when it suddenly just stopped updating the guide.
When I went to manually update the guide, it went through the motions, but then while processing, gave me the error message "Failure in ChannelFactory:toreChannels():File sharing lock count exceeded. Increase MasterLockPerFile registry entry"
My guide is now empty, and I am without any scheduled recordings
Please help me.
A search of the forums and the web yielded nothing.
Also, I tried to upgrade to the latest version, but it would not install. Just hung.
I tried installing all the upgrades suggested by Windows Update, except DirectX 9.0c, and still no luck.
BTW, congrats Sub on the new addition.
I have searched the forum but can't seem to piece together a definite answer. I just bought a Hauppauge PVR 250BTV off of ebay for 40 bucks with shipping. It comes with the remote also. Is this card compatible with GV-PVR? This is my first TV Tuner Card and I was looking around and GV-PVR seems to be a great program. I called Hauppauge and the sales lady just said it is their card bundled in the Beyond TV pack, and then she transferred me to a tech... and he basically didn't know what I was talking about. Then I said Beyond TV and he said, yeah that is basically just the retail version. When I look on the Hauppauge website, the MCE version looks like the card I bought and the retail version doesn't. It also says it can be used for a bunch of programs including Beyond TV and MCE. Apparently the one I have also has the FM tuner in it. I do see that the Roslyn Hauppauge card is compatible now... I am not sure that is what I have, but I do understand that Roslyn has something to do with the chip in the card.
Lastly, Is the PVR250BTV any worse of a card than the 250MCE or the retail version? I've read that its cheaper... but is this card that I bought basically the MCE with the "Beyond TV" name branded on it?
I posted about this a few versions ago and didn't get a response, and the same problem is persisting for me now. I get no sound from net radio, and I have no idea why. It *used* to work, once upon at time. I've installed the latest sound drivers, WinDVD, Winamp, windows updates, etc. I added the following line to my config.xml:
Also tried it as false. Either way, doesn't matter, no audio. Audio for recorded shows is fine. So, once again, I'm looking for suggestions to fix this problem.
The system I was using for GBPVR didn't have a DVD drive so I've installed one. I have the Intervideo WinDVD installed and can play DVD's through WinDVD and Windows Media Player.
I've used the "Config" tool to set up the DVD drive.
I'm running 96.12 of GBPVR.
I do not have a "DVD" menu button to even try playing the DVD even though it is enabled in config.
I've searched the forums and the Wiki, but can't find an answer - any suggestions?
