i'd rather not lose my scheduled recordings, so i was planning on making a backup of my gbpvr directory right before i format my hard drive. is there anything in the registry i have to backup/restore in order to keep my recording schedule? or do i have the right idea to just copy the folder, format/install windows, etc., install gbpvr, and overwrite the folder with my backup?
thanks.

I have tried to download this http://www.gbpvr.com/mvp-related-patch.zip but it is dead.
Is this the only link ?

Wanted to see who out there has a setup similar to what i would like to get up on my pvr. I currently have 2 pvr150MCE both connected by their analog coaxial inputs (max 125 channel). I have a set top box for my digital cable that I have for just watching, but dont have set up to record. Was wondering if anyone has a setup where one of the cards uses both the analog input and the s-video input so that someone could still change the channel on the set top box if it is recording an analog channel. Is there a way to get GBPVR to manage the recordings so it will not use the STB and svideo input to record on an analog channel? Can 2 different capture sources be configured for 1 card with separate channel listings? If you have this working, I'd love to hear how.

Wifey hates me tinkering so I'd hate to go through the hours of experimenting if this is not possible.

Hi ,
Trying to get the latest version of the gb pvr software ......

at 0.3K per second its gonna take a while
IS there a problem with the server ?

I have a Dvico Fusion Lite card working in my system along with 2 pvr-250s. I’ve got 3 capture sources set up, the two 250s are devices 1 and 2, and use a Zap2it account that has all my analog channels on it, no hd. The Fusion is set up as device 1 as well, and uses a separate Zap2it account that has only my hd channels listed.

I can correctly record from all 3 cards at the same time if I go into xguide and manually start 3 recordings. However I can’t schedule any reocurring shows via the CDKScheduler in XRecord. When I run priority recordings it runs without any errors, but it schedules most of the recordings on Source 4 or Source 5, which don’t exist on my system. It doesn’t, as far as I can see, ever use Sources 1 or 3. It does schedule recordings for Source 2.

Can anyone help me with this?

I tried searching for this problem, but cannot find anything specifically like it. I would like to try an empty/reload of the channel lineup in my sources, but I don't want it to screw up my current recordings (unless that's just unavoidable).

Why do I have this in the Channels tab of the Config:



And this in the Guide:



This channel 48 AETV is only listed once in the three tuner source setups (I have a PVR500 and PVR150). I've tried removing the unreferenced channels in the Channel tab of the Config, but these two extra AETV channels remain behind in the Guide (even though there's only one extra one showing up in the Channels tab). The normal channel 48 AETV is in it's proper place in the Guide and the channel lineup, but for some reason these two extras are there at the end of the Guide.

Short of really screwing up my current recording history, scheduled recordings, etc., is there any way to get rid of this? Normally, I would just dink around with the tuner configs, channel lineup, EPG, etc., until they went away, but I don't want to lose everything if possible.

Thanks!

Hey everyone,

I am a newbie to this PVR game and need some help. I've done my searches and can not find my problem (or maybe I don't know what I'm looking for), so hopefully you all can help me out.

EVERYTIME that I watch a recorded show through the MVP, I can only get through 10-15 minutes before I get booted back to that contacting server screen. Live TV, web radio , etc seems to work flawlessly. Also, that screen will not go away until I physically unplug it to restart the mvp. Any ideas on what I need to change or do to have this run smoothly? Thanks in advance!

I am running the mvp wired to a router on the network. I am only using the GBPVR software v0.95.16. I never installed the software that came with the MediaMVP.
Spec for comp:
p4 2.66ghz
512mb
hauppauge 150-mce
Nvidia GeForce3 Ti 200
200gb maxtor ultra ata/133
***this comp is also my daily user***

The software is awesome and works great if I only watch from my comp. Is it the MVP? I need help, I am lost! THanks!

It's driving me nuts. I keep changing <Conflicts>Delete</Conflicts> to <Conflicts>Keep</Conflicts>, and it keeps changign back. It's not runnign CDK, or opening/closing GB config.

How can I make this stick?

Well it works on one hour episodes no problem, but somehow the avi's and I tried dvix too same thing happens after 1h 27 min and 52 seconds it's over lots of movies that it attempts to shrink down in size get killed after that amount of time
anyone else have the same problem?
Is there a fix I missed
thanks

Hi,

Occasionally i get asked to record something on my GBPVR setup for someone else. I then need to put the recording(s) onto a DVD-RW. This i can do just fine, but it does take quite a lot of time.

I am fine with stripping out the ads with video re-do as that doesn't take too long.

What takes the time is authoring the DVD with 1, 2 or maybe even 3 programmes on it. This can total 4 hours or video footage. I currently re-encode the files to get them to fit nicely on the DVD.

So, to my question.

Is there such a piece of software that will take a number of MPG files, and generate a DVD folder/image with a menu to getting to each programme.

Ideally i would just want a main menu with each programme on it, maybe chapters every x minutes (where i can specify x).

It would then generate the menu for me, after having gathered info on each MPG file (title, # of chapters etc), then re-encode the MPGs and create the VOB/ISO files.

If there isn't such a thing, are the any source libraries available for doing the donkey work, then i could write a GUI for all this.

Many thanks.
