Is there a way to just keep recording from an input? I'm going to be recording a lot of video from old tapes shortly, and I was hoping I could use gbpvr for this, rather then track down other software to just record it all.

Is such a thing possible? Even better would be if I could get it to split it up into a new file when I pressed a button.. but thats optional.

I recently added a digital lineup to my cable service and setup my TV402U to record the digital channels by feeding my STB output to the TV402U composite inputs (I'm using a USB-UIRT to change channels on the STB, which is working fine). I'm still recording analog channels using the TV402U tuner (which frees up the STB to watch other shows while recording analog programs).

So, I set this up by creating a second source (such that I have sources labeled Plextor A and Plextor D). I did not change the config of Plextor A other than to remove the digital channels from its lineup. I added Plextor D and configured it to use the composite inputs and I removed all the analog channels from its lineup. Both sources reference the same device number/id.

I get the following behavior. Video capture works as desired. Audio on the other hand gets confused. Once I start capturing an analog channel, a subsequent change to a digital channel produces the correct video, but I get audio from the old analog channel. If I reboot the system, I can record or view (time shifted) a digital channel and get the correct audio from the composite input, but once I've changed to an analog source I can never again get the audio to capture from the composite input.

Attached are the recording service logs from a simple experiment: watch analog channel, then try to wach digital channel.

When deleteing from video library the comskip files remain. Would be nice if these were deleted also.

Then if this results in an empty directory (i.e. no other episodes of that program) could we automatically delete the directory.

Just some housekeeping that I do manually that would be nice automated.

I did some looking but I couldn't find anything...


I'm trying to display 4:3 content (recorded by gbpvr) on a 16:9 TV in 4:3 mode.


Basically, I'm looking for the aspect ratio setting that will add vertical black bars instead of horizontal. Can any help me or point me in the right direction?


Thanks.

I like the icon of the SharperEdge menu, and wish to have it apply to video folders.

I would like a way to mark video folder for kids, news, movies, etc... with icons on the left of the folder. I hope to make this more kids friendly. Thanks.

I had the luxury of time this weekend to listen to NetRadio via the MVP. Oddly enough the silly thing rebooted a few times. My HTPC was doing other things at the same time (file accessing, etc) but nothing out of the ordinary for a PC. Is anyone else seeing this behavior?

Previously I had used the language.xml to rename many of my menu items. With the update that came out 2 releases ago, the installer deleted this file and created a new language subdirectory.

How can I customize my menu text for the English language? :confused:

has anyone received this message? i couldnt find it searching. I have been getting this message periodicly since updating to v0.96.8. It happens if I hit stop while watching a recording, sometimes when i hit the blue button on the remote. I havent pinned it down since it seems to happen randomly. When I get the error I have to reboot the machine, or everytime I start a video i get the error again. I will post more details when I get them. I was just wondering if this has happened to anyone else

I have a pvr 150 MCE kit (the one with the included remote and blaster). I am using regular windows XP. I have gone through the whole guide for using HIP and hipsend but I am still unable to get the blaster to change the channel on my directv box. Can anyone help?

I click on a .m4a file and the black square comes up down the bottom but it doesn't play.
