I installed a new hard drive today, and my drive letters got somewhat messed up. I had it sorted out, but since then nothing shows up in recording status.

Also, when I try to watch "Live TV" I get an error message saying that no tuner is available even though there is no current recording. (One thing funny is that the Tunning Assistant works fine.)

I found a bunch of error messages in the GBPVRRecording.log .

Can anyone help me with this? I reinstalled .NET framework 1.1 and GBPVR but the same error keeps happening.

Hey there, I have been trying to figure out a way to configure a remote button to shift program focus to GBPVR, since it's not the only app running on my computer. I realized that if you run GBPVR.exe again when it is already open, it will shift focus to GBPVR, perfect. Now, how do I program a button on my MCE remote to run GBPVR.exe? I just have some generic MCE remote that came with a Sapphire Theatrix Theatre 550Pro card.

Thanks!!

I will be setting up my first pvr tonight and need some advice.

I am using a Radeon 9250 to output directly to a TV. What should i set the resolution and refresh rate on the windows box to? Does it have any relevence when using tv out.

Also what are th best config settings / decoder when using this card?

Thanks in advance

hi , i have a wintvgo pvr 150 , i use the GBPVR09516. when i want to update the epg i receive this error message : failure in channelfactory:torechannels(): aucun enregistrement en cours .

what am i supose to do with that ?

Tonight I ghosted my original GBPVR recording drive (the D: drive ... disk 2) and I engaged in the process of replacing it with a larger brand new drive.

After physically installing the new drive, when I restarted the computer to get back to Windows XP so that I could restore the ghost image to the new drive, a Windows Installer dialog box popped up showing "Configuring GBPVR Service" (or something along those lines). It was at this point that I realized that I had neglected to set the GBPVR Recording Service to manual, so I immediately "canceled" the Windows Installer and stopped the service.

By the time that I got it stopped I fear that it may have already purged from the database recordings listed as "Ready" that it could not find (since the D: drive no longer existed at this point).

While the log doesn't state that it removed specific "Ready" recordings records from the dB, the following lines from the log and the fact that the dB is now about 100 MB smaller than it was and has a time stamp equivalent to the timings in these log lines lead me to believe that such is the case:

All right, I want to create a movie collection of my DVDs that I can view through my MVP. But I just simply don't understand all of this converting stuff. Can someone point me in the direction of a free tool to convert my DVDs to MPEG2? And SIMPLE instructions on how to do it. I heard DIKO was good, but I can't figure the thing out. Please help me before I go nuts. :eek:

My wife just told me that our pvr has not recorded any shows since the beginning of the year. She has several shows set to record automatically and nothing has recorded been recorded in this new year. Everything looks ok in the software (the indicators that the shows are scheduled appear to be correct).
Has anyone else had this sort of problem? Is there a bug related to the beginning of a new year?

Thanks

We are using GB-PVR with the Hauppauge MediaMVP and a 150MCE.

Hi All,

My cousin told me about this site when i told him about my tv card. So today I replaced my $15 no name tv card for the PVR 150. Installed "everything" and have more trouble than ever.

First, on the PVR 150, the quality of the tv display is grey scale pathetic. Also, the channel series is 3 digits off (My channel 6 on regular tv is channel 3 on the PVR 150). Finally, the audio doesnt work at all. I have checked all the settings and I get nothing.

Now for my GBPVR problems. I installed the sw and went to setup the EPG and get the message "You must import your list of EPG channels..". I have no idea where to begin with this import. I figure once the channels are setup, I wont have any further problems, but in the meantime I am stuck at step 1.

I really wanna see this program work better then the comcast service.

Thank you all in advance.

Howard
