Installed GBPVR about two weeks ago and all is great, except I get no video with DVD playback. Using Intervideo it plays outside of GBPVR. I've tried changing the decoder settings in Config with no luck.
When a user asks for help with a problem or suspects a bug, what is the most useful information that can be given?
The reason is I've nearly finished writing 'ZipLogs for GBPVR'; it zips specified log and config files so they can easily be sent by email, or posted on the forum
I was thinking of having an info file, things like version numbers, location/country, using MVP or not, and so on.
I've bought the ATI Remote Wonder II, it works great. But when I use the cursor keys on the remote it constantly goes up/down twice. When I'm in eg. Explorer there is no problem. Pressing once means only go up/down 1 and not two.
So, are there people who havr an idea how I can solve this problem ? I currently use the mouse pointer to go the the correct option in the GB-PVR menu.
I am trying to make a small batch file that automatically purge excess recordings when the HDD fills up.
It uses a purge.ini file to specify what should be deleted
Code:
close*.mpg 1
star*.mpg 0
crime*.mpg 2
*.mpg 20
The first item on each line specifies a dir mask used to define a group of recordings. The second item is the maximum number of recordings matching the file mask that should be kept.
The last line specifies that no more then 20 recordings should be kept in total
The purge.bat file reads the purge.ini file and processes each line
The oldest files matching the mask exceeding the count are deleted with a wildcard as extension mask.
Code:
@Echo off
for /F "usebackq tokens=1,2" %%i in ("purge.ini") do call :processline "%%i" "%%j"
goto :eof
purge.ini should be in the directory that should be purge.
purge.bat should be executed in the directory to be purged
A simple way to do this is to copy both files (of course you have to change purge.ini to your situation) into the directory that should be purged and to use a scheduled task to run purge.bat
For testing purposes it is recommended to manually execute purge and to put a 'rem' before the Del and to write the output to a log file as
purge >purge.log
I am still looking for an easy way to determine the amount of free space from a bat dos batch file so I can use that to delete old recorsdings i.s.o. using a maximum number of recordings.
Usual disclaimer: Use this at your own risk, this script can do terrible things
A zip file containing the two purge files can be downloaded from here
Did a search and didn't find anything on my problem. So
Using GBPVR v 0.94.13
nVidia audio and video decoders
using S/PDIF from mobo into home theater receiver
Play a DVD using GBPVR and everything seems to work fine. Now exit from DVD and immediately I get white noise hiss out of speakers. Click on live tv, hissing stops and video appears on screen but no audio. nvidia decoder properties utility shows audio bits getting to it. Exit live TV mode and play DVD again and audio returns.
Recorded shows have no audio. Using Windows Media player and recorded shows play and sound fine.
Exiting and reloading gbpvr does not help and rebooting does not help.
This is very annoying. I'm using an old Creative TNT2 video card for the s-video out function. The problem is the output is not full screen. It leaves black stripes along the left and right side. I googled this and found most people have this problem and tvtool.de fixed it.
I ran tvtool and the screen started jumping all over the place. I couldn't even see the picture. Anyone else have any ideas?
I've been unable to get Closed Captions ( subtitles ) to appear when watching live tv or in recordings.
I've turned on all the teletext, SRT etc options in the Config application.
When watching live TV I click on the button ( can't offhand remeber which) to turn on subtitles, and the Subtitles enabled message appears, but no subtitles.
Setup :
95.14 version of gbpvr,
Dual Fusion HDTV cards ( the lite and the plus).
I've tried different BDA multiplexors, but am using the Cyberlink ones at the moment.
What do I need to do ??
In particular I want to record shows, and get the closed captions.
Hi all,
I'm using GB-PVR 95.16
When using a PVR350 card and having the settings set to-
Hardware decoder device: None - use software decoder
Software MPEG-2 Playback:
Video Decoder:Intervideo NonCSS Video Decoder
Audio Decoder:NVIDIA Audio Decoder
Audio Renderer:NVIDIA
and Use Live Preview mode if possible
Everything seems to be working fine,BUT.......
If the Hardware decoder device is set to: Hauppauge PVR350
and Use Live Preview mode if possible
It automatically records the program.
I bought this card thinking that if it had a hardware Encoder/Decoder that
with live preview it would not record anything.
If this is correct than how do I get GB-PVR to auto deleate the recorded video when I either change channels of when the program is over with?:confused: :confused:
