Everything I've tried so far ends up crashing Windows Media Encoder.

1. Take the MPG the GBPVR creates, and run it through Windows Media Encoder, after clicking Finish in the wizard, the WMEncoder crashes.

2. GSpot doesn't work on the MPG file as it doesn't support MPEG2 - tried troubleshooting if it was a missing codec.

3. Windows Media, VLC and Nero all play the file fine.

4. Tried using FFMPEG to create both a xvid & divx .avi file. Again, Windows Media Player plays it, but Windows Media Encoder crashes on it.

I've tried doing this on both the PVR running Windows XP and on my main gaming desktop running Windows XP. I haven't determined if my problem is the video stream or the audio stream - but most of my efforts have been on the video stream. I've googled the problem and heard of app crashes when there is space(empty?) in the audio stream in the beginning.



Anyone else try doing anything like this? Ultimately, I want to encode the videos as streaming WMV files and place them behind Windows Media Server on Win2k. I've successfully done this with non-GBPVR files, most xvid. Currently I'm resorting to burning GBPVR videos to DVD and snail mailing. :p

I reinstall my computer (with Pinnacle 300i card) download new GB-PVR (GBPVR09516.msi), and install that, when I scan everyone chanel found but chanel name not found (Unknown0, Unknown1...), and only one working...
Later I thinking whats wrong and newer before seen that in GB-PVR, must test older version...
found somewhere in my harddisk version 9413 -- all working fine.

After That I update to new version (9516), all chanel working :-)
When I try scan chanel with new version same problem (I didint save that scan)

Bought a new ATI TheatriX 550 Pro and installed GB-PVR 95.16 a few days ago, it was working great. Just today I started getting this strange error when going forward in time in the TV Guide. I've attached a screenshot of the error. Has anyone else seen this? I'm wondering if my TV Guide files from Zap2it are corrupt.

Generally, I love using comskip with GBPVR. But GBPVR has a tendency to skip the last part of a show after the last commercial. It would be nice if there was an option that said if the apparent length of the comercial was longer than X, e.g., 4 minutes, i.e., there was more time remaining in the show than X, and this was the last comercial break of the show, that the show should continue to play and not skip the commercial. Seems simple enough to implement.

Is there a plugin or workaround to automatically delete recordings when your hdd fills up and you want to make room for new recordings?

After searching the forums, I could not find the answer to this question. Maybe XRecord-recycler does this, but I can't find the documentation that tells me what all of the capabilities of XRecord are.

Thanks for your help and sorry if this has been answered before. Where is the FAQ?

Hi

I've recently noticed that when a recording is taking place the status on the main menu show up as "recording soon" instead of "recording now"

Anyob\ne with any suggestions of how I correct this. See attached screen shot. Check the time of the recording and the clock on the screen.

Your assistance is greatly appreciated.

Cheers

P.s This occured with other skins.

CAN ANYONE HELP PLEASE

Hi All

Just started using GBPVR (0.95.16) and loving it!! Nice work Sub, mate!

So I've mostly got my HTPC working, and tried the UKCinemaListings plugin, and although it shows up inthe main menu, whenI try to use it I get:-

error: could not find file "c:\Program Files\devnz\gbpvr\skin\Blue\Common Dialogs\Prompt Box skin.xml"

I have the plugin skin.xml and DLL in the right place but thats all there was in the ZIP.

Any ideas??

GBPVR is a great program, but I seem to have issues with available free disk space. To help with that, it would be nice if GBPVR was aware of how much disk space you had left and warned you if there was not enough space left for upcoming recordings. This could be done on the main screen, where it tells you the next scheduled recording. GBPVR could warn in the event that it was estimated that there was not enough disk space left. It could also be done when you schedule a new recording, based an estimate of the disk space needed for the recording, the currently available free disk space, and a determination made if there would be enough space available if all the recordings scheduled before it are completed. The use of the warnings could be made optional in the config.

Another really useful feature I think would be to allow you to specify a list of additional locations on other disks at which recordings should be stored if the previous location has no room left. This would allow one, for example, to seamlessly use 2 hard drives to store recordings using the available space on each. Otherwise, to expand capacity one needs to buy a bigger hard disk, rather than just adding an additional hard disk.
