Whenever you do a season record, it has the option 'keep recordings', and you can select a number, or 'all'. My question is, if you select a number (let's say 5), what does gbpvr do once you have 5 recordings of that show, does it stop scheduling new ones, or does it record new ones and overwrite the old ones? Sub....if it doesn't allow you to start overwriting the oldest file with a newer one whenever you have a limit set, do you plan to add this feature as it would be very useful?
I'm running 95.16 and it seems that since this version (could be a coincidence) all new recordings have a static like popping sound that varies throughout the recording. I am fairly positive is is happening on recording, not on playback. I hear it locally, or via MVP or even via ORB. I hear it when doing Live TV locally, even if I unplug the sound cable from my cable box, so it is not coming down with the show.
I do not hear it when using WinTV2000 for live or recorded TV.
Would any codecs come in to play when recording? I though that GBPVR just records the mpeg stream that the card captures/creates.
I always listen to music in random mode. It would be great if MyMusic could have a 'random over whole libary' mode. Kinda like iTunes's 'party shuffle' and MusicPlayer2's random feature.
I have the nova-t pci and am having trouble with the live tv video being out of sync with the audio. Sometimes ahead sometimes behind. It has been happening for definate with 9514 and 9516 not sure about before that. Seems to happen when I used processor hungry apps at the same time as watching live tv.
If I exit to the menu and then go back to tv as you would expect it is back to normal but will fall out of sync again.
Is there anyway to make gbpvr drop frames to keep the video in sync? Or is there another way of doing it?
I am using the nVidia Purevideo codecs which claim to be the best and lowest cpu usage but its still happening.
Since my PC under my TV runs alot of things for me. It cannot decode DVD smoothly. I am therefore considering buying an Xcard to help a lit in the re-play so I do not have to siwtch applications off before wathcing a DVD.
However, will GBPVR has OSD if I replay using Xcard. I am going to use VGA output from Xcard. From what I have seen, it looks like the OSD are broken in GBPVR when replay DVD using Xcard.
finaly I can watch avi files with ffmpeg,
but something isn't optimal, I can't jump into the file (forward etc)
because ffmpeg convert the file from the beginning to the end.
so I had the idea to use mplayer and not ffmpeg,
so if I press the forward key on the remote gbpvr could send the conresponding signal that mplayer makes a forward, and mplayer could stream his output as mpeg..
This is also used on VDR (video disk recorder) with the coresponding mplayer plugin..
Every day i use GB pvr i love it more and more (although new bugs pop up daily to keep me busy ), great work on this awesome product!. this days issue is that ive started to use the time shift option but i cant use it. each time i press begin time shift (i press rec) a black screen that says begining time shifting appears and after 3 secs it throws me back to the main menu. it happens every time i do it, i am not able to use the time shift option at all. i am using the latest version. would love to hear any ideas on how to fix it if they exist.
thx alot in advance for this great product, without it my htpc would be crap (i have tried All the other pvr they all suck compared to GB PVR)
