I apologize if this is a silly question, but what type of units are used in the skins?

For example
<DrawRoundedRect loc="12,5" size="250,30" radius="10" borderWidth="3" borderColor="#2c363d" fillColor="#5d94c5"/>

Size="250,30" , would that be pixels relative on sizing based on the 720 x 480 background?

I designed a skin and having problems with positioning and sizing.

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

Not sure if this was referred to by anyone in the past (although I think I saw something somewhere...).

I have a wierd problem (I'm currently, as says in the title, using 0.95.16) and for some reason some shows are being recorded only for about 12 minutes. Not sure if there's a pattern or not (maybe the first show of every new day)...

According to the logs it looks like the show is being recorded fully (45 mins) but it is actually only about 12 minutes! (the file it self is as well about 1/4 of the supposed size).

Here's the GBPVRRecordingService.exe.log part referring to this problematic recording:

Okay, now i've installed the software (again thanks Sub), but now i can't update the emp, come up with a messge but goes to quick to read. I have a Hauppauge wintv-nova-t-usb2 with internet access.

Help!!!

Hi, I am another noob that is having trouble figuring this whole thing out. I live in the U.S and have direct t.v. service. So is it possible for me, with a t.v. tuner card (or two) and this software to record and timeshift all programs on my direct t.v. service, or can I only do that stuff to the t.v. that my tuner recieves? Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone,

First of all, sorry if the problem has already been discussed here but after having searched the forum, I didn't see someone having the issue I have.

I try to remotely watch recorded tv shows or divx videos thanks to the enhanced webadmin. I use VLC to watch the videos and it works for only 1 second, I mean I see only the first second of the video. The problem occurs on LAN and Internet tries and Avi or mpg, same issue. even if i let the video being dowload longer, the video don't go further.

Does anyone knows what could i do to make it works great ?

Thanks.

Hi. Hope someone can help.

i've just downloaded the softeware but i'm getting a error when trying to install it. The error is:-
Error 1305. error reading from file. (Then says the place name where the file is and yes the file is there) make sure the file exists.

Anyhelp would be great.

Thank

BR

Maybe things for next update:

1) Ability to use XGuide in previous look (2hr layout, for those w/ smaller screens and older eyes )
2) Ability to turn off delete, or make it harder. My 3yr old has learned how to skip and comskip, but I would feel better leaving him unattended in XRecord if I knew I could lock the delete button (or prevent his uncanny luck button-mashing).

So ive reinstalled gbpvr 3 times and registered zap2it 3 times and it keeps on showing my tvguide to be off by three hours. I go to watch vh1 the fablouls like and its bing in 05...wtf can someone help if not how to i set up XMLTV for the us? thanks

Is there any way to change how many channels show, and to increase the time line?

I love this site you have made it easy on us newbies
I started a thread that didn’t make a lot of sense because I didn’t understand what GBPVR was. I am a new at this and I am trying to put together my own HTPVR I was looking at a different web site and they discussed using beyond TV but now that I have been looking at your site this software you have seems incredible, not to mention the support. I have a few unanswered questions on setting this up.
I am going to circuit city today and would love answers to the first few questions ASAP please, the others can wait.

I am totally confused with the m-peg decoder devices, originally I read in a different forum to use the Hauppauge 150 but in your forum you discuss the PVR 250 and the PVR 350 I don’t understand the differences and it sounds like I need two of them or the PVR 500 if I want to be able to watch one program wile recording another?
Are there any drawbacks from one to the other?
If I get two should I get one MCE and one not?
The big question that nobody seems to know is the compatibility issue with there remote with dish network receivers 501 - 508 - and the 811. Will the IR-Blaster work with these I believe the 501 might not sure on the others???
If they don’t what other options do I have?
I am planning on buying the G-Force 6600GT but they have so many different brands and specs I am totally confused I do not have a APG slot so I have to use PCI and what is a PCIe ? I want to make sure I buy the right one.

these next questions can wait
Is there some advantage using there radio over the net radio?
This net radio seems pretty cool can I select songs I wish to record to automatically record?
I would like to use the net radio feature and if I do can I record songs like my PVR does selecting songs in advance?
In preview mode live TV ver 9.0 can I still watch the program I was wile surfing
When hitting buttons on the keyboard or remote wile recording “accidentally”, am I prompted before recording stops?
Do I need a designated phone line to use GBPVR? Or how often do I need to dial up to get listings?
If I started watching a program from the start and in the middle of the program wanted to record it would the recording start at the beginning or where I hit record?
How far in advance are the listings?

Thank you

Wireman
