I'm not sure how this is supposed to work, so bear with me.

Yesterday evening I wanted to record two shows one after the other, but on seperate channels. My pre- and post- padding is set to 5mins and I was worried that there would be a problem because I only have one tuner. When I came back to it this morning there was an error dialog saying something like "the GBPVR recording service has encountered an error and has to close". The first show had recorded OK, but the second failed.

This evening, I found that I wanted to record two shows back to back again, but this time on the same channel. I was curious to see what happened this time, so I hung around to see what happened at the changeover time. Sure enough, the first recording finished, and the error dialog was displayed again. I manually restarted the recording service and I'm pretty sure now the second show is recording OK, I can see the file size incrementing in Windows Explorer.

So the question is - if you have only one tuner and have pre- and post- padding specified, is GBPVR *supposed* to be able to handle back to back recordings?

I have installed the weather plugin and used msnbc.com to get my area code (Calgary, Canada). I set the website to celsius and used this area code. The weather plugin is displaying the right number but not in Celsius but Fahrenheit. Am I doing some wrong of is there a way around this. If somebody could help that would be great.

Thanks.

I have a Hauppage Nova-s in a PC and a Nova-t in other PC. Is posible install both in a same PC.

If I have multiple storage drives and a motherboard that doesn't support RAID; what is the best way to configure GBPVR? Is there a way to specify mutliple recording directories? If one drive filled up would it be possible for GBPVR to start using the second drive?

Ok, so when I go from My Videos back to the Main Menu--I get the following error:

Error: Index was out of range. Must be non-negative and less than the size of the collection. Parameter name: Index.

I'm looking at getting a MediaMVP, but I was also wondering if there is a software alternative that would allow another PC to share the media content/tv tuner from another gbpvr/pc? BeyondTV now has that feature (at additional cost).

Thanks,

Music Player works well until I try to initiate Icon View

The plugin spits me back to the main menu with - "Error:Object reference not set to an instance of an object". (If I set Display->Preview mode from config then this happens immediately as I invoke MusicPlayer.)

The musicplayer-PC log has the following entry :

01/12/2005 16:50:35[8] Got an unexpected key value 17
01/12/2005 16:50:35[8] Key data ControlKey, Control
01/12/2005 16:50:35[8] Control = True
01/12/2005 16:50:35[8] Shift = False
01/12/2005 16:50:35[8] Alt = False

Is this something to do with the artwork/images or is there something missing ?

Any ideas will be investigated fully.

I'd like to see a better search function. It has title search which IMHO is better than Tivo's but I'd like to be able to search by channel like you can do on Tivo. Say, pick Discovery and you only get a listing of what's on DSC.

Also, DVD autorun would be nice. Pop in a dvd and it plays. Also, DVD burning built-in with commercial skipping would be totally nice, but I think that's wishful thinking.

Late yesterday, I installed GBPVR and ran into following problems:

I had installed Hauppauge PVR 150 and updated the drivers and software on site and used WinTV2000 for a bit, the remote controled on/off, full screen/ back to window, volume, changing channels.

Yesterday evening installed GBPVR, configured to local analog cableco (zap2it), and when I started using LiveTV kept getting audio without video.

Used to the include (with gbpvr) tuner tool and could see all channels. After reading a few threads, decided I must be missing a "video decoder", so I download/installed latest version on intervideo windvd and VOILA I had live TV.

Then I started to try what the Remote did, channels were changing, and I can't remember what else. But I think (from what I recall, it was late), I was using the remote's volume control, and somehow I lost the volume.

I verified that it works fine in WinTV2000, but in GBPVR, it starts up with no sound (or almost none), I can see that the volume icon/control reacts to the remote control. If I "pump" up the volume on both my speakers and in the system tray/volume control I can hear a little bit, but it also means all other audio would blow speakers....

It seams to be on all channels (I saw some threads talking about some channels versus others). It worked great a a period of time.

Does anyone Have any Idea.

I saw in a thread to try the "beta" version of the driver from Hauppauge, but what I don't understand is that it worked for a while (and I'm pretty sure, it stopped working after using the remote's volume button). I did reboot a few times...

Thanks

I have been using GB-PVR for a couple of weeks and really like it, but have frequent crashes when a recording ends. Windows 2000 completely locks up and I have to reboot after the crash. Sometimes I can go a couple of days without a crash, but sometimes it crashes twice a day.

I am using a Hauppauge PVR-350 with the TV-out hooked to the TV. These crashes occured with GB-PVR 95.11 and the new 94.13. Live TV also crashes frequently when I press the stop button, but pressing Pause first, waiting a few seconds and then pressing Stop, seems to prevent Live TV from crashing. I had similar problems with Live TV using a SageTV trial, but scheduled recordings never crashed, and Live TV crashes only took down the SageTV app, not the entire Windows 2000 OS.

The last thing in the GBPVR.exe.log is:

12/1/2005 1:34:06 AM.762 VERBOSE [4] Direct Access got: 98246655 (255) - repeated over and over, then a partial line -
12/1/2005 1:34:06 AM.842 VERBOSE [4]

The recording service log only shows the start of the last recording.

I would really like to keep using GB-PVR if this crash can be resolved.
