Just did a clean install on my machine. I'm using a Hauppage 500MCE card. I I don't seem to get any picture now in the LIve TV window. I do get picture with the Tuning Assistant though. Sound works fine. Just no picture. I've tried VMR9, VMR7 ad Overlay Manager, but it's all the same. I have installed DirectX 9c and updated to the latest NVidia graphcs driver for my video card.
I've also installed the Guardian Knot codec pack.
Any ideas?
Hey everyone, haven't been around due to lack of time recently but it is getting down to crunch time if I am to finish building this PVR before XMas :-P (I started in summer, lol)
Anyway, I have all of GB's functionality set up the way I like it and now I am trying to toss a different skin on there. However, when I change the skin to say, BlueMCE2 in config.exe GBPVR will not load.
As an experiment, I also tried the XMedia skins and they had the same result.
Frustrated, I deleted all the files under skin/BlueMCE2 and copied all of those from skins/Blue into the now empty BlueMCE2 folder. THAT worked...so I realy have no idea what is going on
My plugins:
TV Guide
Recorings
Search Guide
Live TV
DVD
Weaher
Theater
Any advice will be greatly appreciated :-D
edit: It is also worth noting that all files (including gbpvr) were downloaded 4 days ago or sooner so they all should be updated as far as they go.
Just a quick thank you. My family was watching Lost tonight, and my youngest daughter (1st Grade) wanted to watch something else. So she was able to watch a couple episodes of Popular Science for Kids via GBPVR and the VA plugin, all by herself on the MVP! I fired up the VA plugin, and sorted them by show, and a-z. She went through them by episode title and description and watched them.
I am still having problems with corrupted recordings. Running version 94.13, my recordings behave as if the sampling rate is messed up or something, as the file comes out too small, has major jumps/skips during the playback, out-of-sync audio, and an hour recording shows up as 45 minutes or less. I have gbpvr configured to run comskip while recording.
This began happening a few days after I made a fresh install of gbpvr. Worked fine for a while, then this problem started. I thought I had it fixed by dropping the old config.xml into the new gbpvr directory, and it seemed to work for one evening, then started back again.
One thing I have noticed is that the recording's log file (generated by comskip?) is much larger for the corrupted recordings, and contains primarily the error message "Panic volume buffer" repeated thousands of times.
Just installed the software, tried watching live tv.
It seems to work fine, except I can't get to the mini tv guide and can't get captioning to come up. I do have captions selected in the setup. All I can seem to do with livetv on is change the channel and exit.
I installed 9511 on a new computer with a fresh load of windows. When trying to use the Net Radio I get the following error "Failed to connect to radio station." It still shows the song name even though it says that it did not connect.
The system creates the gbnetradio-0.mp3 and I can play that in Windows Media Player.
The following is from the GBPVR.exe.log file:

I uninsalled version 9511 and install 9413. 9413 works fine.
MainConcept, Nero, and Cyberlink, but with those I get a diagonal line while I'm watching during fast movie scenes - sports for example. I'm using a PVR-150, and Radeon 9200
Also - what is the best setup for my harddrive. I have two hard drives - one 120 gb w/ XP, and one 40 gb w/ Linux that I will remove if it's better to record onto a second drive.
Trying to get the auto-convert function to work. If I select any codec other than WMV. This text shows up in read under the list box...
"This transcoding option required the Elecard MPEG2 filters to be installed"
I'm taking a stab at getting the newest comskip running again.
I've got SA working perfectly, but it doesn't output cuttermaran, and my videoredo trial ended
So...I'm trying to use comskip, comclean2, and renamerecordings.
I have comskip running during the recording, no problem.
It's outputting all the stuff I want, and with a little tuning, I should be OK.
Then I have (in postprocessing.bat) comclean2, which seems to be doing it's thing nicely.
I then have renamerecordings...and here's where I get messed up.
Because comskip outputs the cutlists before the file is renamed, they become useless. If comskip has worked properly, then comclean has given me a useable mpg. If comskip has missed, and comclean has cut a portion of show out, I still want the option of manually cutting the file, using the cutlist, but everything has been renamed. I have to open the .wme (for example) in notepad, copy the original name of the show, rename the mpg, then manually edit.
Is there any way around this?
Can I rename before comskip/comclean, or is there another way?
Second problem. With multiple tuners, I often have shows that end at exactly the same time. It seems that comclean only runs on the first show (I have no idea how it chooses which one of the 3). They all seem to get renamed properly.
Problem 3. My initial cut list is dead accurate, but the final cutlist only represents about 1/3 of the actual commercials. What am I supposed to change to rectify this? I can't figure it out, and I've been through the tuning manual at least 9 times.
