I am using GB-PVR with my WinTV PVR-350 with TV out. TV out works fine mostly, but for some reason, the TV out goes to a solid red screen on my TV. I can go back to the menu screen on my PC and still navigate with the IR remote but I can't get rid of the red screen on my TV. The only way to fix this is to restart GB-PVR, but I don't wanna do that while I am watching/recording a program.

any ideas?

After trying gbpvr a couple of months ago with limited success, I spent some time trying MCE2005 and the FusionHDTV system as I have a FusionHDTV Plus card.

On both these systems I would get a lockup of one sort or another at least once a day and the wife was getting ready to walk out.

I have over the past couple of weeks installed the latest version of gbpvr and must say that the experience has been excellent.

The installation went without a hitch and I haven't had anything lockup since the installation over a week ago.

Great work Sub.

There is one small annoyance and that is when you select a program from the TV Guide the options are:

Exit
Quick Rec
Record
Watch

and the Exit option has the focus.

I would have thought the object of selecting the program was to watch it and wonder why that option doesn't have the focus, a simple click OK on the remote and you are watching the program, now you have to move the remote down 3 times before selecting the OK button, it may seem as small issue but believe me for the wife it is a problem.

Is it possible to provide a configuration option to select which item to be the default highlight?

Regardless of the above I believe gbpvr is leaving the other system behind.

Does gbpvr support the sabrent SAA7130 TV/FM capture card with remote? if not what are the chances of it being supported anytime soon? gbpvr looks sweet and i cant wait to get it running on my machine. keep up the great work.

File conversions on archive.

If you are like me then you use VA's archive function to move older recordings to a second drive. Wouldn't it be nice if VA could convert the recording to, say, an .avi using GB-PVR's new conversion features while transfering the recordings to your back-up drive? It certainly would...

When I try to playback any tv show using the gbpvr player, there is about a 1 inch flashing bar on the bottom of the screen. I am guessing there is some setting that needs to be changed for this because if I play the video on mediaplayer it plays back fine. Has anyone got any ideas for how to fix this?
Thanks,

I've got a Roslyn tuner card, and would like to be able to use the audio inputs to record audio tracks. Will GB-PVR do this? If not now - in the future? If not then, do you know of any other audio recording software that will work with the Roslyn card?

Thanks,

Anyone else have this problem? Ever since I have connected my MVP I can no longer see PC's in my workgroup. I can access them by IP, or by \\{servername}\shared dir but not when browsing. It's not a big deal, but I am not thrilled about it either.

When I first installed GBPVR a week or so ago, the CPU usage was about 35-40% vs. the Fusion v3.11 I was running which was (and is) about 40-45%.

Then for some reason CPU usage on GB-PVR went up to 80-85% in LiveTV mode.
And now there is a distinct stutter in many channels.

I've tried different settings to no avail.

My system:
Dell Dim 8300 P4 2.8 800FSB with HT (though I'd turned HT off)
128MB Geforce 5200 8x AGP with Aperture at 128
512MB DDR2 400 memory
WinXP with all upgrades
Fusion 5 Gold+ (watch only OTA HD)

Without GB-PVR on, CPU usage is <5%

Config settings:
Video Decoder ZuluBDAHDTV or Nvidea (no real diff between the 2)
VMR9 (I tried overlay -- there was some but not substantial improvement)
on Misc tab:
Live preview unchecked (I've tried checked with passthru and unchecked)
MS-DVR for Mux

What else should I try?

Thanks,

I'm thinking of something kinda like addressbook, but it's a simple movie database. I record and burn them on DVDs, and sometimes, I forget that I have them and re-record them. Maybe if after burning something, you can copy it to the database, and it'll show me a list of the movies I have.

How exactly does GBPVR get the artwork for the different shows. I works most of the time but I noticed for one show that 'The Thomas Crown Affair' artwork was retrieved for 'Thomas and Friends', ie. Thomas the Tank Engine. :p
