So Skype a few months ago released an open API. I have found a .NET port that seems to have some good functionality. I wanted to get some requirements and ideas for a UI.
Requirements -
View Buddy List ( with icon support )
Add a Buddy
Place a Active Call
View Missed Calls
View Active Calls
Mute Call
Current User Status
Other things
- View chat messages
- Send chat message
- Chat message history
- Version info
- Search for User
- Lookup user profile.
Is it better to structure it like theater or recordings? With a button for each type of operation
Buddy List, Active Calls, Missed Calls, Active Chats, Missed Chats etc....
I am not sure if I how much time I have to work on it but I might start it.
Wasn't sure where to post this so decided to put it here.
After many happy months running a dual tuner setup with GBPVR I decided it was time to utilize an extra couple of tuners I've had lying around from 'old' projects. This meant scrapping my beloved Silverstone LC11M case (only 2 expansion slots) and replacing it with a shiny new Silverstone SG01 (v. funky 'shuttle' like case with 4 slots! - definately reccomended for anyone who needs to take full advantage of a M-ATX board).
My new build now has 2 X GDI Black Gold Signature, 1 X Nebula PCI and 1 X Nova T USB 2 (I wired this into a header on the MB and mounted the unit internally to keep everything out of sight). I've gota admit that I was quite worried about how GBPVR would cope but after 4 days heavy testing it's solid as a rock and easily records 4 X DVB channels while watching a pre recorded show at the same time!!
Just out of interest I tried a couple of the 'other' pvr apps with my new config and only one even attempted to work...for about 30 seconds before complete lock up.
Hats off to Sub.....yet again GBPVR proves it's worth. Now I wonder where I could fit a fifth tuner?........

I bought one as it was a little cheaper than the hauppage . It works well with its own bundled software (which is relatively primative) but is a NIGHTMARE to set up with GBPVR seemingly due to various bda / muxer /demuxer issues. I've wasted many hours trying to set it up, so far without success. Others seem to be having similar problems buthave got there in the end. My advice would be to go for another card if you want to install GB-PVR. If anyone disagrees and has a surefire way of setting up a Twnhan DTB-T for GBPVR then put me out of my misery and post anm explanation ASAP!
I have added the MyPictures plugin, but it doesn't appear on the menu. I also get "Object reference not set to an instance of an object" errors on other screens. When trying to play mp3s or video and whenever i stop a recording from playing, i then get dumped back to the main menu.
Been looking around awhile for the answer to this - when restarting a Windows XP SP1 machine the GBPVR recording services start and run in the background - no problem.
How can I envoke GBPVR to show full screen at start-up. The system I am running GBPVR on will act soley as a PVR. I currently access the GBPVR system using "Simple Desktop" from a laptop over an in-house wireless network. GBPVR has been configured and is working very well, therefore access to it will be minimal, we also have an MVP for watching recorded media elsewhere in our house.
I use GB PVR and a Win TV 150 with the 45 button remote. I do all the necessaries like fix the buttons in Config and everything. All works fine its just, my volume won't go up past a certain level within GB PVR. If I keep hitting the volume up button it just goes to a certain level (about 15%) and stops. However, if I minimize to windows, I can raise it to max volume. What can I do to fix this? I'm using most recent versions of drivers and software.
wow...good stuffâ¦been using for a total of two hours so far....
If you could support the cyberlink remote that would be really cool....most of the buttons do work when I select MCE remote, except for the number pad....
As discussed on another thread, on the main menu there are little arrows that look like buttons...but there not...I just find it a bit annoying that you have to use the arrow keys.....
Channel display? Maybe I havenât found it but when watching live TV...it never seems to tell you what channel youâre on....
other than that...damn good...and you can't beat the price
