Sub, thanks for mentioning the Cyberlink registry settings in this thread. As much time as I spend on these boards and tweaking my installation, I don't know how I missed this. I wondered why the mini-guide didn't work for me. I have a question though.
Do I understand correctly that even if you have enabled VMR 9 in config, without this reg setting the Cyberlink decoders were switching to Overlay mode?
Personally, I found adding the hardware setting, UIUseHVA, and the EnableVMR setting helped quite a bit (I think it's just the UIUseHVA that made the difference), but when I used EnableVMR9, playback suffered tremendously. I guess that means my system doesn't have enough horsepower for VMR9?
Looking at the wiki for some more information about VMR I noticed another tidbit I'd missed. It says that neither VMR 7 or 9 are supported in Windows 2k... but this isn't right, is it? If so, then why does the EnableVMR9 setting have any impact on my system if all my system can do is Overlay anyway? Assuming the wiki is inaccurate, and I've found other info on the web that contradicts it, without the EnableVMR9 setting, but with EnableVMR does that mean my system is really using VMR7? And if so, besides the Mini-guide is there anything I'm losing between VMR7 and VMR9?
I'd be happy to update the wiki page to explain differences between the two in GB-PVR, but I'd have to know what they are first.
Sometimes, and moreso lately, gb-pvr just forgets to record my shows. If I update the EPG or schedule another recording, it magically remembers my previous requests and begins recording (if something had been previously scheduled at that time).
This behavior began after upgrading to the version with the built in divx encoding. Now besides the fact that no matter what codec I choose nothing happens to my files once they are complete (no conversion). I'm running 0.94.13

I've just changed from the Hauppauge Remote receiver to using the USB-UIRT receiver.
Is there any what of teaching the USB-UIRT 2 remote controls, say my Hauppauge one (the one it has currently learnt) and save another one, such as my Yamaha receiver one. So I can use either remote to control GBPVR??
What can prevent the on screen display from working? I can't seem to get any OSD functions to appear such as miniguide. What other tests can I run? Is it a codec issue? Clicked on a wrong button in config? Is it a video card limitation?
I've been playing with many PVR apps over the past 3-4 months. Is my system just messed up from all the apps? I was thinking of formating and starting over.
See components in signature. I use Cyberlink PowerDVD5 for mpeg2 decoding.
I lost my shutdown plugin from the main menu. I just rebooted my machine, then I lost my shutdown plugin. Checked in config everything was checked out correct. reinstalled it and checked skins, everything checks out fine
I've been having a problem playing back .AVI files using GbPVR over the MVP. Specifically XvID's and DivX recorded AVI files. The sound and video won't sync up.
Well -- today -- for grins and giggles I turned off GbPVR completely, started the latest HauPPauge MVP software (the one on the website in Beta), and guess what...?? All of my AVI files played "PERFECTLY!" I mean ''flawlessly''. I was floored... Everyone said it was an installed codec issue, and I've been beating my head against the wall following all kinds of advise -- I mean weird stuff -- just short of sacrificing a goat on my kitchen counter, I don't know what else I could have done...
SO -- it's the MVP Transcoder that was built with the GBPVR application that is causing the sync errors....
At least now I can play some of those recorded episodes of the Sopranos. I just have to shut down GbPVR & start the Hauppauge application everytime I want to watch them....
Sub -- if you are reading -- and if it's on your to-do list, give it a shot and see if you have any of the same results... I was just running the 'straight' Hauppauge software, nothing else outside of installed native codecs.
