I've been trying to put together an audio CD (my first one) for my wife. I wrote one track to a CD-R for test purposes, but it would seem I can't write any more tracks. Is this normal? Can I overwrite this track to use the rest of the CD-R or is it dead?
I'm using Nero Express. Does using the function "Track AT Once" make any difference.
I'm using main concept dvd encoder /decoder for dvd playback...Works for the most part but is kinda of choppy when people or things move fairly fast..Right now its fine..but like its off and on..IM using an 800mhz celeron with 256mb ram... Dvds play perfect in vlc or wmp..So idk
I have the box checked for "Use Live Preview mode if possible", but apperintly it's not possible on my system. When I change the channel i get about a 5 second lag before the channel actualy channges.
Anyone else have this problem, and able to get Live Preview mode working?
I've got my Hauppauge PVR150MCE working fine in WinTV2k under XP pro SP2. When I add the card in GBPVR it complains the driver is not installed.. But it obviously is since WinTV2k works..
I tried uninstalling/reinstalling. Also tried the non-mce drivers in pure desperation.
Any ideas?
I apologize in advance since this post is quite long. Here's the problem(s):
1) My brother wanted my to record a college football game. I did a manual recording w/GB-PVR since using the program guide only showed the game would last for 3 hours and I figured they usually lasted longer. Anyway, I set the recording to last for 4 hours to be on the safe side.
2) After the recording finished, I browsed through it to see if it looked alright, and I noticed that in the last 2 minutes or so of the game, the recording would fast forward automatically (there may be other parts in that did this too, but given that I watched the game on TV, I didn't want to rewatch the whole thing again).
3) The game lasted about 3.5 hours. The previous game ran a few minutes longer than expected and my game ended before the 4 hours were up. So, I am going to use TSUNAMI-MPEG DVD EasyPack to cut out the end of the previous game and chop off the beginning of the next game.
4) The whole mpeg file is 9.73 GB and TMPGEnc (Tsunami) says it will be approx. 8.51 GB when it's done cutting it. I plan on burning this to 2 4.7 DVD-R discs.
5) My card is a Hauppage WinTV-PVR 350 and while the show was recording, I browsed a few web sites and read some email during the commercials on TV.
Questions:
----------
7) Did using my web browser and email client cause this problem or was it due to the length of the recording?
8) The new Tsunami program I have says it does something called "frame-level editing" or something like that, and I have all the default settings set. But, I wondering if this frame-level editing will fix the bad parts towards the end of the recording. If not, does anyone know of a program that will do this?
9) I have a friend who said something about using VirtualDub or VirtualDubMod to correct the problem (she knows a little more than I do, but is also an amateur). She also suggested using the ULead DVD Movie Factory that came with the card to fix it if the fore mentioned programs don't work. I've heard Movie Factory isn't as good as VirtualDub and other video-editing apps. Can you give me your opinion on this?
10) Won't I also have to redo the audio part of the mpeg separately since it automatically fast forwards too? If so, can you give me suggestions on a good program? Maybe VirtualDub or ffmpeg for this?

Thanks for taking the time to read this!
I'm having a problem with my Setup that intermittantly some of my recordings are blurry. It can't be a playback codec problem as they are blury played back on my MVP as well. I've attached a screenshot example. There seems to be no rhyme or reason to it. This recording was a 5am test match between Wales and NZ Allblacks so before I went to bed I checked things out - I set both tuners recording including the first tuner on the Sky Sport channel and played them both back and both were fine. I cancelled both recordings and set the 5am recording and lo and behold it was blurry. I've always had this problem but it used to be very rare - its happening a little more frequently now. My pc I record with is:
Shuttle SN95G5 ver 2.0
AMD Athlon 64 3200+
1 GB Ram
120GB Special Edition SATA Western Digital
Hauppauge WINTV 500MCE
I'm using the Cable setting rather than Antenna as otherwise I can't record Prime and Sky via my UHF decoder as the NZ tuner settings don't have the high frequencies - I understand theres a fix for this but I've always used the cable setting till now and generally don't like to change a winning recipe - allthough its not quite winning at present. I has happened on tv2, tv3 and Sky and I *THINK* with both tuners although sometimes its hard to be sure which tuner kicks in when taping many subsequent shows.
Anyone else had this - any ideas or thoughts? (P.S - Note the score - 34 - 3 Be VERY affraid Ireland/Scotland/Englang!!!!)
I'm trying real hard to get the wife to accept my new toy, and I'm close. I need to get the MyBlaster plugin working to control the pvr through MediaMVP before I get the thumbs up. I have the MyBlaster controlling my sat receiver using the program that came with it, and GB-PVR seems to recognize it when learning the codes from my remote, however, that's as far as it goes. I'm using the 45 button remote that came with my 350 card. Any help would be greatly appreciated, I don't want to be confined to using my new toy with a computer moniter!
I've decided to sell my Fusion5HDTV-Lite card. It works just fine with GB-PVR but I don't have an HDTV and don't like watching it on the computer monitor.
Anyway, it's only a couple months old and works well. It'll come in the original box with all the normal stuff that came with it (basically the card, a manual, and a CD). Asking $75 shipped in the U.S.
