I've tried DVDRipper and My Videos, but can't rip my DVD'S. With DVDRipper, if i choose iso or file I get a file not found error, almost like it can't find a utility? Are there any docs on how to setup the addons that DVDRIPPER or My Videos require, and were they should be installed
During my experiments with the tray icon project, I noticed a couple of things about the auto-start versions of GB-PVR that I wanted to pass along.
First, the GB-PVR sessions that are auto-started don't show up in the task bar (which is great), but I'm still seeing a window in the ALT-TAB program list. I think you can get the window off that list by setting it's "FormBorderStyle" to "FixedToolWindow" which would be nice if you have some time.
Second, when the Config tool restarts an auto-started version of GB-PVR, the tray icon from the previous instance is still visible in the tray until you mouse over it. I was hoping to find some way to tie into the shutdown process so I could manually remove the icon, but haven't figured out how yet. It doesn't look like the destructor for my plugin gets called during this particular type of shutdown, or am I missing something?
I spent some time playing around with a System Tray icon for the MVP and got it basically working using the IEventNotification interface.
I was wondering if there's a way I could hook into some of the MVP traffic so that I could display a "connected" versus "not connected" state.
I tried experimenting with the ICommandListener interface to see if that might generate lower level events messages but no luck. I couldn't find anything in the API that related specifically to the MVP, so please let me know if I'm overlooking something obvious.
I was considering using the Application.AddMessageFilter() approach that KingArgyle used for BleepBloop, but wasn't sure if MVP requests would be detectable that way.
I'm still seeing inconsistencies with the auto-transcode feature. I have it set to autoconvert dvr-ms -> mpeg2 using ASAP for the timing.
I just set 4 test recordings going on my Nova-t sources - one from 16:55 to 17:40 and the other three all from 17:00 to 17:30 (1/5 mins pre/post padding on all).
The GBPVRConvert.exe-native-3.log consists of just this and nothing else...
Code:
17:35:08.562 INFO Log started
17:35:08.562 VERBOSE SOURCE:D:\GB-PVR\8 Simple Rules for Dating My Teenage Daughter\8 Simple Rules for Dating My Teenage Daughter_20051026_17001730.dvr-ms DEST:D:\GB-PVR\8 Simple Rules for Dating My Teenage Daughter\8 Simple Rules for Dating My Teenage Daughter_20051026_17001730.mpg TYPE:MPEG-2 RECORDING_OID:4268
The mpg file didn't get created and the dvr-ms file still exists.
The -2 and -1 versions of the log show log started times of 17:37:08 and 17:39:08 respectively and show DB updates and successful transcode completion entries. In both cases the mpg files look OK and the dvr-ms files are deleted. Similarly the latest version of the log shows the 4th recording being successfully transcoded etc. starting at 17:45.
I checked Task Manager to see if there was a 'stuck' instance of the GBPVRConvert.exe running but there wasn't. I also opened the mdb to see if the programme oid was still in the [transcode_queue] table but it was gone.
Would it be possible to have a small TV window in GBPVR? Like a preview.
Let's say you're watching TV and you want to check the weather. You hit Menu then you go to the Weather tab. While you're checking the weather, you have a small window on the bottom left corner showing the TV show you're watching.
Or like when you're watching TV and you want to setup a recording in the TV guide you hit menu but you still can watch the show on a TV window somewhere on your screen (so you don't miss anything while you're doing other stuff)
what went wrong, why he didnt done the recording ?
Yesterday he didnt woke up overall to do the recording, i restartet the
machine, `coz it was about 2 weeks only in standby ...
Maybe a hint :
The subtitle yesterday and today were exactly the same, today it was the
second part of it, but no #2 or anything in the name.
The weather button doesn't appear when I use the Flat Blue High Visibility screen. As far as I know, I am using the latest versions of the skin and the plugin.
