So I just installed GBPVR a few hours ago. Set it up to record and all, and then showed some of the "cool" features like the TV Guide and stuff to my brother.

Now I stepped out to cook some dinner and I knew that the stuff I scheduled to record was coming so I left it there. So while GBPVR was recording, my brother decided to watch some TV using GBPVR, now of course it won't let him because it's recording. Now he decided to watch what was recording and out pops an error message and GBPVR hangs.

I restarted the computer and tried to see what happened. I can still watch TV using GBPVR but now there's some sort of 1 inch grey bar on the bottom of the screen which "ghosts" the video showing. And I get alot of scanlines when there's some fast moving stuff showing.

I deleted all the drivers from the system using the hwclean.exe utility from hauppauge and reinstalled. Unfortunately it didn't help.

Can you guys offer any suggestions what else I can do?

Oops.. forgot, I'm using WinTV PVR USB 2.0

Does this software run if i have vstream? or is it only the hardware thats already in the program. Its a usb 2.0 external video capture device.

I have a MSI geforce 4 mx 440 , i also have haup pvr-150. can i use the svideo in on the video card instead of the svideo on the 150.

I've got 2 PVR-150's (one MCE, one standard). Lately when I'm watching live TV GBPVR will pop me to the main menu when a scheduled recording starts. Here's the relevant portion of my gbpvr.exe.log. Let me know if you need to see anything else.

Newbe question here.

I have loaded gbpvr on Two PCs, one 1 Ghz and one 3Ghz (thinking I needed a faster CPU).

I want to use the static web browsing.

It is slow to not usable. Seems to lock up for about 60 seconds.
The RRS feed plug in works great. I have a very hi speed internet connection.

Is this normal. Am I missing something.

I am using the MCE 2005 remote, is that it?

The web pages are just the default ones that come with it like tech bargains, they are super fast in IE.

Anyone else get this to work fast so its usable?

Hi I have had this card for 4 mos or so. But I have been unhappy with the scheduling software that came with it. I spent 3 hours reading through this forum last night tryingto figure out why I can't view live Tv with this software. I have the Hauppauge PVR 150 TO GO card. If I understand what I have been reading it sounds like I need to install Mpeg2 codec for it to work?
When I try and run live TV it gives a msg saying failed to locate configured device. Here are the specs of my Machine WIn XP pro Sp2 P4 3.0 HT 1 gig dual channel 2 120 gig drives. Here is a log that I just captured as well. NOt sure if this will help in solving my problem. Any help would be great as I consider myself somewhat technical but can't seem to figure this out. I really hate reinstalling everything for this card but that might be what is needed.

Hello - I've installed the videoarchiver plugin, download two of the latest skins (BlueMCE2 and XMEDIA), and checked the box next to videoarchiver in the config/plugin/menu and plugins dialog box. However, a videoarchiver "button" does not appear in GB-PVR; all of the other plugins I check and uncheck will appear and dissapear thought. I tried reinstalling with no success. Does anybody know why this is happening? I am a newbie but a fast learner.

After adding meny plugins, the main menu is getting rather large. It would be nice to put some of the items in another folder called 'Other' or something, so that only the items I most frequently use are on the front menu.

Thanks,
Greg

Hi,

I have got the AverTV Hybrid + FM Cardbus (E506) PCMCIA card and was wondering if it may work with GBPVR.

I would have tried graphedt however my notebook is going to repair (luckily I have extended warranty) and will probably be returned in a week or so.

Has anyone configurerd got this card working in gpbvr?

I have found the following part for mediaportal (if this is of any help):

I've used and enjoyed gbpvr for 6 months but i still can't get my radio to work. It pops no errors, but i still get no sound. If i click play and then alt-tab to windows, i see that the tray icon is green and 'recording live tv preview'. Could someone take a look at my logs and tell me what i am missing?
