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)

Has anyone tried the latest official drivers from the Hauppauge support site (2.2.23257)? They were just release on 10/14.

Wouldn't it be nice if they put release notes on there support site .

Here is a link to there support site for the PVR 150:

I suppose that I will be upgrading the drivers today and will give you all my impressions.

Hi,

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.

Every time I shutdown my pc, I get the following error message:

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.

Weather is enabled in the config.

For some reason I keep getting “Renovate my wardrobe” recorded and I would like it to stop doing that. I know if you look at my wardrobe it may need renovating but I'm just not that interested. (It's a big “way to go” to sub if he found a way for GB-PVR to do social commentary like that ) )


I have never asked it to record this show. I have checked and “Reoccurring” is empty. I have checked the PriorityRecordings.xlm for anything that would cause this show to be recorded..... Nothing.


Is there a way to tell why it's being recorded? How do I get it to stop?

Hi, my computer seems to be suffering from this known bug of XP which sometimes prevents computers from hibernating with more than 1GB RAM

http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=330909

My computer does hibernate when I invoke it or call it from the Shutdown plugin but maybe, in a future release, GBPVR can activate the hibernation/standby when the recording server/GB-PVR service is idle for a set number of minutes. I know this can be set in Power Management in control panel, but mine simply does not hibernate after the specified time.

I'm currently looking at components for a DVR solution, and I want to use GB-PVR. I'm thinking of using a Hauppauge WinTV-PVR-500 tuner card because I want dual tuners. However, I also need closed caption (CC) support.

I've read that the PVR-150/500 chipset has CC support, but that the drivers for Windows XP don't support it. However, the Windows XP Media Center Edition (MCE) drivers apparently do. I've also read threads on this forum that say I can run GB-PVR on Windows MCE.

So my question is this: If I get a PVR-500 tuner card, Windows MCE, and GB-PVR, will I be able to get closed captions?

Any help, even if it's only an informed guess, would be appreciated.

I can't seem to get the MyPictures plugin to work. I downloaded it (and the mydatabase) and extracted to the gbpvr folder. Config shows it with a check mark on the plugin tab. However, when I run gbprv it's not listed from the main memu. I know I've missed something obvious, but I sure can't figure it out. Any ideas???

btw, I'm using the latest media le skin (very nice!).

Hello.
To get rid of extensive spyware, I will be rebuilding my xp machine. Before I do so, is there any files from the gbpvr directory I can save that will allow me to keep the configuration and recordings I have currently (My recordings are on another physical drive that will remain intact). If I save the config.xml and the database, is that enough to get things back to the way they are now?

Thanks...
