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.
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?
Hey all... I installed gbpvr and right now I'm loving it just because of the cool integrated program guide and what not.
However there are a few minor things that are bugging me.
1) When I was just using the Hauppauge WinTV software, all I had to do to start it up to watch TV was hit the TV or power button on the remote and the software would start. Is there a way to do this?
2) FM Tuner doesn't work. No sound. Do I need to configure it somewhere?
I've got this set up:
1) PVR500 as Capture Device #1
2) PVR500 with FM as Capture Device #2
Device manager has them listed as Hauppage WinTV PVR PCI II (Tuner 1) & (Tuner 2). i am running XP sp2.
When I go to record two shows at the same time in GBpvr, It tells me I have a conflict and makes me cancel one of the recordings. I was using Snapstream trial and it worked. Why won't Gbpvr work?

Title says it all really, the last two nights I have had scheduled recordings that just stop writing to disk during the program - instead of an hour, I got 25 mins last night and 35 mins tonight.
There's plenty of hard disk space left, there is nothing in the logs that looks abnormal, nothing in the windows event logs, the recording service was showing that it was recording for the correct duration each time, but the files just stoped being updated.
I'm using a Nova-t PCI in a lowly Athlon 1.4Ghz machine, but it's recorded properly most time up until now (odd glitches now and again playing back the files, but no major problem). Using GBPVR version 0.94.13
