I'm getting this really wierd behavior when I start watching a recording that is on-going. I started watching a football game Sunday after it had been recording for about 40 min. The game was still being recorded. Sometimes when I try to skip ahead 2 min., I end up somewhere way further than 2 min. ahead (like 20 - 30 min. ahead). This also happens with skip backward. During the football game Sunday I kept ending up back in the first quarter of the game when I had been watching in the fourth quarter! I finally figured out that sometimes this was happening when I tried to skip ahead further than there was time left in the recording (i.e. I tried to skip ahead 2 min. when there was only about 1 min. left on the recording). I wish this would just drop you at the end of the recording like it does when you're watching in Live TV mode. By the way, still love the software!
I use a DirecTV Tivo as my only source. There is a lag in the playback that makes it impossible to skip commercials. Well, you can skip the commercial, but when you see your show back on and push "Play" it takes quite a while to stop the FF, and resume playing. I have to hit the Instant Replay button 4-5 times to get back to where the commercial ends. This didn't happen until I installed .94.13. The other version was exactly like a regular TV. No lag at all. Which setting controls this?

It appears that it does work, but does someone have a rwc file already setup for GBPVR? The following thread says that he did it, but it would be nice to see how it was setup.
My Nova-T USB2 devices does not wake up when coming out of standby/hibernate. I suspect this is due to my power supply not holding the 5V rail up for USB devices when asleep but it could also be the mobo at fault.
so..
I copied gbpvrwake.exe to gbpvr folder and created wake.cmd to execute shutdown -r -t 0.
PC power options are set to go to standby after 20mins.
Now, when pc awakes from standby to record a show, it re-boots itself first! This ensures that the nova-t device (and thereby remote) is working correctly prior to recording a show.
Gotcha: You must run (double click) gbpvrwake.exe 1st to confirm to XP that you are happy for the application to run. You MUST also untick option to "ask this question in the future". (otherwise it doesn;t work)

Reven, excellent plugin update. I even learned how to update the skin to make it look like the old ME skin--i think i'm getting a hang of this.
I was wondering if at some point in the future you can add a 'reverse name' or 'reverse date' sort. I name my picture folders by the date, and it'd be nice to have the most recent ones on top.
Also, (this part should go in the plugin support section) i notice that when i'm scrolling down beyond the first page under list mode, the selection seems to be very slow. It takes a few seconds when it moves from one to the next
