I've been reading up on GB-PVR, and it looks awesome. The one thing I haven't seen is a way to watch tv while browsing the EPG, but maybe I missed it. Is this not standard on GB-PVR? Or is there any plugin that will do it?
Small request for Video Archive. When editing a recurring recording, could the option for how many episodes to keep be added. It's on subs default recordings scheduler, but not on any of the plugins that allow you to update the recordings.
What is it looking for here? Recent starts have been very slow, and it looks like the lag is between these two steps. It every re-open of GB, it has load times of 30-60sec bwteen the two.

What plugin uses/calls this? I've disabled a bunch, and it still shows up. It calls it 4x, too:

GB-PVR 0.94.13
try a search on your pc for GBPVR09413[1].msi
i think that is the file name? if someone has it it would be greatly appreciated
Unlike most of the other music libraries here this one fully uses a database as a media library. It was born out of the convoluted file structure I keep my MP3's in.
You can have files anywhere, and in any file structure, and this will present them in artist, album and title - if it can read the ID3v1 or ID3v2 tags.
I would consider this as a beta realease at the moment. I've tested it on 3 machines, including acros a network.
I have disabled all mouse events for the moment, and will add those in a later release (sorry to all those mouse users).
In upcoming releases, will be a random playlist generator, the ability to save playlists, and I will add automatic music library updating. At the moment it is only available from the Config screen.
Hope you enjoy.
Installation: Install adatabase to GBPVR directory, DLL to plugins and skin files....well you know where.
EDIT: Requires CommonGBPVRUtilities (from 8-10-2005 onwards). Not included in package, nor is the Common Dialogs skins.
EDIT: Will actually put in package, not source.
Can someone help me with a Wiki page, do I need a logon???
So I have been reading some articles about microsofts push for IPTV. It sounds kind of neat. Basically you can use your high speed internet connection to stream tv content to your tv. Most people have DSL or Cable.
I was wondering if bandwidth was fast enough to do that today.
I see two possibilities
1) Imagine something like shoutcast that people with tuner cards would connect to. It would determine when a tuner was idle and allow someone to stream your channel to their pvr over the internet. ( Is streamming illegal)
The problem with that is if you wanted to record something it might bump the user.
2) The other possibility is a central server with a list of all recorded shows and who has them. You can stream shows from different users machines.
I figure most people record at 3500 kilobits per second.
Which is about 460KB per second. Odds are the bandwidth is not there unless some fancy transcoding is done.
The idea is interesting. Obviously at the same time as the media is suing all of the peer to peer systems they are learning that they need some kind of system to distribute their content cheaply.
Eventually when the C# framework supports the IPTV protocols we can implement a plugin to use our current setups to view the content.
I've got four entries in my videos: new releases (over 100 entries), feature films, recordings and full DVDs. Whenever I go into one of my entries it takes over 5 seconds to get into the movies directory - it always makes me think that GBPVR is hanging. Any way for me to speed things up? Other than that, it's got all the functionality I need.
Got it all working (at last!), including TV Guide and Live TV.
The Host is a AmdXP2500 with 512mb ram, equipped with a PVR150.
As i Client I use a Celeron 2,5ghz with 256mb ram.
They are connected to my homenetwork, 100mbit.
Both computers running windows xp and the server got a perfectly working GBPVR that I also hooked up an MVP to.
The problem is that LiveTV very easily gets out of sync on the client and the
stream seams a bit "slow" as well as the GBPVR interface.
Anyone else tried to set up a client/server with 100% success?
Did you have any trouble sync on LiveTV. The picture lags but the sound continues = out of sync...
I really just want/need LiveTV to work on the client(s).
