I think it would be very nice if you have a timeshifted recording and you can decide afterwards or during the recording that you can keep it.

Hello There,

I've been trying to figure out why I cant see the OSD. I have check the VMR9 in playback.

Is there anything else I need to do ?

Thanks, Stephan.

Pardon me if someone mentioned this before but I haven't seen anything about it.

I wish for the ability to set the colors and sizes of buttons on the main menu or in some other file that I can reference for all the other menus, like using CSS.

I have so many ideas for skins, then I think about how much time it will take to go thru EVERY xml file and make the change for every button and such, that I just stick with the first skin I did. For example, define the buttons and such in just one file...

<CompositeImage name="SelectedButtonImage" size="130,45">
<DrawRoundedRect loc="4,5" size="120,30" radius="10" borderWidth="4" borderColor="Black" fillColor="DarkBlue"/>
<DrawText text="@buttonText" loc="15,9" size="115,34" textStyle="ButtonText" align="Left" />
</CompositeImage>

Then reference that layout in all the other xml pages like...
<CompositeImage name="@SelectedButtonImage">

It would make skin design WAY easier and the theme would look the same across all menus. Then if plugin designers were to create their skins to reference these "styles", then no matter what skin the user was using, the plugins they install would look as if it were actually part of GB and not an add-on.

So basically, create a new skin by designing the 'look' using one menu, and you'd know it would carry across to all other menus/plugins. Skinners probably wouldn't even have to touch the skin files in each of the plugin directories!

Hi Sub,

Im experiencing 2 issues which appears to be specific to gbpvr itself.

1) The Tuning assistant displays the frequency of the previous channel (not the currently displayed channel). This is very misleading if you try entering the displayed frequency into the gbpvr recording source setup because it is the wrong frequency and does not work. This therefore appears to be a bug.

2) When you do enter the correct frequency into the gbpvr recording source, the NICAM sound is distorted and appears to be not centered on the NICAM carrier frequency. This issue is could be specific to PAL-B/G which requires a NICAM carrier frequency offset of 5.850MHz. If you enter the channel frequency directly into the registry and tell gbpvr to use that channel number then NICAM works correctly. This leads me to believe that gbpvr has a bug when entering the frequency directly in the recording source.

I have (finally) got these 2 devices (sort of) working in gbpvr but I am stuggling with one particular problem.

If I record a DVB channel that is not transmitted on analogue (e.g. discovery), it starts recording fine. But when I then try and record an analogue channel at the same time. only 2 channels work (Channel 4 and Five). BBC ONE, TWO and ITV1 all say "Recording conflict".

I can't work out what the difference is between the channels that work and those that don't.

I created the analogue channels manually to ensure that the channel names exactly matched those of the DVB. i.e I changed BBC 1 to BBC ONE

Any ideas?

Am generally totally delighted with GB-PVR -- most of the time, it works like a dream.. I do have a problem with web-scheduling, however. I've looked through the forums, but can't find an answer to my specific problem.

I can access all the web-scheduling functions perfectly through my home network and the internet. (The only shortcoming I have with it, is that in the event of a program clash, it doesn't allow you to cancel a pre-booked slot, but just refuses to record the new request (no error message or notification - something to be improved in the next version there...).)

My major problem is that, when I click on a recording listed as "Available", it does not stream. But I can open the same recording by navigating to the folder on the PVR machine, so it's not a network problem. I have the impression that, whichever media player I use (WMP, R/Player, W/Amp and others), they are trying to download the whole file, rather than buffer and play. Eventually, after many minutes of "Connecting...", they time-out and crash.

I've gone through every possibility I can think of. If anyone has any bright ideas, I'd be really grateful for them!! If anymore info is needed on my set-up, will happily provide!!

Steve

Not sure if this goes in the General or Here in Hardware. Please correct me if I am wrong.

I have 2 belkin routers one that connects to my MediaMVP and the other to my computer. Normally everything working GREAT!! Recently we have been having come power outages at our home that last about 30 mins or more. After these outages I lose wireless connection between the wireless routers. I have fix the problem about 3 time but I have not done the same thing each time to fix them. I just play with the configurations (which all seem to be correct but no wireless access) and they work. Once it took 15 minutes and the other times 5 min to fix no one thing seems to be wrong.

I have look several places for a good answer but found none.

My question for you guys is:
Has anybody else experienced this? If so what did you do to fix it?
Is there any suggestion that you gues have to fix this other than installing a battery backup to each router?
Is there another good source of info for me other that the belkin website?

Thanks in advance for your help

Sorry for the cross post Sub but I wanted to get the word out to fellow GB-PVR'ers.

A fake PSP update is out on the Net that once it is installed it erases some critical system files making your PSP a worthless brick. :eek:

Here is the article from Yahoo! News

I know I said I was not going to do a release this week.

*xrecord-Recycler now handles sub-directories.
*xrecord-fixed scheduler update save bug reported by (king argyle)
*xrecord-create sub directory when moving from recycle bin (from where it was).
*xrecord-after move to recycle bin delete the folder if empty.
*xrecord-fixed telephone style input
*xrecord-auto detect if the file was found in the recyle bin change status to recycled
*xsearch-fixed spelling of genres

*xguide-Fixed 100% cpu bug
*xguide-Fixed object referenced not found bug
*xguide-Fixed bug that did not show watch on a recording show when it was mid way.
*xguide-in skin-horiz.xml the
<SpecialElement name="Guide" loc="70,58" metadata="true" visibleChannels="8" channelRowHeight="38" showNavigation="false" borderWidth="2" rounded="false" showChannelIcons="true" showChannelNumberAlway="false" showRecordingBar="true" MinutePixels="3.5" MinuteDraw="180" minutesToMove="30"/>

**new attributes "metadata" - can be used to shut metadata off, color coding and repeat info.
**new attributes "colorCoding"- can just disable color coding if metadata is false so is colorCoding
values are true or false.

That way you can turn it off and get a speed increase.

Has anyone been able to get GBPVR to work with this card?
