When playing video recordings, specificially DVD's either from the DVD or from a saved version on the HD, if I try to skip/pause/etc. while the video is playing the software locks up and does not accept any other controls. The video still plays, but I am no longer able to skip ahead/back or pause.
This seems to only occur with DVD recordings.
Same behaviour from either the remote or from the keyboard. I have been using this software for something like the last 6mos and I believe that in earlier revs (am using the most current) this was not a problem (for at least the last two revisions I have had this issue).
netstat shows a connection to weather.com from my machine by gbpvr.exe all the time, even when I'm not trying to view the weather info. It seems to make the connection every time gbpvr.exe starts, which starts when Windows starts.
Is it supposed to do this?
It looks like the end time for a manual recording is getting a non-zero value for seconds. This sometimes causes conflicts when scheduling back-to-back recordings. For example, if I schedule a manual recording for 10:00 to 10:30 the end time might actually be set to 10:30:26. Then if I try to schedule another one from 10:30 to 11:30, I get a conflict. Since the seconds can't be set in the time, shouldn't they be zero'ed out? The start time seems to be OK in that respect. I'm running 0.94.13.
I am wondering if there is a way to get gb-pvr to recognize it. The card is configured and works with the supplied software, but I see no listing for it in the gp-pvr setup.
Here is an article on UPnP/AV that I find quite informative.
The part I find most interesting is on RemoteUI. Looking at it, it looks like XRT2.1 would be rather easy for our DMA manufacturers to add to the firmware of our DMA's thus allowing us to have GUI's on our devices!
So we just need everone who owns one to email their vendor asking for RemoteUIand suggesting XRT 2.1 support.
So then we'd have a replacement for out MediaMVP's that would support more formats natively.

Ati AIW Radeon using tv out with a television (no moniotor)
I am currently having a problem with the new box i put together. Everything works as advertised except for this one minor thing that is driving me insane. I have a problem with live tv (no timeshift) with a weird focus problem. The problem happens when i watch programming that has little or no movement. Something in the setup is having difficulties dealing with this, and it makes parts of the image appear to jump in and out of focus. This is most prevalent with text, as I notice it the most often during sports games that have a score box in the corner. When the play stops and the camera stops moving, the sharpness of that box jumps all over and it is definately noticable.
I also noticed it with programs that have defined lines, like futurama. it goes from being real sharp to blurred to sharp. I don't know if its a problem with the MPEG decoding with the 500 or what. I've also tried to use different decoders, including the nvidia decoder, no difference. I used different programs and noticed the problem on both GBPBR and MediaPortal. I'm somewhat new to this PVR stuff so i'm not an expert by any means. I played around with the deinterlace settings as well as the hauppauge tweak settings, but i noticed no notable difference. Does anyone have any clue?
