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!!

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

http://gbpvr.com/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Plugin.XRecord}}

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

v.43 2005-10-07
*xrecord-Recycler now deletes empty directories
*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-Speed jump (jrock)
*xguide-Fixed refresh bug (jrock)
*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.

*zapimport-added catch for exception if failed to compact the database.
*zapinterface-added mutexs to make it thread safe. Should fix
wparam=0x28 lparam=0x500001 result=0x0 : System.InvalidOperationException: ExecuteReader requires

an open and available Connection. The connection's current state is Open, Executing.

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

http://www.chaintech.com.tw/tw/eng/produ...&PISNo=198

Is there anything I need to do specifically so that I can show information in a small box on the screen while GBPVR is open (for example something I should inherit)? Or am I supposed to just use System.Drawing and just draw out what I want?

I do not want my own menu or plugin screens like other plugins, as my plugin will only show small information windows at the bottom of the screen based on other events, preferrably it can do this no matter what screen or mode GBPVR is in.

Thank you,
Mitchel

Finally got FM radio to work with my PVR-500MCE. Just added a new station to my FM radio, it works but can't change the name of the station. Also, scanning seems to not do anything. I was able to add in a previous version of GBPVR but the latest just does not want to change the name from UNKNOWN

I tried the latest upgrade, and it failed with this error, tried putting the old version back on still errors now. Tried uninstalling and removing everything from the directory. No luck. PLEASE PLEASE help I love this program and been using it for ages!!

The error happens when I OK from the config app.

See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just in time (JIT) debugging, the config file for this
application or machine (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the machine
rather than being handled by this dialog.

Did any one happen to PVR the Alias season premier on 9/29? If so, do you still have it?

Please let me know if you did. My wife is not happy that we missed it because I deleted the scheduled recording on accident!!

Thanks,

Help, I have tried playing with many different settings and continue to have the front-end lock up. Here is my log of where it goes nuts.
