Here's a thought: Adding/Allowing more users to access the web, but with less 'rights'. So they can maybe just play the recordings and see the guide, but are not allowed to schedule the recordings or delete them (or manage them in any other way)

I've tried two CDs but CD ripper inside My Music doesn't get any CD information from us.freedb.org.

Any ideas on how to troubleshoot? I've looked on the site and the CDs are there. The files rip to a directory of a jumble of numbers and tracks are named track01.mp3 etc. No ID3 tags are inserted either.

I can use EAC on the same CDs and it works fine.

On another note, is there any way to remove a song from a playlist?

It's probably asked at least once/twice a week, but can anyone reccommend a card for gbpvr use in the UK?

Freeview capture would be great, USB prefered, not too fussed about remote controls etc.

Cheap is also good but i've got to pay out, so be it because the gbpvr software looks great!

It'll be running on a 2GHZ XP machine with plenty of RAM etc.

Open to suggestions!

I followed the instructions in the install notes file, moving the 2 dll's, but the plugin does not show up on the plugin's tab.

i didn't have a "Panels" directory, so I created one and moved the xml file there.

thx.

Greetings,

I have a question re. SKY TV in the UK.

Does anyone know if it's possible to use GBPVR to record SKY TV onto a PC hard disc using a SCART-to-S-Video cable from the SKY STB to the PC?

I can record analogue using RF out on the SKY box to RF in on a Hauppauge 350 card. It's watchable, but the quality isn't as good as the SCART output to a plain old, common or garden TV.

Thanks.

Graves.

I installed gbpvr last night and everything is working well except for the tv guide.
It shows up with no program info.

I am using zap2it and the epg updates are successfull.
I can also manually search for shows


any clue?

This is my first post. It is time for me to give something back to this forum and this great PVR software.....

I started using GBPVR a couple of months ago. The software delivered everything I was after, but I had continuing problems where I was unable to obtain 5.1 Audio from DVD (either ripped ISO of DVD disk) through SPDIF connection to my receiver from GBPVR. This was strange as DVD playback worked without fault through the PowerDVD application directly. All I was getting through GBPVR was PCM encoded stereo. I tried completely rebuilding my machine, various patches for PowerDVD, driver upgrades for the sound card, and trying combinations of almost every setting in the Config of GBPVR. There were a couple of hints on this forum that looked like they would be successful (ie set SPDIF in WMP), but still had no luck.

Finally I stumbled onto a discussion in a Medio forum and eureka I had 5.1. The trick is a small registry tweak to specifically tell PowerDVD to use the SPDIF output when being used through GBPVR. For PowerDVD, each application can have separate default audio settings (or so it appears). See below:

HKEY_Current_User\Software\Cyberlink\Common\Claud\gbpvr -> "AuDsInterface"=dword:00000004

I think this was previously set to 2. Once changed to 4, 5.1 was enabled from the SPDIF connection to my receiver.

As an aside on the audio discussion. I was also having minor problems with the DVD picture breaking up in GBPVR. I changed from VMR9 to Overlay mode, and now the picture is perfect also.

Apart from these issues with DVD playback, the software is the best I have seen. I am now a convert and have hung up my copy of Showshifter. Keep up the good work Sub.

anyone know of any descent program for cutting out commericals... and/or if comskip has a way of cutting out the commericals it finds like when in gbpvr?

I am after a TV card with Composite In which is supported by GBPVR. I would like to capture the channels from my Sky Box. It should also have a remote which is fully supported by GBPVR.

The tuner part can be Analog or Digital. Obviously Digital would be prefered.

I am open to all suggestions!

HELP,

Wife Acceptance Factor just gone down a very large amount,
I scheduled a recording of "waking the dead" on bbc1 on sunday and monday both of which recorded as normal but with one weird problem, the audio was badly corrupted with a low rumble throughout and consequently was unlistenable.

A reboot of the pc seems to cleared the problem and it is now recording correctly again, having looked at the recordings with winamp it reported that the audio was 48khz 16 bit stereo (5250kbps) rather than the normal 224 kbps

I am using latest gbpvr and a hauppauge 350 no other recordings have ever failed and I'm at a loss as to what could have caused the problem.

nothing has been upgraded recently and other recordings last week all worked correctly.

there is nothing obviously different in the logfiles.

The only other thing I did before these scheduled recordings was to use
the nanocosmos mpeg editor & ulead dvd movie factory to copy a couple of episodes of ironically waking the dead to dvd for a friend, which having watched this dvd curiously has the audio about 1/4 sec out of sync, I have never copied something to dvd before so could I have done something during this which upset the system ?

Has anybody any idea what the problem might have been. I know it wasnt the input audio as I watched a breif bit of the program on each evening just to check the sattelite box was on the correct station.

Could any kind UK based person supply me with a dvd or video of the two episodes if so please contact me off list.

She who must be obeyed is already saying we had better use a vcr for anything that really matters, despite the fact I have recorded hundreds of programs over the last year or so

Any help greatly appreciated

thanks in advance
