I can see 2 tuners in Windows Devices, and also can see 2 tuners when I show the "Show Status" (Recording Status) as Sleeping. When I run the GBPVR app, I can watch TV alright.
But how can I watch or record both tuners simultanesouly? The main GBPVR app doesn't seem to let me pick which tuner I want to watch or record. It seems its by default using only Tuner#2, even though I have 2 Capture Sources already setup. How can I pick which run I want to run the app against?
I have an aspect ratio problem on the MVP that started with the last release of GBPVR. The logo at the bottom of the screen is only 1/2 showing....never did that before. The overall picture also looks a little out of aspect.
The MVP is not set in 16:9....
Anyone having this problem or any ideas on how to fix it?
As you all know, we'd been having problems with poor performance several times a day on the web server that hosted http://forums.gbpvr.com. I've now moved the forums to a different box. Performance seems much better to me, but I'd be interested to hear how you've been finding it?
I'm also curious to hear whether people have accessed this site through http://forums.gbpvr.com or if they're having to use a direct URL? It may take a while for your machine to pickup the DNS changes, but I'm hoping to hear some people already have the correct DNS entries.
I am having some logistical issues association with GB-PVR being displayed on a remote TV via the TV out of the PC graphics card (i.e. shared use of computer for PC & TV). For example:
- the only way to get GB-PVR in full screen (no windows) mode onto the TV seems to be to drag the XP START bar across to the TV then launch it, then drag the START bar back to the PC monitor. OK when the TV is local, but difficult (or impossible) when it is in another room and you can't see the screen when you are moving the mouse, also
- when using the PC normally the cursor can drag across onto the TV, which would impact someone watching GB-PVR in the other room
Question - Is there a way to force ONLY GB-PVR to display on the TV output (i.e. secondary monitor) such that (a) it displays here by default and (b) no other applications, or the cursor etc can move across onto the secondary screen?
I have a simple problem. For some reason I can not change the info in the priority schedule.
I select xRecord/Scheduler/ Select a show (around the 35th item or so) Pick update and try to change it from "This chanel, this time" to "ALL" and turn keep duplicates off and pick save.
Now I can go back in/ Exit to the main menu and go back in/ reboot the computer and go back in but it does not change. It still wants to specify a chanel.
Wish there was a SLEEP option similar to the SLEEP function with the shutdown plug-in. I normally shutdown (hibernate) my PC remotely to conserve energy using the MVP but sometimes I fall asleep and the PC is left the whole time. It will not hibernate since GBPVR is still running on the MVP. To the Shutdown PLUG-IN developer, please add this feature.
Hi, am wondering if anybody else encountered this problem with some channels. I have included a short captured video to really describe the problem. I have included 2 images of the new distorted image and 1 of the image previously.
First of all, I never had this problem with this channel, I do have this problem with some other channels that I don't really watch. All of a sudden, without notice, the distortion appears. I hope somebody can help me with this, I tried the Tuning Assistant and Freqcopy but still nothing. I have the PVR-500MCE on a WinXP Pro SP2 machine. Could this have anything to do with PVR-500MCE not being compatible with WinXP Pro SP2, I did have couple of problems before with the drivers when I was installing it. Although, I have been using the PVR continously for 1 month without this problem.
Any help is most appreciated. If it's tuning, is there a software that will help me manually fine-tune the frequency/Adjust Vertical and horizontal hold.
This is my second day with the GB-PVR and I absolutely love it (I am running it on an ATI Wonder Elite / Theater Pro 550 Card with Cyberlink Video/SP MPEG2 Decoder).
I have a problem though with playing a video that's being recorded (in pending folder of Recordings menu). When I play the video, I get a black screen and the application hangs. I am required to kill it. It's quite strange. This is what I see in the GBPVR.exe.log file:

When I try to open the file with Windows Media Player, it says the file is in use by another application and I can't open it. Has anyone experienced this problem? What did they do to resolve it?
