I'm interested in GB-PVR solely for viewing/timeshifting/recording HDTV/Digital TV with my A180 card (no analog card at all in my system); I tried the latest release but couldn't seem to get it to work (wasn't in any of the config dropdowns).

I've checked the forums and around the late May timeframe at least there seemed to be some interest in this card, but I haven't seen anything since then, so...

Any plans/timeframe to support it?

--KS

I have been using an All-in-Wonder 9800SE for my TV for quite some time, but the software it comes with is rather clunky and tends to crash what is an otherwise very stable computer. So I thought I'd look for some new software, but downloading GB-PVR I'm not even sure if it supports the card? If so, which of the tuner source things should I select in the options (i.e. does anyone know what the TV tuner on this thing actually is?) I've also tried K!TV, but it gives a fuzzy picture and the sound keeps blipping. Is there perhaps something else that would be good to use?

Meanwhile, I'm using an Audigy 2 ZS for my sound, and am supposed to run a cable from a bit on my graphics card into the line-in for it to be able to record the TV sound (although it works without live). However, this set-up causes the sound to sometimes be replaced by really loud buzzing that I can't get to stop, and this happens with all the different types of software I've tried. Does anyone know what that could be about?

Thanks.

I hope that you will add in fine tuning to the gbpvr

It is a great program
thanks for all the hard work

Using the latest release and it's the best yet, love it!
But..
Something that bugs me occasionally is when I go to set a recording but can't because it overlaps with another by a small amount, usually 5 minutes. Channel 4 in the UK often have programs that start on the hour but finish 65 minutes later. It would be great if when this happens I could have extra options of 'record anyway (i.e. start five minutes late or finish 5 minutes early)' or 'Change the one it overlaps with by reducing by 5 minutes at start or finish'. At present I have to go and check the times of what it clashes with and then make a manual recording to suit. Chances are it's only adverts that will be missed most of the time anyway.
Does that make sense?
Thanks for all your efforts so far.

Wish there was a plug-in that will enable each GBPVR instance (whether on MVP or PC) to communicate with each other via a TEXT/CHAT box. Imagine being able to ask for a sandwich from the wife who is watching in the living room while sitting down on your PC in the basement. Texting can be done by the telephone keypad of the remote control.

An idea for plug-in developers. This will definitely set GBPVR from other PVRs.

"The latest version of the MVPScreenPosition plugin is v0.7. Attach:MVPScreenPositionv7.zipΔ

Unzip the .dll file in your plugin folder. "

I'm not at all sure this is the correct place to post this as i don't really know where the problem comes from.

Since all the talk about skins i've been trying several just to see. Normally i only use the mvp but it's easier to just pop a skin on the pc for a look. I've been using GBpvr's feature to use different skins on the pc and the mvp.

Whenever i have that feature enabled i notice that whatever task image is enabled in the pc skin is also the same one that shows up on the skin chosen for the mvp but only for the weather plugin.

For example if i have the bluemce2 on the pc and the flat blue hi vis on the mvp the little blue guy with the umbrella shows up on the flat blue hi vis skin.
This only happen in the weather plugin, all the rest show as they should

Any ideas where this comes from or how to fix it?

Has anyone tried the KWorld MCE200 Multimedia Card with GBPVR? It has a hardware MPEG2 encoder on board. Here's the specs:

Here's a fairly close-up photo of the board for the more techie types who would be able to tell from the chipset:

I'm only asking because it's currently on tremendous sale at Buy.com for only $29.99 after $50 mail-in rebate. My son is a little jealous of my GBPVR system, but he only has a lowly software based Hauppauge card in his system. I though this might be a cheap way to get him up and going with a nice GBPVR system. Heck, it even comes with a remote control.

At that price, I don't mind buying and trying if no one knows for sure that it will NOT work.

Thanks for any input!

My recordings don't appear to want to stop and I rec'v the following error msg on the screen.

Please see attachment. :mad:

I had asked about this one beofre, and just curious if it may be coming in the next update.

This is just the ability to hit record while watching something, and then exit to the guide w/o stopping the recording. It's only that it's a pain to mute the sound and leave live tv on all night if you're doing it before bed.
