I'm sorry if I'm just being daft, but doesn't gbpvr come with more than just the default blue skin? The dropdown in config shows multiple skin choices but blows up quite ungracefully if I select any of the others. Are these supposed to be downloaded separately?
I looked in the skins sub-directories and it appears the only skin that has a complete installation is the default blue one, but the other standard ones listed do at least have a few files, but no where near a complete set. For instance, the Flat Blue - High Visibility skin just has two sub-directories in it's folder, a Common and something else, but all told it's only a few files, where the default Blue has many, many files. I reran the gbpvr installation thinking perhaps my install was simply screwed up, but that didn't appear to change anything.
Sorry if I'm being a newb here, but I've never tried another skin before.
Can some1 tell me if my signal strength is what is causing me to not be able to recieve any channels? freeview.co.uk say they dont have my postcode and the nearest one to me are listed as out of area, even though I live only 5 miles line of sight from the transmitter.
I have just purchased a Freecom DVB-T TV USB Stick and was hoping that I can used it with GBPVR. After reading a few thread I sent an email to Freecom support to ask if this was BDA complient and was informed that its not.
Is there anything I can do to make this card work with GBPVR? Does anyone know of software that may work with this card (I dont really want to use the software this card is supplied with)?
I am sorry for my third question, i am not sure if this is the right topic. Please move it, if not.
I use the GB-PVR meanwhile as standalone Software (the old myHTPC was deleted by me).
I can watch TV in super quality, all channels are available at cable. Now i have a question for that i didn't found an answer till now.
On my TV-Card (Hauppauge! WinTV PVR-150) is a Set-Top Box connected to the S-VHS IN. I would love to see my cinematic movies from my ISP over the Set-Top Box. But for that i have to change the channel from "normal" canal to S-VHS Input. How can i do this?
Through a lot of tweaking and reading here I've gotten to a point where I'm happy with playback in just about any format except one little nuisance. I have yet to watch an entire movie without one or 2 hickups where the picture freezes, sound continues and the picture then plays catch-up a second later.
I've tried to avoid all kind of scheduled tasks etc. that might mess things up, but I can't seem to identify the culprit here.
Do you guys have any good tips for identifying the cause of such intermittent slowdowns of the PC - or just how to get rid of them?
Hello again, i have a problem. I know, that it's possible to use the configure Tool to add some Tasks.
As a good HTPC i integrated a menu to start some games. This function works very good, but for one game.
It's Name is Grandia 2 for PC. If i want to start this game and the intro-Video want's to start, only the Message "Start Gameconfig.exe first" end the Gamestart aborts.
With Earth 2160 there are no problems.
I think that this has something to do with the uses Video-Codec by Grandia 2, or with some sort of Overlay using (i use VMR9 at GB-PVR).
I tried the option to hide GB-PVR if Application start and vice versa; nothing works.
Do you have any idea how i could solve this problem?
Is it possible to integrate two things within the TV-Module? I want to see an OSD for the Volume... if i raise or lower the Volume, i can't see anything. It's not the big Problem, but it were nice if you could integrate this one.
Another nice feature were be, if i could display the actual date and time, while watching tv.
Many thanks for reading my wish.
ps: please excuse my bad english, but i don't need to speak much english in my country... ^^
I bought 2 x Nova-T (90002) OEM cards about a week ago. I have just moved house and have no internet at home so its quite difficult to remember what is happening so I can check for fixes whilst Im at work. Anyway Ive brought in my entire gbpvr directory to see if anyone can help me at all...
My nova-t cards wont work. Im tuning to Hannington (my nearest transmitter) and Im in southern England. The cards are recognised by WinTV but no channels found. Ive tried DVB drivers 13 and 21 Hauppauge and browsing their forums. My PVR150 works perfect first time everytime. Ive tried only a single card as I understand there were originally driver issues with dual cards. Ive tried bdaScanType = 2. My firewall is turned off as this also may cause problems. I turn to gbpvr as Ive been using it for a while now and because of the logging system built into it.
I havent got any filters? - Ive seen this error in the config.exe.log
When I check my muxes, I only find Intervideo.
I purchased a WinTV PCR-150 to drop in my PC so I could enjoy some low cost pvr action till I can build my seperate PC. I haven;t installed it or its software yet, as I want to be sure that I can use the video out on my 9500 Pro to connect to my TV and be able to perform all the PVR functions and watch shows I've recorded.
The problem is I have my TV hooked up to the video out on my ATI-9500 Pro. My desktop displays fine, no problem. Bur when I attempt to play video through WinAMP or Media Player, everything is fine on my monitor, but where the video should be on TV, there is just a blank space. To be more specific, everything dsiplays on TV except for the actual video. I see the desktop, the controls, etc. but in the space where the video should be playing, its just blank.
Help?
