OK, wanted to test the transcode to WMV... I got a boatload of profiles to choose from, but aside from the ones that say 28.8Kbps, etc... I have no idea what they are.
Where are they defined in Windows, and how can I check out what those profiles are?
Not so much of a change to the software, just an XML file that will list of the CityLink Wellington webcams.
Only thing is, I've got no hosting space to put it on. I tried in the RssReader plugin configuration to add it with file://c:/webcam.xml but it doesn't seem to like it.
If you have the GBPVR web site unlocked then you should be able to add it on there.
Here is the contents of the file if you're interested:
I'd like to see an optio for DVD's to auto Scale (Much like Media Portal does). This feature would make it so much nicer to watch DVD's, and a lot simpler.
Ideally (for me at least)
DVD's - Auto-Scale to the scale that's on the DVD.
Mpeg/Recordings - Full Screen.
but making it selectable in the config app would be ideal so others can choose what they want.
FWIW: I've been using GBPVR for quite while now and have tried a lot of the others (MediaPortal, MythTV, Freevo) and by far this is the most stable, feature rich application for Windows I've seen
It's an ATI 9250 with DVI, VGA, and S-Video out. Also, VIVO
Does this hardware combo look ok?
I have some dumb questions, any answers are greatly appreciated:
1. Would the gbpvr box take the place of my cable box? If so, is there any reason that it wouldn't work, such as not being "official" hardware?
2. can I custom set recording resolutions, so for shows in HDTV, I could have it record in HDTV resolution, but for SDTV it would record at "normal" resolutions?
3. If I have the gbpvr box networked, could I grab shows and watch them on my other computer (which happens to have a very nice 1920 x 1200 screen)?
4. Hypothetically speaking, would the gbpvr be able to get more channels out of the digital cable? Would I need some sort of software signal descrambler?
5. VIVO: the card I linked to shows a special looking cable with four connectors on one end, and one single connector on the other, which I assume plugs into the card. The other 4 look like, maybe, different types of video connections? I assume 2 go out, 2 come in since it's VIVO? The two that look like they go out, do they look like an s-video cable and a component video cable? It would be nice to have both options, until I actually have a real HDTV. For now, the tv I'm using only has basic 1-cable component input.
I've been a pretty big fan of the XMedia skins that have been created for GBPvr! Very enjoyable!!
I have three questions...
1. They are a little fuzzy on my MVP (Hauppauge "everything" --150 card and MVP) It's not that bad, but I guess my eyesight is getting a little more fuzzy as I get older. The shows come in great, it's just that the menus in the skinds are a little fuzzy.
2. This newest version of xmedia (http://gbpvr.com/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Skin/XMedia) displays (in the static picture in Wiki) some additional graphics which don't show up in my version after I installed it. '1' is the "19" graphic (I'm not sure what that represents) and the other is the long graphic at the top. Instead I just have a blank space. I'm also not sure what that graphic is suppose to represent.
3. My last question is 'why' are there always 2 or 3 files to install? I'm sure there is a valid reason -- it's just not apparent to those of us who download and install it. It just seems kind of strange to download a series of files -- each with their own installation without any real reason why.... Not really a complaint, just curiosity..... One would think that a single installation file would be sufficient? (again -- not a complaint -- just curious).
Good work on the graphics...!! I really enjoy the skins
Is there any reason not to do this?
For instance 93.10 is working just right, the W and K have taken complete advantage of the 200gb drive capacity.
I'd like to test the features of the newest gbpvr version so I thought I'd just install in in another directory and play around with it when nobodys watching the TV and when they want to watch or record I'll just run gbpvr from the 93.10 subdriectory?
I only use the remote for GBPvr and was looking at the Manual. I noticed that if you don't have the ir software running that came with the PVR150 that GBPvr should be able to use the remote when it's not the window in focus. However this doesn't seem to be working for me.
I did check the use direct access box in the config. Any thoughts?
