If I have a directory protected by a PIN and I watch a movie in there & exit half way through, then it is added to the Paused Movies section, this I feel is a little poor.
But the worst part is if I try to watch the movie from the Pause Movies section I am not asked to enter the PIN to watch the movie.
I would prefer it if PIN protected movies were not listed in the Pause Movies folder. I would also like an option to hide protected folders within My Movies and a keyboard shortcut to show the protected folders.
Is there any easy way to program the channels when you know the frequencies? I'm not sure if it's because I'm in Ireland and using the UK settings, but I can't find all the channels and several are very bad reception when I use the TuningAssistant.
Also (for the few channels I have tuned) the picture is very stuttery. Is there any way to fix this? (The gfx card is an ATI Radeon PowerColor9250, connected to the TV with an s-video cable.)
Hi everyone, I'm currently working on building a HTPC. I'm running GB-PVR with a Hauppauge PVR 150 with remote and everything is currentlyl working acceptably, however I had two questions. Firstly, is there any way I can tweak the picture that I get while recording? Its a little blurry still. Also, I was wondering if there was a way to use the PVR 150 remote instead of a mouse. By this I mean use the arrow keys to move the mouse cursor and program two buttons to be the left and right mouse buttons. I'd like to be able to access folders and such using the mouse if thats possible. Thanks very much!
I have tried to schedule manual recordings with a High Quality setting, instead of the default Medium Quality, however always the actual recording is done with the Medium Quality setting properties.
Has this happened to anybody else too?
What I am actually trying to achieve is to record with a higher bit rate the the bit rate of the Medium Quality setting, however it appears that the recorded file always comes out with the properties of the Medium Quality setting.
I would greatly appreciate any kind of help in this problem.
When playing a DVD, I get a bar at the bottom that takes up about 10% of the window that's full of static. The top 90% is fine and clear, but the bottom part is flashing with various colors. I tried changing the Video Decoder from 'System Default' to 'Cyberlink Video/SP Decoder' and it fixes it, but the remote control no longer works. Can anyone help me out with this problem? Thanks in advance for your cooperation.
I'm still getting some inconsistent behavior with scheduled recording.
I set up a schedule and it will record during the appropriate time but it fails to change the channel of the cable box. I can change channels via the remote control, but the scheduled event doesn't seem to trigger the change automatically.
The other problem is that if I leave the application in Live TV mode, it will generate an error. It seems that it can't handle a change when live TV is on. See this thread:
I expected the behavior to be that if I was watching Live TV and it was time to start recording, Live TV would cease, the cable box would be changed to the defined channel and recording would proceed.
Tonight, I had set up to record David Letterman (Elvis Costello and the Imposters with Emmylou Harris) and the program was to start at 11:35; end at 12:37. I was watching a separate program directly from the Cable box, waiting for the recording to start 1 minute before the program started. 11:34 no, 11:35 no, 11:36 no, so I switched the cable box directly... The GBPVR app was on the main menu and was not on any specific channel.
Looking at the Recording > Pending menu inicated that the David Letterman show was being recorded.
Finally I waited through the David Letterman show and at 12:38 it was still recording.
At 12:39, the application generated an error. It was the same as reported before - R6025 - pure virtual function call (see link above).
12:45 I exit GBPVR and look at the Recording Service Status and it indicates that it is still recording the Letterman show. Restarting the Service from the task pane icon didn't change that. Finally I went to the Stop Service option on the Start > Programs > GBPVR menu and then restarted the service and that cleared the Letterman recording link.
I looked on disk for the video file and it had indeed recorded the Letterman show. The file creation time was 12:38.
Suggestions? The challenge of making this approvable by the wife is becoming difficult to defend...
I have PVR-150 and have been recording onto my Hard drive....
Now that I've got a lot of MPEG files, and I wanted to watch the MPEG files on TV, so I'd like to know if anyone can recommend a GOOD and cheap TV out video card?
I think it's better for me and family to watch the shows on bigger screen (TV) and since PVR150 doesn't have TV out.....
I don't want a fancy video card, just a card enough to transmit MPEG files onto TV screen and without any trouble (ie, delay)
Help, anyone?
ps, TV is within distance of the computer, and it also has S-video as well....
I have Gogetem get the trailers for me, and I have quicktime alternative installed to allow me to watch .mov files in gbpvr. I have My Videos set up to let me watch the trailers and while the trailers might be in widescreen format, my videos, stretches them to whatever ratio the tv is. Windows Media Player 10 plays the files in the right ratio. Is this a bug?
GB-PVR has been great, but i've been having a slight stuttering issue whether or not I use Encoder-Passthrough. When doing everyday things like surfing,rar'ing a simple file. GB-PVR stutters, so I set GB-PVR.EXE to priority AboveNormal and it has cured the problem. GB-PVR takes up a steady 13-16% CPU. My question is whether or not the priority sticks and will it affect anything? :confused: Thanks In Advance
I've got a Hauppauge 500 and I've got the Antenna plugged into the FM plug. I installed the mp3 encoder and now when I try to play/record fm radio GBPVR displays a message that says "No tuner was availible the enable you to record the requested station.".
I'm not quite sure what I'm supposed to do to get this to work. I poked around the logs and I couldn't see any errors. I searched the forums and peeked at the wiki and no joy.
