I am planning on buying a PVR-150 instead of a 250 because of price, but one thing I am unsure about is how the video gets back to the TV. From the picture of the card it looks like it has 1 coax, 1 S-video and 1 composite connector. If I run my satellite to the PC through S-video, how does it go back to the tv? (sorry for the newb question). Also, how does the sound handling work, through the sound card or does the PVR card provide that functionality as well?

Thanks!

In Gppvr, I have No sound on some channels but if I surf up and down and back to channel it comes back. I have spent a week looking for a fix. Do you think its a manual tuning problem? I am in Canada. Hauppauge wintv-pvr-150

I cant seem to get the emulator in my programs to work. I have a snes emulator, but none of the roms are showing up. Am I typing the right command fields into the settings the right way (can someone give me basically an example of what it's supposed to look like [screenshot maybe]? Any help would be greatly appreciated.


*******UPDATE**********

I figured out how to get some roms to show up (I dont know how or what key the l is supposed to be or how to use it, so i can only get one type of rom extension.)

-Now everytime I try to go through the emulator and select a rom, the emulator crashes and I get a windows error report box. Is there a way to prevent this from happening?

I am using znes emulator.

OK - I'm having problems with slow opening of Mpeg2 files in mediaplayer and gbpvr - 8 second delay in WMP and 15 in GBPVR - these are the gbpvr.exe-native.log files from my original gbpvr pc and the new one, as you will see I get large delays at listing and saving graphfilers.


PC THATS WORKING WELL

As you can see appears to be long delays at get and save graphfiles....

Any help GREATLY appreciated.

Hi I have tried to convert a couple of Music DVD's to MPEG but it only converts the first track. Is there a way to convert the other tracks? When I play the DVD in my DVD player there are several tracks you can choose from, or you can play all.

I am attempting to use myblaster to control my satellite box through the gbpvr software. I am able to switch channels with the utility that came with myblaster, so I know that it works. When attempting to use the myblaster plugin provided by gbpvr, gbpvr software will contact the blaster during learning mode (can see the red LED when asking for #s), but will not attempt to change the channel when prompted to during regular use.
Could I have missed a step in the configuration of the myblaster plugin utility.
Or is there a way to use the software provided with myblaster as a channel change exe? If so would you be able to provide detailed instructions as to how, as i am pretty new at this format. Thanks in advance for any help.

after skipping a commercial i stopped getting any audio from gb=pvr. i then rebooted and still no luck...if you need a log file let me know...

I was wondering, when GBPVR records a show, how does it encode the audio? Is it just raw wav format, or does it use MP3 encoding? I have mp3 encoders installed on my system, but I'm not sure if GBPVR utilizes them or not, or what I would need to do to get it to do so.

Hello,

I'm receiving an unhandled exception from ArchiverUtility. Any ideas what is causing the issue?

Thanks,

Hi Sub,

Would you consider 'saving' the aspect ratio settings?

Basically, GBPVR will 'remember' the previous aspect ratio setting that was selected by the User.
I think its great that we can select the AR using F7. However, once a User has selected the AR, it would be a more intuitive user experience if GBPVR retains the AR the next time the User watches TV or video.
Of course, if the User then changes the AR again, it would also be retain as the new default AR.

This feature to be provided for live/recorded TV and videos to maintain consistent user experience.
