Hi,

I'm a newbie really struggling with this - I hope someone can give me some pointers. I have a Leadtek Winfast PVR2000 card in a Windows XP Pro PC. Broadcast tv quality is brilliant, but what I really bought the card for was to transfer my daughters VHS video collection to DVD as the tapes are beginning to wear out.

My video only has a single SCART socket, so I bought this lead combo .

The supplied SCART adapter plugs into the VCR and connects to a 3 cable lead with phonos at the SCART adaptor end and a 3.5in jack and s-video male plug at the PC end. The 3.5in jack plugs into my sound card and the s-video plug plugs into a converter lead supplied with the card, which then plugs into the tv card.

I have posted a capture of the kind of interference pattern I'm getting at:

I have tried to relocate the capture card as far away from the graphics card as possible. The broadcast image is better, I think, but the image from the VHS recorder is the same.

Please note that the interference pattern occurs when I am just playing the video recorder 'live' through the capture card, so it cannot be anything to do with my recording settings (I think).

Any suggestions for what's causing this and how to rectify it?

(Also, has anyone ever got any actual support response from Leadtek? I've posted through their web site, emailed to Holland and Taiwan on numerous occasions and not got a single response. Guess they are DeadTek!)

TIA

Ok I finally got everything working, fm, tv, etc.

However I can not get a VCR to work. I hooked up the cable to my VCR input. And then from my VCR output it went to the tv tuner (Hauppauge 150MCE). I also plugged in the composite cables from the vcr to tv tuner.

I can watch TV fine however I have to switch the cables around to be able to use the vcr (vcr out to tv).

It does not work how I have it now because it work fine But when turn the vcr on all of the channels become scribbly which I expected. But when I change it to channel 3 (this is the default of vcr) it is just scribbly, and it does the same on every channel.

How can I get it so where the TV and VCR will both work at the same time? I have the MCE edition so it did not come with any software like WinTv.

Hi, I added a new drive to store my video recordings on, moved the existing videos, changed the defaults through the config program, but the old recordings don't show up on the menu. New recordings are available, but not the old ones I moved.

Something I'm forgetting to do?

sub,

is there a quick way i can back up my settings for GBPVR? I am experimenting with making changes to channel numbers in 'Capture Sources' tab sticky when updating EPG with birty's program. But when it doesnt work, I have to key it all in by hand again. is a 'back-up settings' method available?

cheers

When changing channels from the computer I get no OSD. When I move the mouse over GB-PVR the OSD displays with channel, show, etc. Is there a way to get the OSD to display every time the channel is changed?

Thanks for your help.

Are there any limitations to bitrate/mono/stereo etc. for Shoutcast streams supported by Net Radio?

was having trouble with Intel PRO 100 VE on crossover cable To Mvp
G.U.I. Server Not found
remember reading about turning full duplex to half. tried numerous configurations.
the hardware was Intel PRO/100 VE onboard intel D845PESV motherboard
someone probably knows why just an f.y.i. incase anyone has trouble with
Intel PRO/100 VE or similiar.


while i was trying differnt things the mvp ran both gbpvr and btv on the mvp without having to do a thing on pc for instance start or stop services. didnt have to leave the sofa to toggle between the two i thought this was cool. Im pretty sure it only works when im using the mvp on the router.

I would like to be able to watch the live tv function in a smaller resized window but it only displays in fullscreen. I have the windowed box checked in the config utility. Everything works fantastic! Recording live tv was a snap! I'm using the hauppauge 150 card. Any help is appreciated!
Thanks,

I have a network windows xp pc (SP2) and i am trying use access a pc with windows 2k and gb-pvr. I am able to access it from other win 2k prof desktops on the network but not this xp pc. I am able to map a network drive to this pc. I add the url to my IE browser, and i do get the sign-on screen for gb-pvr. But I cannot sign on. I get an invalid password/user ID message.

I am thinking that it is an IE security issue or firewall issue? But I cannot figure out where...

Please help me....
