I'm looking for another keyboard I could use from the couch and found this one. It is reasonably small (no numeric keypad) and has a built-in mouse and joystick and is supposed to fit nicely on your lap.
Maybe there are better options, so I was just wondering what other people are using.
I have just started using GB-PVR and it's perfect for my EPIA M10000, Hauppauge setup (Well done all involved). I have an issue with the VIA drivers where by the Overlay settings are too bright. I can adjust this in the Windows display settings, but changing the Saturation randomly affects the colours, they jump about as if I was changing the HUE.
I am using the THX optimiser with "The Phantom Menace" and "The Incredibles". The first screen shows 8 shades of white. All of which are white for me at the moment.
If I open WinDVD I can correct the brightness/saturation and get the colours right (or near enough, I'm not a total perfectionist). However when I save them and open GB-PVR (using the intervideo DVD player) they are still too bright. I assume the WinDVD settings are for WinDVD only and GB-PVR cannot use them?
Can GB-PVR control the brightness of the overlay, or the settings of the DVD playback.
I'm a bit confused and would really appreciate the help. :confused:
Just curious, to know how much disk space you have allocated for GBPVR ?
I had a 160GB disk, for recordings really (ok 1 dvd movie which we wanted to see but havent) and this weekend I found it was full. I am a bit surprised - didn't think we watched (or had to watch) that much. Delete the stuff we have seen.
I think GBPVR looks very promissing, already got the EPG running, also TV viewing and web radio works fine. But when I during TV viewing press the pause button on my remote to start timeshifting the GBPVR sw hangs with a black screen and a small text message that timeshift in being initiated (don't remember the exact wording). GBPVR never recovers and after some minuts I have to "kill" it from the task manager.
I followed the installation steps as described on http://www.gbpvr.com, what is wrong with my system?
The specs of my system:
-EPIA MII10000 motherboard 1GHz processor
-512MB RAM
-PVR-250 TV card (using MCE drivers for PVR250, could that be it?)
-MCE remote
-WIN XP MCE (don't use the MCE PVR sw as it doesn't work with the grafics card integrated on the EPIA motherboard).
I installed the webcam plugin. Config sees it and it is checked but when I go into GBPVR it is not there. Is there something I am doing wrong. Could someone point me in the right direction?

im trying to setup MSDE with my pictures, hopefully improving the speed (loading thumbnails for thousands of images can take awhile using an access database ). i read this thread http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php...t=database
and i installed MSDE, but im trying to set it up to work with my pictures, and i only want computers in the ip range 192.168.0.1-255 (ie my home network) to have access to the database, and my pictures uses these data types
- Memo (for filename)
- Number (double) (for last write time for the file)
- OLE Object (the thumbnail as a byte array)
so can anyone help me set this up, so its secure and i can trust no one on the internet can poll my database and screw it up. if i need to change some data types let me know, ill hopefully get this database going for my videos/music aswell, and set it up on my server so i only need one database for every copy of gbpvr i have running (which is only one, but i have big dreams ).
ps sorry for the stupid questions, but i need an idiots guide to MSDE .
I'd really like a setting that could prevent the RecordingService from searching the disks every 10-15 minutes or lengthen this period, as this spins up the disks and makes noise even when not using the TV-PC.
There's an entry in Support on this also, but I thought I'd add it here, since it's a feature request. Thank you.
