I can't seem to find a log file that "spells" out and explains errors as they occur. I'd like to troubleshoot some of the random lock ups I experience when I schedule recordings. If someone could provide me with the location of the file and maybe some insight on where to start looking for probs... that'd be great
I'm not sure whether this should go in the Hardware forum, or the Support one, but I'll post here, and someone can tell me if I need to move. I just got a fresh instll of GBPVR up and running on a Chaintech Nforce2 board with an Athlon XP 2000+ and a PVR250. I originally had XP MCE installed on it, but I'd had problems with it, so I wanted to try GBPVR out. I did a fresh install of XP Pro, and installed GBPVR. So far, it's awesome, but I have a few questions about the MCE remote:
1. Its response is really slow, sometimes I have to wait a few seconds for the remote to "catch up" if I hit a couple buttons one after the other.
2. I've read here that the buttons should work as labelled, but that's not been my experience. If I go into "Live TV", in order to get to the guide I have to hit "Back" to go to the main menu, then choose the guide option. I don't have MCE installed any longer, it's just XP Pro, so is there a driver I need or something? Is there some way to configure the buttons on the remote?
If someone can help, I'd really appreciate it, this looks like really cool software, and I think it's everything I'm looking for.
when i'm watching live TV and i want to pause the picture i get flashing picture
i try all the options from the playback tab on the configuration file but nothing happen :mad:
I'm in the process of deciding which components I'd need to use for a PVR-type machine with GB-PVR at its centre. Having read the forum threads so far, I was hoping to ask people in the know whether GB-PVR is known to be compatible with any available USB device capable of viewing & recording Freeview in the UK?
I just noticed that gbpvr is recording programs of 4-30-05 but today is 5-1 and also the time is ahead by 3 hours. What coud it be? My clock and date are okay on my pc and the guide.
I've started a weekly "Deals & Steals" thread on my site where I post the latest special buys found in my weekly newspaper. I typically only post hardware/software that could be used in a HTPC; but the items can be used in regular computers as well.
I .. just want to know .. if you have a mutilple dish reciever setup, the IR will hit all of them .. I know there is a remote adress for my 5100 .. don'T know for 3100, but can GB PVR be configure to create the remote adress for each reveiver ?
Suggestion: Could GBPVR report an error message on screen when a recording has failed - esp due to disk space finished. even like a red dot or something, so fools like me don't keep recording and not realise nothing gonna be there.
