RW and Red has the same mapping, and it does cause problems. it will cause even more problems in the future, so i think its better to change them now (a lot of plugins will need to be altered, but its better now than later). so i suggest using
{ctrl}> = fastforward
{ctr}< = rewind

{ctrl}r = red (just to key with the other colour buttons)
{ctrl}b = blue
{ctrl}y = yellow
{ctrl}g = green

sub if you dont like using <>, choose whatever you want. it would just be nice if this little problem could be addressed soon.

also a irremote.ini file for the mvp (well some kind of remote config file which allows you to map buttons, eg "Full" on the mvp is wasted ie alt-enter cant be used).

I have installed GB-PVR to my Fujitsu-Siemens Activy, which is a Pentium III based set-top box, offered mainly to the German and UK markets. Mine was purchased in US for US use. Anyway, the motherboard features a Sigma Designs EM8400 hardware decoder built-in, sending overlay video to the built-in 2d graphic accelerator, a Cyberpro TVIA 5005. In some apps, I was able to enable software decoding using graphedit. Is this possible in GB-PVR? My cpu usage is way high (100%) without, although it runs fairly smoothly. Apparently the Sigma X-card option is incompatible, as its selection in options-->playback crash/freezes the program. I have also tried to use Sash's' Netstream2000 compatibility drivers, which is also EM8400 based (I think) but GB-PVR won't even boot if I force my Hardware to use those drivers.

The mini-guide does not come up when I press the green button or ctrl-G on my keyboard. Can anyone help?

Hi,

I am a disappointed user of the Plextor ConvertX PX-M402U. I was looking for a wdm driver for this device but I found gb-pvr. I like your tool but I have no tv here... I plan to develop some plugins soon as this is a very interesting project. But my first goal is to find or create a wdm or vfw driver for my device. So noone needs to install the windvdcreator software. And I want to use the device for my webcam and in virtual dub and other software. I think a good driver would benefit many people but Plextor will not provide it I guess. At least there is a linux sdk now.
Why I write this in your forum? I am interested in your GO7007SB plugin as you seem to understand the M402U's architecture better than me at this time. I can't find the source code of your GO7007SB plugin, is it available?
Do you have any good advice that might help building a vfw or wdm driver for this (or maybe even all GO7007SB) device?
I am student and it is not a commercial product I am talking about. Not even official work - I just need a good driver or alternative to the win dvd creator as this tool crashes way too often. I want to backup old Hi8-Videos to dvd and I really like the quiality of the plextor hardware but the software is not good enough for the money.

Anyone who can help please contact me. I don't even have to see my name on the resulting tool, I just need a driver *g*

Thankx a lot,

Richard

As far as I can tell, using the command-line option "-OnlyEmptyEpg" deletes all entries from the PROGRAMME table in the database unless they relate to a programme which has already been recorded or the programme is in there as a pending recording. Is it as simple as that?

I've written a utility to clean up my XMLTV EPG and was going to run it from a batch file with 'gbpvr -OnlyEmptyEpg' preceding it. It occurs to me that I could build this into the utility if all I have to do is wipe the table of relevant entries. Would that work and is it safe to do without breaking my system?

Cheers,
Brian

Hi all,
I just downloaded GB-PVR and i have to say it's a great program. Wasn't as easy to set up as 'usual' software but once i got it running it wouldn't stop .

I'm very new at this so don't be surprised if this might be a stupid question:
Ive been trying to get GBPVR to record to a SVCD compliant mpeg file. I've got it working, though i had to edit direct.ini. Unfortunately the filesizes get too large for my liking so i'd like to record at a variable bitrate.

First can i change the recording settings somewhere else then in direct.ini (in other words have i been doing it the stupid way), and secondly how can i set GBPVR up to record at a variable bitrate.

Thanks

Hi,
I currently have an older (4-years) ASUS G-Force 2 GTS, AGP-V7700 Deluxe video card. I will be buying a new Capture/PVR card. What is the best video output to use for my LCD projector TV. My projector has VGA in as well as S-video and Component. My Video card as VGA and S-Video out. Should I buy a Capture/PVR card with TV out as well?

PS I will be using Satalite S-video in on my new PVR card.

Thanks ???

I have two feature requests:

1) Have web admin display amount of free disk space.

2) Ability to automatically delete old episodes of a reoccuring recording. I have a reoccuring program set up to record every episode of a weekday program. I would like the ability to automatically delete episodes that are more than two days old, so that I always have the latest two episodes saved, and never more than two.

Is there a way to pass a username/password using the webcams plugin? I am using a D-Link DCS-900 webcam with built in server. To keep the whole world from seeing this camera, a username and password are defined. However when I enter the URL in the webcams.xml file, it comes up with "error reading camera".

I have tried the format "http://username:password@192.168.0.63/Image.jpg" but this doesn't work either. I know that IE gave up on passing usernames and passwords in URLs several versions ago. But I was hoping that the webcams plugin had no such constraint. Perhaps the problem is in the DCS-900 web server and it may not be able to accept username/password in this manner.

Any clues?

I really like this program from what I can see from screenshots and reading all about it. However, I can't use it. I have an ATI Wonder Pro but it is not supported. Any plans to support this card?

Thanks,
Stoss
