I'm not sure if this is a bug or just my system, but when playing back a recording, if I hit the Rewind/Reverse button, the display freezes and I need to CTRL-ALT-DEL, Windows Task Manager, End Program to get back to Windows.
I had the Use Short Skip instead of FF/RW - unchecked.
When Short Skip instead of FF/RW is checked, it works fine.
I found this site TVxb site they say that they have been working with gb-pvr. Anybody using this? Although XMLTV Radio Times is OK I am getting a lot of TBA's and some strange listings on the channels BBC3 and 4 etc. Does anybody here use this service? Is it any good?
If Im recording a show and I go to recordings and choose to play it while its still recording, it plays the file just fine, BUT when I try to go back to the menu with "back" or "menu" GBPVR freezes, and I need to "End program" in task manager.
Selecting "Live TV" gives you an error "No capture-source was available to enable you to watch the requested channel".
To watch what is currently being recorded requires - recordings -> pending -> select recording show -> play
Suggestion:-
Wouldn't it be much better under a 1 tuner card setup if Live TV showed you what is currently being recorded rather than gaving a non-too wife friendly error message?
I have a Tivo (hopefully to be replaced with gb-pvr) which is high on WAF and it behaves in this way and seems very logical and easy to use.
Having to explain that you need to navigate as above to watch what its currently recording is not easy
After recording a movie that I would like to keep I would prefer to have it only shown in MyVideos (with all the poster and desciption info) and not in xRecord any more. The Archive-function will move the video to my video root directory so it wont be seen by MyVideos. The Export function does not really do anything for me (don´t what it is supposed to do).
At the moment my workaround is archive it from xRecord and manually re-create the folder and move the mpeg to the folder (not really handy).
Am I only doing something wrong or does nobody else need this function?
I prefer not to have the shows/movies I want to keep shown in xRecord so it is easier to separate from the stuff I just watch once and delete.
Hey, i just recently purchased a sabrent tv card from newegg.com. The directions for installing the software tell me its a "Philips SAA713x TV Card" i was wondering if your software supported these cards, or if there are plans to..
I'd like to have the ability to setup a video playlist. Since I record numerous sitcoms, it'd be nice to be able to watch them consecutively without user interaction between each.
Also I use GBPVR as a standalone, and it'd be nice to know how much HD free in one of the menus (not X-record's) but let's say anytime I'm setting up a show to record.
