However, one issue: When the computer is waken from standby by recording services the screen remains black. I find it rather annoying to have to wait until recording is stopped before being able to watch anything...
Im using a PVR 250 and Nvidia Mx 440 graphics card. Normally the graphics card is only connected to my TV, but i have tried with a monitor as well. I can see the M/B post messages when recording is starting, then nothing.
I'm new to GB-PVR. I have a 150mce installed. I can get the channels tunned with the tunning assistant and I can get the guide. When I try to use the mvp I get an error that the target machine actively refused it. What could I be doing wrong?
we need a gbpvr news feed, so updates etc can be displayed to most users on the main menu. there needs to be an easy way for this information to be updated and for old information to be removed.
requirements
- a form to easily enter the update info eg "My Videos: Major update, lots of bug fixes." (one line of info since its for a ticker).
- a expiry date for info (eg plugins updates expire after 3 days, gbpvr expires after a week).
- only registered users can update this xml file.
- someone needs to maintain this, not just gbpvr, but htpc news in general (it would get dull if it just keeps saying "my videos updated! again!".
- we need someone to host it, im not sure if this will work on the wiki, although it would be better so you dont need to register a new user again.
so anyone know how to do this, all via webforms? can anyone host this? anyone want to maintain this?
i found this over at htpcnews.com (well it was on their front page, so i didnt have to do much to find it ). ok for those who want to tweak 150/250/350/500 check this out http://www.cask-of-amontillado.com/pvr_tweak.html
I've noticed a small border around my capture area when not in window mode. Is that normal? I think it is only top and right, not home to check, and it is a thin white line.
Also
How do I solve this? I have a wide screen. If I set my resolution up to fill it so that I can watch wide screen dvd, then it stretches my non widescreen tv. If I set my res so that it is like a normal tv, then my dvd is not full screen.
I know this gets asked a lot but I have a pvr 250 and would like to add a second tuner... the 250 is for recodring off sky and the second card would be for recording off atennna. Is there a difference between the mce versions and normal as in the documentation is says the 500 is not totally supported... does the 150 come with an ir blaster if it did then I would have to use the 150 for sky and the 250 for antenna and forgo the extra tunner...
Are all these cards compatabile with each other
Any Advice Please .....
During the initial screen (Scanning Servers), my D1 MVP will turn itself off after a few seconds. It usually takes 4 or 5 tries for it to get going. After that, it stays on.
Any ideas?

MVP sw v. 2.4 release 23038
OK so my last post on this subject got a small response. Trying again.
I have a totaly new db by way of a new install. I set up the EPG as I have before and when I do up arrow I get "object reference not set to an instance of an object ". At this point gb-pvr crashes and I have to kill it with taskmgr. I find that if I remove the extra channels (BBC3, and 4 and ITV3 and 4) It works fine and the guide wraps around like it should.
Just a quick question - I have a Media MVP but I see people talking about the 'Media MVP 1000'. Are there two different devices or is this just a naming convention, i.e., products are sometimes marketed with different names in different countries.
