I just installed gbpvr a few weeks ago and I'm loving it. The one problem I'm having right now is when I'm in time shift mode and I try to rewind it or fast forward after a pause, I lose all audio. I have to hit stop and go to live tv again to regain sound. I can pause/un-pause as much as I want to with no problem.
My setup is not state of the art: I'm running an Athlon 2400+, 512, 80/20gb hds, with a 150MCE. I am still using the motherboard sound, so I suspect that might be part of the problem. Any other obvious things I'm missing?
Thanks
Hi everybody. My question is: Is there any way of shedule recordings with less than 10 minutes precision?
I mean, to start a time at 10:54, for example, and stop it at 11:12. I'm doing a lot of probing with postprocessing and transcoding and it's a bit slow to schedule recordings from 10 minutes.
better dvd support similar to a standalone dvd would be nice
features like
- jump to title
- jump to chapter
- onscreen display of time (total time, total time remaining, chapter time, chapter time remaining).
- slow
- subtitle on/off (not sure if this is already available)
- shuffle
- repeat
- angle
- audio (not sure if this is also already available)
I figured after fighting with it for the past few weeks I should maybe "ask for directions" :-)
1. CDK Scheduler (PriorityRecording) schedules and records duplicate shows. Here is an excerpt from my PriorityRecordings.xml file:
---
<Configuration>
<MissingRecordingPriority>0</MissingRecordingPriority>
<Conflicts>Delete</Conflicts>
<DuplicatesAllowed>No</DuplicatesAllowed>
</Configuration>
<Recording type="All" priority="1">
<Search>
<Title>
<TextSearch>Futurama</TextSearch>
</Title>
</Search>
<RecordingType>Daily</RecordingType>
<Quality>Custom1</Quality>
<CaptureSource>2</CaptureSource>
<Duplicates>
<Recorded>No</Recorded>
<Scheduled>No</Scheduled>
</Duplicates>
<Padding>
<PrePadding>1</PrePadding>
<PostPadding>1</PostPadding>
</Padding>
</Recording>

I have played with it over and over and I cannot get it to ignore previously recorded/scheduled shows.
2. It appears to be case sensitive in its search.
3. the Xrecord keeps writing a file with "paddding" in it (note 3 d's instead of 2 d's )
4. Xrecord also writes some 3 gobbledegook characters at the beginning of the xml file - but this doesn't appear to break the PriorityRecording or itself.
5. Sometime ago I had to remove my "capture source" and add a new one. Well that is now listed as source 2. I notice that the Xrecord interface defaults to 1 even though I only have capture source 2.
The interface looks fantastic, and the xml file recording capabilities look absolutely awesome. I do have the latest copy of the software (as of yesterday's download) and still something is glitchy in my setup.
ok in the new my videos (if you havent been paying attention) ive added "Actors" to it, which lists all the actors you have a movie/tv show/whatever for. this info is grabbed form imdb.com, which also provides a photo gallery for most actors, now i can make my videos download this aswell when it downloads the rest of the actor info, but the lookups are taking a while now, and this will make them take even longer.
I'm planning on using PostProcessing.bat to call a command line PHP script in order to transcode certain shows for use on my smartphone (see this thread for background - http://tinyurl.com/3zz4w ). I've got a couple of questions relating to this:
1) I don't seem to have a file called postprocessing.bat on my machine. Presumably I can just create my own in the gbpvr directory?
2) Does the %1 variable in PostProcessing.bat contain the full path to the file or just the filename?
Since updating to latest and greatest Xrecord, I can't seem to find my videos anymore. I use the "XVideoPath" variable in the skin but nothing shows.
When selecting archive, it shows an empty spot where the path used to be...
I have just hooked up my MVP to a widescreen TV for the first time and i can't get GBPVR to show a full widescreen picture. It insists on cropping (centrecutting) the picture. Several times I have gone back to the original hauppauge software and set the aspect ratio (16X9). The Hauppauge software displays it correctly but when i go back to GBPVR it keeps centrecutting it (what the hauppauge software does when set to 4X3).
