The mute key (45 button remote) does not work for the mvp when watching live tv or a recording.  However, the volume up and down keys do work.  I have tried the default mute setting in irremote.ini "MUTE=m" as well as trying "MUTE={app(0x80000)}".  Any ideas?  Thanks.

I can get a Shuttle IRDA remote control pretty cheap and it looks as if you can program GBPVR to work with (m)any? IR remotes. Is this true?

Also can I use the remote from my TV Walker Mini to control playback in GBPVR (I haven't taken it out of the box yet!!! and can I get any software to use this remote to control Windows Media Player?

Currently my PC is behind a wall thats behind my lounge, I have a usb Hub in the lounge so I can plug in a USB remote sensor here or even move my TV Walker out to the lounge if required (assuming it works on a usb powered hub) but I'm trying to work out if I'm best investing in a Stuttle remote (Under my wifes Capex approval Limit - try and push to let me buy a Firefly (or whatever the diamond multimedia Radio remote's called) or perhaps I can make do with the Walker one (I could program our universal remote to emulate it).

Any suggestions?

I have installed GBPVR and it works fine. I can see everything using my Hauppauge 350 TV out. The problem is that i want to use my computer monitor to view my recordings and so. I tried every software setting possible, still no result. I have a AMD XP 2400+ and a NVIDIA FX 5200 with 128 MB of RAM. Someone has an idea.

After doing some research I'm planning to get a Niveus remote ( http://store.niveusmedia.com/s.nl/sc.2/c....A/id.4/.f )which works with PC via RF and can work with regular components via IR. However I did not find any info on compatibility with GBPVR. Does anyone use it or tried it with GBPVR?

Hi


EDITED: (Please read later posts it seems to be a "webalias" problem!...)

I have two Netcards (The server is a bridge between my local net and the internet).

I know all about FW and NAT settings...

But no matter what it only works on the local IP adress 10.0.0.2 and not on the public IP....Is there a conf setting in GB-PVR that I can set?

Cheers

Hello all,

The videoArchiver Plugin Feb-06-05VAPlugIn.zip version indicated that you need to install CommonGBPVRUtilities.dll in gbpvr directory. However, I could not find this CommonGBPVRUtilities.dll anywhere. Could someone please point me to the link where I can download a copy of this dll?

Thanks

Hi,

i don´t know if this already possible by any means and only didn´t figure it out:
I would love to have the functionality of the actual MyVideos (thanks again reven! plugin that allows you to dowload movie poster and info from IMDB for ready recorded (and archived) movies in the TVGuide. So before recording something you could download this information. As far as I understand the MyVideos plugin uses titel information stored in mydatabase.xml to retrieve IMDB data. As the TVGuide information is also stored in an xml it should somehow be possible, to do the same here?

Probably something for jrocks Guide2J...

Possible?

Question for you guys:

First, here are the specs of my setup:
P4 2.8 GHz
512 RAM
Hauppauge PVR-150 Capture Card
Radeon X300 128MB Video Card
Standard Defintion Sony WEGA 32" TV
DirecTV standard def. set top box
IR blaster
All S-Video connections

When I first got my system up and running, I noticed that while running GB-PVR, the resulting picture on my TV screen was a bit washed out and slightly fuzzy compared to the picture I get with the DirecTV box hooked straight up to the TV.

Then I read something about DScaler.  I installed DScaler, played around with some of the brightness/contrast/etc. settings, and viewed the resulting picture on my TV (just a direct feed from the DirecTV box, through the computer, and to the TV -- without GB-PVR running.)  The picture looked great.

I was hoping that once I installed DScaler, I would then see picture improvements while watching TV through GB-PVR.  (Did it install codecs?)  Unfortunately, even after installing DScaler, I still see the same fuzzy, washed-out picture through GB-PVR.

My question is: Is there a way to implement my DScaler settings so that GB-PVR can take advantage of them?  I read something about a "DScaler overlay," but I'm not sure if I'm on the right track.

Sorry if this seems like a dumb question, but I've poked around in the config settings and in the forums for more information, but I can't seem to figure out whether or not this is possible.

Alternatively (if DScaler won't work), are there other apps/codecs I can install to tweak my display?  For example, I also read something about ffdshow (and I see this option in the GB-PVR config settings), but I'm not sure how to go about implementing this.

Thanks in advance for any info you can provide.

I recently started developing a skin and have found GB-PVR more versatile than I initally thought, but there are some issues I'd very much love to see corrected.
1) I've tried to add either the CurrentTime object or the Clock panel to all pages but I seems they only display on their respective pages (CurrentTime on Guide and Clock on main menu). Am I doing something wrong or is it by design? Silly if it's the latter...

2) The Search Recordings page can't really be skinned at all, I'd like to atleast resize/move the different boxes and alter their appearance (change border width/color and corner radius ie, DrawRoundedRect).

3) Skinning of the Record-screen.
The Record and Cancel -buttons take their skinning info from the same place as the buttons on the side of the Program popup in the TV Guide. Creates all sorts of problems when using asymmetrical buttons, see the Street skin for an example. Wouldn't mind if the border which marks the active selection could be modified too.

4) Also would be nice if the screen that pops up when trying to play a DVD without a disc in the drive would be skinnable (and it also appears to be pop up under the "now recording" panel. Imho it should look more like the recording popup, ie solid background.

5) The spacings seem to be defined very differently in the different button elements...
Main Menu: spacing 4
TV Guide ProgrammePopupButtons: spacing -10
and I though there was a third as well, but I can't seem to find it. Anyways, the two above create the exact same effect, so it seems a little strange to use different spacings to actually create the same space...

6) Ability to skin the Net Radio buttons just like the Recordings buttons with SelectedItemBackground and ItemBackground.

Just my 2 (or 6) cents to make a great program even greater!

Edit: even more (6)

I'm a new user of this SW and I have some questions that I hope someone can answer!?
I have 2 cards installed on my HTPC (Hauppauge 350 and Technisat Airstar DVB-T card). Is there only support for the cards in the drop menu in the config (Capture Source)? Or is it possible to add another card like Technisat?
Just now I'm using Mythtv (linux) but I want to swap to a SW running under windows instead because I'm not a Linux specialist :).
Just now I share my channels with 2 other guys (cardsharing). Is there any support for cardsharing in GBPVR?

Thanks
