LiveTV works fine.

There are recordings in the TV buffer and all is well.

However, I let the LiveTV run by itself, say overnight, strange things happen.

I woke up and find that the screen is paused and they are many chunks of recordings. But the LiveTV is still recording.

Then I move my mouse over the GBPVR window, the LiveTV will run again, but at fast forward speed. Then i press ctrl-o, it will play the latest LiveTV show normally.

Why is this happening? How can i solve this prob?

Help please.. thanks in advance

First of all great software. Thanks.

I have although one frustrating error. When I playback one of my previous recordings while I'm recording a new one the sound "crackles" and becomes very bad after 5-10 minuttes. Any idea?

I'm using Hauppauge PVR 250 for recording and an Audigy Prodigy 192 soundcard.

Regards

The title pretty much says it all.

I have a Hauppauge PVR-150 with the silver remote and IR Blaster. I have been using the remote with GB-PVR for about two weeks recording over-the-air broadcast programs. I now have DirecTV hooked up to the pvr-150, and I am trying to get it to be controlled by the IR Blaster program. The brand and model is RCA D10(you should be able to find it at any BestBuy or Circuit City). I have gone through all of the set codes to no avail. I even tried the most up to date program version with no success.

Has anyone been able to get the particular model to work with IR Blaster?? Also, I have tried moving the IR transmitter around over the set top box IR receiver spot with no success too. It's really bugging me that I can't get it to work.


Any help will be appreciated.

EDIT: The newer version of Ir Blaster Config can be downloaded HERE. It is apparently not up on their website yet. BTW it doesn't work any different for me than the other version...no go...

Hi,

For Some radio stations I have a jerky sound, sound no good at all.
I guess stream is MP3 Pro so I maybe need a decoder.
Where can I download a free one

thx

I've got 0.90.10 and it works fine. I can view previously-recorded stuff, live TV is very snappy, timeshift mode is great.

I've got one little problem and I don't know how to attack it.

TBS (my channel 23) has no sound. It works the same way in live TV, timeshift mode, record/playback. I can play the recorded MPEG file back in WMP and it still has no sound.

It seems like the tuner isn't getting sound, but only for one channel. How can I troubleshoot/fix this problem?

Hey there,

on my Hauppauge PVR-500 MCE I have LiveTV working, but recording doesn't seem possible. It says it's recording, which also repeats every 500s in the logs, but there's no file. Even though it claims to record to one. Not even an empty one...

Anyone got any ideas?

TIA

I've been updating my version of GBPVR each time an updated version is release, but I'm kinda confused, and can't seem to find an answer in the forums anywhere. I see a new release of version 0.13 is out, as is version 0.90.10. I don't understand the version numbering scheme with GBPVR, and if I should just download and update the newest versions by date, or if 0.13 is some sort of test software, or what. Any help clearing this up would be most appreciated.

By the way, I enjoy the software very much, use it every day, and recommend it to other techies that I know. Thanks for a great solution to many problems.

Since going to the Nvidia DVD decoder (at least, that's when it seemed to start happening), I get this every minute now:

2/24/2005 9:45:00 AM.984 VERBOSE [2] Rendering MenuMenuTask
2/24/2005 9:46:00 AM.984 VERBOSE [2] Rendering MenuMenuTask
2/24/2005 9:47:00 AM.984 VERBOSE [2] Rendering MenuMenuTask
2/24/2005 9:48:00 AM.984 VERBOSE [2] Rendering MenuMenuTask

GBPVR is just on the menu screen, so I'm assuming this is the clock.

Why would it start logging, or having to render, where Invetervideo did not?

I finally got around to slapping a DVD into the HTPC and am having some majorly annoying issues playing them back.  The drive apparently came with Cyberlink's PowerDVD.  I say "apparently" because I just found the disk and have no other idea where else it would have come from.  So, I installed it, configured GBPVR, and set off.  

Unfortunately, I'm getting some major stutter when I play a DVD in full screen mode.  And the dialog is a bit off from the video as it looks like a poorly dubbed Kung Fu flick.  In windowed mode (regardless of the window's size) it's fine.  Any other video file I play in fullscreen mode works fine.  It only appears to be when I play from the DVD drive (next idea is to rip it as an ISO and try it that way).

It happens in both GBPVR and PowerDVD, so I'm sure it's something funky on my end, but I don't know what.  My first thought was to look for a better DVD decoder, but I'm open to ideas if anyone has any.

Here are the system specs if it helps.  It's based on an old Dell Dimension 8100.  P3 1.0 GHz, stock mobo, 640MB RDRAM.  Lite-On 48/24/48/16 CDRW/DVDROM combo drive.  GeForce MX4000 video.  Hauppauge PVR250 capture/tuner.  TB Santa Cruz sound.  Some off-brand wireless NIC that really needs replacing.  20GB EIDE drive (OS and apps), 120GB SATA drive (media files).  Running Windows 2000.

Trying to get to the bottom of a glitch where audio doesn't always kick in on tv viewing/recording. Seeing if it's just the codecs/decoders.

1) Does any know how to get to the Nvidia DVD decoder control panel? I foudn this once down in the tray, and it had settings for the overlay and other things...haven't seen it since.

2) What codecs are used to play live TV? I'm trying to figure out which ones they are in the codecs properties list so maybe I can set their priority higher and see if that helps.
