If you have the WinTV 45 button remote and a remote made by Philips, it's likely you have conflicts. Â For instace, Mute on the TV remote is actually the system mute, and pressing either mute again does not turn it off (meaning you need to do manually on system).
Solution: Put a ";" in front of any buttons in the "old" remote maps (first set near top) in irremote.ini. Â It's the old remote maps that also read the Philips signals. Â Keep any you can be clever with or find a dual use for.
Example: The power button the Philips remote also is the Radio button on WinTV. Â By mapping the radio button to esc-home, you can leave live tv to the menu by turning the TV off.
How about a screen displaying the local weather for the area. I have seen on other PVR's that this can be done. It would keep me from turning on the Weather Channel and waiting 10 minutes till they say the local weather.
Hey guys, so here's the score.. I just got digital cable and I got all of the channels going into the EPG but when I call them up on GBPVR, no worky.. Any ideas what the problem might be. Is it that the PVR250 won't do channels higher than 100 or something like that?
Comment Period: At least one week, maybe more depending on participation.
Okay. I've looked over the requirements that everybody have suggested, and tried to combine these into an XML file, that can be extended as we need it.
1. PluginDetail.xsd - Schema describing the PluginXML File.
2. PluginDetailSample2.xml - An XML File that validates against the schema.
3. PluginDetailSchema Doc. - This is the Documentation describing the Schema. It is in HTML and should give an idea of what each of the Elements.
The GBPVR element is the Root element.
Most of the elements are Optional because they may not apply. There are two areas that this Schema covers. Skins and Plugins. Each group is optional. Whatever program reads this information in will have to require one of these elements.
Items that need to be decided:
1. The Plugin Categories need to be decided. Right now I'm suggesting the following: Utility, Video, Music, System Info, TV, Other
2. The schema is designed on purpose not to have very many attributes. Yes there are lots of Elements, and yes they are pretty long, but Readability and expandibilty are easier to do this way, then to tie everything to attributes. The only times attributes are used are to indicate types or versions.
3. Additional Information needs to be defined for Plugin Installation and Skin Installation.
4. Additonal GBPVR System requirements probably need to be defined.
Anyway, this is a working draft, and ready for the group to review and make comments.
After we get this part done, and defined, I'll look over the schema required for retrieving the available plugins.
First i have setup GBPVR with one tunercard PVR350 it works, after serveral tries!
Then i try to setup a second device the PVR USB2 both Hauppauge.
First device #1 and second device #2,with wintv2000 both works well, but only one at the time of course.
Finally i set up everything in Congig.exe in GBPVR and only one device is operating at the time.
If i unplug the PVR USB2.0 device then i can acces the PVR350 for recording or preview the show.
If i plugin the PVR USB2.0 then this device is only operating,and the PVR350 is sleeping all the time.
Other sequenses such as booting with PVR USB2.0 or not, can also generate a failure such as:
Error:Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
This has to be a fault in the IR remote driver settings, or something like that!
If GBPVR works with two devices why (in this case) can i only acces one device,
the PVR350 or the USB2.0,but not both.
When you ignore the assertion you get a GBPVR error box:
'Error:Object reference not set to an instance of an object'
GBPVR.EXE.log contains :
<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">

Hi,
After help from sub and a bit of fiddling of my own I have GBPVR working nicely on the MediaCenter 300i. The final hurdle was that the recording service would 'at random' crash, usually during a recording. What seems to have fixed it is turning off the realtime virus checking component of my Virus Checker (F-Prot).
Is the need to turn off virus checking common with GBPVR users? With F-Prot you can't turn off scanning for just particular directories - its all or nothing.
Hi I am running Xrecord version 17 and from time to time I get a error message - I have enclosed the error message which is in Swedish and I try to translate here:
The program has generated an exception that could not be handled
then ok to abort the program
and Avbryt to debug the program (her you need a JIT-program which I do not have)
Any idea what is wrong?
By the way I have started to only use Xrecord and it is very good for the children who can navigate by pictures - and the wife is also getting closer to acceptance!
You can now setup guides through the settings in the config app. If you have already created guides I only made one setting change: the Default attribute values were (0 or -1) now they are (Flase or True).
Remember you need FastFind and CDKScheduler in the GBPVR root directory.
There is a problem with creating the scheduler priority file right now. It is in FastFind. When that get's fixed the Guide will be able to create CDK scheduler priority files.
I forgot to tell Jorm about the change I made. Sorry.
FYI: I'm working on a verical timeline guide that will be a part of Guide2J
Note: This is a new plugin so there could be bugs. I know of none. Any reported issues was always resolved by having the latest FastFind and CDKscheduler in the GBPVR directory
