Here's my config:

AMD XP 2100+
WinXP Pro
GBPVR 0.90.10
PVR150MCE
Girder 3.3
Phillips MCE remote and receiver (with 1 IR blaster bud)

TV setup:
6 channels thru Antenna in my attic -> Antenna on PVR150
Dish Network Satellite reciever -> S-video IN on PVR150

Currently, I'm able to use GBPVR to change channels when I'm in the range that I've set for the Antenna, but I still have to use my Dish remote to change channels when I'm in the range of satellite channels. So my next step in the process is trying to get my computer to change the channels on my Dish Receiver.

I've learned that unless I use Windows MCE 2005, I can't use the IR blaster with my MCE remote/receiver. It looks like one of my options is to use the USB-UIRT. There are a few people in this forum that say they're changing channels on their Dish Network receiver, but don't mention how.

So my question is what all do I need to make this work with GBPVR? I have already bought Girder.

Thanks!

How do get the Videoarchiver to attach a genre to the various movies? I had it working in an older version of the plugin by making a txt file adding the .desc extension, but it won't work now. When I press the GetDVDinfo icon it starts up, but it gives up after the first movie. What am I doing wrong?

Is there a problem with my setup or is there a known issue when recording from the s-video input and RCA inputs on a 150MCE?

I just tried recording and the file size was larger than a gig within a minute or so. I then tried recording from TV and the difference is very large, the TV file was much much smaller for the same time period

Hi. I am fairly sure that this has worked in the past but does not not now. Does the volume control work on the PVR350? Am I supposed to loop it through the aux port on the sound card and then out to the speakers?

Hi. I am about to update my system with a PVR150. I allready have a PVR350 that I am using and it works great.
I just want to confirm a couple of things.

1) I need to connect both remote cables up right?
2) The PVR150 goes in first in say PCI slot 2 (install drivers reboot etc)
3) The PVR 350 next in say slot 4 (install drivers reboot etc)

I also have an Sigma Designs Xcard that I want to use in place of the PVR350 output becuase I want to play DVD's. Do I put that in say the last slot?

I suppose I then configure GB-PVR and make capture #1 the 150 and capture #2 the 350. Is this right?

I’m running v0.90.10 and Hauppauge PVR250. I am having a really hard time getting the tuning to work correctly. I have a cable input with 37 channels. I have the following Direct Recording Plugin selected for the Recording Source. It has the following settings:

Capture Card Type: Hauppauge PVR250
Country: USA
Board Number: Capture Device #1
Source: Internal Tuner, Tuning: Cable
Quality Profile Settings: Medium

When I use these settings, I hear the correct audio, but I only see static for the video. When I change the Tuning to Antenna, I see the video (and hear audio) just fine, but only up to channel 13. After 13, I get static.

Also, the Tuning Assistant finds all 37 channels without any problems.

Any ideas?

Thanks for any help!

My feed to the nova-T is not as good as it should be and I occasionally get audio (usually) and video (sometimes) drop outs.

playback is usually OK and usually re-synchronises on both the PC and MVP. However, all the editors I have used so far (cutterman, tmpgenc, virtualdub) all end up with audio sync problems (I'm fairly sure it is because of the errored data).

Does anyone know of, or can recommend, any software that has a fair stab at cleaning up such files so that they can be edited, demuxed etc with relative ease.

Thanks, Paul

If I am watching a previously recorded show that is say 2 hours long and I am 1/2 through it and then decide to go out and look at my guide and make some recording selections, how can I then resume playback where I left off or do I have to fast forward through the video to where I left off?

I am not certain how much of GB-PVR is open source (if any) however I would be more than happy to help work on this feature. I am a .NET developer and have been a C++ developer for over 15 years so I know I can contribute.

Anyway, I noticed that GB-PVR and Media Center have less than optimal conflict resolution. For example, if I have a 1 hour show scheduled to record on channel 2 and I then select a 2 hour show at the same time on channel 3 (in a 1 tuner system), I am told that they conflict and the only options I am given are to cancel show 1 or not record show 2 at all.

I should be able to specify which show to record the first hour and have the second hour of show 2 recorded. This can be useful, for example, when I am trying to record the last part of a sporting event. I don't care that I can't record all of it, but record all that is possible.

hi,

now there is only one parameter for the postprocessing.bat (filename with path of the finished recording).

more parameters will be nice ;-)

like

%1       filename (like now)
%2       programmtitle
%3       description
%4       starttime (real, inclusive pre-padding)
%5       endtime (real, inclusive post-padding)
%6       channelname
%7       recordtype (once, season, season timeslot)
%8       quality
and so one, more ist better ;-)

don´t know the max count of the possible parameters, but this will be nice :-))))))
