I have to 150's in my machine. I have scheduled back to back recordings. I have set the first recording to record 2 additional minutes. The second recording I have scheduled to start 5 minutes before the 1st ends. Why does the 2nd not record on the 2nd card but wait for the first card to finish before it records?

download: My Videos 2.1.10.0
download: MyDatabase.zip

v2.1.10.0
added
- can now configure which buttons to show on the menu and where they appear

fixed
- it will check to see if a disc exists in the dvd drive before trying to lookup info for it now
- the skin.xml file no longer has to specify a maximum description length.
- err probably fixed a few more things.

----------------------------------------------------------------

v2.1.8.0 (2-03-2005)
added
- PINs are now stored in "PinNumbers" table in database (this table will be created for you the first time you run it, so no need to replace the database).
- Edit Title - added to edit menu, allows you to edit the title for the selected video (via onscreen keyboard)
- Edit SubTitle - added to edit menu, allows you to edit the subtitle for the selected video (via onscreen keyboard); this is the name that is displayed.
- I moved "MaxDescLength" to the skin.xml file, since its more of a skinning issue than config issue, since different skins will need this to be different values.

Fixed
- Fixed a bug with the popup menu where pushing "back" sometimes made crazy jumps to over parts of the menu.
- InfoScreen pushing left/right or Blue/Yellow now keeps focus on the selected button.
- The "Lock" graphic no longer appears on a "Parent" directory item.

----------------------------------------------------------------

v2.1.6.4 (26-02-2005)
- added "OFDB.de" as a lookup source, also available in "Scan"
- translate "Votes Cast" and "out of 10" in the language.xml file.

----------------------------------------------------------------

v2.1.3.0 (24-02-2005)
- added "Mark as Seen", appears in scan and normal popup menu, so you can mark one or all videos as seen.
- added "Remove from DB" to scan menu, so can remove every item in the current directory from the database.
- fixed a few bugs.
- database can now have null values so you can manually edit it without problems.
- popup menu can now define how many items are shown, if there are more items than specified the menu wraps.

----------------------------------------------------------------

v2.1.2.8 (23-02-2005)
- improved episode lookup to work with episode season and number. works with s03e02, s3e02, 302, 3-02, 3x02.

----------------------------------------------------------------

v2.1.2.2 (23-02-2005)
- fixed one bug, if you have v2.1.2.0 dont bother upgrading chances are this bug doesnt effect you.

----------------------------------------------------------------

v2.1.2.0 (23-02-2005)
- "Show Info On OK" - if this is checked in config when you press enter/ok on a file/iso/dvd(if listed in virtual root) it will show the info screen, and if no info is found it will use "best effort" (or if in a tv folder "episode lookup&quot to find the information. if this is enabled you can play a video/iso/dvd via the play button, if its not enable, the play button wont do anything, so if you want to keep it just for music playback this wont interrupt it.
- Max Description Length - you can now define the maximum number of characters to be displayed for the description (only displayed the full description is stored, so you can change this, useful for very long descriptions).
- Locked Image - now displays a "lock" image on files/folders that require a pin to be opened.
- can now get info for dvds
- tv tome lookup now returns "director" "writer" "votes cast" "rating"(not certification) "air date" (as "year&quot
- improved imdb lookup.
- fixed "info view" poster image aspect (it was being stretch to fill the space, now it keeps the same aspect ratio).

note: there is a checkbox in the config called "auto play dvds" this isnt enable (ie you cant check it), ive been playing around with this for a few days, havent gotten it to work and didnt want to remove from the config, so i just disabled it.

----------------------------------------------------------------

v2.1.0.7
I added a "Info" screen, you can access this by pressing the red button (ctrl-r).  this is extremely skinnable (anyone skinners need help just ask), it can display actors, director,writer, tagline, description, rating, certification, runtime, year of release, and genres.

the database need to be majorly altered to add all this information, so you will need to delete the old videos.mbd database, and download the seperate database (its no longer packaged in the "myvideos.zip" since now one database can be used for all 3 plugins).  when you download and install the "mydatabase.mdb" file and my videos 2.1.x, you'll need to configure it and alter the "Connection String" (YOU MUST DO THIS! and change it from "videos.mdb" to "mydatabase.mbd" (assuming you place the database in the same location, ie C:\program files\devnz\gbpvr\mydatabase.mbd).  you can also edit the "my music" and "my pictures" database connection strings and point them to this database (you might want to wait for a couple more releases thou, you may have to delete it).

ps GBPVR Media Experience has been updated to work with myvideos v2.1.0.0 (download)

Is it possible to get the recordings in chunks? It's rather unpractical for me to deal with 6Gb files. I rather have 6 1Gb.

Is this configurable?

Yes, I know I can do it post. But if it's implemented allready, why do everything the hard way? :-)

If it's not implemented, can you consdier implement it?

Hi,

I have a Leadtek Winfast PVR2000 tuner and I have trouble getting sound on some TV channels...

With TuningAssistant I have obtained and updated the source channel for each channel, the behavior is that some channels got sound some not, and in some cases after switching some programs I have no sound for all channels...

Some more details:
I live in Romania a country that is not listed in Direct Recording Configuration dialog, so I have choose Italy that appears to have somewhat similar channels, I think that this may be the problem for sound issue, is there a way to setup for Romania ?

also my channels switch slow, about 1-2 seconds, and sometimes the image is moving slowly for about 5 seconds, similar when the computer struggle to play a movie, but I think that this is not the case, I have check the task manager and the cpu load is below 70-80%, is this normal ? i mean the slowly channel change

My pc setup:
athlon xp 2800+
nforce 2, 512mb, ati radeon 9800 pro, audigy2 zs
Leadtek Winfast PVR2000
winxp+sp2
latest drivers for mb/vid/sound/tvtuner
GB-PVR v0.90.10

With native Winfast PVR application my tuner work flawlessly I have no issue with that, and is very fast in switching channels and the cpu load is 10-20% in timeshift mode...

Please help, I am trying this for about a week and I have no ideas left

I know that Hauppauge sells the new remote for $15, but I would need an IR receiver to use it on my PC. Does anyone know where to get an IR receiver that works with GBPVR? I have a PVR250 card so I can get use one that plugs into that card, or a USB one if that would work. (The first owner of the card threw away the remote and receiver!    )

As I have seen with others, the MVP GB-PVR combo is the first real oppurtunity to start a PVR that I am willing to deal with. I always thought it excessive to buy a 2nd PC (maybe a mac mini...).

Anyway, has anyone had experience with the wireless video/stereo senders? I want to explore this as an alternative to buying a MVP. Mostly these hook up to VGA, sound, or video output and transmit to a reciever/breakout box at the TV. I have only seen composite, no s-vid. Keep in mind I am watching tv on a not-too-fancy SDTV.

I have a 2nd story loft very near the TV, with a half wall. I do not expect range or obstruction to be a signifigant issue. I also am only willing to consider the MVP as a wireless (802.11g) solution - (I'd stop and buy an MVP if it had g built in). Of course the sender is cheaper, but is it an unwise direction? The positive is that I am not limited by formats that MVP supprots, as it's the PC being accessed. I also have an x10 rf remote that works fine from that distance to control the box.

To clarify, wires from the PC upstairs in the loft to the TV downstairs aren't acceptable options.

Hey guys.  I just loaded the .90.1 release, and while playing around, I thought the channel-change bug was gone in LiveTV. I changed channels several times using both miniguides (green button and go button on old remote). Then all of a sudden it starts resetting every couple of minutes again, and my folder is full of 20MB files. I can't be sure, but I think it started after I changed channels by keying in the channel number and hitting OK, to go directly to it. Selecting from the miniguides seemed OK, and just scanning up or down seemed to play for quite a while. Now those don't even work any more, cannot change channels in LiveTV without the stop-stop restart trick.

Sub,
I installed ver 09010 yesterday. I ended up with two instances of GBPVRTray.exe running on my system.

After a little digging, I found that the registry entry for (WinXP):
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\User Shell Folders\Startup
was set to:
%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Start Menu\Programs\Startup

It should have been:
%USERPROFILE%\Start Menu\Programs\Startup

This may have nothing to do with GBPVR. Since the other program in the "All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Startup" folder wouldn't open multiple instances, I have no way of knowing when this change happened. I just thought you may want to check if your installation makes this change.

This is an idea I've had spinning in my mind for a while now and I really think there's a demand for this..
I have my HTPC set for a very short standby delay (2 minutes) and I like it like that way, keeps the machine from being on unnecessarily. However it also poses a slight problem... I sometimes get "stupid" standbys, like just 15 minutes ago; one program finishes recording and comskip does its job, two minutes pass and the machine enters power saving mode. 15-20 seconds later it wakes up and starts recording another show! Now that's not smart and it's not good for the hardware.

Therefore I'd like to propose that a plugin would be written (I'd try it myself but my programming skills are totally nonexistent) to check what the 'puter it up to in the near future and is there's going to be activity in say the next 10 minutes (configurable naturally) then prevent the computer from entering standby. Preferably it would check the scheduled tasks (I've got xmltv and virus scan there, everyone probably has something..) and GB-PVRs internal scheduling, i.e. recordings. It might also be useful it it were configurable that at night time the standby dealy would be shorter (turn of immediately if there's no activity in xx minutes) and longer at daytime.

I hope I'm making some sence and mostly I hope someone else would find this usefull too. Oh BTW, thanks for an awesome program, 0.90.10 is very near perfection, and thanks to all plugin developes for a heap of most excellent plugins!

I've gotten a PriorityRecording.exe-Common Language Runtime Debugging Services error twice in the last week but my system is still working normal (it seems anyway).Besides the enclosed error message, I have a command box that is opened behind it that shows:
D:\Program Files\devnz\gbpvr>cd c:\program files\devnz\gbpvr
The system cannot find the path specified.
D:\Program Files\devnz\gbpvr>PriorityRecording.exe 1>recording.log.

I have a partitioned disc and GBPVR is on D. It appears that something is not where it belongs but I'm not sure what it is and don't want to try myself and mess up something that's working now. I'd appreciate some direction on how to make changes.
Thanks
