Should there be any problems with running my PVR350 at the same time as the WInTV PVR USB2? I'm thinking on getting the PVR USB so I can record 2 shows at the same time and don't have enough slots. It's also cheaper than the new 500.

I currently have two capture sources - top down on the Capture Source page, PVR350 (#2) and Nova-t (#1).

I now want to put my PVR500 in but want the tuners to be capture sources #4 and #3 with the PVR 350 still as #2 and Nova-t as #1.

The only way I can see of doing this is to delete the existing setup then add the 500, 350 and Nova-t in that order. If I do that, however, I'll loose my Ready recordings.

Any way around this? (A hack of the GBPVR.MDB for instance?).

Plain enough, how does this work?

There are a few of us that have an issue where the nforce hardware and/or drivers kick off the irremote app, leaving it unable to restart.

My impression was the the direct access would not require the irremote program? Is this true, or am I misundertstanding altogether?

If that's the not the case, I may try a SB USB sound device (the hookup to the sony receiver will be nice) and disable the nvidia MB hardware altogether.

After upgrading to .90, I still have a directory full of folder-grouped recordings, but the list is blank when I choose the Recordings menu. Is there any way for me to tell gbpvr to discover them and populate the list?
thanks!

yeah my title is bad. anyway sub can you make it so if you press up on the first tv channel in the tv guide (live guide too, but i assume this is the same code, so this will effect that anyway) it takes you to the last channel, and down on last takes you to the first channel.

also the page down in the guide needs a little bit of fixing, if you keep pressing page down takes you to that last channel, but only that channel is visible, it should be changed so that the last channel is selected, but the firstchannelstoshowindex should remain the same (yeah im not explaining this very well). i asked you ages ago about this, i hope you remember that explaination. try page down in "my videos" that will show you what i mean.

Hey,

I have re-installed everything several times, but always get this Error after changing config, or trying to view live TV "Cannot start service GB-PVR Recording Service on computer". I have a Hauppauge PVR-150. GB-PVR looks great, so hopefully, I am just being dumb, would like to get this working.

Thanks.

(I posted this in part of another thread, but realized it probably belongs in its own thread)

I am trying to convert DivX AVIs into MPEG so I can stream the video through my mediamvp without using up processor cycles on my computer used in the DivX decoding. I tried using ffmpeg to do this but I end up with a slightly stretched image that only occupies the top half of my TV screen when played through GBPVR or the normal mediamvp interface. The bottom half of the screen is completely black as well as the sides (this is a 16:9 TV). Can anyone make some suggestions as to what I am doing wrong? Here is the command I am using:

ffmpeg -i show.avi -b 2000 -vcodec mpeg2 show.mpg

I've tried using both 4:3 and 16:9 for the "aspect" setting, and this does not solve the problem. I would appreciate any help...

Just curious as to what most of you do when you have an avi file to play. Is there a way to switch back and forth between the GB service and Hauppauge service since the MVP off the shelf plays divx and avi's?
Thanks

Love the My Videos plugin, except for one thing, the IMDB lookups. If you search IMDB, either by Ctrl-O or red button on remote, it searches and grabs the IMDB info, whether it's correct or not. For example, searching for Lion King II, the IMDB info retrieved was for Lion King 1 1/2. There was no choice as to if it was correct to save this info or not.

Possibility this plugin can be enhanced that when there are multiple listings, it will present a choice as to which one you want associated with the video??

i was wondering if it'd be possible to edit the pre/post padding settings from the web admin.

for the most part, the thing works great, and most shows stay within their alotted time. on the other hand, sports events often have delayed starts (b/c of previous games) or they last longer (OT) than scheduled. for these types of shows, it'd be nice to have some way of changing the pre/post padding so you can add 30 mins to the end, for example.

as far as UI implementation, i wouldn't particularly care how it's done. it could be an option when choosing to record the program (having selected it from the tv guide), or it could be edited in the Manage Recordings tab -- maybe have an "Edit" or "Update" button in addition to "Cancel" for all pending recordings.

curious as to how difficult this would be to do...and if anybody else wants this feature.
