I am using variable 4400 to 8000. I changed medium quality to this so that it's what I record at and I changed live tv as well.

Hi all. I just installed a brand new PVR-150. I installed all of the software that wa son the Hauppauge disk. I then installed GB-PRV. I was configuring it, but I am having a problem. Under the Capture Sources tab, I cannot get an EPG configured. I don't know what is wrong. I followed the Setup in the Quick Start sec. on the GB-GVR page, but it is not working for me? Am I doing something wrong? Thanks for any help.

Any plans to hook up with TelCanto.  Slimserver can be controlled via a WiFi enabled PDA.  I have two MVP's and would welcome this way of controlling GB-PVR. I understand that TelCanto will be implementing support for UPnP.  I'm not very techie so could this be made to work?

Hi,

I running the 2313 build of gbpvr and I am curious if anyone has any luck with writing to network shares? Specificaly SAMBA share on a Linux box.

gbpvr is run on:

Athlon 64 3000+
2GB RAM
Windows XP SP1
120GB Boot disk
80GB Extra disk
Hauppauge PVR-150

The linux system is:
SuSE 9.2
Athlon 64 1Ghz
1 GB Ram
160GB Disk

I have no problems recording to locally attached storage.

Both systems are at 100MB Full Duplex so I don't think it's a question of bandwidth. Looking through the log files in the gbpvr section I noticed that it did complain about writing to the network dir and then spit out a few reasons. I didn't save the reasons at the time as it was late and I figured I would just paste them in here in the AM. It seems though that gbpvr overwrites the log files? Which brings up another question: What is with the word -native- in some log files?


Lastly, I tried to use the Zap2IT since I am in US but it never works. There is a lot of network activity for a min or so and then nothing. I have to manually cancel the EPG update. I did go through a couple of threads with EPG problems and I can manually use the perl xmltv tools on the linux box with no problem to get a channel listing. Looking through the log files I did see:

I have an account at both the labs.zap2it a the normal one and they both work. I am happy to use xmltv right now. Just wanted to report this as it might be useful.

Everything else is great! Thanks so much for this really cool application!

This is from the gbpvr.exe.log file:

It looks like the MediaHelper flakes when trying to deal with M:\ which is the shared drive.

Thanks!

Hey all, i just installed GB-PVR instead of sageTv, and i am really impressed. However i stumbled upon a few problems.
I have a Hauppage PVR-350 tv-tuner card

1. I have a HOME button on my remote, is it possible to remap it so it launches gb-pvr instead of wintv ?

2. Is it possible to play divX and Xvid files in the gb-pvr user interface?

3. Major problem, when i change channel in livetv mode, sometimes it freezes the whole computer! It totallt stalls. but it only happens sometimes, really weird?

4. And does anyone know how to enable auto-login in windows? so i dont have to type username and password when the computer starts?

download: version 1.1

My Programs Features
- Applications
- Utilities
- Games
- Emulators

apps, utils,games allow you to launch standard .lnk (windows shortcut files) from gbpvr.

emulators you need to specify a few things, like emulator exe, rom path, command line arguments. this allows you to have countless emulators and to launch any rom from inside gbpvr. only requirement is that the emulator must either be command line based, or allow command line switches. most emulators do allow this, so theres no real problem.

you must specify directories for your apps, utils, games and roms all of which allow sub directory so you dont have to browse through 10000 roms trying to find your favourite.

any questions, comments, let me know.

enjoy.

i wonder if this will make htpcnews.com

Hi,

I have a Leadtek Winfast TV2000 XP Expert card and wondered if there was any support for this card planned for GBPVR?

Thanks.

Hi all!

I'm writing from Italy and I'm ready to buy a
tv card. In Italy we just started with DVB-T
and I'd like to have a device that supports both
analog and digital broadcasting.
What about this one?

Is it supported?

Any suggest?

Thanks in advice.

Hi!

I would like to sometimes control my HTPC without turning on any screens or TVs, i.e. for playing back MP3s/Oggs/Audio CDs. To have feedback about were I am currently in GBPVR's main menu I wanted to have the currently highlighted menu item displayed on a LCD (e.g. via LCDPlugIn). Is it possible to get information about the currently highlighted menu item? Maybe through some further EventTypes in the EventTypes Enum?

Thank you!

Best wishes!

shrimp..

Btw. Would it be possible to get my hands on the GBPVR source code somehow

Hi everybody!

Hope I have here again some new information to you: I got Audio CD playback working with the MyMusic plugin. All you have to do is to install CDDAReader (use 'regsvr32 cddareader.ax' to register the filter) and add .cda file extension to MyMusic plugin's configuration. Unfortunately order of the CD tracks seems to be a bit odd.
I'm sure MusicLibrary would also work that way, if .cda files weren't filtered.

Regards,

shrimp
