Hi there,
during install some questions came up.

I have the problem that prior to the import of the XMLTV data into GBPVR I must update the XMLTV data.
For that I must run a separate application.

I searched a bit in the forum and it´s stated that if a Batch file UpdateEPG.Bat exists this is executed prior to the EPG update of GBPVR.

I read in one post that it might not run.
Does is work properly in the most recent version ?

If I setup my PC to go into hibernate, is it restarted if the update is necessary ?


Another question :
What happens if a recording is running at the time where EPG update whould take place ?
Is the EPG Update started after the recording or during it ?


What must I do to hibernate my PC if it doesn´t record ?
What must I do that the computer restarts if a recording is scheduled ?
Is the restart at the exact starting time of the scheduled recording or some seconds or a minute earlier ?


Regards
Sven

Is there new informations available for the display (other than mp3) in the new version of GBPVR?
Thx

I've been using GB-PVR for a week or so now and only last night finally got a usb-uirt (I have a DirecTV receiver) to really be able to take advantage of what the software can do. What I've noticed is when you have a program setup to be recorded it starts recording then changes the channel, so I get a bit of one channel, then the numbers being entered to change the channel, and so on at the begining of the recording. Is it possible to configure or tweak GB-PVR to change the channel then start recording say 10 seconds later?

Thanks!

Hi all,

I´m very satisfied from gbpvr, but the last version hang if i leave Live-TV. I´ve read in a other thread version 227 is work fine with PVR-350. So my question: Is there a location to download a older or this version.

thx

I remember reading somewhere on here that the recording audio level had been increased in the most recent updates.

I started with 0.23.11 and am know using 0.23.13 and have noticed slight distortion of the audio. It sounds like maybe the audio is being overdriven when it is recorded. Kinda like when you turn the stereo up to much except I don't have the volumn turned up!!

Has anyone else experienced this??

Sub,
Keep up the good work!!

I was wondering if it would be difficult to add more hardware support?

I haven't tried GBPVR since it doesn't support DVB-cards which is a must have for me. I have no doubts that media file handling works good enough so I see no point to try it yet.

But as a developer I would be willing to consider adding the support myself.

Especially Twinhan has an easy to use SDK freely downloadable and if it is easy to add I think I would switch card to them and add the support to GBPVR. I got a Hauppauge Nexus card today and I also got the SDK for that card but it is not as easy to use though more powerful.

So what would be needed to add a new hardware?

Is there a generic hardware interface so one could just add a dll and an external application that does the (usually) one time configuration setup (channel scanning, etc) and then it works with the rest of GBPVR functionality?

Dear sub,

I am in Europe and stuck without EPG,
so would it be possible to eliminate (or make bigger) this one hour Timeshift limit?
I did pause it as you said, but it still breaks it into one hour segments...

Thanks
Peter

The AddReOccuring recordings utility has been added to the Wiki.

When I watch LiveTV, video is too slow for watching while audio is working perfect. I figured it could be because of the buffering to disk, but why would audio be no problem at all?

Anyway, is there a way to disable buffering and to watch tv directly from the card? I don't care about timeshifting.

If it's not the buffer, what's the most common reason for slow video? My comp. has no problems at all when I watch a divx for example, so I don't think it's the disk or comp. speed..


edit: nevermind, I just saw at the wiki that it's impossible to disable this 'feature'

Just to let everyone know I am still working on this, I had hoped to get a release out to coincide with the new version of gbpvr but people's mad panic before christmas has meant I have been very busy at work, plus I have just built my new HTPC machine and have been twiddling with that.

I am hopefully going to get a release ready for christmas, I am just adding a few graphical options to the screens and a few more things to the settings page
