Does the TV Guide work in New Zealand, if so how do I get it to work, i have nothing showing on the screen when I select Tv Guide

i was just wondering what the universal buttons should be, like what button should be used for page up/down, change view etc. the common functions found in various plugins, red/yellow was used in a few plugins for page up/down, then sub used green/blue for page up/down in tv guide, i was just wondering if we should stick to certain buttons, just to make the functions universal. so i say we give it a vote.

blue/green seem better for page up/down, but blue was taken for switch view in video library (so i kept blue as switch view in my plugins and used red/yellow for page up/down). so we need to get some order!

heres what i can think of for common functions
<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">
page up
page down
switch view
information (movie info, dvd info, i think this is used a fair bit).

im sure theres more or something. anway heres my vote
green = page up, blue = page down, yellow = switch view, red = info.

sub can you make it so the page up/down, is relative to the top channel, not to the highlighted, so the top index is always incremented by the number of channels displayed and so is the selected index. i mean currently if you highlight the very first channel and press page down, the page now only displays one extra channel and not a whole page of new channels. it just doesnt feel natural, im not sure if im explaining this right, but if you look at &quot;My Videos&quot; plugin and try doing a page down/page up in there that will show you what i mean (do it in details view with lots of files to get the best idea).

I have a hauppauge 350 and I know if I connect my console to it and then use the tv-out hardware encoding will be used and there will thus be a noticeable wait due to the encoding. If I use my computer monitor, and thus software encoding, will this still be the case however?

I have found a huge difference in performance if I turn the panels on the main menu on.

If the panels are on, the TV Guide is very sluggish.

In VideoArchiver, I have measaured the time to scroll once through my complete list of shows. With the panels on, it takes 80 seconds. Without the panels, it takes 40 seconds!

The panels must be using a lot of the available cpu cycles?

I have found that the Flat Blue Hi Visibility skin (the new for 23.8) is much more sluggish than the standard Blue skin. Not only in the menus, but also in some plugins.

Strangely, I have measured that (initial) scrolling through a list of shows in Jeff's VideoArchive plugin takes appr. 30% longer if the Flat Blue Hi Visibility skin is used, compared to standard Blue. It is hard to see how the skin can have such a huge difference. Go figure...

I have much fewer reboots on my MediaMVP with the standard Blue skin than I had with Flat Blue Hi Vis.

First Sub, I'd like to say that GBPVR is an amazing application.

With .227 I was able to watch divx/xvid shows. After installing .238, I just get a blank screen when trying to play them. I even tried completely removing .227 before installing .238 and the same thing happened. After uninstalling .238 and reinstalling .227, I can watch xvid/divx movies again.

Any ideas? Has anyone else had this problem?

I have recently aquired a LifeView FlyTV 34FM :-)

Trying to get it to work with the GO plugin.

The GraphEdit Filters are:
LifeView TV Tuner
LifeView FlyVideo TV Audio
LifeView FlyVideo CrossBar
LifeView WDM Video Capture

I added &quot;LifeView FlyVideo&quot; to the go.ini, and renamed &quot;LifeView WDM Video Capture&quot; to &quot;LifeView FlyVideo A/V Capture&quot; in the registry.  It gets further but I think there's a bug in the GO code.

This is particularly because of these two VERBOSE errors:
ConnectPins: 'Video Decoder Out' to 'Analog Audio In'
Failed to connect Crossbar 'Video Decoder Out' to Capture 'Analog Video In'

Notice how it's trying to join Video to Audio, and then denies it :-)

contextual logs are attached.

For those people that have been emailing me, or posting in random topics - the registration feature of the forums is working again.

sub can you make it so in the main menu folder, you can use say &quot;[submenuname].png&quot; as the task image for the submenu, and add &quot;task.png&quot; to the main menu, to be used on every main menu button. i think that would be the best way to do it.

cheers,

hehe main menu task.png works now, i knew i shud have checked that one; so now im wondering if the submenu task image is already available, is it?
