This must have been brought up before, but I did a quick search for it and couldn't find it.
Surely it wouldn't be too hard to allow GB-PVR to record the radio? If it's not possible to have an EPG for the radio (as in nobody supplies the data) then you could allow the user to just pick timeslots to record? I know that the hauppauge radio app doesn't allow recording either which implies that there might be something hard to it, but I can't see how there is,,, even if it has to be saved as a movie file with just a blank screen...
I don't know if this has been suggested before, or even if remotely possible so apologies in advance if needed.
When browsing the miniguide (green button on Hauppauge remote), you can advance through the channels using the up/down buttons. How about also being able to look forward and back through the timeslots using the left/right buttons (temporarily disabling the volume control obviously). This way, you could also see not just what is on now but also what is on next in any given channel.
Alternatively, you could simply show 'now' and 'next' (program titles only, no description) - this would provide similar functionality to that of the Sky Digital box.
It would also be nice to be able to press OK at a program slot shown in the miniguide and have the exit/quick/record/cancel dialog appear, without interrupting the live tv view.
Again, apologies if this has been mentioned before or isn't possible.
Hi
I an in the UK connected to NTL cable network my problem is that GBPVR will not tune to the lower frequency cable channels, is there a way to manually tune or a file that can be edited.
The reason I ask this is that a channel Sky one is transmitted unscrambled but I can't tune to this.
Wintv2000 picks it up ok on channel 5 but itâs not a patch on GBPVR
Been trying to use GB-PVR for a while and its working out quite well. A great piece of programming.
I had 2 questions:
1. Every time I playback a recorded movie it will play in a "windowed" mode with the movie playing in a window with the taskbar showing. The rest of the program works as it should, taking over the entire screen (as I set this in the setup application) so you cannot see the taskbar, etc. The taskbar returns only when I playback a recorded file (or any file with the player). Is there any way to fix this so that it plays full screen? Can I have playback of all files by an external player like Zoom Player? Suggestions?
2. I have set recording quality to low, but still find a 1 hr program takes up 1.8 gigs. Is there a way to reduce the file size further or further customize the capture size?
I am running the latest version (0.22 I believe).
Again, great product! I look forward to future updates.
I'm already the happy owner of a pvr350, and everything that should work, also works perfectly with gbpvr.
But now i would like to upgrade my system, so that i can play divx movies too, with a nice quality. And i heard that every tvout on a videocard is not very good (i tried it with a nvidia 4200 and nvidea 5600, and im not happy with the quality.) So the only thing i need is a good tvout. So which one is the best? The xcard or the mediamvp (it needs to be compatible too with gbpvr of course).
It should work with subtitles, otherwise it's not very usable. And dvd and divx.
Or are there better products on the market that are a better solution? (and not too expensive)
sub can you make it possible to move a main menu item up and down in the config app. like how m$ does all there toolbar options, have say two listboxes one with all the available buttons (including plugins and dvd button) and another one with the choosen main menu items. like have a button to add,remove, move up, move down etc. just my dvd button is under shut down and its kinda wierd. just be nice to be able to place them nicer.
if you dont know what i mean just right click in ie on the toolbar and goto customize.
In the TV Guide screen, I would love to be able to skip left/right by one page worth (2 hours I guess). Could you make the fast forward and rewind buttons do this. (or add a config option for how far the skip forward and back buttons skip so this can be set to 2 hours instead of 1 day).
It would be nice to allow adding recordings by using command-line options of gbpvr to support people which must use external EPG programs.
Maybe it could look like as follows:
gbpvr -OnlyAddRecording <filename> -Quality <quality> -Channel <channel> -Start <start_time> -Duration <duration>
Okay, trying to run a debug for the Search page I'm working on for the GBPVR Web Admin, except I keep getting the following error tossed at me by Cassini:

Sub, any idea why I'm getting this. I tried adding it to the GAC and the Configured Assemblies, but still get the above. Only happens when I run through Cassini, but if I access the GBPVR I don't get that message.
