I'm using the avermedia M150 and when I either look for a listing in tv guide and select a show to watch live tv, or go directly to the live tv button, it's between 8-10 seconds before it actually starts. Is this normal in the software or is it my capture card's fault? I couldn't see anything until I installed a software MPEG2 decoder (stinky MPEG2 codec). I thought this card has an mpeg2 decoder, or is that handled by my video card? (running a geforce 2 MX200). Even that isn't a big deal since I"m probably going to mostly be using it to watch pre-recorded shows rather than watching live tv, but here's another question. How do I get back to the main menu when I'm either watching live TV or a pre-recorded show? and can I fast forward a recorded show somehow? I'm using a wireless keyboard until I find a remote I like, so if someone can just tell me what keyboard command works I'd appreciate it.

Hi,
There is (I think) a mistake, when switching to liveTV. You send
twice CurrentChannelName with channel name, then channel number. You do not send the "CurrentChannelNumber" event.

After my LCD plugin, I may work on a DVD writer plugin with the Nero API, have you planned to do something for the DVD recording, or is there someone working on that?
Is there a chance you'll put GBPVR on sourceforge to find people working with you? it could be nice to have GBPVR on Windows like MythTV for linux.

I have this card and am using the included winfast PVR application which is OK but nothing to get excited about.

I am thinking of giving GBPVR a try and saw that the PVR2000
is supported but the only thread I found on setting up and using the card with full functionality sort of left things hanging. I wonder if just including the script that sub provided in the ini file is enough. I will of be using the latest 1007 drivers from Leadtek, but I note that the connexant drivers were mentioned on the SageTV site and could make the card work with their application. Does anyone know if this would make a difference. Finally I would like to use the firely remote with this card (via girder is need be). Anyone know how this might be accomplished or would I need a blaster with learning to mimic the Leadtek remote since it is directly connect to the card and not USB/serial etc.

TIA

I have everything working like a charm (two 250 tuners) and I just hooked it all up to the TV in the living room. After a small modification to make it output on the TV, there is a small, small problem:

The video on the TV now has a small, but noticable stutter. It just "jumps" a tiny amount, otherwise it all looks and works like a charm. Do I need a better TV OUT (maybe the pvr 350) or XCard, or is there something else I can do?

yes, I am new at this, so any help is appreciated.

PS. GB PVR rocks!

A quick question about dual tuners (that is, having two TV cards in the same PC)...

Do they both have to be the same? I'd like to add a second tuner. The PC is full so I'm thinking about a Hauppauge USB-2. The existing tuner is a Blackbird based unit by Asus, I think (PC is an HP media center system) and works great. Would that combination work OK? Anyone using a USB-2 box?

Thanks...

I am new to this whole BYO PVR scene and I'd really like to have my own GBPVR box.  I have an old PC with an ASUS V8200 Deluxe graphics card with s-video in and out.  I have DirecTV Satalite.  So the question is will my video card work as a sufficient capture device and I could get an IR deal to control the tuner or am I going to need to get some cheap TV card with s-video in that is supported on the list?
Also I am a total video junky and have an HDTV so I'd like the best picture quality possible.  Should I envest in that XCard with composite output?  Any suggestions?

Anyone have a profile to import for controlling GBPVR with an Ahanix iMon remote (using Ahanix's software)? I've played with it a little, but haven't been able to figure out a control scheme that I really like.

By the way, just want to give a big pat on the back to Sub. This application is great! A donation is imminent.

I have just installed a PVR350 and connected it to my sky digibox. When I connect to the RF out I can scan and pick up all the channels and I get a average picture however whan I connect to S Video in I get nothing. My Sky box has a scart output so I am using a scart to svideo cable. Maybe this is the problem, maybe this doesn't give a true s video source. On WINTV 2000 I can scan the tuner but not the s video input. Any ideas?

i was wndering if it's possible or in the works to do a NetVideo recording similar to the NetRadio for streaming video?

Hi,
Sorry to ask so many questions, here is my last one :
How can I retrieve the position in the video file or DVD played,
just the way it's done for the mp3 files with PluginHelperFactory?
Thanks for helping
