If possible I think an additional Season 'Record Type' would be very useful. I make use of the 'Record Season (all episodes in this timeslot, this channel)' which is great, but I end up with duplicate shows as they are often repeated in the same timeslot but later in the week. May need to think of a catchier description but I think a 'Record Season (all episodes in this timeslot on this day of the week, this channel)' option would be very beneficial.
Was familiarizing myself some more with GB-PVR and decided to try playing a DVD. The DVD plays fine and with a little trial and error (i.e. button mashing every button), discovered that the Blue button on my Hauppauge remote takes me to the main menu and that the OK, FFWD, RWD and skip buttons seem to work as expected.
However, I was wondering if it's possible to control the DVD menu using the remote. None of the buttons on the remote seem to control the cursor on the screen so, short of using the mouse, it doesn't appear that I can select things such as Scene Selections and Bonus Features.
I thought I could hack the irremote.ini file and add in some directional controls (somehow), but I see that GB-PVR has commands for all the buttons already. I don't think that one can overload button functions so I'm not sure if this is feasible (although I do notice that WinTV has multiple entries; can I do the same thing for GB-PVR?). Is there any way to control the DVD's Menu using the remote?
That said, I was wondering how DVD playback is done. Does GB-PVR call on another application to do the DVD Playback? If so, then would it be possible for me to program in button controls for that other application using the irremote.ini file to do the things I'd like it to do (for sure, basic things like move the cursor left, right, up, and down and perhaps more advanced things like Zoom, Subtitles, Audio, etc)? Don't mind doing the work myself, just need a little nudge in the right direction.
I have just bought a new PVR 350 but I have a problem with the remote. It seems to be working fine in the menus, but as soon as I start Live TV I get a message box with title "IR Startup" and the message "Found IR Controller(30) FW version=16" I looked into the logs, but there seems to be nothing logged for this problem.
Please help this looks like a great program but with this problem I cannot use it.
I also have another informative question. I used to live in the US and my TV is NTSC. Now that I moved in Europe I had to use an NTSC/PAL converter to be able to see any TV. My PVR is PAL, but I would like to use the TV out of the 350 but output NTSC video to the TV in order to bypass the converter, which screws up the picture quality. Is there a way to convert the format on the fly to NTSC format?
Thank you very much, any help would be appreciated.
When I try to change the quality profile setting from medium to high, it goes back to medium. I am able to change the medium bitrate and it stays but I'm curious as to why I'm not able to keep the high setting.
On another note, anyone familiar with the Sonic decoder:http://www.cineplayer.com/decoder/
I have some problems in the higher channel range I've not had with my old AIW card and nothings changed on the cable side except my new system and card.
Thanks
I read this same problem a while back, and it started to happen to me also:
A recording show used to work fine, then recently I tried to make Season Pass again and it refuses.. Only one show showing this" Daily Show with John Stewart.
Other shows are recording fine..
Any idea why this is happening? and how to resolve it?
I can manually Hibernate my GBPVR PC (I've configured Power Options so that pressing the power button hibernates), and GBPVR does wake up from Hibernation to record shows.
However, despite setting the power options to Hibernate after a period of inactivity, it never does this. I can leave the PC on overnight, with the GBPVR GUI closed and just the recording service active, and next morning it still has not gone into Hibernation.
Is there any trick to this? Is there anything I need to do in GBPVR to enable Hibernation?
Okay. I downloaded and configured GB-PVR on my computer. Now I want to use the application on my Media MVP. Do I need to disable/uninstall the Hauppauge software? I see that you need to have the GB server open which I do. What exctly do I need to do so that I won't see the Hauppauge GUI, but rather the GB-PVR?
