I've just got my MVP and am very pleased with it but when displaying MPEG1 (music) videos, there's a black band at the bottom of the screen. Does everyone else get this too? It looks as if maybe the picture is being pushed up by 2 inches (on a 28" WS TV) although it's fine for MPEG2 files and the normal GB-PVR screen.
It happens using the Hauppauge software, as well as under GB-PVR, so it's clearly something wrong at the MVP end but I thought I'd ask here anyway as you're all using it too.
Also, is there any way of adjusting GB-PVR to fill the screen? There's a small border around it at all times.
I've just got myself a MediaMVP and am amazed at how well it works with GB-PVR, nice work Sub!
One little problem though, video files with an apostrophe in the filename crash the MVP version (but not the straight one). It fails with a .NET Framework error. This should be easy to replicate but if not, let me know and I'll check it again for more details.
I'm using the latest beta version of the MVP software/drivers from the web site.
Hi!
I have already tried a few releases of this piece of software and I must say that I am really impressed how far you have come with development. Actually the sofware is now really usable for me, since overscan adjustment of the gui was added (thanks sub!! ).
Although I have managed to setup gbpvr quite nicely for my needs I still have a few probs:
- First, the new release should provide the possibility to change the rows displayed in the epg. Well don´t hit me for this question, but....I do not know where I can find the configuration options for the epg..???
- Second point is, that, since I am speaking german, I tried to change the GUI language to german with dottore´s file. But unfortunately the translation didn´t work out nicely for me because the german descriptions seem to be to long and thus are just cut off in the middle of the word. Is there a workaround for this issue?

This may already be possible and I missed it,
BUT
I'd like the ability to classify my recordings
1. Shows specifically picked with the intention of watching asap.
2. Shows that I typically watch but want recorded incase I am not able to watch when broadcast
3. Shows that I setup to record so I'll have something to watch when there is nothing else to do.
Type #1 is only to be erased manually
Type #2 will be erased automatically after a given time
Type #3 will be erased based on any of several criteria (max directory size, time period, ??)
I can handle the creation of a task that can run periodically to do the cleanup
But I would like to be able to specify the type when I setup the recording.
This can either be by the selection of a specific directory
or
by a value in the recording database.
Any hope or would I be the only one to use something like this
Well, this is wonderful stuff! Congratulations.
I've been using MCE and XBMC and Beyond TV and Media Portal and Meedio and MyHTPC and some of my own software for over a year now and your stuff is as good or better than most!
Many kudos. I haven't even tried the PVR stuff yet (that's all at home) and I'm still very impressed. The interface is fast and simple ( although we'll have to see how it handles my big music library ). You've included some great plugins with the base package and some great extra ones for download. So far it's all easy-peasy.
Forgive my enthusiasm but it's just good to see something done right from the start. I don't think Media Portal or Meedio stand up to your product.
