I came across a problem when playing back a recording the fast forward and skip key will work fine on a 30 minute program. But with I play back a 60 minute recording around 43 minutes and try to fast forward or use the skip key ( to skip commercials) the program will freeze. I can shut off the MEDIAMVP unit and reload GB-PVR V0.19 and it will show the recording list with the program I was playing if I hit any key the screen will go blank I shut off the MVP and some times I can get the Main Menu page to come up but none of the keys will work and the TV Guide is highlighted and GB-PVR is locked. I can go to my computer and try to end GB-PVR but it will not close and I get a beep from my computer. I have to go the Task Manger (ctr-alt-del key) and stop GB-PVR and the error program not responding is shown then I tell it to close down.

This has happen several times playing back recordings it seem to play back fine if I do not use the skip of fast forward key after about 40 minutes in to the recording.

I can play back the recordings with the MEDIAMVP (Hauppauge software) and use the numbers keys to skip to 1 ie 10% 9 ie 90% in to the one hour recording or use the skip key with is a 30 second jump with no problem.

I am using the 250 Hauppauge card, a wired router connected to the MEDIAMVP, a Maxtor USB2 160G hardrive to record and play back the video. WinXP, P4 1.8G and 512 RDRAM (Rambus) memory in my computer.

Thanks.

Hello, I noticed that this software is the only TV application(that's not in Japanese ) that has an EPG and also supports the GO7007SB encoder. The Lifeview TV Walker uses this chipset, but it appears as if the PVR is looking for a specific WIS driver, as my crossbar is called the Lifeview TV Walker mini Crossbar, and this is the error in the log:
<table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">03:08:54.157 ERROR Failed to find crossbar filter: WIS GO7007SB CrossBar[/QUOTE]I have found no other driver available for the WIS encoder, other than the ConvertX driver, and it will not work with the Walker. I did find the WIS GO7007SB SDK, but the zip file has a somewhat long password so I can only view it's contents. Also, in the Config utility, I noticed the lack of a tuner option when choosing the GO7007SB generic driver. Does this mean that the tuner will not work at all, or that it will work in a generic fashion? All of the other PVR apps I have tried worked the Walker's tuner just fine, and most even showed good video. None would record though, and only a few(those without an EPG) would render the audio, which you seem to already have worked out.... It seems that I am so very close to getting the software to work, even the EPG is working very well(unrelated, I know). Here is an image of a simple test graph that I built showing all of the Walker's filter names. I also have a list of their identifiers somewhere(or the graph file, itself) if that would help. So is there anything simple I can do to get this working? Seems like a simple label change is all it would take... I don't mind getting my hands dirty, if I need to(I've already scoured the Config.xml and the ini files...) in order to get this working. Any thoughts?

Thank in advance,
Hitek

I am trying to setup PVRs at two different geographic locations. Zap2It actually has a provision for multiple program listings. However, GBPVR tries to pool both listings together. Is there any way to select a particular listing? Or do I need to setup another Zap2It account?

Hi, I am having trouble changing the recording quality with my Plextor PX-M402U. It seems to always be stuck on Medium. If I change the setting, exit the config program, and rerun it, the setting always returns to Medium. I am running the latest build.

k, sorry if these seems a really basic question but I have become very confused about some parts of this PVR. I have almost no experience with PVR's apart from WinTV2000. I managed to get all the channels set up, and I can record and watch the recordings no problems. Just 2 questions, why when I watch LiveTV do i just get the message &quot;Video is playing back using TV out&quot; I only have my monitor with my computer is there anyway I can just get the TV to appear on the monitor like in WinTV2000 or is this mainly designed for playback through a TV, also when I am watching the blank screen my recording folder is recording the LiveTV is there anyway I can disable this as it takes up vast amounts of room after a while (same thing happens with radio). This is an awsome program and I am sure it is just me being a idiot... Cheerz for any help

P.S. Sys Specs
WinXP Pro
PIV 1.7Ghz
ATI Radeon 9700Pro
Haupauge PVR 350
Audigy 2 ZS
(think those are the only relevent ones)

Hello!
I have a PVR-350 and just installed GB-PVR. As I have a digital cable NTL box so the only methods I can use to connect NTL to my HTPC is via Scart Out to S-Video in on PVR-350 (via multipin) or RF-OUT to RF-IN on PVR-350. BUT, if I could use the S-Video in on the Sigma Designs X-Card, I wouldn't need the PVR-350 at all!!
Is there any way this can be achieved? Is it really simple or am I missing something altogether?
Also, it seems that whatever I output to the TV from, there only seems to be 256 colours, which makes the lovely backdrops on GB-PVR look like my nans worst wallpaper! I've tried all options I can think of changing but no luck! My desktop is set to 32bit colours, and it looks fine on a normal screen output from the back of my graphics card (GeForce FX5200 128MB). Help!
Thanks in advance!

Hi,

I've been at it a couple of days trying to get my PVR 250 running with GB-PVR.
I have to say I like this app a lot. Very promising!

I do have some issues that probably are just newbie questions. I haven't been able to find these answers through searching the forums though.
Here goes.

1. Web service
This was one of the main reasons for me to go with GB-pvr. The webserver can't seem to find the station icons and just displays blanks. Do I need to edit the &quot;showlogos.aspx&quot; or is there a simpler way.
Another thing is the display on a Pocket PC. Has anyone modified the default web service to be more PPC friendly?

2. EPG
I'm using O2Grabber for Denmark (5 days of listings). While I do get listings showed they are not accurate programs are mixed from several days and showtimes are off too. GB-pvr crashes if I run it with &quot;-updateEPG&quot;, could that be the problem?

3. Black vertical bars
I'm getting these (about 5% of the screen both in the left and right side of the screen) in live-tv and the recordings. Wintv doesn't have them. What gives?

4. Channel settings
I have most channels setup, but a few won't show at all. I had to scan for channels using both antenna and cable to get all the channels. GB-pvr seems only to use one of the two. The problem is that some channel numbers are repeated (with two different channels), making it hard to choose the right channel number. Any thoughts on this?


Any help would be very appreciated. And thanks for a great program!

Hi,

I'm having troubles recording. Today I scheduled two programs for record. One seems to be recorded allright, but the second one is only recorded for the first 5 minutes or so. I checked the logs and the recording service did not stop the recording after 5 minutes but after 30 minutes (show end time). However the resulting plays for only 5 minutes and its about 250 megs in size. Any ideas whats happening here?

Hi All,

Has anyone got RED-EYE Remote working with a Sky UK . When I setup and configure the remote in GB-PVR Capture Sources you can see the first 2 digits changing on the Sky Box ,but the 3rd digit won't change so all you get is eg:- 10_. I have tryed the various options in the capture .exe
config but no joy. When I type the command on a winxp command line the channel changes ok.
eg:- red -port=com1 1.0.7 ,but as you can see I have to put
full stops between the numbers for a 100ms delay.

Regards
Joe
