Fantastic piece of software and working well with my pvr 250, but I can't for the life of me work out how to get it onto my MVP. Is there a dummies guide anywhere please?

Regards

Jules

Thought you'd be interested. A buddy of mine did a write up about his MediaMVP + PVR250 + GBPVR setup. Although if you are over here, it's kinda preaching to the choir, so to speak =)

Thrifty PVR Article over at Build Your Own PVR site...

Note: just thought it would be of interest, if the post seems too "self promotional" mods feel free to delete it and/or drop me a line.

I think it's ontopic and relevant, but you never know if it'll come across more as a blatant site plug (which it kinda is) =)

Hello
I'm currently using 0.18I and think about upgrading.

Is there a way to keep the channel settings (Channel numbers and order) while upgrading?
It takes always a lot of time to add all channels again and then to order them each time I make an update.

Hello,

I have an Albatron GeForce FX 5900XTV 128MB w/ VIVO

Are their any plans to support my VIVO card?

I was looking into BeyondTV at first but theres is unsupported. I am willing to donate what BeyondTV costs if I can get it to work.

First, this is great software, but to be really usefull the skip bug should be fixed.  This is the only bug left keeping me from switching from my sage TV & mediaMVP (with hauppauge software) to GBPVR.

1) On some files the skip works, on some other files (same encoder PVR350 for all my files) it doesn't work at all (the GBPVR server craches).  I noticed that the file position is all wrong on these files when file starts to play.
2) It would be nice to have the hauppauge feature: 1 jump to 10% of the file, 2 jump to 20%, ...
3) skip function in live TV mode doesn't work, but that one is already in the release notes I think.  Hauppauge can do this but they do not recalculate the file length, so for growing files (watching Live), even they have a problem.

I can do some tests for you, if you like me to help you solve this.
I have a PAL 350 and MediaMVP revision E1.

Keep up the excellent work!

Hi,

maybe somebody with a convertX can answer this question. I'm currently using a pvr-usb2 and end up with .MPG files. Are the files that you capture with the convertX also mpg ? Or does it save them as .AVI ?

Cheers,

Oliver

The next release is available for download. You can get it from http://www.gbpvr.com/GBPVR0193.msi

You'll need to uninstall any existing version, but you can retain some of your settings by renaming config.xml to config.retained before uninstalling. This will happen automatically in future releases.

From the change.log

2004-7-26 v0.19
- Corrected a problem with the MVP when two or more NICs are installed in the server
- Now able to directly boot MVP without using Hauppauge software. This still requires a DHCP server to be available for the MVP to get an IP address on you network. Home networking routers often contain DHCP servers. Also, if you have Windows ICS (Internet Connection Sharing) enabled, this acts as a DHCP server.
- Improved FF/RW on MVP. Previously it behaved very badly on many MPEG2/MPEG1 files.
- More reliably handling MVP power cyle and standby cycle.
- MVP updating the current play position more often. Previously it could be out of date for a second or so after skipping or durring FF/RW.
- Fixed a couple of problems with GO7007SB recordings for NTSC users.
- Implemented event notification plugin mechanism to allow developer to write support for LCD support etc. These plugins need to implement IEventNotification - see the developer forum for more detail.
- Added Bleb.org EPG plugin for UK users. Much easier to set up and use than XMLTV, but doesn't have quite as many channels available. Give it a go.
- Changes to the skin files. If you'd like to change the background image, this is now much easier. Simply save the image as background.jpg in c:\program files\devnz\gbpvr\skin\<Current Skin>.
- Main menu now wraps around. Also scrolls if too many items are on the front menu. Flat Blue skin is now using a new approach to main menu buttons, which keeps the active selection centered. These styles are configurable in the skin files.
- Fixed a problem with deleting failed season recordings.
- A few changes to the recordings screen to separate out ready/pending/reoccurring recordings. Hopefully people find this easier to read.
- New setup program. Installshield which I previously used, was driving me nuts. This has also required a slight change to the version numbering scheme. Minor version numbers will now use numbers not letters.
- Channels now wrap around in live tv when using the up and down buttons. Same thing applies to mini guide.
- Added system menu option to get window to stay in the foreground. Right click on the GB-PVR task in taskbar to see its system menu.
- Added an option to allow you to use a short skip instead of FF/RW. It defaults to 10 seconds but can be changed in config.xml if required.
- Several small improvements for net radio. Also, fixed a bug that would cause Net Radio to be very slow starting.
- Added option with USB-UIRT and IR200L IR blasters to send "Enter" key after channel digits.
- Added a "search guide" screen. I may add more search options in future, but at least it is a start.
- Added FM Radio support - requires capture card that supports it (such PVR350/PVR USB2/PV258TF) and LAME MP3 encoder filter to be installed. You can get this free from http://www.elecard.com/ftp/pub/directsho...dshow.zip.
- Added option in direct.ini to force mono and also to change the language channel used for recordings.
- Added daily comic plugin. I've made the comics as big as I can on the screen. Most are readible, but the occasional one has text that is a bit too small.
- Added an option to season record with a timeslot.
- Showing sub-title in a few more places if it is available.

Just wondering if anyone can tell me if thier are any plans on supporting an ATI All In Wonder PCI card?  Or if anyone has gotten it to work or knows how to?

Is is possible to display a movie cover in the video library for each folder? I believe it can be done for music but have had no luck with the video library.

Thanks

Simon
