I get the 'Failed to communicate with the GB-PVR Recording Service' message?
I have an 'XP Media Center' pc and .net 1.1 IS installed.??
I also have a Hauppauge Roslyn card.

Edit 1: What I meant is that .net was already on the machine.
It is also needed for another application I run.

I have this problem when I play Divx or Xvid files with GB-PVR

All my movies is played in 4/3 even though they are i 16/9. This means that the picture is strecth to fit the screen.

I hope some one can help me.

It would be really nice if GB-PVR had support for the Pinnacle Showcenter.

I have Hauppauge PVR-250 and a Showcenter - and if possible it would be great if I could control recordings with the Showcenter - so that I don't have to go to my pc to set up the recordings and of course have all the features of GB-PVR on the Showcenter.

Is this at all posible or do I have to keep dreaming.

I have been looking at the OpenShowCenter project, but the GB-PVR seems to be stable and better features.

The Media MVP only supports MPEG1/2.

Most of my movies are in DivX format - is there any software that provides a realtime conversion from MPEG4 to MPEG2 for the Media MVP?

Its gonna be a real pain to have to convert all my movies before I can watch them thru the MVP.

Cheers all, sorry shouldve posted this with my other q

Ive got an MVP on order now, should be here in a few days.

My question is this:
If i want to simultaneouly record one channel and playback another, do i need to have 2 PVR cards? Im pretty sure the answer is yes.

Also, possibly this will only be for UK users, can i plug a freeview box into the PVR card in the MVP server to get all the free-to-air channels i currently get? That way i can watch/record 30 channels instead of the standard 5..

Thanks all
mafro

I noticed this was a little strange. The r in weather is getting wrapped to the next line. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Copy and paste the link into your address bar. Cheapass free web hosting sites. Sorry!!!!

I would like it if pressing the up arrow key on the remote while the TVGuide button is highlighted makes the bottom button ("exit&quot highlighted and vice versa.  In other words I would like to be able to go from the top of the list to the bottom by pressing the up arrow, rather than having to press the down arrow several times, and vice versa.

Also, if you add too many plugins, the buttons run off the bottom of the screen. Would be helpful if you could have it automatically start a second row.

You have a fantastic product.  Thanks for all your work.

Question:  I have a Win-DTV card.  Would you be interested in letting you borrow it to make GBPVR compatible with this card?  I think having DTV available would be a great addition to GBPVR.  I think it would make GBPVR about the only PVR software that could make use of that card.

For anyone using the previous versions of GrabEPG or requiring UK TV listing information version 1.3 of GrabEPG is now available from www.rubiconsystems.com/tv/grabepg13.zip

Changes from the original version:

* Added support for proxy servers
* Added channel list updates to track the changing list available from http://www.bleb.org
* Added channel list editing to allow you to customise your list

Feedback always welcome.

Hi,

Can someone help me? Thanks to everyone!

Will GB-pvr only work with the USB version of the tv2000? I'm not getting it to work so far (total time spent on 15 mins) :-)
