See attached screenshot - not noticed this before, must be new to the bleb.org XMLTV file - the use of "&" for "&" in the XML.

Is the ability to search for an upcoming show in the guide planned for an upcoiming release? Based on everything I've read, this and the ability to have separate video folders are the only two features I'd need that this software doesn't already have, in order to give it a permanent home on my system.

I'll be watching the forums daily - just wanted to get my 'wish list' items in if they're not already on the list.

Thanks - this application looks like it has lots of promise!

Hi,

The scheduled recordings work great.. i've used them now with no failures at all for several days.

I'm using the latest released version and I've noticed that when I go to playback a video file.. it plays fine until I hit skip a few times. This last time, if I just hit "skip" and then sat there.. it was fine.. but if I hit "skip skip skip" or something like that, without waiting.. it skipped and then basically locked the video/audio stream. The OSD seemed to continue however. And if I hit "Menu" I was able to get back to the menu on my PC Monitor (though my TV out stayed frozen on the video frame it died on)

I'm using a PVR-350 and I've tried this with VRM9 and Overlay modes.

Any ideas? or is this something known?

I've got :

Pace Sky Digital STB
A USBUIRT
Hauppage Silver Remote
Girder 3.3
Downloaded GBPVR.GML

Where in the GBPVR Commands group in the girder file do I teach the USBUIRT plugin the Sky STB IR codes to send on channel change events from GBPVR?

Sorry to be so thick :-(

Hello,

I've just discovered GBPVR (great program), I am using a ".exe" program to change channels. The trouble is I think the channel commands are being sent too quickly, I have introduced a delay using the parameters for the ".exe" program but I can't put a delay in between channel digits. Is there any way to do this?

Thanks,
Martin.

Where is the option in the config prog to enable/disable the PVR350 TV out... my installation seems to be convinced that I've selected pvr350 tv out mode and I can't see where to turn it off for the life of me....

Any chance that you're considering hardware MPEG-4/DivX encoding with the Plextor PX-M402U? I think that the first PVR with a decent UI that supports hardware based MPEG-4/DivX will become an instant favorite. Sure the PX-M402U is just one device and others will come - But look how many people have bought a PVR-250 just because someone decided to support it. Someone has to bite the bullet and add support for this device, even if just to be the first one out of the gates with hardware MPEG-4/DivX. "If you build it, they will come..."

I sent version 1.22 to sub and it should be available soon.  It appears pretty stable now, so I will clean up the code a little then put it here as well.

I think I will be starting on commmercial skip next and let someone with more ASP experience than me tackle the web interface

Sub,
It's time to give you a bit of feedback on v016 after having had some time to test it a bit. Although the general status is VERY good, there are some minor issues that I thought were good to mention to you:

Duration of recordings always shows 00 hours, even for longer recordings (already in v015, maybe even older versions)

Yellow button doesnt work for m3u playlists: I can't queue two albums.

Volume control doesnot work (music/video) although the release notes says they should work. Maybe I'm doing something wrong.

There is an inconsistency with the use of the pause button. It pauses video AND music playback. It resumes video playback, but music playback can only be resumed with the play button.

I can start wmp form gbpvr (custom task that also starts ir.exe and puts gbpvr in the background) to watch a dvd. However playing a dvd this way gave clicking sound when using vmr9 in gbpbr. With overlay there is no problem.

With pause/livetv the skip fwd/bwd doesn't work, though according to the release notes it should.

To conclude this post a tip:
In the current setup skipping forward and backward in video playback requires many buttonpresses (number of seconds, skip). So to skip 5 minutes (a commercial break) you first must calculate 5*60 =300, then press 3 0 0 skip.
Another strategy is to skip minutes. 5 minutes is then 5 skip.
To allow for smaller skips, parts of a minute should be preceded with a zero: so 30 seconds (=half a minute) means 0 5 skip.
I think this reduces the number of keypresses considerably and is also more intuitive.

Greetings,
MaBo

Hello,

I just tried to update from v0.14 to v0.16 (i thought it was time for an update, and see what's new, everything worked for me before, well, as far as everything can work if u use the PVR 350 tvout)
But now im stuck at configuring the capture sources, when i add one, and add the correct recording source, and EPG source. Then i close the program (by clicking twice on OK). And open it again, so that can update EPG, but when i open the program again, then the line in capture resources is gone :/. I guess im doing something wrong, cause i seem the only one with problems with this. I looked at the documentation, but that couldnt help me.
