Alright, next step...getting the capture card to work with GBPVR. I am going into the Configuration program (GBPVR's), going to "Capture Sources," Edit, Recording Source->Settings, and my Avermedia m179 is not listed as a "Capture Card Type." I tried picking m150, but that doesn't seem to work as I cannot watch Live TV in GBPVR (it says "Failed to communicate with the GBPVR Recording Service&quot. Any ideas? I thought the m179 was supported by default....

Looking at your latest release, the MVP server does not appear to work with the latest Hauppauge network protocols used. The latest internal beta 2.2.* simply reboots the MVP when any of the menu items are selected.

Now that I got this working i can hassle you with questions

On playing back over MediaMVP does it read the file directly or can ffdshow be used on it? The colour is dark from the mediaMVP, or maybe my recordings are too low, but it would be cool with we can do post processing?

If not I'll see if i can turn up the brightness on my recordings without them looking all washed out,

Cheers,
Colin.

Does anyone else have this problem: When after playing one file perfectly I stop it and go to start a second file and I just get a black screen. It looks like the file is playing but nothing shows up on the screen. I have to exit gb and restart the recording service. I'm using the 350pvr for my output and recording at the same time.

Other then that gb is wonderful!

Love it so far.  

Bug:  I selected a program and then 'record season'  The box changed color on the guide but nothing got scheduled.  Scheduling a single episode works fine.

Requests:

1) Display the channel number along with the station identifier in the guide.  Something like:

8
WABC

Maybe make the number a slightly larger font?? (if there is room)

2) Display the description and episode info along with the program name up in the guide grid.  Save you from selecting the entry just to see that information.

3) When selecting a entry in the grid, make the entire grid square a 'hot spot' instead of just the text.

4) Make the number of rows to display before repeating the column headings configurable.

5) Add a option to display the channel logo's on the guide.

I'd have at it myself, but my only VS .NET box is down at the moment.

I've got an OEM Leadtek PVR2000 (no FM tuner) and haven't been able to get past the "failed to communicate with recording service" issue.

I beleive that the problem is that the OEM card is actually based on the nVidia MCE TV / DVxplore MPEG-2 chipset from LSI/C-Cube, and not the Conexant Blackbird like the retail version is.

I gather that this means it is not currently supported?

When you have selected a XML-file in configuration and push the update button, does the data in the xml file get storde som where else(like in recording service)? Or does GBPVR look in the xml-file every time you go in to the guide? The reason why I ask is that I have a problem whit recording, it records 1 hour late all the time, in the XML file I got it all fixt, so I just need to know if I am going to have to push the update button every time to get a change in the EPG?

Hi all,

I have an Airlink+ card that has a Conexant CX23883 chipset. I want know if this card is Blackbird complient and if not if there is any way to get it supported.

Thanks
Jim

p.s. Sub you did an awesome job on this software.

hi
i'm having problems with the TV part.
i have the XTLTV data loaded, but when i try and watch, none of my channels are tuned, i've tried all the possible channels from 1-92, (Cable selected on the tuner card 250PVR , which works fine through wintv2000)

it's only GB-PVR that can't tune to the card. all other programs can pick up the channels fine.

otherwise a very nice product

thanks,

i'm running w2k3 server with 1gb memory, ati all-in-wonder graphics card. GB-PVR version 1.7i

Wanted to try the new web server, enabled it in config , but just get a "page can not be displayed" error, tried changing the port as well.

Anyone have luck with this, suggestions?
