Hi, I would like to see the addition of more recording formats such as MPEG1, MPEG4, AVI/DIVX, and WMV. Just having another one would be nice to recording in another format that uses less space. Is this pisible to impliment? Thanks.
1) Importing channel names from the *.xml file and they are not coming into the Config program. I can manually add channels and have them show up, but can't import the *.xml file. Looking the file over quickly, it looks ok to me without really investigating. Any ideas?
2) Is there any forseeable reason why this software wouldn't work with Hauppage's WinTv GO? Are the cards/chipsets completely different? Am I missing something completely obvious?
I've been trying out different PVR software and from what I've seen this looks to be the easiest and most feature friendly that I've seen. Keep up the good work!
I was looking at an application on SourceForge called MediaPortal. This application has all the DVD stuff needed to do DVD out on the 350PVR and is written in C#.Net. Anyone else have any comments on this? I have not yet tried it, but if it works, couldn't it be incorporated into GB-PVR?
I set up a recording from the guide, recording started, I then wanted to watch it as it recorded, but LiveTV gives
"No Capture-Source was available..."
If I go to Recording and select play for the show, nothing happens.
Hi,
I have just installed gb-pvr and have my pvr250 set up which is fine and dandy. The issue I have is that I have UK listings with the normal 5 channels and a few extra freeview channels such as itv2, bbc3 etc which I can get through a set top box connected to the pvr 250, I would like to know if I can set gb pvr so the 1st 5 channels are picked up using the pvr 250 tuner and the other xmltv listing channels through the composite or svid, Is this possible?
I notice that gb-pvr is very slow on channel changing even though my pc specs are midrange (2ghz processor) yet on another 3rd party app with timeshift mode (always recording in the background) it takes less than a second to change channels, is this correct or do I have a configuration issue?
Thanks for taking the time to read this..
Hi My TV Guie doesn't seem to be updating. After I noticed that there were no more listings in the guide, I go into configuration and click on update epg but nothing seems to happen. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong. Thanks.
Hi all,
I tried to use this wonderfull software working with my
leadtek winfast 2000 deluxe. But on the tuner cards I get
only Hauppage PVR 250& 350 and vidOH... So what should I do?
Thanks
GB-PVR is exactly what I have been looking for to set up my computer as a Media Centre having tried other programs with varying results. (SageTV, MyHTPC, GotTV, and Snapstream)
Set-up
Installed in the Study
Home built P4 1.7GHz with 512 Mb RAM and 2 HDDs (1x40Gb, 1x80Gb)
WinTV 350 card
Windows XP Home Edition with all current upgrades.
Pace analogue cable set top box. (ntl are required to supply an analogue signal to the set top box)
Cable broadband.
Installed in the lounge (20ft away)
Sony Digital TV
S-VHS and audio leads from WinTV 350 to TV
WinTV IR on extension lead
In order to use the cable analogue signal with thw WinTV 350 in place of an antenna, a CATV splitter is installed in the cable feed to supply signal to the set top box and the LAN card for broadband internet.
Direct cable feed to WinTV 350.
Cable source channels 21, 24, 27, 31, 35
I initially had problems with setting up the Live TV signal and recording any channel. I eventually realised that I was using a direct cable feed into the WinTV 350 card. It worked perfectly OK with WinTV 2000 but gave a terrible picture and sound, if at all, with GB-PVR.
Antenna feed to WinTV 350.
Antenna source channels 41, 43, 45, 47, 49
All channels displayed perfectly.
Antenna feed from the coax out on the cable set top box.
Antenna source channel 52
All channels displayed perfectly but channel changing requires to be done on the set top box. This makes it impossible to record on different channels automatically.
Did a quick search and couldn't find this mentioned anywhere.
Has anyone thought about creating a "Picture Gallery" function. Would be nice to allow visitors to browse our photos with the remote in front of the TV.
I have a Leaktek 2000XP card, and currently use their PVR software to record with.
I have just installed GB-PVR and am having some difficulty getting any channels displayed - I think the cause may be down to the configuration details:- I can only select Hauppage PVR350 and Sigma Designs X Card from the Hardware de-coder drop-down. I would expect to be able to select Leadtek 2000XP card from this list - is this correct?
