As a test, I setup a season record.  As it happens it's a show that is on a LOT.  I went and cancelled the season recording entry, but unfortunately I had to go through and cancel ALL of the shows the season recording scheduled (my hand is still numb  ). Â
With a tivo, when you cancel a season recording (season pass in tivo speak) it asks you if you want to cancel all scheduled recordings created by this season pass.
I bought an avermedia m150 -- replacement of m179, and need help setting it up. How do I configure GBPVR to use this card? I only see pvr-250 and Xcard in the config dropdown box.
Tried the record season option from the tv guide. Â It sat for a few seconds after I selected 'rec season' then went back to the guide. Â The show in the guide did not change color and when I selected the show again I got the same dialog asking if i want to record, rec season etc, so apparently the rec season did not work. Â The log shows:
4/27/2004 1:41:02 PM.643 VERBOSE [2] getValue() loading new key/value into cache: /settings/NetRadioBufferSize
4/27/2004 1:41:02 PM.643 VERBOSE [2] getValue: /settings/NetRadioBufferSize : 96000
4/27/2004 1:41:02 PM.643 INFO [2] NetRadio buffer size is: 96000
Which is weird since I was nowhere near the net radio screen.
I went in and scheduled a recording via the tv guide. Then selected the same show and canceled and got a error dialog. Here is what was in the log:
4/27/2004 1:36:38 PM.096 ERROR [2] Error: msg=0x100 (WM_KEYDOWN) hwnd=0x360646 wparam=0xd lparam=0x1c0001 result=0x0 : Object reference not set to an instance of an object. : at ah.a(bo A_0)

Is anyone else having trouble seeing the thumbnails of files created by their pvr250. When I put the view in explorer to thumbnail I only get the icon I get when the view is set to Tiles or Icons.
Please help this has been troubling me since I got my PVR.
I figured this out a long time ago and it is probly know by some of you programmers out there. I was able to add a few lines to my Irremote.ini file in the c:\windows directory which allows me to open the frontend with the touch of a button ( the green power button ).
Just copy and paste this into a new text Document. Backup your old file by renaming it to something like Irremote.ini.bak. Then just copy your file into the C:\windows directory. Then restart Hauppauge IR in taskbar.

; Real buttons on a remote should always get a real button name
; Note: some button "names" can only be generated by certain remotes
; Also, note that seemingly similar buttons may have unique names on different remotes
; This is to allow treating them differently based on the remote, and the
; "paradigm" of how they are used. For example; on old remotes there is a seperate TV
; button, but no GRNPOWER button. So, on old remotes we treat TV as on/off, where on PVR
; remote we use the GoMenu function (or RED as On), and the GRNPOWER as Off.

I am a new to GBPVR and ran into the following problem:
When I want to watch a video, recording or live tv, I get a black screen telling me:
"Video is playing back using TV out
Press 'Home' to return to menu"
Well, I'd like to see somthing on my monitor and not only on the TV screen. I haven't hooked a TV to my system, yet - but I believe what GBPVR is telling me
I remeber having seen an option on enabling TV out - but don't remember where... And yes, in WinTV2000 it works.
Net Radio is really slick, I wonder if there's a way to add new radio stations or perhaps delete ones that crash or go down (pirate radio was down the other day, for example)...
Anyway my thought is what if there were some sort of screen saver or visualizations for net radio, after so many minutes? H*ll even a screen blank would be fine. My TV sitting at practically the same screen for such a long period of time (because net radio is cool! probably isn't really good for it. What does everyone else think?
Browsing the config.xml file, I noticed "UsePVR350QuickMode" and I was just curious to what this was?
I've read the posts about screen position and size, and have a problem. Â First off, my tv is NTSC and I'm using the PVR350 and this happens using overlay, vmr 7 and 9. Â I wanted to max out the resolution to achieve a better picture at 720x540. Â While the liveTV and playback of videos is better, the GBPVR menu positions are either to high, low, left, and right. Â I can fix this by lowering the screen resolution but at the cost of picture quality. Â Is there something I am doing wrong with the config.xml file. Â Here is a link to my config.xml file.
