I don't know what has happened, but I can't get TVOut anymore. I get an unhandled exception error on starting the app when I have enabled TVOut in configuration. The only thing I can think of is I installed WinDVD 4 (and have subsequently uninstalled it).
I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling GBPVR 4 twice but it still doesn't work (I've even deleted all the devnz folder tree before reinstalling)
I don't know why I didn't think of this before... Â I've attached a JPG giving the outline of the area that displays on my TV (Philips 32" widescreen) in 4:3 mode. Â I'll do ones for 14:9 and 16:9 modes as well when I get a chance.
Sub would be happy to know that I got a new video card that supports VMR9. Now I know what I've been missing! The on screen displays on the video player are nice!
This would also be great, although not sure how feasible... I've managed to get an encrypted DVD played on the TV Out but can't get the audio in sync (lags about 1/2 second) by decoding and re-encoding the DVD (using Intervideo decoders from WinDVD and the Sonic MPEG2 Encoder that comes with Sonic MyDVD). I'm sure there must be a less kludgy way of doing it..
This came to me when letting my 3yr old play with the remote control - the ability to "log on" to the application so that your settings, and more importantly only your files are available for viewing/listening. Could also provide restrictions for recording (e.g. by time of day, or by classification if one exists in xmltv) and own skin. Could use pin numbers to protect adult content etc. if required.
Again in the "low" category, but I think unique in the PVR world?
It would be great to be able to use the PVR permanently in the background, rather than being a startable program - assuming you are using the TV out feature of the 350.
I would like to be able to leave my PC on (in my study) and use it as a normal PC, while others use the TV out capabilities in the lounge.
Potential issues - would have to run as a service rather than as a user; would need to stop people from shutting the PC down (or at least warn them that someone was watching TV)
On the "low" side of priorities, as you can just minimise the application on the PC, but would be nice.
I'm a couple days late, and I'm sure some of what I say is just a repeat of what somebody else has already reported.
1. Using the overlay manager, I get errors using the music library. If I play a song, then stop it, then try to play another song I'll get errors. This does not happen when selecting VMR9.
2. Using the manual record. I get an error when scrolling through the channels once I get to one that does not include an icon.
I do not think manual record is working for me. The layout is nice, but when I setup my time/channel/ect... and click on the record button it brings me back to the main screen that shows no scheduled recordsings. I have not had much time to read posts to see if I am doing something wrong, so this may not be a bug.
Sorry, thats all I have right now. This is a busy time of year for me
When you hit the delete button (accidentally instead of play) it would be good to have the option of confirming deletion - perhaps configured on/off in the Config tool for those people who can hit the right button first time(unlike me!
I was watching the Simpsons on my PC monitor (I can't get my wife to agree to have cables trailing through the lounge yet! and the screensaver kicked in - is it possible to set the screensaver not to display while in playback mode? Also, I hit the keyboard within 2 seconds of the screensaver starting, and was returned to a black screen, but the soundtrack still working. I got back to the main screen by pressing home and went back to recordings and hit play for the Simpsons, and got the soundtrack from both, and the pictures from the first time playing.

Hey All,
it would be good if once a program has been scheduled for recording the start time and time could be adjusted. Would also be good if the file name for saving could be set as well. I encode a number of tv shows and I include either the episode title or number in the file name. Its just handy for putting them onto dvd in the correct order,
I would guess this could be possible via the manual record feature?
