Just found GB-PVR, makes me wonder how I missed it. I am buying a epia MII600 mobo and pvr350 card and was browsing for some nice software and look where I ended up!!!
I am a big fan of XLOBBY, which I imagine many of you might never of heard of. Look at http://www.xlobby.com, looks very similar to GB-PVR, but
XLOBBY is great (for me) because of its pocket pc support (if you own one), the music/jukebox features, pictures section and internet browser, but its crap for the pvr section unlike GB-PVR which excels in this.
Question 1,
Could I have GB-PVR pvr's function only, is it possible to delete the other sections that work but don't have the same level of functionality yet like xlobby? Sounds cruel and harsh I know.
Question 2,
What EPG software is best and how oftern do you need to connect to internet to update?
I think that you have made a great PVR solution and i would like to know when the Xcard ODS support will be availabe in term of week ? I currently use JovePlayer but the PVR functions are very limited right now and their next major release is only due in april.
Big Congratulations on a Brilliant Achievement! Thanks!
I've been using gbpvr for a couple of days now, and I'm hooked. My set-up allows for recorded tv programmes, etc, to be relayed via the MediaMVP to the family television. Gb-pvr is already leaps and bounds beyond Hauppauge's efforts - bravo.
Unfortunately, I do not possess a WinTV PVR card - all the programmes on my PC arrive from Freeview via either a Nebula DigiTv or HP Nova-t card.
If live/paused tv support for the (nova) card via the MVP could be implemented I would be a very happy bunny.
OK, I can't for the life of me get SHSPVR .011 to work. I was away for two weeks, so I watched .010 go by, and when I got home I saw .011 just came out. I installed over .09 and had the "can't connect to service..... " problem. I thought it might be residual settings, so I uninstalled and deleted the dir on c:\ for the program, restarted, etc......... I then reinstalled and set every thing up using DirectRecord. I can get the interface in windows or on the MVP, that's no problem. It's when I try to launch a show from the guide or livetv, I get the "can't establish connection with the service....." error.
I even downloaded WinTVcap from sourceforge and instaled it. I then pointed the config for GBPVR to the executable. Now when I launch livetv I get the following

By popular demand I've uploaded a version which should address the blocky font with the MVP client. You can download it from http://www.gbpvr.com/Setup012a.exe
From the release notes:
- Fixed blocky font appearance on MVP
- Fixed the MVPOffsetY which wasn't working in the last release.
- Now gracefully handling the MVP disconnect/reconnect/poweroff/poweron etc.
I've installed 2.8 just to be sure

Are there any plans to add support for thee Adaptec Videoh! USB card? (2210) It seems like nobody has added support for this capture device. It does a great job with MyDVD, but I would like to use it with other software that I can set a recording time up.
does this qbpvr support directv dss tuning capability like snapstream does using hard wiring to pc-serial com port and to the directv receiver? if so, i would love to use this instead of snapstream because they haven't support the hauppage mediaMVP. thanks.
