Hi

I am getting an error when trying to use livetv(pvr250 card). cannot connect to record service etc etc... the log looks like this:

Hi,

I would like to use GB-PVR as a service using PVR-350 hardware only so another user can use same computer to browse internet or play games. I've succesfully installed and runned it as service with Firedaemon, but when it's a service I have no way to access the controls.

Is there any way Hauppauge IR-controller can have access to a service? It seems it works only if the GB-PVR window is visible and focused.

Another thing, why there is not Finland in direct record options? I've had lots of problems to tune channels... (Wintv and other PVR-software works fine)

Just got this running and have to say it's great. Compared to Showshifter and beyond tv it's got so much more promise.

Missing three things I'd really like:

1. Full screen toggle. While GBPVR is running. Having to exit and change it in the config is a little long winded

2. Skip, Previous buttons for Music player for when I'm using a mouse or keyboard

3. Better naming of recorded files (Eastenders_4268 vs. Eastenders_220104_2000_2100). That way I know what I've recorded and when.

And a minor... Not resetting TV guide to "now" after setting a program to record

Hi,

I have a asus pundit with a pvr 350 in it. The SPDIF output is optical, but my TV only has a coaxial input. Before I spend $70 buying a converter from optical to coaxial, can someone tell me:

If I play a DVD/DivX throught the PVR using the composite-out in the PVR, the sound goes through the SPDIF ? or only through the Composite-out ?
or in another way: is there any way to output digital audio while using the hardware acceleration provided by the PVR?


Hope you understand my prob, and thanks for any help.

I'm trying to update the EPG with an XMLTV file but it just hangs in GB-PVR after the "this may take some time" warning dialogue. This data works quite happily with myHTPC.

The XML file contains all the channels from the Supreme Telewest cable package for the next 4 days with a file size of 5 to 6 Mb.

I successful updated the EPG with the 5 UK terrestrial channels using the link in the quick start guide.

Is there a limitation on size of data that can be imported?

Many thanks

Hi,
provide help inside GBPVR.

something like this:
- When a user presses a particular key on the remote, a window pops up with a image of a remote, and some explanation of what each button accomplishes in that particular window.

I've just uploaded the latest beta. It can be downloaded from http://www.gbpvr.com/Setup010.exe.

There has been a lot of changes in this release. From the change log:

2003-1-19 v0.10
- Overhaul of underlying playback code for videos and music. Now reusing graphs correctly.
- Moved from using the Hauppauge File Reader filter to my own reader.
- Implemented OSD for Overlay Mixer. Colours are opaque as Overlay Mixer doesn't perform alpha blending. A bit ugly - should be you last choice. Go with VMR9 unless you have a good reason.
- Some changes to the 'resume' handling. Was occasionally pausing the video, but not making the message visible on the screen (looked like a hang until you pressed a key). Now seems to work ok, other than painting the background blue when the first resume message is shown. This doesn't seem to occur after the first time. Not sure why...
- Corrected playback using Hauppauge Intervideo NonCSS mpeg decoder.
- Now auto detecting the channel number from the xmltv file. Not always possible as file format is different for different regions. Many regions dont have channel numbers.
- On the manual recordings screen, you can now enter any time at all for start and end time.
- Automatically importing EPG at 3:00am if the machine is running. Will also execute UpdateEPG.bat from gbpvr directory if it exists (prior to update). You can also still use the 'Update EPG' button to do it manually. Time may be configurable in later release.
- Some improvements to LiveTV stability. Worlds slowest channel change - so be patient it probably hasn't hung. Some mpeg decoders perform channel change faster than others. The speed will improve in future release. I'm also looking at providing a non buffered LiveTV for those that live to channel surf. This would mean a quick channel change, but no pause ability.
- Custom tasks now working. PVR350 will show fake desktop (if you're running 32bit color desktop), but you wouldnt want to do too much with it... Dont even think about playing video or dvds through this fake desktop - its way too slow.
- Now correctly playing to the end of files with PVR350. Was previously skipping the last few secconds.
- Fixed a memory leak with PVR350 tv out functionality.
- Fixed a deployment issue with the USB-UIRT plugin.

You'll need to uninstall any existing GB-PVR installation before installing this release.

I only found gbpvr yesterday, but already have it mostly working. My one problem is that I want to use USB-UIRT to change channels on my StarChoice satellite receiver & can't figure out what I need to do. If I go to Edit Recording Source & try to select USB-UIRT plugin I get this unhandled exception. Any ideas what to try next?

See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just in time (JIT) debugging, the config file for this
application or machine (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the machine
rather than being handled by this dialog.

My wishlist (after my crash issue is resloved of course   ) in addtion to some of the others listed here:

1.  ATI RW support - the H ain't bad but...
2.  Start/run in the systray - 350 tv-out mode only

Thx.
