finally got my TV Tuner card hooked up (Hauppauge 250) on my workstation at home. I mainly want to use it to record a few shows daily for my kids and a few for me and the wife.
I'm using the default software that comes from Hauppauge right now but am very interested in GB-PVR. Honestly what I'm using now works perfectly fine EXCEPT that I wish it wouldn't "pop-up" the actual app when recording the shows. There are options to mute it while recording and to close the app when done recording, but that still doesn't help for when somebody is on the PC and the recording kicks-in.
Does GB-PVR offer this option? To record behind the scenes if I tell it to? I don't want to be interrupted while working on the PC with a TV show recording, or for that matter confuse my 2 and 4yr olds if they are playing on the PC when it kicks in.
Thanks!
