Hello,

I've been having some USB problems so I recently made the following change in config.xml

<RecycleUSBUIRT>true</RecycleUSBUIRT>

(instead of the default false)

I had to make this change to hopefully fix the problems i'm having with the USB devices locking up. I'm running Vista 32bit.

Now, I think i've solved the problem when using PVRX2. The program changes channels correctly through the USBUIRT to my satellite box. However, when I stream using EWA it doens't seem to actually send out an IR signal. I see this in the log

2008-01-30 20:04:50.869 VERBOSE [5] Changing to channel (GBPVR.Backend.Common.USBUIRTTunerController): 135
2008-01-30 20:04:50.869 VERBOSE [5] Changing channels with USB-UIRT
2008-01-30 20:04:50.890 VERBOSE [5] Sending: 1
2008-01-30 20:04:51.090 VERBOSE [5] Sending: 3
2008-01-30 20:04:51.290 VERBOSE [5] Sending: 5
2008-01-30 20:04:51.490 VERBOSE [5] Sending ENTER

But when I look at the actual USBUIRT it doesn't send the signal. Perhaps EWA needs to send the command to open the USBUIRT?

Thanks for any help!

Thyis was originallly posted in the EWA support forum so I moved it to here which is where I belive it belongs.

Thanks. Smile

OK, I have some more information.

When I change the channel on the server machine using PVRX2, it changes fine.

pvrx2.exe.log

2008-01-31 08:22:19.186 VERBOSE [1] Changing channels with USB-UIRT
2008-01-31 08:22:19.186 VERBOSE [1] Sending: 1
2008-01-31 08:22:19.791 VERBOSE [1] Sending: 0
2008-01-31 08:22:20.342 VERBOSE [1] Sending: 0
2008-01-31 08:22:20.894 VERBOSE [1] Sending ENTER

Now, if I try from a client machine or from the EWA I get the following

GBPVRRecordingService.exe-native.log

2008-01-31 08:21:03.625 VERBOSE USBUIRTHelper::SendKey failed. Handle is invalid.
2008-01-31 08:21:03.825 VERBOSE USBUIRTHelper::SendKey failed. Handle is invalid.
2008-01-31 08:21:04.025 VERBOSE USBUIRTHelper::SendKey failed. Handle is invalid.
2008-01-31 08:21:04.225 VERBOSE USBUIRTHelper::SendKey failed. Handle is invalid.

Can anyone explain why this happens?

I'm running Vista 32Bit on the server.

P.S. all these logs are from the server machine

P.P.S. I also set the <RecycleUSBUIRT> back to false, no difference

I'd have to look at the code to work out what was happening, but unfortunately I'm out of the country for the next couple of weeks, so It'll have to wait until I'm home.

Thanks Sub. I can wait. The weirdest thing is that its unpredictable. It was working before for at least a few channel changes, then it would stop and it'd have to restart the recording service. Now it doesn't seem to work at all! Very bizarre.

I'm going to have a go with the .exe channel changer and see if I can get it working reliably through that.

Well I changed to the .exe changer and wrote a batch file, this seems to work locally, client, and EWA. Here is the batch for anyone else with the same problem

---------------------------------------------
set chan=%2
set first=%chan:~0,1%
set second=%chan:~1,1%
set third=%chan:~2,1%
set fourth=%chan:~3,1%
c:\batch\uutx.exe -fc:\batch\%1 %first% > c:\temp\chan.log
c:\batch\uutx.exe -fc:\batch\%1 %second% >> c:\temp\chan.log
c:\batch\uutx.exe -fc:\batch\%1 %third% >> c:\temp\chan.log
c:\batch\uutx.exe -fc:\batch\%1 %fourth% >> c:\temp\chan.log
---------------------------------------------

Then in the config I pass

c:\batch\BATCHFILENAME.bat irdef.txt {channel}

UUTX is available from the USBUIRT support department.

Thanks

Sub, the symptoms and error message this fellow posted saying "USBUIRTHelper::SendKey failed. Handle is invalid." is almost identical to those in my post below, except replace "streaming" with using the MVP, which I believe is very similar.

If you get a chance to look at either of our posts / logs, I'd be very grateful. I have <RecycleUSBUIRT>true</RecycleUSBUIRT> set in config.xml.
