I'd like to report some problems with NPVR 1.5.31:
1. DVD playback - with some DVDs I can't access DVD menu with mouse or keyboard, the only functional key is Esc, so I can't play some DVD with NPVR ( for example initial menu with language selection )
2. TV aspect ratio - this problem is also in another thread.
Monitor: 1366x768 16:9
TV: analog , 4:3
Tuner: Hauppauge HVR-2200
When I select FILL mode, black rectangles stays at the top and bottom of screen
When I select Remove Letterbox mode, whole picture is moved to the top of screen and at the bottom of screen is big green rectantle
3. FM tuner with Hauppauge hvr-2200
Time-to time ( for example once a 5-15 seconds ) playing stops for about 0,1 - 0,3 seconds and then continues . Something like when I listen to internet stream radio with slow internet.
Maybe it is related to signal quality, because of stations with worse signal do it more significantly, than stations with better signal. But the problem is present also on radio stations with very good signal.
tested computer: AMD Athlon X2 235e , 4GB ram, Windows XP SP3
4. Channel list
Is it functional ? ILive tv -> right click -> channels
Nothing is done ...
5. Live preview mode & TV buffer settings
Will be this functionality present also with NPVR ? It is very usefull when watching TV signal through external set-top-box and connection between STB and PC is only through Composite cable.
Timeshift causes, when user changes channel on STB , he can see it at screen of PVR soft several seconds later ...
Also some settings about TV buffer would be nice ( max and min size of TV buffer, LiveTV pre-delay time )
