I think choppy a/v is typical problem with the PVR500 on a 64 bit machine that has more than 4GB. You can use msconfig to limit memory to under 4GB (ie 4095) to confirm.

You're amazing, Martin! I just looked up drivers for the PVR500 and was wondering how critical the "less than 4gigs of ram" specification was. Click on Driver install only tab at: http://www.hauppage.com/site/support/sup...vr150.html

In your original post you refer to Live TV. How is the playback of recordings?

Thanks for all of the help guys! I reloaded gbpvr left everything default and live tv and recordings work no problem. I just don't get it.
I will try the 4gig limiting M has suggested with NextPVR and let you know the results. As of right now though, GBPVR is up and fully running.....family is happy. I can play with the other stuff later. I will update. Again, thanks for all of the suggestions and help!
With gbpvr recordings and live feed working....new issue though....yellow subtitles show on the bottom of the screen. I can't find in the config where to shut them off. All of the CC buttons I see are not toggled on. Any ideas?

Any ideas on the yellow subtitles gents?
Also, obviously my old cards are the problem with NPVR. If i want to stick with analog incoming cable, what cards would you guys recommend?

RE yellow subtitles: If your display is a TV, have you looked into the possibility that a TV setting is causing Closed Captions or subtitles to be displayed? I suppose there is some possibility that changing MPEG2 video decoders might make the subtitles go away. If you're convinced that the problem is with GB-PVR, then perhaps start a thread on the GB-PVR Support (legacy) forum if you don't soon get an answer here.
RE NPVR/analog tuners: You should be reluctant to invest in more analog hardware because your cable provider will go all-digital one of these days, as mine did in December. Did you try Martin's suggestion in post #11? |
