Love GBPVR... it is incredibly powerful, but I have a couple of questions concering the guide (I'm using Zap2It in America).
When I record a show, the default is 1 minute pre-padding and 2 minutes post-padding. However, if I am recording 2 shows at 8 and 2 more at 9 on different channels, I'm obviously going to run into a problem.
First of all, I would expect the recordings to be 1 hour and 3 minutes long... yet they seem to only be between 58 and 59 minutes long and I miss the end of my show. Furthermore, because the padding runs into the next set recording, there is a conflict for a few minutes where it is trying to record 4 things. i'm not exactly sure what the result was, but when I tried to record 2 back to back 1 hour shows, all with 1 minute pre and 2 minutes post padding, I ended up with 2 files that were 58-59 minutes long (the early shows) where the end was cut off, and the later 2 shows did not record at all.
Would setting the pre- and post- padding to 0 take care of this? Is there any other workaround?
