Finished converting from gbpvr to npvr this afternoon... remarkably painless. Only one minor issue. On my single client (Atom230/Ion/Win7) I run npvr and xbmc concurrently, and switch between apps using a keyboard short cut programmed on my remote. (I don't run xbmc as a custom task because the wimpy processor just takes too long to launch and kill xbmc.) One app switch goes fine, but the second shows a black screen in npvr. Hitting any button on the remote then brings up npvr. It's very reproducible. Searching the forums found a similar problem, but this was because VNC was running (it's not). I've tried:
- every renderer (vmr7 to evr)
- full screen/not
- vsync/not
No biggie, just wondering if anyone else has seen this. I'll grab the logs, if anyone thinks it might be helpful.
On a positive note, both server and client were configured in an afternoon:
- A huge fistpump, when, after configuring the first tuner, I was asked if the second should be autoconfigured the same way!
- Comskip timing is perfect. As good as dvr-ms.
- Live TV works as well on the client, as on the server (with dvr-ms live TV was a no go)
The only "customizing" I did was to increase some of the font sizes for the default skin.
Kudos for a super job by sub!
