Great.

yeah the card reader needed a com port swap, then I could swap it back (go figure) and everything clicked into place.

I can change channels (GBPVR didn't do this in timeshift mode, only in Live), but the tuner seems to only work in either DVB-S or DVB-T, which ever you start viewing with (HVR4000). I usually set TV1/2/3 etc to freeview for the better signal.

How does the tuner priority work, I remember in GBPVR it was recording top and viewing bottom, can I move tuners up/down?

I can definitely switch between DVB-S and DVB-T on my HVR-4000.

At the moment its not adjustable, but its top down in the devices list.

ok working here now, kept saying device unavailable last night but all good today.

I am getting random stutters with Acamd that I don't get with GBPVR and MDAPI.

Next time it happens, post the logs and I'll see if anything stands out.

Maybe try a different decoder.

SoftCam or Mpeg2 ? Using PDVD7.3 Decoders, last usable versions.

I meant video decoder.

What are you decrypting, Sky or TCL?

griffy · 2010-06-18, 04:40 AM

Sky

Was using NewCS but every now and then I got a dropped DCW, meaning 10 seconds of lost video and a time-line stuff up. Started using Acamd Card-reader and perfect ever since.
The glitches are not the 10 second thing, they seem really random, and Acamd is getting DCW in time as per normal.
Wouldn't have thought PDVD codecs would be a problem but I'll try some others.

Unfortunately I'm not really familar with the Sky side of things. I'm on TCL.

If you press Ctrl-LeftArrow after starting live tv (to drop out of live mode by skipping back a second or two), does it play any better?
