VideoArchive and 97.7

[soccerdad]

The dw20.exe issue is not just Windows Defender. I googled around some more and it seems that .NET 2.0 is including the link to the Dr. Watson error reporting. 1.1 did not do this. To keep the dw20.exe files from spawning and freezing the system with 100% CPU, you can disable it by:
Open Control Panel/System
Goto Advanced tab
Click Error Reporting button
Disable error reporting
Disable critical error notifications

I got the above message off a .NET developer site so it looks like other developers are having the issue.

I still have it tell me I have a problem, it just doesn't turn into a resource hog to send a list to Billy. I am sure I still have some sort of problem (on the system) but hopefully this will keep things running. I have not seen anything on my logs besides what I already posted. It does not happen all the time, but it still crashes every now and then.

I play around with the user tab today in VA. The configuration part went smoothly on MVP and PC where each user only see videos as configure. Cursor moves are OK on left and right screen together with play video; however, as soon as I hit back/exit button, MVP freezes and CPU on PC went to maximum and have to power off the PC.

Is there any log I can take a look to see what VA doing? Thanks.

Have not been able to get 3.0 to work with 97.7...even if it is the only plugin in the plugin folder...GBPVR starts fine with all of my plugins (default Blue skin)...the minute I add VideoArchive 3.0 some serious CPU processing begin to occur in the background..Task Manager saids it's GBPVR.exe...I leave it on for hours..still cannot start GBPVR..The ArchiveDB-PC log indicate same errors with every scanned movie file...have not converted to SQLite database yet...should I???

I do notice that my "video archive.mdb" file located in the GBPVR folder is 185 megs (have over 500 movies) and I have another "video archive.mdb" file in the Jeff folder that is only 1.25 megs..I removed the 1.25 meg file...same problem...I remove the 185 meg file so it can recreate a new one...still same problem...Disabled the error reporting as mentioned above...nada:confused:

GBPVRkid: My first install of the updated VA did not go well so I uninstalled it and commonGBPVRutilities. I actually had to delete it manually. Then I reinstalled VA and most of the problems went away. Make sure all items installed correctly by looking in the VAinstall log. When the system locks up, look to see if you are also having dw20.exe programs starting. If so, you may want to disable it. (read the above messages)

None else seems to have this problem so I'm guessing its a setting I have not done. Recentlyupgraded to new GB-PVR all well, and installed latest Video ARchive seems to run well also but...

where have all my dvd entries gone? Well all but a few. I have the files still, and there still in the video archive.mdb but do not display on the screen like normal.

any ideas? Thanks in advance:confused:

If you send me a PM I can give you and email address wher you can send your log files and database and I can try ot sort it out.

I'm a verry new user with GBPVR. Last weekend i installed (for the first time) v0.97.7 with .net 2.0 and Videoarchive. I had to install a GBPVR.EXE update (the update in topic "mvp mpeg play problem") and a new (beta)) dongel.bin file because I was not able to play a mpeg file and my MVP was rebooting. Till now everything looks like to be stable.

I did also read the v097.7 survival guide and there was also a update for videoarchive

Questions:

Do I have to install that update for videoarchive if my system reboots? and another question

How do i convert a ISO file to mpeg? I see only the option to convert a dvd from the dvd drive

And can I get the dutch subtitels in the converted DVD?

If I can help to do some testing please let me know!!!!!

[Jeff]

I don't know how to convert subtitiles, so the plug-in does not do this yet. If someone knows of a utility that can do so, let me know and I can try to add support for it. As to how to convert .ISO files, you will need to mount them with something like Daemon tools, and then the plug-in will see it as a regualr DVD and you can go from there.

Jeff,

Have you have a chance to look into the user tab configuration caused the MVP and PC unusable? Everything is right except the back/exit caused hight CPU usage and MVP frozen.

Thanks.
