Wow the PVR150 support is much improved. Not even sage supports it yet. I bet you worry them.

Thanks for the great program.

sub well done this is by far the best release of gbpvr, my 350 is working like a dream, pause tv no longer stuffs audio sync and well its a dream, im using gbpvr to watch tv now, not just record tv. just wondering (curious more than anything) what happens when a tv show ends and another one begins whilst watching live tv (it hangs for a second) does it delete the temp mpg file you can use to rewind/pause etc tv and begin a new one?

Has any one had any problems with using MVP with this release.   When selecting TV Guide and all other menus I get the message "Object reference is not set to an instance of an object".

Any ideas?

Problem solved: It is a problem with High blue visiblity skin, not sure what yet but will look later

[yorrick]

I have a few skins that I have customized that now produce the "object reference is not set to an instance of an object' error. I was able to fix video library and music library by copying some of the plain blue folder into the altered folders, but I can not figure out where I would look to fix the object reference for the interface that appears when I want to schedule a season recording. Is there any sort of change log specific to the skinning?

Sorry, I meant to post following when I posted the release announcement. The skin changes consist of:

main menu\skin.xml (panels can now specify the level of transparency)

Does this release have your PVR-350 &quot;fix&quot; you developed as well, as was discussed in the support forum? Didn't see that mentioned in the &quot;what's new&quot; so I'm curious. Thanks.

[sub]

Yes, its included.

As part of rewriting the LiveTV support I removed GB-PVR's dependency on the Hauppauge WinTV Reader Filter, and replaced it with my own equivalent. It wasn't intended as a fix, so I've not listed it separately. For consistency, I also use the this new reader for playback of pre-recorded.

I'm also not inclined to claim anything is a &quot;fix&quot; for the PVR350, because then people will expect it to work, but the plain truth is that the drivers have problems and I'm not going to be able to change that.

Sub,
Kickass work ^_^ The new release is awesome

Hi,
I want to  show information about the DVD, which is currently playing, on a Display. For this, I need an event which shows that a DVD is running. Can you add an event such as &quot;CurrentDVDTrack&quot;?
At first it would suffice to know that a DVD is running.

I ran into a small problem while installing:


Retry did nothing so I choose Ignore and everything seems to be working fine (the file is in the gbpvr dir), but I don't know if it could be a problem...

Anyway, it looks great! the new panels for the main menu is really nice. Would it be posible to set the update time for them? My 1GHz Via can't really keep up with them maybe a setting that only shows the next recording instead of flashing through the recordings?
