Hi guys, new poster and user of GBPVR. From what I've seen so far, it's a great piece of software and an improvement over the Win TV bundled with my HVR-1100. I recently encoutered a pretty serious problem, however.
Using the TV guide, set a program to record. It seemed to start correctly and recorded for the correct period of time. About halfway through, i tried to watch in real-time - and got a black screen. I then left well alone until the recording had finished, only to find absolutely nothing. No recorded file in my output directory, and nothing in the "ready" section of GBPVR.
I wonder if this is related to the intermittent tuning problem I'm getting. When i first go to watch Live TV, things start up no problem. However, if i go back to the main menu in the software, then return to Live TV, I often get a 'no signal' message. Skipping a few channels ahead until signal returns, then back to the original - previously blank - channels sorts things.
Any ideas as to what this problem could be? Thanks in advance...
