Enhanced Web Admin

[UncleJohnsBand]

I had already the ask option as default in both. The file is saved in a temp directory prior to opening, even if I ask for it to be opened in an application directly. This is a behaviour that changed a good while back if I remember correctly. Previously at least IE did not cache the file but opened it directly. ...as I remember. I could be wrong...

Are you trying to use Windows Media or VLC.....Windows Media will always do a full download....VLC will start to play the download right away.

SQLite ...k.

This is the process that is occuring...

You select a show(s) to record....
You submit the request
The GBPVR API's are called to schedule each request
When all requests have been processed a list of scheduled shows is built
The show(s) that you selected to record are searched in this list
If the show is not found you get the error message

On occasion I have seen the error message when in fact the show scheduled....but this is also a rare instance with SQLite.

Does this happen often? Is it when you are doing many selections, just a few, just one or does it happen randomly?

Don't share ports....have one port for EWA (you mentioned 81) and set a different port for the stream itself. Make sure to open up this port on both your PC firewall and to forward the port on your router to your GBPVR PC.

I didn't realize this needed to be a different port than EWA (when I looked at the wiki doc I didn't realize the default port was different than the GBPVR default port, particularly since I don't use either for my applications).

I switched ports to 8080 and got a little further (VLC opened, but VLC reported a port open error on 8080). I read some VLC documentation earlier in the day that mentioned this as a default HTTP port for VLC. With this in mind, I then switched the streamer port to 82 (and made adjustments for this to the firewall and router). That solved the problem. So, for others out there who have experienced similar problems, in a nutshell:

1) Use a dedicated port for EWA.
2) Use a dedicated port for VLC (streamer port).
3) Do not use port 8080 (VLC default HTTP).
4) Make sure the router forwards all ports to the server.
5) Make sure the firewall(s) on the server are opened for these ports.

As for power it does take some to stream.....try setting the size of the video to the smallest and the bitrate to the lowest.....and then work your way forward till it no longer works......

So far, WMP @ 256 (320x213) gives the best quality for me.

I have great audio and for the most part the video is good with the exception of some missed frames and "choppiness". Decent, but not great quality. I am curious how much better performance a faster processor would give me, but all in all this is OK. I'm not really going to be using this feature very much, I just like to see all the bells and whistles. Kudo's to all the developers!

Glad to here you got things working.....I updated the wiki to note that if you change the default stream port from the 7648 setting you should not use 8080.

On my machine the best that I can stream over the internet is VLC (extrernal viewer) @ 256 480x320 WMV/MP3/ASF.

I can do any setting when streaming on the local network.

Of course my server specs are fairly good (see signature).

This is the process that is occuring... If the show is not found you get the error message.

The show definitely exists. It is also the only one with "Quotes" ... ???

On occasion I have seen the error message when in fact the show scheduled....but this is also a rare instance with SQLite.

The show definitely does not schedule.

Does this happen often? Is it when you are doing many selections, just a few, just one or does it happen randomly?

Well originally I chose quite a big list. I scheduled all of them apart from the one that said failed. Then I searched that show again, on the word lambs. Same behaviour. I checked the recordings scheduled already, There is actually a show already scheduled for around the same time, however I would expect a "conflict" flag not a failed recording one?

Hey guys

Is it possible to have a default file served from the gbpvr directory?

For example if I go to http://IP:PORT/gbpvr/ - it automatically redirect me to http://IP:PORT/gbpvr/index.aspx?

If not can I add it to the wishlist?

cheers

PS: Yes, I am that lazy!

Edit: I see this can be done using ApacheCLI - but native support would be great

Drop these in your web directory....if you do not like ending up in the guide you can change default.aspx.cs to redirect you to whichever page you want to be your default.......

Nice. It works. Now all we need is some good shows to record
Great work UJB!

I absolutely cannot get Webadmin to work. I've done a bunch of searches and tried everything I've found -- nothing. I've tried both a fresh install and the Enhanced Webadmin plugin. My router has the port forwarded, there's no software firewall up, yet every time I try to go to the address I get a "page cannot be displayed" error. I get this error from any machine I try. I don't have any logs in the .Net folder (with gbpvrpublic.dll). Would they be anywhere else? It's really driving me crazy. Thanks in advance for your help.
