I am very new to the world of PVR and have chosen to use GBPVR since it supports my Hauppauge 350 card with the nice quality built in video out that I wanted.
QUESTION: Can I use the GBPVR interface to play my older recorded Mpegs?...or will it only play video that I have recorded using the GBPVR? I have tried to play some older musicvideos downloaded as torrents in MPEG format, but nothing happens? Is there some way to work around this and get them to play using my 350card with video out?
QUESTION 2 ( I guess this is the real dumb one) Can I ever use the GB interfaced to play video and movies recorded in other formats...avi from torrents for example? What do I need to do to convert and make them accessible through the interface?
THANKS IN ADVANCE TO ANYONE WHO TAKES THE TIME TO ANSWER QUESTIONS LIKE MINE.
