Hauppauge HD PVR on May 1

[thisisnotadrill]

I am also waiting for a fix, beta, or update for that. my HD-PVR seems to be working correctly now so I do want to get to using GB-PVR full time.

[wtg]

Code:

HKLM\Software\Hauppauge\IR

I have:
BlasterI2CType=0
IRBlasterPort=0
IRBlasterPortCount=1
IRBlasterUsePort=1
PollRate=c8

All are Hexadecimal DWORD values. I'm gessing that more than one device would change the IRBlasterPortCount value and the IRBlasterUsePort value determines which one is used. As I said, I only have one device so I can't test it.

Mine are set identically, despite having a PVR-150 and 250. Probably part of the problem. The HKLM\Software\Hauppauge\hcwTVWnd\ node has a number of blaster-related entries besides just the AllowBlaster setting, but I'm still not sure how they should be set.

I'm sure I just need to run the Hauppauge registry clear utility and start over - I just dread doing it since it's time consuming going through all the device installs, making sure they work, and noting the registry changes so that if (when) things do screw up I can back out the changes without having to start over again.

Frustrating especially since I've had problems in the past with getting their IR software installed and configured when I had more than one PVR installed. Not sure why I thought it would be any different now that they have a new device. How hard can it be to recognize and deal with their own friggin' hardware and just let you pick which blaster to make active?

Oh well - if it was easy it wouldn't impress the ladies.

sub, whenever I try to watch Live TV from the device, I get no sound. I checked the graph and the audio pin is created but there is no stream mapped to it.

What do you have the AAC audio decoder set to in the config app? Can you reproduce the problem and post the pvrx2.exe.log and pvrx2.exe-native.log files?

I tried several in the past. I'm not sure which one I left it on but I'll double check a bit later.

Attached the logs using the ArcSoft Audio Decoder. This seems to be the pertinent info:

Do you mean routing the audio on the crossbar filter? If so, which pin did you round to the audio output?

Do you get audio correctly on recording? If so, it might be worth comparing these lines in the PVRX2.exe-native.log and GBPVRRecordingService.exe-native.log:

Sorry, just saw this post. The routing on the crossbar filter is done and is correct. If I view the PID Mappings on the MPEG Demultiplexer, the audio PID is not mapped, only the video. I've attached a screenshot. I can manually map the audio and run the graph and it works. On the above logs, I had edited the analoghd.ini to specify the SPDIF input, but the result is the same on auto and also line in.

Give this patch a go and let me know.

[whurlston]

That did it. TYVM.

that worked for me as well after i installed the arcsoft software to get the the arcsoft aac decoder
