Can't Watch Live TV!!!

[trimplay]

Hello, I'm kind of a newbe to GBPVR and need a little help. I'm trying to get my WinTV HVR-950 Tv Tuner to work with GBPVR and have made it halfway. I have config the tuner with gbpvr and scan the channels and have alot of HD channels added that its found. But when I open GBPVR and click Live TV it says it can't found a TV Tuner. When I click Record Stats it shows my WinTV tuner Sleeping. Can someone please tell me what I need to do to get live tv with it working? :confused:

First try enabling live preview mode in the config app, and making sure the live tv buffer directory in the config app points to a valid directory. If these dont work, then reproduce the problem and zip and attach the logs.

Thank you, That did the trick!!! Also will the remote that come with the WinTV-HVR-950 USB stick work with gbpvr or do I need to get another kind? Also I seem only to get the HD channels and not the lower channels like 3 with gbpvr.

I dont know what remote it comes with, but it should do assuming you've installed the Hauppauge IR application, and have the remote type set to 'Hauppauge' in the config app, and have clicked the 'Fix Hauppauge remote settings' button.

Are you talking about analog channels? This device isnt usable for analog in GB-PVR. It lacks the required hardware MPEG2 encoder.
