Comcast Conversion Problems....

[FumbDuck]

Hey guys! i think i might have the same issue. I have GBPVR 1.3.11 installed. WinXP Pro SP3.

I have Comcast cable and the WinTV application that was bundled with my Hauppauge works great for watching TV. I plug my comcast cable directly into Hauppauge. I cant seem to get GBPVR to work though. In the capture sources tab i have set the recording source as HVR-1950 QAM and i am using schedulesdirect for my epg updates. GBPVR crashes every now and then when i try to use the map channels button.

I found my channels here.

Weird side note. The Hauppauge WinTV app shows channels in the 2000 range. (example: tv guide channel is on 2085)\

I used to use this thing perfectly on another system (also comcast) before the big digital switch and now im a little lost. :p

Any help would be appreciated. thanks in advance!

I just went fishing in the config.exe.log and found this error....

Does this offer any explanation? BGD

LowEntropy: zip and post both the config and config-native logs... just posting a few lines probably won't help

FumbDuck: probably best to start a new thread; your problems may or may not be similar. hijacking LowEntropy's thread will just confuse things.

[LowEntropy]

Here are the zipped log files....BGD

[sub]

Delete the cache files from "C:\Program Files\Devnz\GBPVR\BDA\" then try scanning again.

[LowEntropy]

I deleted the file named "SCAN-1.cache" from that directory and tried the scan again and got the same error message...BGD

[sub]

Can you post your logs again, and also you scan cache file?

[LowEntropy]

Here are the files....the cache looks empty...BGD

[sub]

Sorry, you'll need to try getting those logs again. Those config logs dont show a scan attempt.
