Ok, so I've got GB-PVR 1.4.7 installed on my Windows XP x64 SP2 box. I have two HD Homerun external tuners (though not relevant). It works as I expected. The system running GB-PVR is in my basement so I typically access it through remote desktop. The best I can tell PVRX2 doesn't work over remote desktop. Using overlay I get a blank screen (as expected). Using either VMR9 option the application won't start with the "Sorry, this system does not support the required VMR9 video render". EVR doesn't work either.
I know GB-PVR has a web server for managing recordings, but it doesn't seem to work either. I have the box checked in the config on the misc2 tab set to the default port (7647), but when I go to http://localhost:7647/gbpvr/guide.aspx in either Firefox or IE6.0 I get an "unable to connect" / "Cannot find server or DNS Error". I've also tried changing the port to something else with the same results
Possible relevant facts:
- The firewall on the PC is turned off.
- I'm already using IIS on port 80 for hosting something else
My questions:
- Is there some incompatibility between my setup and the web server application? (like it doesn't work with Win XP x64, or uses IIS, etc)
- Is there a work around for using PVRX2 over remote desktop?
- Is there another way to control it remotely?
I'm about ready to pull my hair out. I've tried everything I can think of.
Thanks!
