Hi,
I recently added a PVR500 to my system which was equipped with just 1 pvr350. After some juggling I got it to work by switching the pvr350 to capture source #3 and the pvr500 to #1 and #2. Running xp sp3, cable, all analogue. v1.4.7, no plugins.
I just found out that my pvr500's recordings do not have any sound. At least, many recordings made the past days do not have sound, and when trying (timeshifting) I discovered the pvr350 is the only good one.
I am watching everything on hauppauge mvp's so the audio codec's on the computer should not be of any influence right?
I ran filtercheck, and checked logs for 'missing capture sources', a problem I read about. No help either. Cannot confirm unfortunately if audio recording ever worked. I do think so but I am not sure.
also tried the small utility to identify the capture source number, but that doesn't even see the pvr350, while that is the only one working correctly!
Any ideas what to do? Don't have much time tonight, but I am thinking to uninstall gbpvr, put wintv on it, check functioning, and then reinstalling gbpvr? But if there is a quick fix....
thanks in advance for any help!
Update: I got at least one of the pvr500 tuners to work under wintv7 software. It gives audio on all channels. Then, I added this tuner to GBPVR config, it did work! with audio. Stopped the recording, tried recording another channel: no sound.
So, once you change channels, it doesn't give sound anymore. This sounds like something I read about mythtv trouble with pvr500. But I don't know if I could use their solutions (if any) since that is Linux I think.
Too bad I have a double tuner card waiting to roll but it isn't picking up audio! the easiest of the both you would say....
any suggestions? thanks.
