Hello
Just bought a NOVA-t card from Hauppauge. I hated the included software (didn't work at all to start with) so I decided to install GBPVR. That was this morning. I've now got it working and it's brilliant. I thought I would share how this was done -
Most of this information has been taken off of other posts here but I thought it would be a good idea to have it all in one place.
Follow install instructions located at http://www.hauppauge.co.uk/board/showthread.php?t=4344
The CD that was shipped with my Nova card is marked as version 1.3. I believe this software is out of date. Just follow the install instructions on the above URL. If you have installed the software from the included CD remember to uninstall using the HWClear.exe file found on it.
Reboot computer.
Download the mpgmux.ax file. This can be found on Google, I am not sure of the licencing restrictions on this so I do not wish to provide a direct link. Drop this into c:\windows\system32\ folder
From the Start button, select run and type the following
regsvr32 c:\windows\system32\mpgmux.ax
Install GBPVR.
Open the file c:\Program Files\devnz\gbpvr\config.xml in notepad. Change the text that reads
<BDAScanType>1</BDAScanType> to
<BDAScanType>2</BDAScanType>
Launch the config program for GBPVR. Select the Capture Sources Tab.
Click the Add button
Select the recording source as BDA recording plugin.
I use the Bleb source for TV channel listings. Download the Bleb listings
Click on Map digital channels to EPG channels button.
Make sure that channel changer is set to No channel changer required.
After channels are maped click the OK button.
After this GBPVR should work.
Caveat - I have to admit I don't really know what I'm talking about, this is just what worked for me.
