due to a problem, i uninstalled and reinstalled GBPVR, but i've got problems now. (possibly a service issue?)
GBPVR.exe is constantly running in the background now, eating cpu cycles between 20 and 60%. My cursor is constantly flicking between the hourglass and the regular cursor as the cpu usage fluxuates with GBPVR.exe in the background. if i restart my computer, I get the same problem. In fact - it starts doing this even before I log in, and am sitting at the winxp logon screen.
Further, the desktop gbpvr.exe seems to be working, but if i try to start the MediaMVP server it does not start up, and when i restart the computer, it doesn't automatically restart, as i've set it up to do through the config file. I have both Hauppauge's MVPMedia and MVPMediasrc services set to manual and stopped.
when i go to the config file and try to make a change or two and then restart the service, it's a crapshoot whether the service will actually stop, or whether it will just hang there forever.
I've had GBPVR working great on my machine here for 4 months now, and the only difference i can see is that I uninstalled and reinstalled, and the version i reinstalled was GBPVR09413.msi . (the one i was using up until today was the previous version.) Can anyone give me a tip on what i should look at to see why the mediamvp service is not starting, and why the gbpvr.exe is always actively running, even when restarting? (my only guess here is that the gbpvr.exe is constantly trying to start the auto mediamvp server service but is not successful?...)
