First lay me say that I am very happy with GBPVR. It is extremely reliable and the recording service can run for weeks without reboot.
The problem I describe below is therefore not very high on my problem list (compared to having a faster computer, or more free time
) but its somewhat annoying and it requires attention I easily forget resulting in a lower WAF after reboot.
Like some other users I expercience the "no sound after reboot" problem.
As soon as either wintv2k or tuningsassistant is run the sounds appears and stays until the next reboot.
One user has posted how to run winTV2k from the commandline to restore the sound. I do not have wintv2k on the GBPVR machine and I hate to install garbage on this important server.
I have tried to run tuningassistant from autoit to only set the parameters for country, card and cable, start scanning and immidiately stop scanning because the sound appears as soon as scanning start (no need to find a channel)
However, autoit is not very reliable during booting so a unattanded reboot of the GBPVR server can still result in nosound.
Is it possible to either make the initial settings of tuningassistent configurable so I do not have to rely on autoit to drill down the combobox. Or have a look at what settings autoassistant does that is not done by both the gbpvrrecordinservice and gbpvr itself when used for liveTV such that you may be able to find a solution for this bug?
If I am asking too much, tell me and I will shut up forever on this small subject
