Hi All - I'm trying to resolve my issue on "black screens" instead of video, menus work (or worked). I ended up installing the hauppauge mvp software that proved the device worked, but that seemed to add to my problems. Then I saw this quote in an old post in the MVP forum:
4) To resolve the black screens: install WinTV2000 version 4.7 (build 23045) http://www.hauppauge.com/pages/suppo...rt_pvr150.html
Is there any truth to this? - I never installed the winTV2000 app initially, so maybe there is a file there that is needed? However, it doesn't seem to have sense so I wanted to ask before I added extra code to my system - that usually makes things worse for me!
My status so far... I've UNinstalled that Haup MVP software trying to get rid of a hang up at "loading application", remember that I didn't have thid before installing that code. ~ I was able to get the GBPVR menu screens - but not any more - now it hangs forever at "loading application."
I see that my router has a setting that says dhcp server enabled and I see the gbpvr host system IP in the router. So I think I've ruled out the dhcp problem. I've also turned off my xp firewall and let my mvp sit for a few minutes without power to get a reset.
I'm presuming that my system is trying to get or load the doongle (never changed the lastest on set up in GB software) but it isn't successfully loading.
any ideas? man - I can feel my blood pressure going up!
