Beginner questions regarding LiveTV MVP configuration

[Morg]

Hi,

I am quite new to gbpvr (just set it up yesterday). Watching my library works fine but I am still confused about what I should add as a capture source to make LiveTV work.

My setup is like this: I have an MVP and a PVR250, but the PVR is not connected to the tv (I only want to use the encoder chip - it's something about the signal quality in my house). How should my capture source look like?

Somehow I can't find any information about this in the wiki. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I probably shouldn't be answering with my level of experience, but I hate to see a question languish. Maybe it'll get the ball rolling.

Maybe I'm missing something, but you'd set the capture source up the same whether watching on the PC or elsewhere. Just create a new capture source, name it what you want, then set up the source to match yours.

It's in the wiki under configuration --> define source

Cheers

I am a bit embarrassed but somehow I had the misconception that the MVP would also bring the tv signal to my machine... User error!

I've fixed it, thank you for trying to answer

You should absolutely answer questions. That's what keeps this forum going.

No need to feel embarrassed, however, you must now consider it your job to answer all similar questions
