How do I play HDTV files in GBPVR

[johnharb]

Hi,
I have the latest version of GBPVR but on trying to play a HD file the screen remains blank I can play them with Media player 9 and media player classic but not GBPVR does anyone have any ideas on what to do??
Thanks for a great Prog.

There should be no problem with playback files like this. How many Displays are you using? Do you have two or more?

I have my normal 19" LG monitor plus tv out to a Philips 28" TV but it won't play on either.
Thanks johnharb

Do you have an NVIDIA Card? If so, then make your TV, where i think GB-PVR is running by you, to the "Primary Display", not the CRT

(Desktop -> Rightclick -> Advanced (i think))

Nope still won't play, plays just about everything else I throw at it but not HDTV won't even play sound!!!

What video decoder do you have choosen in the config app?

What decoder is WMP using when you play HD videos on it? (Choose File-properties while video is playing.)

[johnharb]

WM is using the Cyberlink decoder this is V7 and GBPVR is using the intervideo decoders

Try switching to Cyberlink and see if GBPVR plays them. I had issues with HDTV playback until I decided to use the Nvidia decoder with my Nvidia card. All issues disppeared with little CPU usage during playback.

fraid not, it looked promising as I thought it was going to play but after a few secs nothing just black screen

Where did you get the HDTV files? What format are they?
