No picture with PVR150

[Ryland]

I am a newbie to GBPVR but have been using BeyondTV under XP. I just installed Vista64 and then installed GBPVR which was able to scan the channels and when I select Live TV I hear the audio for the channel but do not see a picture. I have an Nvidia 7800GT as my video card with the latest drivers. Any ideas what I should be looking for?

I have attached the logs from the last config and playback session.

Thanks!

Update: Playing a DVD ends up with a black window and I don't hear anything but I probably wouldn't if it was on the dvd menu

Do you have an MPEG decoder installed?

Yeah, thats it. The logs indicate there is no MPEG2 decoder installed.

You might look here for most any codecs you may need:

Thanks guys! I knew posting the logs would get this solved quickly. I will install the necessary codecs and try again.

Does anybody know anything about this codec package? http://www.msfn.org/board/index.php?showtopic=66826

Not me, my main machine is still running W2K.... maybe some of the folks running VISTA have come across these...

I guess I will be the guinea pig then...

[Ryland]

and the guinea pig says...that that codec package doesn't actually seem to have an mpeg-2 codec that GBPVR recognized since nothing ended up in the Video Codec dropdown.

In config.xml the "known" codecs are listed in the tag <SupportedDecoders> Add the one from the package, and it should show up in the dropdown.
