PC Crashes when it searches and finds a channel!!

[nick_kay]

Morning All,

Having been using GBPVR for some time with great success, I was surprised to encounter this problem a few weeks ago.

As I haven't used the PVR for sometime, I only noticed it not working following an upgrade to 1.0.16. But, having reverted back to the previous revision, the fault was the same, so I assume it is 'something else' I have installed or changed that is the cause? Who knows! help please....

In Brief...

I updated the EPG to use XML TV and then re-mapped the channels to the EPG within GBPVR Config. This ran until channel 20 or so before a windows Error was displayed and closed the application. Repeating this a few times gave mixed results. Sometimes despite the error the mapping would continue finding channels but would not save the settings and on closing the error would loose the information. More extreme, the PC freezes.

Having thought it was the hardware Nove T USB 2, I have bought a second in an effort to eliminate the fault. This has not been successful.

I have attached the log files. Perhaps you can help. Is there a conflict on my pc or it this a fault of GBPVR?

Your guidance would be much appreciated.

More extreme, the PC freezes.

With behaviour like, it makes me think something is wrong with the drivers.

GB-PVR just runs as a user mode app, and wouldnt have the ability to freeze the PC even if it wanted to. The device drivers for you capture card run in kernel mode though and would have no problem freezing the PC.

OK, something to look into. The problem is it runs under WinTV fine. Only under GBPVR does it have this problem.

Thanks for the note.
