only a single green rectangle

[thobastian]

Hi !
I am new here and install gbpvr yesterday. Before gbpvr I deinstalled beyond tv 3.5. It was only a trial.
Installation works fine but after power on on my mediamvp I saw only a single green rectangle.

Everybody know the solution ?

Does your MVP work fine using the Hauppauge software?

I see only the green rectangle on tv via mvp, that is the problem.

I think, it´s a display problem....

The boxes breakdown as follows:

First - Checking Ethernet Connectivity
Second - Contacting DHCP Server
Third - Contacting MediaMVP Bootserver
Fourth - Loading Application
Fifth - Starting Application


Do you have a DHCP server running on the same subnet?

As colin also said, does it work fine with the Hauppauge software?

When booting (before the MVP talks to GB-PVR), the MVP normally shows a blue screen with the MVP logo and a series of initialization messages. If it doesn't get this far, it sounds like you've got a broken MVP.

oops, jorm bet me to the reply and includes a more extensive list of the bootup messages.

[thobastian]

No, the green rectangle is after the connection is ready.

So what you are saying is it goes through all the steps jorm has outlined then you are presented with a green triangle?

If yes, what software are you using on your PC to allow you to use the MVP (or in this case produce a green triangle)?

What version of the dongle.bin are you using?

Colin.

[thobastian]

ok, wait.
Now, i am install the newest mediamvp server software and install gbpvr again.
what happens...
Now, all works, but only the original software, not gbpvr...
But I see the gbpvr server window....

What is my bug? I know , the bug is behnd the montor ;-)

You need to stop the Hauppauge software before you can see the GB-PVR interface on your MVP. Click Start -> Programs -> Hauppauge MediaMVP -> Stop.
