Most of the information in this Wikii section is based on material compiled from the forum (Sub), and private e-mails from the Kayak4ever, who set up the Wiki Page.

Please feel free to edit, and provide fixes and enhancements.

[SIZE=3]O.K - Now, Lets try these Wiki Directions on one of my Systems[/SIZE]
Tonight, I followed the procedure in this document to update my main HTPC system to GBPVR 1.1.5.

• I did all of the backups
  
• I did not have to use any of the backups
  
• All of my recordings and other GBPVR settings were preserved

Everything in the standard GBPVR structure seems have upgraded perfectly, and is working, The only exception is an add on, my FireFly RF Remote.

• My Firefly Remote has stopped working
  
• This is probably due to Windows. Windows has almost certainly assigned a new Program Identifier to GBPVR or PVRX2.
  
• This is standard Widows crap problem. I am not sure if the is any long term solution
  
• It is irritating but generally not hard to resolve.

If you Use a Firefly Remote (I think this is a small subset of GBPVR users):

• There is a Firefly Remote Profile Instruction in the Wiki
  
• This XML profile is likely now not compatible with the new release.
  
• I will will try work out a fix/upgrade for this Firefly Remote XML profile to support the latest GBPVR release
  
• I will then update this Wiki section to fix the problem.
  
• May take a couple of days, (depending on how much I miss the Skip function of the Firefly Remote)

Otherwise, the upgrade worked perfectly.

I am actually writing this post on my PC, while watching a recorded GBPVR playback on the connected TV.
