No GUI

[Bloodaxe]

I have installed GBPVR in the past and the old UI would function but not the new UI. My computer specs meet the min. requirements. Pentium D 2.66Ghz. 1 GB ram, XP Pro SP3, .Net 1.1, 2.0, 3.0, vcredist_x86.zip installed before installing GB-PVR v1.2.13.

Video capture via Vbox Cat's Eye 164e w/ latest drivers installed. (Worked under trial of SageTV)

When running the MUX checker I get the following error:
NO MULTIPLEXER FILTERS WHERE FOUND ON YOUR MACHINE.

GB-PVR will not function correctly unless you have WinXP SP1 or higher, which has a built-in DVR-MS mux filter. :confused:

When I try to start PVRX2 I get the outline of the Window which can be moved but nothing is painted in the window. The background will move inside the window like a snapshot. I'm not sure where to go from here.

Wrt the "No GUI", your videocard possibly doesn't support vmr9, you could try setting the videorenderer to "overlay", in config-playback-tab. Maybe you can update your videodrivers.
Wrt the "Vbox Cat's Eye 164e", it seems to me that the card doesn't have a hardware mpeg-encoder, so the analogue side of it won't be supported by gbpvr. Maybe the digital side of it might work, I don't know.

What video card do you have?

I'll have to check on the video card. Probably a low end AGP card because the tuner is in the one PCIe slot on the MOBO.

Windows Device Manager says it is a 16MB ATI Rage 128 Ultra.

DScaler 4.1.15 works for the analog signal. Looks like it is using Direct Show (DShow)

Thats most likely why you get no UI. I suspect that videocard isnt adequate for the Direct3D requirements of GB-PVR's UI.
