So I finally got my PVR up and running though I am having problems with playing live TV, the weird thing is that when it's recording and you hit play it works fine.

A little background of my system:
Mobo: Intel DG35EC website http://www.intel.com/products/desktop/mo...erview.htm
RAM: 2GB DDR2 800Mhz
TV Tuner: Hauppauge WintTV PVR250
Video Card: NVIDIA GeForce 8400
Software: GBPVR (latest version)

So after following the instructions on the GBPVR setup I get to the point to where I can pick a decoder but all I see is the Hauppauge, Default System, and MPEG Decoder. Neither of them seem to work and when I try to watch a show that is playing I get nothing. The screen goes black and after 2 seconds all I see is the TV guide. Strangely when I record a show and click on Play it works fine.

Attached is a copy of my log file.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Try enabling live preview mode in the config app, and make sure the live tv buffer directory specified exists.

If these dont help, then zip and attach the logs and I'll take a look.

Hey Sub,

Thank you so much for the help, that was it I did not have a folder set for the live tv buffer. Saves me a huge amount of headaches.

Again thanks a lot!
