Basic GB-PVR setup help needed

[Dave_M]

Hi, I just installed the latest gbpvr and I'm having some problems with the basic set up. Things I change in the config, such as changing the skin from slick to blue, and editing the menu and plugins section, do not take effect when I run PVRX2. The settings I changed are remembered but every time PVRX2 is run, it just looks like the default set up.

I'm running vista which is fully up to date as far as I know. I tried restarting the system just incase that would fix it, but no luck. I attached the log files too. Hope someone can help with this bizarre problem!

In Vista the program you used to edit config.xml must be run as administrator. You probably need to delete all the files in

\Users\username\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\devnz\GBPVR

Excellent! That fixed it, thanks.


BTW, is it possible for gbpvr to launch an external program to open files? For example, to play a mkv file by opening the file in media player classic.

I know gbpvr should be fine on it's own when everything is set up properly, but it's nice to use media player classic home cinema sometimes, since it supports shaders and is easy to set up DXVA playback, etc.

ok I don't really need to get it to open with external program any more, I'm getting it set up very nice. But one thing that's annoying me, in the config on the plugins tab, I unticked "Exit" from the list, but when PVRX2 is run, it's still there. Is there any way to get rid of it?

This is a bug on my to-do list.
