2250 tuner #1 failing

[oostertoaster]

Hi guys,
I've been using gbpvr for over a year now with no issues. I noticed last night that one of the shows I had recorded earlier in the week was nothing but a blue-screen and static. Before I dive into what I've found, let me explain my setup. I'm using a Hauppauge HVR-2250. I have 4 capture sources configured as follows:
-Digital Tuner #1 (2250 device #1)
-Digital Tuner #2 (2250 device #2)
-Analog Tuner #1 (2250 device #1)
-Analog Tuner #2 (2250 device #2)



I've been digging into it for the past hour or so, and this is what I've found:

1)Tuner #1 in my setup appears to not be working for analog or digital channels.
2)Tuner #2 appears to work for both.
3)Channel setup between the two tuners is identical (As far as I can tell)
4)When I attempt to watch live TV on a digitally mapped channel, gbpvr defaults to using analog tuner #1. I have no idea how this is happening, since that channel is not even configured as a possible channel on the analog tuners.

I've tried rescanning channels in case my cable company (Comcast) decided to remap something on me. This did not result in any changes in behavior. Tuner #1 still shows nothing but static, tuner #2 still functions correctly.

Does anyone have any ideas what could be going wrong? Like I said, I've tried rescanning the channels. FWIW, the digital channels display correctly in the scanning tool. The only issue appears to be when I try and record or watch liveTV from tuner #1 of my 2250.

I've zipped and attached (what I hope are) the relevant logs from one of my attempts to watch liveTV on tuner #1. If you guys need additional logs let me know and I'll upload that as well. Really appreciate the help here guys!

If you think its using a capture source for channel not enabled on that capture source, and you're on Vista/Win7, maybe try deleting the "c:\users\<your account>\appdata\local\virtual store\program files\devnz" directory, then try again.

I'm using XP, so would this still be an issue?

I'll try it anyway when I get home if you think it will help.

Anyone able to make any sense of the logs?

I suspect not the same issue, but I think I've seen some wayward config.xml or gbpvr.db3 files in the Windows area that produce a similar conflict. Try searching your hard drive for those two files and make sure you don't have any dupes.

I couldnt see any serious errors in your logs.

I'd try setting your audio renderer back to 'system default' though. You currently have it set to 'Realtek HD Audio output', which cause stalled playback (even from the very first frame).

Thanks for the insights guys, but I think I figured it out. Turns out when I renewed my Schedules Direct membership, my channel lineups got slightly messed up, and somehow channels got enabled on the incorrect tuners. I believe I've straightened it out.

I have had that blue screen recording many times. The cable company constanly remaps the channels. What a pain you have to go and reprogram your channels. I gave up and hooked my 2250 to off air. Much better picture and no foul ups.
