bigd Wrote:ok some progress but not there yet. I would say a lot of progress I would also hate to see you give up at this point when you have got so far. Now you have got this close I would suggest putting your log files in a .zip file and posting those. Someone may spot what has happened for you not having this working. Some info about the log files can be found here cheers steeb

Hello again!
I have attached my nPVR log to this post and it looks like it is looking for an operating system which is Windows 2000 SP 3or later. I have the "later" Win XP Svc. Pk 3. Not too sure what to make of it. The error is shown during the first third of the report with "Start LIVE TV". Any and all feedback much appreciated! Thanks again.

is it possible that my drivers are too old. they are dated 2003! ati does have an update but i wondered if that might really help the issue. i didn't want to mess with a driver update on this unless i had to as the last time i did (years ago) it caused some issues resulting in a reinstall of the old drivers and software.
Thank you.

The strange message you got may very well be caused by outdated drivers. You should definitly update the drivers. "I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy"

ok i will try the driver update today and report back to you. keep your fingers and toes crossed!
"while i have the hood up", any other suggestions...anyone? Thank you

Possibly, 'while the hood is up' Depends on how much of a fan you are for Windows Updates and whether you have them on automatic? If not may be worth doing a custom scan from Windows Update site to see if you could do with updating anything.

Did huge windows xp update. no luck with nPVR
did an ATI software driver update. no joy with nPVR the ATI software update killed my tv stream. no juice had to do system restore to get ATI working again but still no nPVR i may install win 7 on a separate drive and try there any ideads? bigd Wrote:i may install win 7 on a separate drive and try there If you mean any ideas on trying with Windows 7 then no, try it As for XP, it would seem that 'generally' people may appear to have a slightly better experience with NextPVR and Windows 7 than XP but personally AFAIR I have not read of anyone NOT getting NextPVR working with XP. My sense of smell tells me that this really is not a NextPVR problem you have here but something rotten with your XP set up. It may well be this is just the ATI drivers causing the issue, but I am by any means an expert :eek: what is the 'TV stream' that has been killed by the ATI software update? Presumably these are now AMD (ATI) drivers you are using? Catalyst drivers? Your best bet may well be to try a Windows 7 installation, once you get NextPVR working you will, I promise, really like it |
