Hi all-
I used GBPVR for some time, then mainboard issues put the PVR on a back burner.
I'm setting this back up now on a box with a new mainboard, and a Hauppauge 1600, with NPVR.
WinTV 7 works great- IR blaster fine, recordings fine, video image great.
NPVR though just shows a black screen for live TV.
I was using WinTV7.0.x from the install CD. I tried upgrading to WinTV 7.2.x (latest on their site) and I have the drivers in place (installer step 1) but WinTV itself I could not update to 7.2 as I don't have the CD handy. WinTV still works fine though.
I put on the AC3filter1.62B, no change.
My video source is from set-top box to analog TV-in on this card. Do I need the "softpvr" utilities mentioned on the wiki perhaps? I expected not, since I had a WinTV install already.
I'll see if I can dig up that CD (I hate that) but do not at the moment think is is involved. In the meantime, I have seen via search that there are a couple posts about this issue but no fixes that I could see.
log directory and config file attached. This is under WinXP. NPVR: I had the August 2.6 release in place, then added the Oct release with the extra patches when I noticed this issue, without a change
Thanks for thoughts!
