Hi
I´ve got a plain Win2k SP4 install on my machine. The Hauppauge Software for my MVP and PVR150 was also installed and works as expected.
With this configuration i can play each video (MPEG/DivX/XViD), both local and from network.
But i wanted more, or in other words i wanted the features of GB-PVR. I´ve installed GB-PVR and after 3 days with little trouble and many help from your search function i´ve got the software running. Anyhow the Live-TV function runs very well.
But with playing videos i ran in one problem after another. I´ve tried to track them down, but with nearly no success.
Until now, i can play some local MPEG files like the ones i´ve recorded with the PVR150. But if i select a MPEG video from my landiskdrive (mapped as t:\), which works with MVPMedia software, i´ve got this result:
After that the MVP is seeking for the server and reconnects.
Another problem i´ve found after several tries, the GB-PVR doesn´t like umlauts (äöüÃ):
This is no real problem, because these files can be renamed quickly, but i´m already posting...
Last but not least, with GB-PVR i can play no .avi video, local or network makes no difference. Some videos starts playing, but after maybe 10sec the MVP is kicked back to the selection screen. Others turn the screen black and the MVP reboots. I´ve reinstalled the pc several times, with differend codecs and differnd versions of ffdshow. Also i´ve changed the dongle.bin which comes with GB-PVR, against some of the Hauppauge packages (stable/beta/out of date). My last try was to start the MVPSrv process while GB-PVR ist running, but with no success...
Do you have any ideas which solves my problems with playing video? I don´t want to use two tools, if one of them should be capable of doing both jobs (Live-TV and video playback).
I hope my english is not to bad and some of my problems are understandable.
Greetings

p.s. one more to go...
With one .avi file i´ve got another error, but i don´t knew where it cames from:
No, i have not installed any commercial search tools of any kind.
And it doesn´t play like all of them.
