Hi Big_Kev

Been using the TV Sever version of your program with great success, but the sever computer has suffered a power supply failure!! So I've been setting up a standalone box to run Mediaportal, so I downloaded the version you have here v15 and tried running it ... I got all the various violation errors that have been described in this thread and so followed the advice and downloaded v8and did a clean install and viola it worked no errors.

I noticed something which might be helpful in trying to debug the issue's with the later versions. In v15 when you choose the stand alone option, the first of the TV engine options is selected as well, that is the TV Server & Client on the same machine option, this is not the case in v8 which made me think that the newer versions were trying to connect to an SQL server even when you had chosen the Standalone Mediaportal option hence the errors.

Also while I've got your program working when I go into the Guide in MP it is showing the same data across all channels and the data is a mix of different channels. I haven't been able to sort this one out yet, any ideas on where to look?

Hmmm ... just read my post!! Spelling error ... it was the server computer not the sever computer!!!
