Did you install a new SVN of the TV-engine? Last week I had a same of problem, because the schema (database name) has been changed from tvlibrary to mptvdbrc1. The old one still exists, but doesn't programmas anymore. Maybe you have the same problem. If you use MySQL as the TV Engine database, you can check this by running the MySQL Query Browser and login (connect) as user root / MediaPortal, but don't select a default schema. Ignore the warning. Then you see on the right side pane all the available schemas. If there is that mptvdbrc1, you can double click on it else choose tvlibrary. Then the query browser shows all the tables within this schema. Just double click again on, for example, setting and execute it (cntrl enter). The query browser shows a table with all the settings of the tv server. On the bottom you can see if the XMLTV has updated the guide.

Thanks for your answer P.Niem!

I am using 0.2.3.0 stable atm... this is bc i stumbled upon a weird problem when using 1.0 (gui lags like hell on a core 2 duo 2ghz with 2 gig ram and a graphics card with 348mb ram) But i guess that answers my question? MP web is looking for the db in the wrong place even if i point it at the right database?

Sooo, if we installed the SVN from last week, the web interface will not pull the data from the DB? I know the connection is OK thanks to the built-in test button on the web interface config.

Stored Connection: left blank (default)
Server Host: localhost (default)
Port: 3306 (default)
Username: root
Password: MediaPortal (THIS IS CASE SENSITIVE)
at Detail none of the boxes are checked (default)

Just hit the OK button and you should be able to connect. If you can't connect you get the error message and the possibility to use Ping. If you hit Ping you should see the replies of the Ping.

If this all went wrong you have a problem with your database and you have to resolve this problem first before going further with the Web Interface installation. In this case it has nothing to do with the Web interface.

then its my database that has a problem as i get an error message. strange thing is that i have not modified anything so it should work. ill try a reinstall this weekend.

thanks !!

Hi all,
I have installed 0.2.0.6 beta. The EPG does not automatically update, and when I refresh the EPG from the webserver it displays the following message

EPG Failed with the following error:[AnyDAC][Phys][MySQL][LIBMYSQL] Column 'notify' cannot be null

can anyone help?

I think the best you do is to install the web interface on your first computer (TV-engine) In that case you have to choose localhost in the database tab of the web interface configuration (page 6 of the manual) Note that on this tab is a database login test button. What happens when you hit that button?

Any other computer can be used to access the web interface via your LAN or WAN. then you have to fill in the ip address (or hostname) of your first computer in the browser like this: http://192.1.1.33:8080. Note that you have to grant the web interface to be accessed through your firewalls. if you want to access the web interface from outside your house, the ip-address is translated by your adsl-modem in the NAT table.

I'm happy to see that people like it, it's got few flaws with few dialogs but I haven't had time to tune it.

Anyway, you can find pic of layout here:

and zip file is here:
Self Contained Web Server / Interface

When I'll have some spare time I'll check Kev's updates and try to tune that layout bit more.

One issu I have is that when In look at my recordings I see the header then there is a lot of empty space and then comes the recordings table.

Thx again

today, i switched from hauppauge pvr 150mce and GBPVR to floppydtv cable and mediaportal tv server with tv guide.
I really like it already .

Is it possible to do a multi-select record after search for keyword? Example: did a search on 'sport'
now i want to record 6 recordings at once (if the time windows is possible). at this moment i have to do
a search 6 times to record all i want...

any ideas?

[olson]

oh and something else: i want to create a startup page for my browser but:

http://10.0.0.202:8080/getkeyword does not get me to this page but takes me to the main menu
