Unable to watch TV after hibernate

WideView · 2008-08-17, 13:34

After 20 minutes idle MediaPortal puts the HTPC into hibernate mode. That is working fine.
However when I start the system again, I am not able to watch TV anymore. The error when I go to Live TV then is:

Unable to start timeshifting
Unknown error occured

To watch TV I have to restart the TVService or completely reboot the HTPC. Then watching TV is fine again until the next hibernate.

Enabling the option "Restart MediaPortal on resume" makes no difference.
Video Mixing Renderer 9 instead of Enhanced Video Renderer makes no difference. (this was a solution in this topic: Error watching tv after standby)
A startup delay of 60 seconds makes no difference.
The "reinitialize service on wakeup" option is enabled.
The "wait until TV server has started" option is enabled.
Earlier SVN-revisions have the same issue.

The log is based on the following actions:

Fully HTPC reboot with MediaPortal (starting up fine).
Watching TV (is working fine).
Auto hibernate after 5 minutes of idle.
HTPC and MediaPortal coming up from hibernate.
Watching TV (not able to watch TV now).

Hope that someone can help me with a solution for this.

Thanks!

Thank you very much, disabled that option and now it is doing fine after hibernation!

Reinitialise, does not tend to apply to firewire connections
