I´ve installed tve3... it works, but i can´t change channel

I get a message "Unable to start timeshifting... Unknown error occured"

What can be wrong?

I have got the exact same problem. I cannot even change the channels using the manual part of the server GUI.

KoktGrus · 2007-03-25, 21:57

ok... tried to restart the service? i´ll try that later when i get home =)

br0sk · 2007-03-25, 22:33

I have restarted the service. It doesn't make any difference.

KoktGrus · 2007-03-25, 22:56

since that i restarted the service, i've been able to change channel... It´s really slow and i can´t use any lan-clients, just the single-seat-plugin =(

br0sk · 2007-03-26, 00:30

I just installed the latest tv server and I can now change channels again. I have also got my laptop changin channels running on a wireless connection now(channel changes ~3 sec).
I had lots of problems with Mediaportal crashing all the time on the laptop before. Today I changed the decoder to Sonic and I have not had any crash since.

Are you running MySQL or MsSQL?
I hade similar kind of problem since TV server svn13444 (approx.). Could not run clients through LAN, only single seat worked.
I was running MySQL, but when I changed to MsSQL it worked great!? Don't know why, but it's a fact

br0sk · 2007-03-26, 12:36

I am running MsSql. Could the problem be that you have not opened port 3306 in the firewall. It is needed to connect to the MySql server.

tompa · 2007-03-26, 12:43

Should be open, but I will check that tonight. Tnx!
The thing that's strange though, is if I go back to earlier svn it works ok.

I have the exact same problem, went back to SVN 13558 and it works but only single-seat. Never SVN's all give the same problem Unable to start timeshifting , an unknown error occured... Logs dont say anything useful...
