TV3 Blaster not showing in Plugins

raf · 2008-03-22, 01:14

This would appear to be problem in the TV log:

2008-03-22 11:00:18.578561 [1]: System.InvalidCastException: Unable to cast object of type 'TvEngine.TV3BlasterPlugin' to type 'TvEngine.ITvServerPlugin'.
at SetupTv.PluginLoader.LoadPlugin(String strFile)

using latest test version 5

Thanks

hmm, that looks bad.

What version of TV Server are you using? Is it old? Or is it really new?

The SVN I compiled against is about a week old.

Brand new vista install with latest TV server SVN

ok, I'll update my tv server and see what happens ... there may have been a change to the tv server plugin interface ...

Thanks,

Hmm, doesn't look like there has been any changes ... I'll compile a latest SVN tv server and then compile IR Server Suite against that for the next preview version... if that doesn't fix it for you then I'll look into it further.

Cheers,

and-81 - I saw a posting on another plugin with similar problems. Although you have tested it with latest SVN, it just seem too much of a coincidence?

See post number 741 and 742 here.

(I am wondering if this "permalink" to the other thread will work. Seems like it is referencing the page number? I think that the number of posts per page is customizable. I am set on 40 if I remember correctly. Can anyone with different setting let me know if it works or not?)

Actually, I've just found the problem ... it seems there was a small change made in the TV Server SVN. I must admit, if I had made the change myself I probably wouldn't have realised it might have a flow-on effect for plugins.

It will be fixed in my next release of the IR Server Suite, but of course the next release will require SVN 18123 or higher as a result.

Cheers,

Can confirm it works ok on SVN 17811 from 8/3

raf:

Thanks for the info...

The next preview version will require a newer SVN when it comes out. It's actually being held up today because I can't get the latest TV Server SVN to install correctly at the moment ...

Cheers,
