[Announce] MPTvClient V1.2.5 (20.12.2007) II

[blehmbo]

Thanks for the reply level20peon. I noticed that channel number in MP Tv Server = ChannelID in MPTvClient after a fresh scan, but after updating the channel numbers in the MP Tv Server using the "Renumber channels by SID" option, shouldnt the channel ID in MPTvClient also be updated to the SID? Thanks again. I hope I stated my question clearly.

[level20peon]

Let's say there are two channels. Channel number one has SID 9000, channel number two has SID 8000. So channel number one is listed before channel number two regardless of its higher SID (because it appeared first in a channelscan). If you now "renumber channels by SID" channel previously known as channel two becomes channel one due to it's lower SID (it counts from 1-n) and channel previously known as channel one becomes channel two. This is because the channel numbers are always counting from 1-n, not otherwhise (not 8000-9000). I am dizzy now.

I noticed two bugs in the connection test of MP TV Client V 1.3.1 That were also present in version 1.2.5.

The MP TV Client directs the connection test for port 1433 MS SQL (TCP) to the TV server instead of the SQL server. The test for port 1434 MS SQL (UDP) is correctly addressed to the SQL server as specified in the database settings.

The configuration flag "Always test for connection" is always on at startup, even though the flag has been reset in the previous session. Is this by design?

for information I test VLC 0.9.0 VLC Media Player nightly builds
and it's ok, i have not the problem like with VLC 0.86i

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Team MediaPortal\MPTvClient]
"AlwaysPerformConnectionChecks"=dword:00000001

No matter whether I disable the check in the application itself or manually in the registry, everytime I run the MPTV-client it is set back to "1". Is this normal behaviour ?

I am the only one seing this ?

Hi new to this and want to get it working on my EEE. I have version 1.3.1 and TV server RC2. (Not the SVN) When I try to connect to I get errors as on the attached pic. I have opened ports in my router but to no avail? Any help or suggestions appreciated. Thanks in advance.

[chrisonline]

Have you open the ports in the local installed firewall?
On the HTPC?

[pigboy306]

thanks for your reply. I opened ports on my router. I have a router then seperate modem. I only opened ports on router as this is what the computers are networked through. I turned off windows firewall too...

I can also open rtsp://192.168.2.101/stream1.0 in VLC which show a tv stream.... any offers??

I have tried this on my EEE as well and get the first three as errors on connection test. I also get this error if i ignore the error

See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this

jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging

</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer

Which probably means i have something missing , although i am not sure what any help as always appreciated.

I seem to have a problem with MPTV 1.3.1 and the latest svn.
I can connect and it will display all the epg data and when I want to select a channel it will open up vlc 8.6 and play fine the problem starts when I want to change channel. When I do vlc will close and reopen and when it does it will start to play from the beginning of the very first channel I watched. While the TVserver will have changed channel and its time shifting.
Also if I close vlc or MPTV the TVserver does not seem to notice and keeps on time shifting.

I have had a look over previous pages here but I didn't see anything similar. Anyone else had any similar problems or provide any help.

Thanks

Peter

Some suggestions:
Show a better message when the config is invalid indicating which part you dont like.
Also I noticed if I enter localhost as hostadress, "TvService RemoteControl" and MySql work, but RTSP streaming shows FAILED. Either notify the user that localhost(or anything that resolves to 127.0.0.1) is not a valid choice for host when he entered it, or correct it so it does not fail.
