Hi

The plugin is installed on th main computer with MP1.1B and TVSERVER beta + latest SVN.
some bugs:

--- I get this error message when trying to enter TV/RECORDING/RADIO/SCHEDULES/TV SERVER STATUS.

--- I cannot see any video or music files, I don't know where can I find the VLC browser patch - can't it be in asx format for media player? it's more versatile player than VLC...
--- I can't see any photos, all I see is blank squares with the file name.
--- I cannot see anything in "Movies"
--- When I try to search for an album I also get the error message above

please help me make this plugin work.

thanks

The problems seems to be that the webservice cannot access the database.

1. Do you use MySQL?
2. Is your computers' name "HTPC-1"?
3. Is the username "sa" and password "mediaportal" correct?

[staticx]

I think I'm using Microsoft SQL , not mysql
the user/pass is root and mediaportal

my htpc name is HTPC-1

[DieBagger]

That is most likely the problem but you'll have to wait for gemx to comment on whether or not it's even possible to use ms-sql.

WebServices isn't changing the DefaultProviderName when opening the database connection. It seems that de default provider is always mysql, also if you're using MySQL. A quick hack is to add on line 91 of App_Code/TvServiceWebServices.asmx.cs this:

        Gentle.Framework.GentleSettings.DefaultProviderName = provider;

(just above Gentle.Framework.ProviderFactory.SetDefaultProviderConnectionString(connStr))

Hi there,

I am running with MS SQL 2008 Express.

Works fine (regarding DB connectivity) - I can't remember if I ad to change anything to get it working though
