MediaPortal SVN-Snapshot: 03-22-2008 05-06h - Revision:18153

[MediaPortal-Bot]

Infos:
These Subversion-snaps are compiled at about 01.00h (CET).
You can also visit the official irc-channel (#mediaportal) to get a notice when its ready for download. The trigger !svn gives you the latest update too.
They are not pre-tested, so please use the backup option from time to time.
If you'd like the bleeding edge code and don't mind the inherent risks, upgrade to the snapshot releases as they become available.
If stability is important to you, you might want to stay with the fully-tested releases.

How to install MediaPortal SVN-Snapshots in short:
1) Install MediaPortal 0.2.3.0, not necessary if already done
2) install .NET Framework Version 2.0
3) Run the Snapshot-Installer. You should create a backup.
4) Run Configure. Sometimes the settings and database versions change from build to build, so you have to reconfigure your TV for example
5) Hopefully enjoy the new version
6) If not, restore your old files and you will have the former version back.

Important notice: The backup function wont work for Vista atm, here you need to save your configuration manually. A rewrite is planned but will take some more time for testing.

You can find more infos on SVN-snaps and how to install them in this Wiki-guide

Missing thumbs in root folders

Hi -

This has happened with both this and the previous svn versions.

Yesterdays was installed over a clean 2.3.0 install.

I fixed it yesterday by restoring an old version of dshowhelper.dll (from 2.3.0 final), and assume that the same will fix it today...

Error in log is:

NotFoundException: Unable to load DLL 'dshowhelper.dll': This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect.

Same problem here when trying to start a video

Hi,
For some reason some systems(we don't know yet whats common) have problems with TsReader.ax registration & dshowhelper.dll after code cleanup, developers are working on it so have patience & use a older build instead.

Regards
Roy
