Hi Greenhorn7 I dont really have any more info, since I configured the test system that had the issue to record to a NAS folder the issue has gone away and never returned. The only thing I can suggest is to maybe try changing the default recording location to somewhere that you know has no...

Hi Ge2301 Thanks for the help I tried the suggestion but it didnt help - however the issue is sorted now. - it seems that it was just that the server needed a restart (even though there was no indication in Windows) - as soon as I started both clients (one reparied as above, one not) both...

Hi, I have a server/client PC (MP2.4) that seems still to be still working fine, but 2 other clients have suddenly stopped playing live TV and give the same message: "There is no player registered to play item 'media stream X.X' ". I have been on holiday and both clients have needed a windows...

Hi ge2301 I wasnt 100% clear above - when I said everything was now working other than displaying TV, I also meant that 'videos' still didnt play. But the client attached to the server OK and can do everything except play TV programs (and videos) - the screen with the player controls loads (and...

Hi ge2301 - thanks again for the quick response. I tried to detach and reattach this client (which is on the same PC) but its still the same (everything works fine except for playing TV where the screen is black) and then tried to add an IP binding in settings to 127.0.0.1 but then the client...

Hi ge2301 Thanks for the quick response - I went ahead and did a full install (reset) of windows and MP again today. The server issue is fixed - the other client can see the server and play all recorded TV as it used to. I also did a manual upgrade of the latest Intel driver for the new...

Hi i just upgraded my motherboard and drive and installed a replacement copy (server and client) of MP2.4. all works perfectly apart from 2 things: live or recorded tv or videos wont play - i just get a black screen and the timer doesnt increase. the server doesnt seem to be publishing itself...

Hi all - thanks for looking into this. I have some updated info - today (before reading the above) I started preparing this 'test system' to become the live system - this simply meant adding a couple of extra TV cards (USB) and changing the media library locations and TV recording location from...

Hi morpheus-XX and ge2031, thanks for the replies. I still have the issue that no thumbs are being created though. I have checked and in the folders x86/x64 mentioned above, the .exe files are there if that is any help.

Hi Thanks for you help with this. Logs attached (debug mode initiated around 09:15 on 3 Jan 2022 - should be 2/3 full recordings after that time)

I just installed MP2.4 on a new Win10 box (new test system for replacement of MP2.3 laptop) and its all working fine except that the thumbs for the recorded TV are not being created. I have checked the settings in the TV server configuration: 'Recordings' on the thumbs page and 'autocreate...

Hi CyberSimian THANKS!!!! deleting the channels then doing an 'all regions' scan has fixed it :) I had retuned many time before that without success so I think it was deleting the old channels that was different this time. Thanks again for the very clear and detailed suggestions and quick...

Hi, I recently had to rebuild my mediacenter running mediaportal 2.2.2 because of an SSD failure. This has all worked perfectly except that I now have some missing channels (BBC1, BB2, ITV1, C4 for example) but I have 'all' the other channels working perfectly (65 other channels in total) - all...

I have upgraded to MP2 from MP1 and all works except that when I record TV shows, they record fine on the NAS share but they don't show up in 'Recordings' unless I manually reimport. Also I cant delete watched recordings using MP2 - it doesn't give any errors, just doesn't delete the recording...

Hi Owlsroost - thanks!! That's worked - I have set the service to run under the logged on user account and it works fine! I don't know what changed but its working and that's great Thanks again Paul
