No specific OS updates, box runnin on vista 32bit,
and everything running smooth as ever...
Then out of the blue, since yesterday...
what i always do is take a rarred backup of the dir where the program is installed and the program data dir with the team mediaportal.
if anything comes to the worse i can reset an older one back.
i had a working backup made on 01-11-2011
so renamed the newest dirs, extracted the info from the...
well i'm buffed...vista32 system where MP ran about continuous, with the occasional update boot
and no glitches, no mishaps
till today...
i knew i forgot to mount de music disk...
and so exited back to the OS, using MP, point to top, select the X
MP closed itself, as it always has, nothing...
yep indeed
was wrestling with the same issue...
updated the MP to 1.2, mytvseries, mymovies and streamedmp one after the other
so was looking myself blind in those for this issue
altough subs were shown right, when one skipped (intro piece for instance) then the subs started from the beginning...
yeh it is purely thetvdb.com.
Nothing to do with MP or MyTVseries plugin.
the MP and MyTVseries plugin only retrieves the info from thetvdb.com
and when that latter is down, one can not retrieve the data
And it is a site most used by other portals such as xmbc etc
i wouldn't want to start...
the open source is not a 'do as you like'
don't think i put that in my reply neither...
imo it seems pointless to preinstall it on a resellers box...
every item is best configged to the devices the new owner has. which is impossible to foresee
and imo open source is abt always not allowed to...
it is actually a codec problem.
But imo not due to the codec...
If without MP one can play all files with any app (ex. vlc, wmp, mpc, etc) then all codecs are as they should be
if when entered in MP, certain files (of certain extensions) will not play, then it is the player inside MP that does...
afaik is MP open source, as are all the plugins.
configuring a pc/mediacenter to be ready to use at a home is not really possible.
Each person can have tons of different equipment at home and taking those into account, one can not adapt the settings for everything.
The only thing in such case a...
had once added the battlestar galactica 80's series
and for some reason it always picked the 2004 series for it.
so to correct this, when in mytvseries-config
choose the lefttab
then you see all your series.
move to the serie of season and leftklick that (to make sure u pick the right...
never worked differently than with a direct hdmi link from my full1080 laptop to the tv/digital output to amplifier
and network connected via router + gateway to my mediabox (which is in the attick)
network box is an old amd3800 x86 with winxp on it, clean install, no updates, nothing added...
yep perfectly ...
just added the FLVSplitter.ax to a dir of my choosing....
but perform the 'regsvr32 FLVSplitter.ax' with admin dosbox at the location where the FLVSplitter.ax is located
checking the onlinevideos plugin reveiled that flv was checked with the right program
and opening MP...
fantastic, quick jump into irc
fast resolution found
BackupSettingsMP plugin was the cause
1. disable it in the MP config
2. enter the MP install dir <drive>:\install-dir\plugins\process\
3. physically remove BackupSettingsMP.dll + BackupSettingsMP.exe
4. fire up the MP config
5. test...
will firstoff kill that backup thing.
logs can be found :
logs_2010-11-19_r3p00.rar
if u could paste me the irc info, will jump in there... what's one more irc window anyway ;)
I have used the backup plugin...
but not for a longer while.
if u can stipulate me the location of the logs you require, will gladly set them here.
C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\log\*.* <= ?
or specific logs ?
