Hi. Please help.
I am running 7MC AND MP (but not at the same time (of course). My missus likes to record TV shows using 7MC because apparently the WAF is higher using the scheduler over there. However, all of our viewing is done using MP because the StramedMP skin is, well, absolutely brilliant...
However...
If I have been watching TV on MP, and then I shut MP down and then open up 7MC, I get an error when I try to go to Live TV saying that the Tuner is in use by another application. I can fix this by going into "Services" in Manage Computer and stopping the MP TV Server, but of course, I shouldn't have to do that.
To make matters much worse, when 7MC tries to wake the computer in the middle of the night to record something, it clearly encounters the same problem and doesn't record the show - but - more annoying than that, it then seems to log an error and then fails to put the computer back to sleep. The net result is that if I have EVER run MP Live TV, the next time 7MC tries to record something in the night, it will fail and the PC will stay awake until I come along and tell it to sleep (usually in the morning, by which time my study is all toasty because of the heat that my pimped up PC kicks out.
So, to cut a long story short - shouldn't MP by shutting down it's TV Server Service when it exits so that 7MC can use the resources (i.e sharing the TV Card?).
Anyone else got this problem? I'd be eternally grateful for a solution....
Oh: btw: latest stable release of MP, latest StreamedMP etc.
Thanks
