    From your logs.

    DVD genesis . viewed and stopped TVSERVER still alive.

    2008-06-20 15:29:39.612000 [Info.][MPMain]: g_Player.OnStarted() E:\Video\Genesis - When in Rome\DVD 1\VIDEO_TS\VIDEO_TS.IFO media:Video

    Then TSfile king kong . viewed and stopped TVSERVER still alive.

    2008-06-20 15:33:27.616000 [Info.][MPMain]: g_Player.OnStarted() E:\Video\King Kong\King Kong.ts media:Video

    Then timeshift of channel WDR . this caused the TVSERVER and MP GUI crash.

    2008-06-20 15:35:15.343000 [Info.][MPMain]: TVHome.ViewChannelAndCheck(): View channel=WDR Duisburg


    This is where the crash occured.

    2008-06-20 15:35:17.004000 [14]: Controller: StartTimeShifting started on card:1 to E:\Timeshift\live1-0.ts.tsbuffer

    As to why the devs need to look at your logs.

    Try changing codecs for your movies and tv in settings. See if having identical codecs makes a difference.

    Also with DVD what navigator are you using, ?Is the DVD navigator being reused by the TVSERVER and causing a hang when the tvbuffer is started?

    Codecs or DVD navigator should have any effect on the tvservice.exe stability as the server is not using either of those.

    Quite true. I was posing whether this impacted during the MP graph build and had an effect as the buffer is being read and 'indirectly' could cause the TVSERVER to fail.

    Wouldn't this indicate a problem in the TVPLUGIN ?

    Just throwing thoughts out here !

    After MP crashes, could you check with task manager if the tvservice.exe process is still running?

    Hi tourettes!

    Yes, the tvservice is still runnung. After i stop the tvservice in the taskamanager, it takes 4-5 minutes, i can close MP, without crashing. Then i have to start the TVservice and MP works!

    Fixed, I think. Certainly the vintage MP2 installer that I was using no longer installs the LAV filters. I can only assume that these were never part of the install package itself, but rather downloaded during the install, and that link no longer exists. Shame that the installer doesn't indicate this. Last time when I installed the...

    @CyberSimian Sorry, I missed your last post. I ended up doing a clean install on the client and all is well now. It still doesn't let me go back in time when I change channels but it does continue operating from that point on. I'm ok with that. Thanks for your help! EDIT: I now downgraded the server (as I did with the client above)...
