card: unable to connect to slave controller at: (1 Viewer)

Hi this fault usually appears when i have either stopped Mp and put the pc to sleep then woke it up or stopped Mp and worked on the desktop for a while then restarted Mp.

I can get to the home page okay and cycle through the items but when i click watch Tv the screen goes blank (but Mp is there but no icons showing) and sits like that till i do a control alt delete to get out and stop MP, if i shut down Mp from the home menu and restart i get the same result only by restarting the pc does it all work again.

Thanks

Robert

Hi,

I found the same error log today. One mistake that I did was to assign the IP adress to my HTPC over DHCP. So sometimes it happened that I put the HTPC to sleep for a night, start it up next day and the box got a different IP than in the evening. MP didn't recognise this and is not able to find databases and servers which runs on the "old" IP. Do you use DHCP, if yes try to fix the IP adresses!
