Like I said, I'm running Windows Server 2012. I would use the Windows 8 drivers if they worked.

    Just to let you know, I did a clean install with 1.4.0.6 last night and have been running it throughout the day.

    No issues that I can see - anything specific I should test out / look for?

    I might tell it to grab hourly to see how if affects playback?

    Why?

    The data only changes on exceptional circumstances, football overrunning etc.

    Hi, I wanted to see if the grabbing process effects the tv playback. I can see that my tv has locked up, but because I had MP set to be always on top, I couldn't get to Task Manager to kill the mp process and generate logs. I will try again

    Exported logs - can anyone see what caused the freeze?

    What is everyone using to schedule their PC to boot at a certain time in order to run DJB's grabber?

    I was going to use PS++ but will it pick up that the grabber has been scheduled for a certain time, boot and then shut down when done?

    thanks

    Hi there,

    I use PS++ to reboot at 2:55am

    I have the EPG Scheduler to run a 3am. Due to the reboot, other processes kickin/start (sickbeard, etc) which keeps the HTPC on until everything is finished.

    Is there a fix for the channel number 10000 error? Using the latest plugins...

    Hey again, been a while since I've needed to post as everything been working great and thankfully no stuttering issues :)

    I do have one error/issue with the re-introduced logo grabber (thanks for this by the way, I really appreciate this feature) but it will not download/update the logos and I get this in my logs:

    [2013-09-01 13:10:06,886] [Log ] [13 ] [INFO ] - Sky Plugin : Error grabbing logo - A generic error occurred in GDI+.

    I don't know if the issues are at my end or where the logos are grabbed from, I have tried in the default thumbs folder as well as moving to a new folder on the desktop but unfortunately there is no change, any ideas?

    Cheers, Bob.

    Scan today has grabbed some new logos so am guessing it was a temp issue :) And as ever, thanks for all your hard work DJBlu!!.
