No, it is a copy of my production partition on the same machine.

I checked this morning that the new DLLs were present in the MP folder, so the executables had been updated successfully yesterday.

These were the DB versions present (from my tests yesterday). I deleted them this morning and started "MP Config". MP Config showed the new start-up setting (so I was invoking the new version), and on exit, the new databases were created again. However, on entry to the a folder in the "Videos" section, MP once again showed the spinning dial.

I use the Ortek/Hama remote control, which does not use "MpTray" to start MP from the Windows desktop. I use AutoHotKey to intercept the relevant keystroke and start MP in response. From previous experience, I believe that it is necessary to stop TV Server in order to update DLLs which TV Server is using (Windows locks them, I think?). I don't know which DLLs are used by TV Server.
