Hi,

I have just got the same problem. My installation is 2 weeks old, and suddenly I can not open the MP Config. Apparently there must be some error in one of my .xml files, but as I have made no changes lately I do not know where to look.

Exactly which files did you delete?

Did you loose all your settings by doing this? I really do not want to reconfigure everything again.

hi

yes.. all config was lost.. but the way i see it .. better to reconfig and have something that works than to have something flaky.

I am runnng on Vista, and if you are running XP i guess the files are placed different.
but i looked for a folder, containing se settings folders, and backup folders.
here i just renamed all folders so they startet with BAK_............

after this .. all settings was lost, but everything worked again..

The problem is that this is the second time I get this problem. When I updated from RC3 two weeks ago: after spending several hours configurating MP1.0 I got this error just when I was done. I then did a complete reinstall of MP once again and configured it sucessfully this time. Now after two weeks I suddenly get this error again. The only thing I have been changing in the config since the last reinstall is in the powerscheduler plugin (problem with my HTPC not going to S3).

I´m also on vista, can you please specify which folders has the settings and backup folders in them?

I also had the exact same problem.

In MediaPortal.log, I see the following error:
Code: 
2009-02-26 07:44:42.559000 [Info.][BassAudio]: BASS: Initialize thread failed.  Reason: Fehler im XML-Dokument (0,0).
So it has to do with the Bass player, it seems...

So I searched for the file that doesn't look like nice XML, turned out it was the musicdsp.xml in
C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal

It was empty, same problem I had a while ago with MediaPortal.exe.config.
The config files seem to be quite fragile sometimes...

    Click to expand...

    I installed Vista and MP 1.0 last week. Now I have already once had corrupted mediaportal.exe.config, and once corrupted musicdsp.xml! During the previous 1,5 years with XP I never experienced this issue, so this has to be related somehow to Vista and MP. Both times the config files got corrupted without a system crash. This is extremely annoying!

    I know this is an old thread but I have had mp 1.1.0 rc2 crash twice with similar errors. Usually when playing around with S3 sleep (never wants to work properly).

    I found that the musicdsp.xml file was empty (the time the file was modified was when mediaportal stopped working). I renamed the file and everything was back working again. YAY :D

    Hope this helps someone else having this problem.

    cheers,
