Hello,

I believe I found a bug when specific hardware is plugged on COM Port.

A device like a serial printer.

This is not a new feature like RenameTVRecorded program, only a bug correction.

* Before :

Reproduced each time configuration.exe is launched

1/ Exception Form :

2/ Entire exception text :

[code]************** Texte de l'exception **************

JH.CommBase.CommPortException: Bad com settings

   à JH.CommBase.CommBase.ThrowException(String reason)

3/ A config Form wich use Com informations :

* After :

1/ No exception Form.

2/ Configuration.log :

2008-08-18 09:25:18.590720 [ERROR][Config Main]: CommBase: Bad com settings

3/ The config Form wich use COM informations :

We can see information that COM1 port is not available, now.

I modified a little bit Open() method in CommBase class.

I attached modified class.

Could replace older CommBase.cs located in \MediaPortal\Core\SerialUIR\ folder.

Only if you want, of course.
