I have been running 1.12 for many years. Thought I would give a newer version a try. Basic functions all work and not issue tuning to stations, recording shows etc. So operation all good but if the system is left for a period of time the GUI will freeze. The watchdog will not detect what is causing this i.e. the gui is not rebooted. I thought it was leaving a station running over night that was causing it - but no - the GUI can be left running and it will lock up as well. Simple things like the batteries in the remote are not the issue as the laptop keyboard is also non responsive - until I ctr alt del to get up the task manager.
This install was done on a backup image of the laptop, this backup restored over the old 1.12 install (I have a backup of this image) and all windows 7 service packs and updates installed. Only then was MP1.19 installed. I have since snapped a backup disk image of this running system.
So I am at a loss what to look for. I cannot see in the logs (attached) any reason for said lockup. I have seen some errors in the windows system logs and (I believe) tided up the causes of those errors but too early to say if any were the case of this. The install is basically as used for v1.12 that gave many years of service.
edit1 added log extract
This is where it is dying:
Edit2
No evidence of such time jumps in the tvserver logs i.e. I assume not a tvserver issue.
Edit 3 - I found the system dead at 8am . . no logs from midnight to 749am . . i.e. the media portal gui dead.
Any advice appreciated.
