I searched the forum but apparently no-one has had this issue before:
I can't create site groups on a new installation of OV 1.0.0.0. I only use 2-3 sites, and having to dig them in the 'English" group is quite annoying.
I get the same on MP 1.2.1 and 1.2.2. I tried to downgrade to version 0.33.0.1, but it doesn't update the site list (because it is old...)
What seems to happen (on version 1.0.0.0) is this: the configuration utility creates the OnlineVideoGroups.xml file, but it doesn't write to it: it has size 0. Permissions are ok, and the file is writable. I have another PC with MP and OV, where I was able to configure groups (when I still had version 0.33.0.1), so I also tried to copy the file from that PC, but nothing changes: it doesn't apply the groups from the new file.
This are the contents of OnlineVideos.log:

Not sure what to make of the last line: there is no "DataContractSerializer" string in machine.config for either .NET 1.1 or 2.0. I recently had to reinstall both 1.1 and 2.0, but that should've fixed configuration problems, if anything.
