Is it possible to install an older version of mediaportal with leaving the current one intact?
For testing purpose.

I have tried but i only get a new folder which is empty.

    You can not run 2 copies of mp at the same time, but you can backup the following directories (copy or rename them):
    C:\ProgramFiles\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal and TvServer and
    C:\ProgramData\Team mediaPortal\MediaPortal and TvServer

    You might have a risc in destroying your TvDazabase, so pleas backup that one.

    I can confirm that. After reinstalling MP1.31(x86) I mistakenly installed the x64 version MpUrlSourcesplitter. Then I got the error. After uninstalling MpUrlSourcesplitter(x64) I installed the MpUrlSourcesplitter(x86). But the error message still comes.

    Well, currently the plugin shows the sun/moon times in user's local time. As you said, It would require to add time zone parameter to the profile. I'll try to add this option in the next version. PS: please use official thread

    Hi, First off: there are some issues with the latest Mediaportal (32bits vs 64bits), so that is one of the issues you're stumbling with. If you take the previous version (1.31) it should work as expected. For IPTV there is also a different option (with different pros and cons): Onlinevideos. I'm using that sometimes for my IPTV as...

    Yes correct that would have solved it. I guess I was more interested in finding out what I had done to cause the problem as the error message was of no help. By deleting everything I wouldn't have known so it was a learning curve for future reference. Fully understood I thought that might be the case. I also had some issues with...
