Hi all,

I am using MP 1.0.2 (I also use StreamedMP and For The Record) and need to stream LiveTV & recordings over my home network to my laptop as my TV is being sent in for repair :eek:

I was hoping to use MPTvClient but this doesnt work for some reason and the creator is not active in the forum for it. Any other suggestions please to stop the wrath of my wife who cant watch any TV!!! Thanks for the help :)

What is the problem with the tv client?
It works great here and for most, getting it working would be your best bet.

Things to try at first are:
Turn off firewalls on both client and server.
Use the servers IP address instead of the servers name when setting up the client.
Try different codecs, some simply don't like to stream.

The more details about your problem, the easier it will be to help you out.

does the version of MePo you are using match the version of your tv server?
are you using the built in tv client or are you using an old antiquated plugin?

can you post a screenshot of how you have it configured?
the exceptions are strange tho, it looks like a version mismatch because it doesn't seem to be finding the correct library entries.

does it show this exception when you try to watch tv, or when you start MP?
