Hi All, after having a flawless run with MP 1.12 I decided I would give 1.2 Beta a try (the new skins coming out were just too tempting). Unfortunately I’m getting some pretty strange things happening when i try to watch live TV. When i first turn on the tv in MP, it runs perfectly smoothly and normally, but if I turn it off, and then back on again (either immediately or later on in the day) i get just a split second of tv picture and sound that just keeps looping, or sometimes a black screen, then a 'no program/channel found' message.
In tv server config, if I click preview, I either get picture and no sound (on first attempt) or a preview failed: NoPMTfound message (on second attempt).

I’m assuming the issues come from something with my Avermedia A16A tuner card, i had numerous issues with it until i upgraded to the win 7 beta drivers. But it worked smoothly with MP1.12 release so I’m hoping there is something I can do to get it working here.

The issue happens with all skins and all codecs.

I have tried rescanning all channels and that doesn’t fix the issue. I’ve also tried a fresh install of MP, and reinstalling the tv tuner drivers.

Logs are attached, any advice on what I should do next would be gratefully received.

Cheers
Barry

Hi Barry

I've moved your thread to the 1.2.0b bug report section - it makes it easier for us as a team to track problems if all the 1.2.0b issues are in one place. I hope you don't mind...

The first thing I'm going to ask you to do is to please have a read of -->this post<-- and see if changing that setting resolves your issues.

Best regards,
mm

Thank you so much MM, changing that setting to stop did the trick. In all my reading of the wiki I didn’t notice that bit.

That what i love about media portal, great software and helpful developers and community members to ask for advice if anything goes wrong.

Cheers

Barry
