[QUOTE="Teebor, post: 138631, member: 19033"] Right, whole collection of problems which are all related but I cannot work out what caused it or how to fix it. I was using an older SVN but just tried upgrading using MediaPortal-svn--03-26-2007--19-46-Rev13616.exe to see if it would correct the fault, but no luck. Description of problems: Media Portal Setup recognises tvcards and acknowledges channels assigned to the cards, and webEPG happily downloads the listings for the cards as well. But when I open MyTV, the tv starts to play (its set not to) and when I change the channel I get the following message "No TV tuner available to play 30 mins" If I open the tvguide it has "no channel" down one side and "no data available" across the screen (remember I just said I used WebEPG to download the listings, but nothing appears) Media Portal is seemingly trying to record TV still but I cannot access the above things to do any more. Just prior to this happening I had been watching some recorded tv from last night when everything was fine. I have run a full scan disk to check the OS HDD is ok and it seems fine, also the HDD for recording checked out ok (its only a month old anyway so I should hope so) I tried deleting the tvguide.xml created by WebEPG and created a new one but that doesn't help the tvguide in media portal. And I almost forgot, if I try to turn off the tv in MyTV and then switch it on again it plays fine but I cannot select the channel as no tuners??? But if I try to fullscreen Media Portal completely freezes up with a black screen and I have to end task it to get back to the desktop. Any ideas? I'm not a very happy bunny right now :( :( MediaPortal Version: MediaPortal-svn--03-26-2007--19-46-Rev13616.exe MediaPortal Skin: blue two Windows Version: Windows xp sp2 CPU Type: AMD HDD: 80GB Maxtor (with a 200GB SATA maxtor as storage only) Memory: 512MB Motherboard: Some MSI board, can't remember model no.
