Not sure you guys can do much without a proper log

I think I am just doomed

I moved the new post to this threat and moved the whole thread to general support. We continue in this thread, no additional one needed.

And yes, a log is what we need. It's MediaPortal.log... It doesn't get reset on a hard reset or something, it's a continous session log.

Btw, nobody here thinks you are complaining, don't worry.

Ok found it! it was in \Program Files\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\MediaPortal\log.

Dose that seem odd?

Posted it in pastbin.

You may want to add the pastebin url here as it doesn't go anywhere special...

 

[Folkfan]

Thanks Noelix. I thought it seemed to go a bit quiet all of a sudden.

That's a log of a configuration session, so unusable in this case.

But what pierced into my eye is that you have a strange directory structure...

You said: \Program Files\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\MediaPortal\log
But in fact it is: \Program Files\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\log

Could it be that you mixed something up while installing? (However since you don't even use SVN, as you mentioned.)

I'd suggest to uninstall all MP stuff, delete the Team MediaPortal directory and start from scratch. Pls test first with the internal music players. If that's ok you might wanna look at winamp again (in case you still want to use it after you've got used to the new integrated BASS engine).

 

[Folkfan]

Yeah, I thought that seemed odd too.

I'll let you know if that fixes it.

Thanks

 

[Folkfan]

Looks like that was the problem.

I'll keep it running today and see if it stays stable.

Thanks a lot everyone.

 

[Folkfan]

Yep. Thats fixed it.

But now I have new, tv related, problems. Grrrrrr . . . .

I'll try to sort them out on my own. If I cant I'll start a new thread.

Man, I wish I could get MP working properly : (

btw tried gbpvr, it dose seem to work ok but its nowhere near as good as MP. I really dont want to have to use it. It looks nasty.

Glad you got it sorted out. does your winamp still freeze now that you've corrected the directory structure? that would be really strange to me if that was causing the whole problem...
