I have updated 1.2.1 to 1.2.2 and the MediaPortalDirs.xml was overvrited. I had modified it for move directory to ramdisk.

Before update is better to backup MediaPortalDirs.xml.

Bye.

    Hi there :)

    If you use a custom MediaPortalDirs.xml, it must be located in the user's MyDocs folder.

    Do you still have your install log file? (folder locations)
    That will reveal the exact path where you need to put it.
    Example, mine looks like this:
    [ERROR !!!] Loading MediaPortalDirectories from MyDocs failed. ('C:\Users\htpc\Documents\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortalDirs.xml')
    [ INFO] Trying to load from installation directory now.
    [ INFO] Loaded MediaPortalDirectories from InstallDir successfully. ('C:\Program Files\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\MediaPortalDirs.xml')
    So on my htpc, I need to put it in C:\Users\htpc\Documents\Team MediaPortal\ if I want MP to preserve it.

    It's working after some hours search: the Auto3D plugin which I haven't used for years was corrupting the start of the TV live stream from server to MP. If anyone has a similar problem - disable all old plugins and then enable one after another :-)
