[QUOTE="cewillis, post: 892631, member: 106719"] Well, mm, I have absolutely no idea what's going on here -- but I do know that it is NOT a problem with MP. Here's the recent history, for amusement only. Yes, Admin privileges. The partition in question is drive letter e, not d. The MP files are all in the standard locations you mentioned, including TsReader.ax. The batch file you provided (after changing the drive letter) could not find any of the referenced files, until I put the batch file in the MediaPortal directory, and removed all the path information from the referenced files and the TV files. Then the modified batch file did find the first 3 referenced files, but could not find TsReader.ax even though it is clearly right there in the directory. This made me think 'disk or file error' (being out of other ideas), so I did a Full, Everything, Complete, Yes I mean all of it MP uninstall, and ran a 3 hour disk check, which did find and fix (it claims) 2 files access records, and one bad sector. Then I redownloaded the 1.2.3 install file, and installed -- again. Same Exact Result. MP gets the same error when trying any playback, and the modified batch file can't find TsReader.ax when it is absolutely there. Just a reminder, way back at the beginning of this thread I HAD 1.2.3 installed and running ON THIS SAME PARTITION!!!!! For the record, the MP install is completely automatic and totally painless -- as expected. It's me that's having the problem. In literally hundreds of installs over 30+ years going back to DOS 1.0, I've never seen anything screw up like this. I guess I'll try a virus scan -- haven't done that in a couple of days. Then maybe trash my disk and my install CD and start over --- By the way -- I got the right arrow and everything else (so far) to work by not selecting either MCE or generic HID, and only defining 2 buttons, instead of most of then, with KeyboardInputPlugin. Defined Power (ctrl-e on my remote) as Standby Windows and defined Back as Previous Menu in all instances. Weird, huh? Still have the annoying 2 second blank screen - I'll let you know if and when I get things working. Thanks for all your help and patience, Cal [/QUOTE]
