Good morning everyone,

I experienced some trouble during the channel scan in MP. At this point in the setup wizard, MP crashes and the 'sorry, MP closed because of an error' window appears. I tried a few more times (reboot, BDA driver reinstall), but failed every time.
I am using MS MCE as well, but for the MP install I specifically uninstalled the DigitalEverywhere MCE BDA drivers+Plugin and installed the BDA light version (4.8) instead - this is the one recommended for MP on the DE website.
Can anyone figure out what's wrong from the log-files?

many ,
KleMC

hi
i had this
you have a digital card but you are on the analog tuning page.
just skip past it and it will give you a digital tuning page, use that one.
there should be some error trapping there

Please make sure to have the DVB patch, provided by Microsoft, installed.

Kind regards,

really? MP realises that I have a DVB-S card, it even asks which satellite it should scan. How can I bypass the scan? It crashes straight away at this part of the setup.

patch is installed. all XP updates in place.

in the meantime I have tried 0.2.3.0 RC and got the same result. Any clues?

 

[Taipan]

Are you trying to run the channel scan from within MediaPortal (you mention the "setup wizard") , or from within MediaPortal Setup?

You should be using MediaPortal Setup, and not the setup wizard inside MediaPortal.

hey Klemc,
hmmm maybe it's not the same then.
my card is a DVB-T but it doesn't have analog, well it does, but only as composite in, not like rf in, that's just for digital.

i'd listen to Taipan, he fixed my issue, with a different tv card driver and that patch he links to.
