    Well, I think I have the solution for my problem:

    In the configuration under the General tab, "Play first unwatched episode" was set under; "On play action on series or season view". I have changed that in; "Do nothing" and didn't have that problem anymore..

    @mat123: Maybe that's also the solution for you!

    Strange, that should only affect when you press 'Play'. Do you have Play button mapped to 'OK' ? That feature is so you can press play button at the series/season level and play based on your selection.

    Anyway, will take a closer look at that code as well.

    I find it hard to believe that changing this setting magically "fixes" the error. The error is probably just hard to reproduce in some scenarios so it might be just hidden for now. But OK, let's say it fixes the freeze for you, We still need to fix the error in the code :)

    So...could you share DB file? Also, I can build special test version of TVSeries that will log some more info if you're willing to test?

    Well, actually, Is have reported this as "solution" to early..

    I have 2 kinds of crashes.. A complete freeze of Mediaportal, and only a diolog with "Mediaportal had crashed" but after that, everything works fine..

    The first kind of crash looks like It is solved now, but I have see the second crash still sometimes..

    I have no idea what to do!

    Like I wrote above, you are right, the error was hidden for a while.. It plays with me! ;)

    I want to share my DB files soon.. What exactly do you need? :)

    Two problems, so:

    1. Freeze
    2. Crash with dialog ("Mediaportal had crashed") - screenshot?

    You have to focus on one problem at a time and tell me when it happens? "sometimes" is not enough, it has to be something like "during import", "when i press X", "when i open X", exact sequence to initiate the crash :)

    Logs. Logs should be clean with one problem reproduced only and when posting them, note the EXACT time of error (hour:min:seconds if possible).

    Use this DLL to reproduce problems and gather logs. Don't forget to put that setting back so you can reproduce first problem. About DB, it's not needed yet. If we're lucky it won't be even needed ;)

    Well, with this new version, (latest SVN??) The problem seems to be gone.. I have started Mediaportal and tv series 5 or 6 times, with out any crashes.. In the past, the problem with the crash dialog was almost alway there..

    When the problem is coming back, I'll report it, and share alle information you need!
    But for now, thanks! :)

    I can confirm both issues. I just had another crash, logs attached (using your dll)

    Well, for me the problem is gone since 2 week with the latest version of this plugin and MP 1.2.0 RC. I am wating for my new pc parts now to upgrade my HTPC, (i3 2100, asus P8P67, and 8GB DDR3 1600Mhz,:D:D)

    When the system is finished, I will test it again with Mediaportal 1.2.0 final.. When the problems are still gone, I can give you my logs, to check my settings with yours..

    Maybe that's usefull. :)
