It seems considerably less stable since I installed Vista SP1.

It has crashed several times, while watching H.264 MKV stuff, while it was rock-stable before.

My Films (4.4.1.4)seems more finicky, giving errors on some, but not all H.264 MKV files (Insert disk, on movies it knew how to find before.)

My TV Series seem to crash often while opening plugin settings with the latest stable version. Revision 275 (SVN) works, but Revision 276 gives error while opening plugin settings.

My Music is barely usable: The only view which kind of works is Shares. If I switch to any other View, like Album Artist, I lose all of the library - it's just empty. Also, even when I can see the library in Shares view, the large Album Art field is empty when you scroll through list view.

I've uninstalled MP, deleting all folders and settings, same results after reinstall.

Can confirm this one, not sure whether it is related to sp1beta, but i have it installed as well.

Just to be certain will check with xp, and make sure it is working there.

SP1 went RPM 04/02/2008 and will be available 15/02/2008 (today) for Volume License users and at the end of the month for all MSDN/Technet users.

It's available to many
Microsoft: Vista SP1 RTM Downloads Available, but Not for You! - Only for MSDN subscribers - Softpedia

Hope MP runs smooth on it soon, though.

I was hoping to get my SP1 RTM today but unfortunatly all release dates are only rumors...

My company is a Gold Microsoft Partner and so we are under Volume License rules but still no SP1 in our Microsoft dedicated download page...

Can you see art in My Music (list view?)

Can you see anything in My Music, if you are in Album Artist view, or any other view than Share?

Could you please set MP to "debug" log level, start MP, try to switch a music view and post the Mediaportal.log again?

 

[steven83]

MacMini you are right, the only view that works was the "shares" view.

rtv i've set the log to debug level started mediaportal go to the MyMusic started up with view "shares" that was working, delete all logs and change to view to "album artists".

and this was the log content after that:
