[QUOTE="Andrew H, post: 864138, member: 56239"] I noticed my MediaPortal 1.2.3 had crashed last night. I'd had issue with a series "Touch" (which in tvdb is called "Touch (2012)" ) when the first time I recorded a show it would crash MP when I tried to play it even through Recorded-TV! The same file would play fine in MPC-HC. In fact, if TV-Series tried to fetch the series from tvdb it would crash MP or the TV-Series plug-in (when I'd open it from MP-Configuration/Plug-Ins). Back to last night - I removed all (subsequent) Tough files (.ts & .xml) from the folders TV-Series scans. (Not sure whether this is still of interest or not.) Then I'd run a TV-Series config and import files, when it gets to the third screen (where it downloads data just before the FINISH button) it would crash! Looking at the TV-Series.log it was accessing a tvdb.com apikey... something about getting a weekly update .zip file as the last log entry ??? I'll post logs later tonight but wanted to pass this "finding" on right away. I'd noticed tvdb being slow recently but would they have altered their API KEY? The fact that TV-Series crashes in its own configuration is tell-tale and clears any interaction (in my case) with the core MP code because MP crashing when TV-Series is ENABLED is driven by TV-Series crashing, making MP look as if it has crashed. DISABLING TV-Series allows MP to run fine albeit no TV-Series GUI to play TV shows. [/QUOTE]
