MPTV-Series won't play with Moving Pictures (16 Viewers)

[AshDyk]

Hi,

I installed MP 1.1.3, and offcourse MP TV series. All works fine. When I install Moving Pictures, and import some of my movies, MP TV won't play anything. Mediaportal crashes, and the only way to exit it is to ctrl-alt-del it, and end the process. When I open the configuration and disable Moving Pictures, MP TV works as it should...

I installed all the updates, and reinstalled Windows (Windows 7 Prof. SP1) 2 times.

Thanks in advance!

Nothing in the logs indicates any error, so its really hard to tell.
Last log line is "Loading AR modes from "movies" section..."
Perhaps your mediaportal config is corrupt?

That is actually quite interesting. When I import my movies, on the last movie Moving Pictures hangs. When I click the red cross to close the import, configuration.exe crashes. I tried it with 1 movie, works all fine, no import crash. Then I opened Moving Pictures and tried to play a serie, works all great! Couldn't find anything on why it would crash, nothing in the logs too. I have 193 movies, that couldn't be the problem, right?

I don't think so, but I have no clue honestly.
Try setting everything to debug logging. It's kinda hard to tell.

Or try deleting your configuration and starting over?

When I remove the MovingPictures database, or just rename it, everything works fine. Except for the part that, off course, all my movies are gone . When I try to re-import them, exactly the same happens. I also tried to import the same folders on a different machine, where exactly the same happens. Could it be that it crashes on 1 of the foldernames? Seems weird, because I have my movies on different disks, and it crashes on both disks (when I try them seperate).

The last lines of the log are:

Doesn't look like there's anything wrong to me..

AshDyk, try disabling MediaInfo retrieval in MovingPictures Advanced Settings. This has helped some people in the past with import issues in MovingPics, mediainfo is scanned on initial playback of a file so there is possibly an issues with that when stuck in MovingPictures...just a guess but worth a try.

That did it! GREAT! Thank you very much
