MyTV: no channels in channellist (mini-epg) (1 Viewer)

[yahoodee]

error description:
1. start mediaportal
2. go to MyTv
3. go to channels
4. - empty window displayed -

or

1. start mediaportal
2. go to MyTv
3. turn on Tv
4. go to Fullscreen
5. press return
6. - empty window displayed -

I tried myself to get rid of this problem but the only thing i've found in the error.log was this:

2007-09-24 22:30:52.890625 [ERROR][MPMain]: OnMessage exception:System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
   at TvDatabase.TvBusinessLayer.GetNowAndNext()
   at TvPlugin.TvMiniGuide.FillChannelList()
   at TvPlugin.TvMiniGuide.OnPageLoad()
   at MediaPortal.GUI.Library.GUIWindow.OnMessage(GUIMessage message)

my setup is:
an htpc with mp+svn and tve3 + sql 2005 express as described below. (called client/server 1) (this client doesn't work)
and for testing my desktop-pc with the same mp version but without tve3/sql. (called client 2) (this client displays the mini-epg properly).

the channel can be read from the tvservice/db, because they're getting displayed in the normal epg, and via this i can also watch/switch the channels...
also the log-files of both mp clients says this:

2007-09-24 22:30:53.968750 [Info.][MPMain]: get channels from database
2007-09-24 22:30:54.203125 [Info.][MPMain]: found:148 tv channels

2007-09-24 22:30:54.343750 [Info.][MPMain]: loaded 8 groups

this problem occurs on my singleseat installation with tve3.(client/server 1)
when i connect a second pc (client 2), then the mini-epg gets displayed with all channels/groups.
it doesn't matter if i go to mytv->channel or mytv->tv on->fullscreen->press return for mini-epg.

but only my client/server 1 gets the NullReferenceException.

also a complete reinstallation of my mp client (deinstalled tve-client and mp then deleted manually the mp folder, then installed fresh'n'clean mp->svn->tve-client) doesn't solve this problem.

thanks in advance

What's your country - what operating system language do you use?

 

[yahoodee]

hi rtv,
sorry for the missing details.
i updated my previous post/profile.

thx

Yeah, having this too. TVE3-SVN 15994 working, from SVN 16000 not working.

EDIT: Yahoodee: Did you do a clean install or did you use an old DB? And maybe try SVN 15994 if its working for you too?

 

[yahoodee]

wich svn are you talking about? client or server?

i did a clean install of all compoments. i think the client version is not the problem. my desktop-pc with remote tve connection (client 2) doesn't have this problem with svn 16014.
i tried some version of 158** and was the same problem i think... =(

 

[The_Stig]

I am always updating both Client und Service.

Seems to be a problem only for some users-groups. Look here: https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/showthread.php?t=28469
