Message: <blockquote data-quote="Mashenden" data-source="post: 536080" data-attributes="member: 17871">Interestingly, a recent post in the My Netflix thread describes what caused this all to happen. Apparently a situation where the Netflix authorization was hidden behind the full screen MP launch. The only way to exit was to stop the process. This is why I ended up uninstalling an otherwise operational MP and TV-Server and now can't get TV to work.Unfortuately I am no further along after trying both the "easiest way" and what I thought was the "reinstall the MP TV Plug-in" way.Re: the "easiest way" I installed the back-up using the MP Extension Installer. I noticed there were instructions that said "read the manual" but with no link to the manual nor never did it give me the option to view a manual. How am I supposed to read something that is not in a zip that I am executing nor presented by the Installer? I must be missing something. Despite not having the manual, I forged onward hoping it would be intuitive. At some point I thought the Back-up had been installed, but I have no idea, really. How would I know?Then I tried to reinstall the MediaPortal TV-Plugin 1.0.2, but apparenlty screwed up and reinstalled the MP TV Server by mistake, which in turn means I got to rescan the channels again. The result - Still the TV channels work in TV-Server, but not in MP.Next I will see if I can figure out how to really de/reinstall the MP TV plug in. I'll see if the manual explains that first, then ask.[Update - I found nothing in any of the places I looked (searched fourms, manual, good posts, etc) that would explain how to reinstall the MP TV plug in. Please give me a hint][Update 2 - I tried looking in the Extension Installer - I did not see anything that would let me uninstall the TV plugin.][Update 3 - I tried running MediaPortal_1.0.2_Setup.exe and then selecting "only download required components" but this showed all sorts of incorrect information regarding what was already installed so I backed out.][Update 4 - I tried running MediaPortal_1.0.2_Setup.exe and then selecting "Perform an advanced installation" but I was not comfortable with choosing between single seat, dedicated TV-sever (what I did when I reinstalled TV-Server) or MP client][Update 5 - I tried installing TV Series to see if that would overwrite the standard MP TV plugin - nope - Consequenlty I deactivated it.]I have to say it... This stuff is not intuitive... There, I said it <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /> Any suggestions? I really want this to work.[Update 6 - I uninstalled MP using the Uninstall icon in Start\All Programs\Team Mediaportal\Mediaportal\uninstall Medaiportal\. Now TV works - YES, but my plugins like My Netflix and Moving Pictures are gone - BOO. It looks like maybe my Backup Settings effort worked because there are such folders in C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Team MediaPortal\ but I have no idea on how to implement the backup... I have posted a question asking where to find the fm (f'ing manual) <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />][Update 7 - No patience to wait for a response from My Netflix - I reinstalled Moving Pictures using the .exe file and reinstalled My Netflix using the Extension Installer. I wonder why there are multiple ways to install plugins??? Seems like too much room for users to screw up - Im proof positive of this.]Next effort willl be to get the TV Guide to work.</blockquote>
