[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1130862, member: 82144"] To where? What makes you so sure it is a bug in TV Server? Could it not be a bug in the C++ runtime or other? I say this because at this time it feels like you don't have much proof to back up your claim. One way to start would be to find a procedure that enables you to deterministically reproduce the problem. Another way would be to attach a debugger to the service. Presumably this would help you to get more information about the cause of the crash. This line should ensure that the TV service catches and logs any managed exception that brings down the service: [URL]https://github.com/MediaPortal/MediaPortal-1/blob/master/TvEngine3/TVLibrary/TvService/Service1.cs#L89[/URL] Since there is no logging you might guess that either the log entry is not flushed from a buffer before the crash occurs... or more likely [in my opinion], something unmanaged or outside TV Server's control is the root cause of the trouble. Windows and/or the VC++ runtime is responsible for logging such crashes in the event log. Who is the "you" that you are referring to? If you mean me then the answer is no. As already mentioned, I have no working and compatible version of TV Server to test with. I also have no time... and honestly, also no desire/interest. IMHO if you want this problem to be resolved then you will need to take the initiative to make it happen. Regards, mm [/QUOTE]
