Synopsis:

Hi

OK I will do my best to explain this.

I have the TV Server installed and working on my Office workstation P4 3GHz 2GB RAM 1TB HDD. I also have mediaportal 0.2.0.0 and the latest SVN installed on same machine.

Now that works fine.

Now here is the problem.

I have mediaportal 0.2.0.0 and the latest SVN installed on my MediaPortal PC and the TV Server Client software.

I run MP and goto TV and it asks me to setup the correct machine name for the SERVER. I do this and it says Server Found ok.

Now when I enter TV I can not actually get any TV.

I can pull up part of the TV guide but no listings in it!

I have tried several times but had to give up!

Anyone got any idea what I have done wrong?

Thanks


Yogiman!

I have exactly the same problem on my client machine and I have disabled the windows firewall on both the server and client machine. If I manualy start timeshifting on the server I can whatch about 5 second of it with VLC but then it stops.

Hi Nigtmare77,

What exactly you mean by "go services.msc"? I have exactly the same problem, and the client log says that it can't contact the database.

Thanks...

Jeah I got same problems.
I can view stream usin VLC only YLE TV1, YLE TV2 etc. So all yle channels is streaming ok but other channels wont display at all.
I have TT C-1500 with CI + CAM.
Also when I have server and client in same machine video streaming is awfull to watch.
Its stutters all the time and it is not viewable...
And if I change to other channel than YLE I cant see anything...
VLC in YLE channels is workin actually really good.
No stuttering and everything is fine...
Problems problems ...

EDIT:
Just noticed thst I havent tried this tvengine3-10-27-2006--12-18h--Rev11368.zip . I tried yesterdays zip...So dont know if there is some better things now...

Excelent, thanks jawbroken, that did the trick. Now I need some fine tuning as I have a few issues, but some of these are probably due to my config, my 5V is running at 4.5V!!! If I can prove this is good to the missus, then I can get a new PSU for Xmas and reserect my MSI MegaPC180 :) :) :) Then I'll need to get the remote working too.
