I re installed Windows 8 last night then re installed a backup of MP via the backup plugin now when I try to play any sort of video MP just locks up and doesn't nothing. This doesn't happen when running in debug mode though. Here are my logs.

    Disable I.F.C.
    Make sure to get both plugins - process and window.

    Thanks man but that didn't work. I deleted both plugins but still MP locks up when trying to play a video. Even deleted all the non compatible plugins. Any other ideas?

    There was an error from the HTPCInfo plugin in the previous logs. Please try also disabling that.

    Tried that and still no luck. I'm not sure what's going. Was hoping to use MP to watch a few things before bed :(

    Seems it was my moving pictures data base. I guess it got corrupted some how. Which really sucks as I had a lot of custom categories. Any way I can repair that?

    Ok I guess I spoke too soon. The issue started backup. I had to install XBMC just to watch a few things last night because I got so frustrated with this. Here are my logs....

    Well I had similar issues after upgrading to win 8. The Mini-EPG and TV-Guide doesn't open and MP freezes. Complete uninstall, clean up and new install doesn't help.

    In the end I've formatted the whole system and set up Win8 from scratch. The only thing what I've restored from a Backup was the Tv-Server settings.

    It was a lot of work but now I've a perfect running System.


    BTW. Did you checked that all Drivers are uptodate? On my System Win8 replaced the Ati Catalyst driver with his own Driver.

    I've been using Windows 8 since the RTM was release I think in last August? and this is the first time I've had this problem with Mediaportal. I recently just re installed it a few days ago and this started happening :(

    I've looked through the logs myself and saw some errors but I have no idea what they mean.

    Any other ideas on what it could be?

    Hi, it looks like the Client's server connection settings got corrupted somehow and were reset, hopefully this is an easy fix.

In the menu on the left there may be an option Detach from home server, if there is click it and acknowledge the dialog that pops up...

    It is possible to have both MP1 and MP2 installed on the same drive (I have a test partition with just such an arrangement). However... The TV Server parts of MP1 and MP2 start when the system boots, and TV Server runs all of the time, even when it is not recording and live TV is not being viewed. If both TV Servers were active, they...
