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?

    I do not know why this xml was in my theme folders, it must have sneaked in some time ago (years?). I simply removed the file. The Latest Media Handler plugin seems to be working as expected. I've had no lock-ups.

    I used to use the grabber but a few years back it disappeared on FreeSat DVBS. That is when I changed to EPG Collector. The extra benefit is that it collects from the Sky platform so it will give EPG for all the FreeSat channels plus the unencrypted movie channels on the Sky platform. It also allows me to pick the channels dedicated...

    I did a check of MP 1.36 x64 on Win11 and I can confirm, that the TV server correctly detects running MediaPortal.exe process.
