    Just disabled the mytv series and Live TV back to normal performance, no issues, interestingly scheduled recordings seemed to have carried on through this downtime.

    Also films (moving pictures) I can find and play without a problem.

    Question is - how do I fix the mytv series issue?

    Really grateful for your advice, fantastic.

    Hi ben 1210,
    You should try to repair your tvseries DB.
    The database is found in the following folder:C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\database.
    I don't use the tvseries plugin , so what I'm going to suggest is under prejudice.
    -you can try to repair the DB like you dit with the gentle config file.
    -If that is a no go, you can try to remove the database,then you should do a rescan of your tvseries.
    -otherwise you must uninstall and reinstall the tvseries plugin.

    Fantastic.

    I went into the My TV series database, right clicked, properties, previous version, rolled it back to last weeks restore point and......

    Everything is fine again!

    Hi,

    check also "C:\ProgramData\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\Gentle.config" both gentle config must be the same (The DefaultProvider line must be the same).
    Is there a MediaPortal.exe.Config file (C:\Program Files (x86)\Team MediaPortal\MediaPortal\MediaPortal.exe.Config

    Thanks, this worked for me

    Why is this happening, can anyone help pinpoint.

    firstly we need to know how you shutdown MP, via sleep\hibernate, via powerscheduler or power button, all these little variances effect everyone, so please help us to help you.

    Thanks

    Hi Ray,

    What was the problem of Rexdog, I do not know, he just confirms that his problem was solved.(We can ask for his logs @rexdog )
    The problem by ben1210 was that his wife did a hard reset after mp was frozen while watching TV.
