Hi all,
I know I am new here but I have been using MP for several months. I have bounced between SageTV, BeyondTV (which I purchased), GB-PVR and KnoppMyth for the past year.
Recently, MP started to chug a lot. A lot, severe slowness. A minute to bring up the program. Another minute or two to call up configuration.exe. Random registry errors when configuration.exe would crash when run and then I'd restart. Massive memory leak, while bringing up My TV-- the memory used would start at 70-100MB and go up 1.5MB/sec while frozen, until I would end the program.
I had a decent setup with MP. But then when 0.2.0.3 came out, i decided to do a complete reinstall rather than mess up an update...
Ayways, I tried several different things such as, 1) checking logs 2) uninstalling my Hauppauge driver, 3) cleaning the registry out and reinstalling to different folders... Nothing worked.
But I got a bright idea, reinstall .NET 2.0. So I did, and it worked.
There are several morals of this story, but I just wanted to highlight that some of the perceived (and realized) slowness of MP may actually be fixable. While I checked to figure out what I did wrong, I notice there have been posts (here and elsewhere) about this type of problem with seemingly no resolution.
So, please, your issues could be with Microsoft .NET rather than MediaPortal.
