[QUOTE="Germ, post: 216793, member: 62785"] [b]SchedulesDirect Plugin Woes[/b] I'm having difficulty getting the SchedulesDirect plugin to work. I'm new to MediaPortal, so I suspect that I may be doing something dumb. Unfortunately, I don't know enough to know what that might be. I've downloaded and installed tvengine3-12-21-2007--01-37h--Rev16693.zip. (I believe this is the version I want. I basically want whatever is stable, but there doesn't seem to be a "release version.") I then downloaded SchedulesDirectPluginTVE3-v1.0e.466.zip and placed the DLL into the TV Server's plugins directory. When I start the TV Server configuration program, I don't see SchedulesDirect under plugins. Looking at the TV Server log, I see: [CODE]2007-12-21 19:51:35.656250 [8]: Exception while loading ITvServerPlugin instances: SchedulesDirect.Plugin.SchedulesDirectPluginTVE3 2007-12-21 19:51:35.656250 [8]: System.InvalidCastException: Unable to cast object of type 'SchedulesDirect.Plugin.SchedulesDirectPluginTVE3' to type 'TvEngine.ITvServerPlugin'. at TvService.PluginLoader.LoadPlugin(String strFile) 2007-12-21 19:51:35.656250 [8]: Unable to cast object of type 'SchedulesDirect.Plugin.SchedulesDirectPluginTVE3' to type 'TvEngine.ITvServerPlugin'. 2007-12-21 19:51:35.656250 [8]: at TvService.PluginLoader.LoadPlugin(String strFile)[/CODE] Since I got the impression that the SchedulesDirect plugin was a close relative of the Zap2It one, I looked for that plugin in the log. It has similarly failed to load. Does anyone have any idea about what's going on here? [/QUOTE]
