Server-Client model not streaming TV (1 Viewer)

[hehe29979245]

sorry for the simple questions. I tried searching, but did not find a post specific to my problem.

I am trying to get an experimental TV-Client setup working. Keeping things simple, there is one server and one client. Both use the latest releases that I downloaded today from this website. The sever and client are connect to one another via ethernet. The server uses Vista Ultimate x64 whereas the client uses Vista Home Premium x86.


I first tried to get a list of my local channels. However, I left Media Portal there and nothing seems to have come up. I wanted to see if live tv worked, so I cancelled the search. I told the client the name of my server, but when I went into My TV, it told me to enter the name or IP address of my server. The other option was "back". I tried changing the name to the IP address (192.168.0.199), but then the client froze. I restarted both computers and when I try to start the server software again, I got an error saying:

Any ideas on how I can fix this?

My System info:
OS: Windows XP Pro SP 3
CPU: Intel Celeron 3.06 GHz
Memory: 512 MB of RAM
Mediaportal: 1.0.2

TVServer Error log: Same as posted in previous query

Let me know if you or anyone have fixed this issue...
