When I start MediaPortal and switch the TV on, everything works perfectly. Channel Switching is possible. But when I switch TV off and on again, MediaPortal says
Code:
"unable to start timeshift"
"unable to create graph"
. So I have to close MediaPortal and stop the TV Service in the command line by entering
Code:
"net stop tvservice"
, start it again by
Code:
"net start tvservice"
and start MediaPortal again, it works perfectly again.

It is very annoying so I could need some help in solving this problem.

I've thougt about a possible solution. A script could monitor if a file from the timeshift directory is deleted and then restart the tv service. Is there anyone who could write this script for me??
