Hi,

I'm unable to start recordings since a few SVNs ago. When I click record during fullscreen live tv watching nothing happends, I just hear the "click sound".

The following is shown in error.log:

2006-06-26 19:13:20 2006-06-26 19:13:28 OnMessage exceptionystem.InvalidCastException: Unable to cast object of type 'MediaPortal.Dialogs.GUIDialogMenuBottomRight' to type 'MediaPortal.Dialogs.GUIDialogMenuBottomRight'.

I've tried both BlueTwo and the MCE skins with the same result.

Hi,
Seems like you have to reset the remote to default, if that doesn't help reinstall MP again.
This can happen if a SVN it's bad.

This may be a stupid question but how do I reset the remote?

Hi,
Open MP Setup -> Remote -> MCE & then "Defaults"

Tried defaulting the remote, it didn't work.

Also did a fresh install with the same SVN and it still doesn't work.

Looks like a bug to me

Hi,
This works here with latest svn, did you install to a clean MP folder without old files?

You are using a MCE remote?

Anyway
Will try a fresh install tomorrow to see if I get the same problems..

Solved after 5 reinstalls using the latest and greatest SVN.

Crap error handling Would've appreciated a nicer error message.
