[QUOTE="Basz, post: 78271, member: 13721"] After having worked flawlesly for about 3 months, I was starting to regain faith in mediaportal as the ultimate Home Theater. Lots had happened; total freezes, inability to discover and/or use my well-supported tunercard, total and sudden loss of channels, recordings resulting in 2kb 'big' moviefiles, etc... But this was al in the past. Mediaportal has come a long way and since the last releases, things really started to get better and better. And with the upcoming of the everpraised TVengine version 3, I decided to forgive the team and accept any shortcomings for now and just wait for the ultimate leap since my experience with mediaportal. Then things started to go wrong; A skin for MP was released, a very well promising skin. A skin that would help mediaportal loose it's geeky impression, a skin that finally made mediaportal look like what a user would expect from an application called so. But suddenly it dissapeared. Leaving a huge gap behind. Numerous refreshing attempts further, I was disappointed to discover the miraculous 'tvengine3' got postponed, and postponed and postponed. Not beeing released up to today. My patience was running out slowly... How great my disappointment was when i found out yesterday, the guide info in TVguide was suddenly missing :-S. Still trusting in mediaportal's possibilities and strengths, I immediately blamed my girlfriend for pushing the 'wrong' buttons. But to no expense, she didn't do it (no really, she didn't even touch it the days before..). A little 'study' into SQLite, revealed the errormessage noted in the title of this post. I was surprised. A mechanism always having worked fine (slow, but fine) suddenly, with no reason for me to find whatever, stopped working completely. Because of a corrupt database. (an event which would indefinitely have got me fired if I pulled a stunt like that with my employer's numerous databases) It wouldn't be such of a big problem if the database in this matter (tvdatabasev21.db3) wouldn't contain a whole lot of other data, somewhat or some not, related to EPG data. The result of this database failing is as follows; - Recordings are inaccesible - Scheduled recordings are all lost (and that were a LOT) - All channels are lost completely. After my hard work of perfecting channelicons and such things, this is a great loss too. - EPG import has to be re-configured completely, because of the disappearance of all the channels. - My confidence in mediaportal has shrunken to 0. (And the team's attitude contributes to that for a major part too) Don't get me wrong, this is not (intended to be) a flame. The failing in the tvguide made me just want to write down how I experienced the proces from beeing a mediaportal-lover to becoming the dissapointed person I am today. I suggest the team does with this info what it likes to it's own best interest. So much for this loooong story, back to the original intent of this post. My question; could anybody help me and repair my database so I can continue to use mediaportal as the main attraction in my living room [u]and[/u] substitute for any VCR's, paper guides, etc I had ever had? Thanks in advance. [/QUOTE]
