[QUOTE="dvgeek, post: 1128319, member: 144768"] [USER=144466]@HeloDog76[/USER] - Yes, it's been a log time and unfortunately my configuration is no longer the same. But let me see if I can help you. ARGUS TV is a bit particular about windows share permissions. Because you were till now running MePo in both server and client - they talked to each other fine and you had no issues. Introducing a third component - OpenElec - without MePo and only the ARGUS PVR plug in would require that OpenElec ARGUS PVR plug in talk only to the ARGUS on the backend. This brings the whole windows share authorizations into picture. Here is what I suggest: 1. On you backend:- [INDENT]a. Give the user 'Everyone' all permissions on both your 'TV Recordings' and 'TimeShift' folders. b. If you do not have a password set on your backend, please set one. If you want to be automatically logged into your backend when it boots (run 'netplwiz' from a command prompt, and uncheck the box that says users must enter a password to log into this computer) c. Do this from Control Panel -> Power Options for waking up from standby.[/INDENT] 2. On your OpenElec machine for the ARGUS PVR plugIn [INDENT]a. Give the IP address of your backend b. Give the username and password for the windows logon - do not use the guest setting c. Install the PlugIn 'Advanced Wake-On-LAN' and set it up to wake up the backend when OpenElec starts[/INDENT] You should be good to go. Let me know how this goes. As an FYI my current updated configuration:- (You'll notice that I have gone full ARGUS on the backend with 3 different clients) TV Tuners - HD HomeRun Plus ATSC only Tuners - 2 (giving me 4 tuners), one connected to a Winegard FlatWave antenna and another connected to a TERK HDTVA antenna. I have added an other HD HomeRun Extend (ATSC Tuner) and this is connected to yet another Winegard FlatWave antenna. TV Server - Intel Q8400, 60GB SSD boot, 2 x 1.5TB in RAID0 (Giving a total of 3TB) with Win 8.1 64bit ARGUS 2.3 Scheduler and Recorder with WebGrab Plus for EPG Living Room - AMD 5350, 2GB RAM, 100GB Laptop Drive, Win 8.1 64bit MediaPortal 1.10 Client only with Argus TV Client PlugIn. I needed ATSC Closed Captions, so I have CoreCC installed and enabled in Video Post Processing Bedroom - ATOM 330 ION, 2GB RAM, 1GB USB, OpenELEC x86_64 Kodi 15 isengard alpha build (for Closed Caption support) with Argus PVR enabled Office - Raspberry Pi B+, OpenElec Pi Kodi 15 isengard alpha build (for Closed Caption support) with Argus PVR enabled All clients are wireless connected (Livingroom @5GHz, Bedroom & Office @2.4GHz) [/QUOTE]
