Everything had been working really well for me for a while until suddenly one week ago when I was going to watch tv, timeshifting did not work. When I pressed the timeshifting button I got an error message saying something like "could not initiate timeshifting - failed to connect to pin." If I don't enable timeshifting swiching between channels and cards works perfectly.
Once I have tried enabling timeshifting, tv will not start again. Sometimes I get error messages saying something like "Mpeg2 pins cannot connect" or something. (I don't get messages right now).
Now - the really strange thing is that I cannot find an updated error log. The error logs last entry is several days old and when I delete it a new one is not being created.
I had not made any changes to the setup when this started happening. One day before everything was fine.
I have tried restoring the computer to earlier dates. I have tried completely uninstalling and reinstalling MP but nothing helps. I have a dual boot setup with XP MCE but I have not even booted in XP since this started happening.
I have no idea how to fix this. Can somebody please help! Why don't I get an error log?

Hi everybody! I still have not solved the problem. Just wanted to add that yesterday I uninstalled everything. Threw away the Team Mediaportal folder and installed the 0.2.3 RC1. And.....NO CHANGE!
Still both my cards work perfectly if I don't enable timeshifting but if I do I get the error message "cannot begin timeshifting". If I after that try to enable tv again without timeshifting I get the message "cannot start tv. Cannot connect to MPEG2 pins" (or something similar).

PLEASE - does anybody have a clue?

/ola (So desperate I've even started using Vista MC for the time being. It works perfectly. Timeshifting and everything. So does DVB-viewer GE)
