Hello,

I've got an issue with TV3 and Timeshift. I installed MP (0.2.3.0 RC2) + SQL-Server + TV-Server (2007-10-04) + SVN (2007-10-04) from scratch (single seated config). All things seemed to be ok, server was running, database connected, both tv-cards recognized (airstar 2 and nova-t stick), channels found and than I tried to run the tv-client. epg-data was scanned, sound was ok but I got no picture. After a short amount of time, MP crashed.

After enabling and disabling the tv-cards in different orders (I got the very same results), I decided to uninstall MP and set up a TV2-Installation. I got the same issue, except in the case of running timeshift. With timeshift I got a picture, sound, epg and teletext. Turning of timeshift runs into the problems I've had with TV3.

Did I miss to install a piece of software? All things mentioned in the wiki are installed. The drivers are the latest. Did I miss to check a button?

The logs are attached

Without looking at your logs etc, just wanna say I had exactly the same symptoms. Tried everything from upgrading/downgrading drivers to swapping gfx cards.

Turned out that a simple BIOS upgrade solved everything in the end. >_<

Got the issue again with 0.2.3.0 RC3.

Got the latest available BIOS, switched to BDA-Driver for Airstar 2 (Beta from march, with the latest tv-server recognized the Airstar as ATSC) but this was not the point

Any hints? Any solutions?

Thanks for your replies,

it seems that filmerit did the trick. A Mainconcept H.264 codec was removed and now I get picture, sound and epg from both tv-cards.

Server/Client-PC is running as I supposed it to do but a client-PC cannot connect to the server. But this is a new problem. so I try to solve it by myself ;)

o.k. all things are working well. After disabling the server's firewall and starting sql-browser-service the client is able to access the tv-server and sql-database.

Again, thanks for helping

    Glad it worked for you, horrible things codec's, especially when you realise there can be 300+ on your system.
