    With MP RC2 I experience frequent TV server crashes, much like described in these posts:
    https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/1-0-rc2-svn-builds-280/music-video-live-tv-tv-server-hangs-42948/
    https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/...-works-stable-first-start-after-reboot-42850/
    https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/1-0-rc2-svn-builds-279/mytv-hangs-after-watching-movies-44153/
    https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/...ice-quits-when-activated-epg-when-idle-44130/

    All crashes seem to follow the same scheme:

    - if I start Live TV immediately after Windows boot, everything runs fine, even for hours
    - if I boot Windows, then wait for some minutes before going to Live TV, TVserver has crashed
    - if I stop Live TV, then do something else in MP (Music, videos,...), I cannot return to Live TV, TVserver has crashed

    I have "EPG grabbing when idle" set. Now when I disable all EPG grabbing in TV Server Configuration, my system seems to run fine, so I assume that the effects have something to do with EPG grabbing.

    Can I do something to help find this bug?

    ---------------------------------------------
    Regarding the logs, this was what I did:

    01-09-2008 18:30 : Windows startup
    01-09-2008 18:33 : plugged in antenna cable
    01-09-2008 18:35 : MP started >> Live TV (no TV, server crashed)
    >>MP shutdown by Task Manager, >> Windows shutdown

    01-09-2008 18:40 : Windows startup >> MP started >> Live TV (runing fine)
    01-09-2008 19:24 : MP closed (Windows keeps running)
    01-09-2008 20:13 : MP started >> Live TV (no TV, server crashed)

    Any news on this?

    same problem here with RC2.

    RC1 worked fine.

    Just searched the whole RC2 Bugreports forum and this is exactly my problem. Waiting for RC3.

    hi,

    even with the actual svn release i have the same problems if i activated the "epg grabbing when idle". with this option activated the standby is not working correctly, too. after the wakeup the tvserver crashes, with this option deactivated the tvserver is working correctly after wakeup.
