[QUOTE="spar1grep, post: 551696, member: 68691"] Hello Murfix, Try setting the MP configuration to use the TV server's IP address instead and see if that works. If you use DHCP (thus your IP address changes) then try 127.0.0.1 (loopback address), never tried using a loopback address within the configuration though so it may not work. Sounds like to me your name resolution is no longer working, if you are entering a DNS name as the TV Server within your MP configuration then a DNS record has to exist on the DNS server you use. If you are using just a standard NetBIOS name then it could well be that firewalls are preventing NBT based name resolution. Thanks. Gary. [/QUOTE]
