Hi guys

I'm hoping someone can help me, my live TV has stopped working!

every time I try to watch or record TV it says "no free card"

I haven't changed anything except do windows update.

I have attached logs

Regards

Glen

    Hello again Glen

    The problem is that the TV service has not detected your tuner.

    Please try restarting the TV service:
    1. Open TV Server configuration.
    2. Go to the "manual control" section.
    3. Click stop service... then start service.
    If that solves the problem, it tells you that your computer boots really quickly and you need to delay the start of the TV service so the tuner and network drivers have enough time to load fully. This can be done in the Windows service control manager.

    If it doesn't solve the problem, check for your tuner in the Windows device manager. If it is not listed, that means Windows has not detected the tuner and explains why the TV service cannot detect the tuner. Try restarting the PC.

    I tried the stop/start to no effect:(
    On closer inspection of your log files, it looks like the tuner has been MIA for coming up on 3 days. Odd. You'll probably need to do a full shutdown and boot (not a restart) to power-cycle all the hardware and allow the BIOS and motherboard to redetect the card.

    Hi guys

    The device manager showed the card with a code 52 error.. Unsigned driver! So for fun irised the update driver online option and bugger me it worked!

    Now I know it's not supposed to and when I do the next windows update it will probably screw it up again but I will keep my fingers crossed:)

    Thanks guys for trying to help.

    Regards

    Glen

    The only configuration that is certain to work is when the MP client and MP server are from the same release. It is sometimes possible to use MP clients from a release that is different to the MP server, but whether it works depends on the specific changes that were made between the two releases. -- from CyberSimian in the UK
