Hi. Yesterday i suddenly experienced odd behaviour from my otherwise never-failing MP 1.1.3.
When switching from homescreen to tv, i only get a blue screen without any text, guide or TV preview.
I know the TV (signal) works, because i can test / see it via Mediaportal TV server configuration.
The only new thing done last week was installing aMPdroid and it's required files on the PC, but even after uninstalling them again, the 'blank' TV screen error persist.
Any ideas?

    Hi Vizar

    From your description I would guess that the connection between MP and TV Server might be broken, but I emphasize that is a guess - you haven't provided logs so I can't say anything with confidence...

    Sorry, my bad ;-) Like i saidI've experienced very few bugs in MP (all versions), so this is a bit new.
    Anyhow, here's the dump.
    Also, i forgot to mention that when entering the TV 'part' of MP, I cannot go back. It does'nt really freeze (since i can see the program run via task manager), but i have to force close MP via Taskmanager..

    Hi again Vizar

    I can't see any problems in your logs apart from continuous frame compensation in the TsReader log. That might indicate a codec configuration issue. Try using the Microsoft DTV-DVD Video Decoder and Microsoft DTV-DVD Audio Decoders, or alternatively the FFDShow codecs instead of the MPC HC ones...

    I suppose that you switch from MP main screen (screen with TV, Video, Radio, Weather, ... buttons) to TV home screen (screen with TV Guide, TV on, Recordings, Scheduled, ... buttons and TV preview area). In that case it seems that uninstallation of aMPdroid changed (or maybe removed) some files from skin. You can try change skin or install new skin. I don't know any procedure how to repair skin files except reinstalling MP.
