Still get
"Unable to start timeshifting
and unknown error occured."
I guess my logs aren't going to look much different to those I posted in 17176. Let me know if you need anything.

The ieframe.dll message has gone.
And before you ask, I am running the same Mediaportal and TV server/plugin builds.

Your logs show that the TSWriter filter is not installed or registered properly.
At the command prompt in your TVServer installation directory type...

Regsvr32 /u TsWriter.ax

then...

Regsvr32 TsWriter.ax

Hopefuly that will fix it for you.

If the previous solution didn't work: try to compile mediaportal and the tv server yourself using CPU target that matches your pc (eg. x86 or x64). I had the same error since last December since then I am compiling mediaportal builds myself which solved all problems I had.

Thanks for the support but I'm sorry to say that didn't fix it, I tried it with an old tswriter (not sure if this should work or not) but I still got the error message.

I wouldn't mind doing that actually, but the thread (https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/building_mediaportal_visual_studio_2003_net-t235p2.html)on how to build it sounds outdated (as far as the last posts say). What are you using Damandan?
would Visual C# express 2008 do it?

Cheers,
Rich

I am actually using Visual Studio 2008, but it also worked in Visual Studio 2005. Just open the solution files (mediaportal.sln, TvLibrary.sln and TvPlugin.sln), set your compile settings to release and x86 and voila...if this doesn't work at once, then the error descriptions should be fairly easy to solve. Also I noticed that you need to build in a specific order. First Mediaportal, then TvLibrary and lastly TvPlugin, I think this is because of dependencies or something like that. Good luck.
