* removed vcredist_x86.exe from package: i think installing those things should be done by deploytool.
* splitted the install and uninstall code for client and server in macros: This way it is possible to Add/Remove or Reinstall features (here only client and server)
* if mediaportal is not found, it is not possible to select the client plugin
* it is not possible to click on "next" without activation of minimum on component
* uninstall removes all features (server AND client), use add/remove to remove just one component
added: copy the setup file to install folder as "add_remove-tve3.exe"
added: add registry entries to show the Add/Remove buttons in control panel\software, which starts "add_remove-tve3.exe"
added: Launching setup with parameter for silent mode /S checks on start if tve3 is already installed, if so it uninstalls it and then continues with installing full automatically.

Here are my todays DVB-S Astra 19,2° testing steps:

- MP starts on EinsFestival - no sound - wait one minute - no sound
- change to ARD - works
- wait some minutes, then try to stop and playback some seconds later - works (playback is stuttering the first second)
- go to the end of timeshifting - no sound - wait one minute - no sound
- change to ZDF - works
- try to go 30 sec back - nothing happens
- try to go 15 sec back - first 10 sec sound stops, then the picture freezes but sound works, 10sec later playback works again correct
- go one minute back - works fine
- go to the end of playback - first 10 sec sound stops, then the picture freezes but sound works, 5sec later playback works again correct
- change to EinsExtra - first 30 sec sound stops, then the picture freezes but sound works, 30sec later playback works again correct
- change to EinsFestival - works
- change back to EinsExtra - works
- close MP

My Logs:

I get no channel logos when playing back recordings. Live TV is fine and I see the correct logos in recorded tv, but when I start playback and press info, it's black where the logo should show.

DVB-T EPG idle grab hard locks the OS (w2k and xp) when enabled. VISTA 32 is OK.

It is difficult to show logs as the system freezes and a reboot is required by the time the system has restarted etc the logs are backup and don't show anything.

Tested with DVB-T grab dissabled and all fine, logs attached showing no problems. test all day with hibernation etc and recordings.

I think I have the same problem with DVB-S. While idle EPG is grabbed (and hangs) and when I try to turn TV back on mediaportal freezes and I have to reboot.

I attach the logs (tswriter logs not included as they are 1,6MB zipped, let me know if you need them).

Problem tuning with NOVA-CI

I've got a Hauppauge WinTV NOVA-CI and every time I try to do a scan on Hotbird the program crashes.
I've also got a DVB-T card that works without problem.
Any help is appreciated!

Server: AMD Athlon Sempron 3200+ Gigabyte GA-7V, 1GB DDR, 1x WD IDE 250GB, Hauppauge NOVA-CI DVB-S, Pinnacle PCTV 300i DVB-T
