I did that, I even did a reboot after uninstalling older MP2 and the described problem above shows with trying to install from scratch after that reboot.:(o_O
In the logs the errors appears while caching on X:\Downloads\
It seems the MP2-Setup is stored there. Try to move it to a folder on C you have admin rights on.

No improvement (and I wouldn't have understood any difference anyway, X: is just another hard drive used for any temporary storage, so my downloads folder is there and I do have full rights on it):

I moved the install files MP2-Setup.exe and MP2-Setup-Logging.bat from X: to C: (Desktop, to be precise) and tried from there - same result, see logfile.

No idea then, the logs said that caching on your x drive failed. You can not assume you have full access rights everywhere. Windows limits rights very often. @Brownard is the developer of the installer I think, maybe he can help.

    There are errors in your logfile regarding access to tmp folder:

    There are some possible causes for this error: Error 0x80070570: What It Is and How to Fix It

    First guess from my side is to check for enough space, check disk integrity and disable antivirus programs...

    Ah, old thread. Have to update to close the issue, it's a won't fix. Didn't follow up since that was low priority and just now tried one last time with same installer “14. 2022-10-17: Download - Custom Installer incl. TVMosaic” – and install did run smoothly. I unpacked the zip right in the download folder on X: and would claim I didn't change anything in respect to the prior situation besides the occasional restarts and OS updates, but nobody ever knows what has been changed backstage. Anyway, no success either: The new MediaPortal 2 Link on the desktop brings up the fullscreen splash screen and crashes after some seconds, the new as well MediaPortal 2 (x64) Link on the desktop acts same but crashes even faster. So I'll just give up on this one.

    Thanks anyway

    Hello,

    following problem. I'm using MP (2.4) with Mosaic as TVserver (from this thread). In the properties of Mosaic, buffer times of 3 min before start and 30 min after end are set. When I program a recording in Mosaic, these buffer times are taken into account. When I program a recording from the MP EPG, it enters the Mosaic recording schedule, but without the buffer times from the Mosaic properties.

    As an example, here are the EPGs in Mosaic and MP. I programmed the first football game 1900-2220 via Mosaic-EPG, and the second game 2220-0145 via MP-EPG (the Mosaic screenshot is before the programming was done, that's why the REC label is still missing in the EPG):

    20221128-104430.jpg

    20221128-104709.jpg

    When I look at the recording schedule in Mosaic, the difference becomes clear:

    20221128-105540_.jpg

    [This recently cost me the overtime field goal from Cowboys@Packers ... :(]

    Question: is there any setting existing (or planned) I can set to take into account Mosaic buffer times even when recording programming from MP-EPG?

    Thanks in advance
    Philipp

    I have checked the API documentation here: http://www.dvblogic.com/download/tvmosaic/tvmosaic_remote_api.pdf

    For schedule creation there are 2 attributes that are currently not covered by our API wrapper:

    XML:
    <schedule>
    <user_param/> - string optional
    <force_add/> - bool optional
    <margine_before/> - int optional, margin value in seconds, if -1 then default margin is used
    <margine_after/> - int optional, margin value in seconds, if -1 then default margin is used
    <priority/> - int, schedule priority: -1 (low), 0 (normal), 1 (high)
    <active/> - boolean, indicates if schedule is active
    ...
    Important ones are margine_before and margine_after. Because they are missing, the "technical default" is 0, but we need to pass a -1 to apply TvMosaic settings.

    A fix should be easy to add. I will check this.

    Good point, the pre- and post time handling was also missing on my list. I didn’t mention it, because the other points seemed without progress. Are they also still in focus? Would be so great to have the plugin with all features as full TVE alternative.

    I have added missing fields to schedule structure, with "-1" as default for margins. According to comments this should apply the configured pre- and post record margins of TvMosaic.

    Please extract the TvMosaic.API.dll into ProgramFiles\Team MediaPortal\MP2-Client\Plugins\SlimTv.TvMosaicProvider and then create a new schedule. Please report back if it works now, as I can't test here.
