Single seat server/MP PC.

Whenever my machine comes out of standby or powers on for the first time, when I goto TV and turn it on it sits for about 15 seconds and then gives the error "Unable to start timeshifting / Unable to start graph" When I clear this message and try to turn on the TV again it works fine.
I've got a delay of 35 seconds for detecting the tuner card setup in the server. I've tried with the re-initialise option in Power Scheduler both enabled and disabled with the same result.
MP is setup to wait for the server before it runs and also to restart when coming out of Hibernation.
I've had an issue where on two separate ocassions, scheduled programs have not recorded. The machine has started, run, saved the program info but there is no data file. (Unforetunately I've not got a log of this yet) I'm wondering if the two issues are linked?

Hi DrMopar

I've got the same problem with my installation. It came up with the SVN / TVServer from 15.03.2008. I did not happen with older releases (e.g. 5.3.2008).

I've upgraded to SVN 18234 but still have the same issues. Any help appreciated.

Check the connection string: Password=dodge;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=sa;Initial Catalog=TvLibrary;Data Source=HTPC\SQLEXPRESS; ---> System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Cannot open database "TvLibrary" requested by the login. The login failed.

Check if sql browser is running (set to automatic), if is is, then try changing to a fixed IP address for server, looks like the connection is failing.
