[QUOTE="mm1352000, post: 1216493, member: 82144"] I did say to restart the TV Server (ie. the tvservice Windows service installed for MediaPortal TV support) after rebooting the PRIME. Here's a tip for avoiding hard reboots... You needed to restart the TV Server [I]service [/I]to solve the problem. The existence of [URL='http://www.techrepublic.com/blog/windows-and-office/how-windows-8-hybrid-shutdown-fast-boot-feature-works/']hybrid shutdown (AKA fast boot)[/URL] means that "rebooting" by selecting shutdown on the Windows power menu - followed by pressing the power button again to start the system - won't actually restart Windows services. This would explain why your regular reboot was ineffectual. It shouldn't have been necessary to resort to a "hard reboot" though. Instead you could have: [LIST] [*]Restarted the single service (this is what I was recommending) through TV Server Config manual control, net start/stop tvservice etc., OR... [*]Restarted Windows (ie. select the restart option on the Windows power menu). [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
