This concerns 1.1.0RC4 (though may be have been present longer)
I have a single TV card with several tuners on it.
When I install MP and look in the TV Server config app these are correctly listed as cards 1-6 etc.
Recently I had cause to update the driver for the card (to fix a bug in tuning - rather than for the fun of it).
As manufacturers often do they had changed the name of the driver from something like BTG BDA driver to BTG3540, BDA driver.
When I installed driver, rebooted and went back into MP TV server config I now found I had something like 14 tuners listed - the old ones and the new ones. OK so I deleted the old ones and thought little of it.
Subsequently I tried to get DVB EPG grabbing working. It didn't so I looked at the EPG log. LOg said it was trying to grab epg date from Card 9. Obviously it wont manage that as I only have 6 tuners on the card + the standard MP tuners for internet radio etc.
So the act of changing TV card drivers can break MP database somehow. I'm not really sure about how that info is stored etc so I'm now in the process of doing a clean reinstall to fix the issue (hopefully).
Maybe this might explain the occasional - MP doesn't work type posts.
Hope this helps.
Have no logs as I'm in the process of full reinstall. Though I have recently posted logs on other issues and these might contain needed info.
