[Updated 14 Jul!] MPExtended Service 0.5.4 (1 Viewer)

[Oxan]

MPExtended doesn't support access to network drives with non-Windows user accounts... So yeah, I'd try to add it as a Windows user first.

@lukjod: Yes, you have to ad it first as windows user with the same password.

Where to file a bug raport? First reinstall of 0.50 service starts, then stop then start it crashes.

Had some trouble with previous versions aswell so could be related.

edit:

right, it has an dependency of tvservice, but i use for the record to watch tv. Can this dependency get changed? I know i cannot watch tv then, but i don't want to. My cable provder has a nice app for the ipad to watch tv.

Thanks, but I seem to have problems using MP Extended on Windows 8 (I installed IIS Express 8 instead of 7). I tried:

1. Upgrading (I had 4.3 working after the Windows 8 Upgrade)
2. Uninstalling / Installing.

No reaction on the given ports and the config tool shows empty pages after configuration page (Project & Configuration pages are OK, the others are empty). I have set the Fonts to large, but I am not sure if that is the cause. Any ideas? What log files can I check (the log page is empty)?

iis express 8 can't be used with webmp at the moment...

OK, should I try the IIS Version or install IIS 7 on Windows 8? Any ideas?

Ah, you have the TvService installed but don't use it? Haven't thought about that, will try to fix that usecase in 0.5.1. You should be able to fix this for now by executing "sc config 'MPExtended Service' depend= " (with the trailing space) in a terminal, it won't recreate the dependency automatically.

I think your problem here is Windows 8. No one has tested it on Windows 8 as far as I know... Anyway, if you can upload the logs from C:\ProgramData\MPExtended I might be able to help you.

I don't think that'll make a difference.

Yes this is exactly what i have, wanted to use the tvserver but wasn't stable enough for my tuners. So switched to For The Record. Only problem now is i cannot update to 0.50 because of wifiremote 0.70, this doesn't seem to work on my machine, have black screen when watching live tv. Someone else also reported the same error Thats great

Looks like the WifiRemote problem is also because you use 4TR instead of the MP TvService. In any case, you can still manually downgrade to WifiRemote 0.6 after installing MPExtended 0.5, though certain MPExtended and aMPdroid features won't work then.

Here you are - thanks Oxan.

Strange enough, your logs don't reveal any major problems... Does http://localhost:8080/ work? If not, what do you get (i.e. connection refused, error page, connection timed out, blank page, etc)?

Also, the configurator problem seems to be an access problem. Try to give everybody read/write access to C:\ProgramData\MPExtended.
