various problems (freeze, crash) (1 Viewer)

[mrkaras]

I know its beta but it has bean for a while and I thought it would be somewhat usable. I will try to list as many problems as i can think of, what are known bugs and what is a problem with my setup?

- closing mediaportal (client) crashes
- watching HD channels doesn't work
- any error (no signal etc) causes client to freeze either permanently or for several minutes
- on startup I needed to restart the TV service to make it work
- the stream started by the client of the server machine (single seat style) in not visible on other machines (is that normal?, will watching a channel on the server PC and another client use 1 or 2 tuners?)
- accessing a network stream appearers to cause the server display to go back and play a timsliped piece
-turning off one client(TV on button) turns off all clients.
- sometimes the client can't be turned off (imieiatly back on again)
- changing channel while recording changes channel and cancles the recording
- 2 schulded recordings at the same time, one endt the other never ends, ended up with 4 recorders running for the same program (all manualy started)
- it appares that channels can be re-tuned (de-tuned) with no user input?!

maybe just a few settling in issues but as it freezes and needs to be killed off every time I select the wrong item it gets very frustrating.

I have updated the server/plugin to the latest version
update:
- watching HD channels doesn't work was caused by the server setup detune issue, added to the bugs forum. the issue still exists. the issue is that editing a channel will cause the tuning info to be changes even if you don't touch it.
-I still can't turn the network client off only while the server client is running the same channel as the server client
- the recording works properly (I a change listed to fix this too)
