2 things
1. been trying to get MP working with with tve0.3 plugin on an epia-m based machine (windows XP Pro with 1Gb ram) - mp works great until you try and play any video, it looks like its about to play but no video is displayed (video or my tv) DVD player refuses to recognise a DVD is in the drive. Power DVD 7 is installed on this machine and it works perfectly. wiped machine clean and re-installed windows installed powerDvd7 then MP, MP SVN and then the TV plugin... same problem....
these are the log entries:
2007-09-02 19:59:49.866516 [ERROR][MPMain]: RTSPPlayer:exception while creating DShow graph Creating an instance of the COM component with CLSID {51B4ABF3-748F-4E3B-A276-C828330E926A} from the IClassFactory failed due to the following error: 80040273. at MediaPortal.Player.VMR9Util.AddVMR9(IGraphBuilder graphBuilder)
at MediaPortal.Player.RTSPPlayer.GetInterfaces()
2007-09-02 19:59:49.876530 [ERROR][MPMain]: RTSPPlayer: Exception while cleanuping DShow graph - Object reference not set to an instance of an object. at MediaPortal.Player.RTSPPlayer.Cleanup()
2. TV server after tvengine3-08-25-2007--01-23h--Rev15641 appears to be unstable - service stops responding after client tries to connect needing a re-boot (start stop service doesnt work - service stays in stopping state. Nothing is logged. MP with TV plugin is also a lot more stable, but again still suffers intermittent crashes - usually if you go straight to watching tv... for some reason if you play a dvd or music for a few minutes then go and watch tv its fine. Again no errors logged.
plugin from tvengine3-08-25-2007--01-23h--Rev15641 works fine - even with the latest cvs build of media portal. and meadia portal is more stable now compared with two days ago - still suffers occasional crashes in Vista
oh and loading MP can take a VERY long time (a minute or so) at the "loading windows plugins..." stage - on vista especially (and a quad core 2.6Ghz machine with 2 Gb ram).
In all cases tv server has three Novat-T cards in - 1 Gb ram running windows 2003 server. and clients have no tv card.
