This is about installation of the upperly mentioned TV-Server Engine. I tried several of the SVN Builds but all showed the same problem.
When I install the TV-Server with Setup.msi I get the following error message:
"The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with this package. The error code is 2869."
I search the web for the reason of this and found the following:
"
According to the Windows Installer documentation, error 2869 means "The dialog [2] has the error style bit set, but is not an error dialog."
=>
This indicates that a dialog in your setup is improperly authored. But it may not the root cause for the failure. I guess your setup is encountering whatever error, and when it tries to display the error message it detects a problem with the error dialog. So I'd suggest you generate a verbose log of the install to find the root cause:
msiexec.exe /i your.msi /L*v c:\logfile.txt
And of course: fix the dialog.
"
=> I did this with Setup.msi and included the file logfile.txt.
I extracted some relevant lines:

But the root cause for the FatalErrorForm is still unclear to me.
I followed the instruction of the tutorial videos for installing the TV-Server and I also installed "Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 SP1 Redistributable Package (x86)".
I also did several reboots. And after some failures I started to install MediaPortal 0.2.3 RC2 and the lastest SVN Build of it. But it still doesn't work.
Is Vista at the moment still supported???
Thank you for your help.
