I tried to start MP 1.0 but the screen stays on 'Initializing DirectX'. I get an error message: VMR9 handler is outdated. Can anyone help me to fix this?

    I would assume that you are using Windows XP. Please install SP3, it has up to date quartz.dll.

    Hi...

    I have the same problem, upon launch of MP1.0 the screen stucked at init DirectX and I go to Windows Task Manager and discover VMR9 Handler is Outdated in application. I killed it and MP1.0 continued. It worked. I tried everything, and it worked. I can watch movie, TV, music etc.

    But after that first time fluke, When I start MP1.0 again it always crashed afterward, everytime I try it crashed. And I can't write the log, because the log crashed too. I waited for like 10 minute and the log bar thing just stuck half way. So sorry can't post log.

    Is there any other options beside XP SP3 ? My PC wouldn't work (like I have to re-install Win XP32 if I put in SP3) I had to roll back to SP2. It's an old PC I am using for HTPC.

    Later I am going to try windowsxp-kb927544-x86-enu.exe as another older thread suggested, will that work as an alternative to SP3 ?

    I am going to report back later when I have time to try it. But if there are other solution please help me. Thank you.

    Only XP SP3 (32) and Vista SP1 (32/64) are supported by Team MediaPortal. If you do any "workarounds", please don't request support.

    :D

    According to Wikipedia, Windows only uses code pages other than UTF-8 to support legacy (mostly 32 bit) applications and supports two code pages in addition to UTF-8 (OEM and ANSI). According to Microsoft, UTF-8 has been the preferred character set since 2019. If TV Server (or its import routine) were using UTF-8, then umlauts...

    Does anyone else have problem with long (several hours) pauses of TV broadcasts? If I pause and forget, I can still resume TV the next day, but if I try to change channel or stop, MP freezes. Only way to fix is to restart both MP and TV Service. Sometimes I need to restart PC It seems that TVServer cannot proprtly handle large...
