    Hello Jules :)

    Seems to be a problem with HTPCInfo. From the MediaPortal log:

    Perhaps that particular version is incompatible with MP v1.11?
    There's been an update recently...

    Note the warning to make sure you update all Micropolis' plugins at the same time.

    If anyone ever experiences the above, I found a fix. Removing and reinstalling MP-TVSeries fixed it. It must have gotten corrupted during the reinstall of MP. I also had to do the same with TRAKT which had some issues too that were not apparent at the time. All is well once again. :cool:

    @CyberSimian As I have just posted in the MP2 subforum I will stay with MP1 for the time being. Many thanks for all your very informative and detailed responses. I will take your advice and monitor the Scheduled recordings list for the discrepancies you have described. Cheers.
