I have installed the latest TVServer and MediaPortal today. All works ok except TV3 and C4. They are both found during the scan but if you go to the TVServer Configuration, Manual Control and click [Start Timeshift] they come with "Unable to create/start graph".

Of course this works for all other channels.

Is anyone else seeing this?

I rebuilt my system with the SVN's from Thursday last week and all channels are working fine.

I find that sometimes, for some obscure reason, Media portal will scan and find the channels, but they are listed with incorrect frequencies etc. This will give the 'unable to start graph' error. If i manually edit the setting to match what Dvbviewer has for the channel, it seems to work.

I can't brain today. I have the dumb.

I've checked the configuration and as you say they were all wrong. I've fixed it, but even after restarting the service and a reboot it still won't work.

So better stick with dvbviewer until a working solution comes along...

Before tuning, did you use the XML file from cranz that he posted here when i had the same issues? It worked perfectly for me and Media Portal picked up all the channels with the correct settings.

I remember one of the tuning settings that dvbviewer doesn't give you for media portal is the channel identifier - even if all of the other settings are correct, having the incorrect channel identifier will also give the graph error. Might be worth getting these from someone else in your area running MP. Apart from that, I have no idea sorry.
