This may be coincidental but I recently installed the 'Web Radio' and 'Weather' plugins. There was a warning from the Program Compatibility Assistant that 'This program might no have installed correctly'. With both installations I chose the 'Reinstall using recommended settings' option rather than 'This program installed correctly'. The plugins seemed to run OK but I started getting jerky video with TV3(HD channel) so decided to unistall both plugins using the uninstall.exe files provided.
Later I found that I was unable to launch NextPVR or the Recording Service.
The following two paragraphs are a summary of what I have tried.
A check showed that the Recording Service was not running. An attempt to start it using the Start/Stop NPVR Service option gets the following error
'Unable to start service: System.InvalidOperationException:Cannot start service NPVR Recording service on computer'.'. ---
System .Com,ponentModel.Win32Exception:An instance of the service is already running
--- End of inner exception stack trace ---
at System.ServiceProcess.ServiceController.Start(String[[] args)
at NCtrl.ProgramMain(String[] args)
I have reinstalled the patches "NPVR 2.2.6 Patches R2" and restarted Vista. Again the Recording Service was not running. An attempt to start the Recording Service using Control Panel/Administrative Tools/Services results in the error
'Windows could not start the NPVR Recording Service service on Local Computer. Error 1067: The process terminated unexpectedly.'
I don't understand what is going-on and short of a reinstall of NPVR I am out of ideas?
