MVP - Loading application...

[Kristan]

Got an MVP and gbpvr, however when trying to get the two to play together, the MPV just loops between connecting to servers, loading application, then hangs for a bit, seems to soft reboot and then detects network settings, you get the "press ok in 3 seconds to enter setup" message, then goes back to connecting to servers, loading application....

I've tried replacing dongle.bin with the one from my hauppauge CD, I've tried all 3 versions in the drop down in the config menus, no joy.

If I run the haupaguge services though, everything works fine :confused:

Time for bed, been trying to get this working for 7 hours now (some of that was weird switch problems, but that's a story for another day!)

Any help much appreciated!

This is known to happen with the built in TFTP server on networks that loose a lot of UDP packets. The next version has a better TFTP server included which should resolve this.

In the mean time, you may need to either let the Hauppauge software do the initial boot of the MVP, or install a third party TFTP server.

Kristan, you didn't mention which MVP rev you have, I sent you a PM with access to other dongles, perhaps one of these "might" work better than others, as per this thread. Let me know how you get on.

Yes, I should have mentioned that also. The newer MVPs dont like the old dongle files.

LOL, you're falling down on the job mate...

I've posted on the main MVP dongle thread but it seems sorted now, I think it was DHCP related, I think my smoothwall didn't like the way it requested an address or something, after I added a static reservation it seemed fine. Thanks for the help guys!
