unhandled exception at first startup

[torsten]

Hi everyone,

I am new here and also new to GB-PVR and immediately run into trouble...

(1) Background:
I do have a PIII-900 System with 720 MB RAM and 320 GB HDD, old Nvidia TNT2, Medion 9717 (KNC1-SAA7134-derivative) and want to use the machine in the future as home server (files, printers, fax, scanner) and PVR. I am aware that the machine is not at todays level of computing power - however Interviceos DVDrecorder runs fine and thats all I need in terms of functionality.
Now it would be best to also have a beautiful GUI to connect the box to the TV as DVD-Player, Video-Player and whatever. Thus I am currently screening the various free media center packages.
So far - GB-PVR seems to be the most customizable one of those with analogue support (via the WDM-plugin) and which do not explicitely say to run only on 2GHz+ machines.
So - tried to instal land test it - et voila - an error:
I did install the MDAC 2.6 and .Net-Framework 2.0 from M$ and the GB-PVR in c:\programme\mediacenter\gbpvr. After the wizard ends, it tries to start the config program. Which never sees the screen but instead throws an unhandled exception - Details text at the end of this message.
When I hit Quit - ok, its over. When I hit continue it starts the config program with lots of empty pull-down-fields (nothing to select there) - and comes back all the time with the same style unhandled exception.

Now I need help: I am not familiar (yet) with the .Net-error-message-system and how to analyze those. What is running wrong.
Just deinstall/reinstall of GBPVR does not help - same message again.

Thanks for any help!!!

Torsten

PS: just installed the original 0.99.05-Package - no langaue support or plugins.

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.

[K.S.]

try a reinstall of the .NET framework, a current version of DirectX won't hurt either.
regarding analog support via WDM-Plugin: your box is way to slow to handle that (software encoding alone might barely work, but if you want to watch something at the same time...) and you won't get support from sub in regard of that plugin (many users are having problems to get that working). if you want to use analog, get yourself a supported hardware encoder card (i.e. hauppauge pvr250), otherwise if digital (DVB-T/S) is an option, get a digital capture card which is known to work.
