I spent a lot of time trying to figure out why my MVP would crash every time i tried to start video on it, and finally found the logs and noticed this:
2007-09-12 18:44:48.671 ERROR [7] Media stream thread caught exception: System.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException: Could not find a part of the path 'C:\Temp\MVP000DFE225D9C2.mpg'
From what I understand a temporary .mpg file is created in Temp for the MVP to stream from. I didn't have a C:\Temp folder so since the software couldn't create a file there, my MVP would just crash and reboot. I created a Temp folder on the root of my drive and now the device works perfectly.
Do you think you could put a check into future versions to make sure that users have a C:\Temp folder when running GBPVR? This was just a really frustrating issue to diagnose and it would be a good idea to prevent other users from having this same issue.
