C:\ProgramFiles\Devnz\GBPVR\UTorrentLib.dll really should exist @ gbpvr/plugins/torrent. It might be helpful to zip and attach a full log.

Also you might try running and posting the output from WizDllInfoHelper. I suspect either you have two copies of one of the DLLs, or are missing one of the necessary DLLs.

Interestingly enough, UTorrentlib.dll is in plugins/torrent and does not exist in the GBPVR root.

I would have attached the complete log except that the error I provided is essentially everything other than the standard startup text.

I'll play around with WizDlInfoHelper and see if I can figure something out but I agree it seems something is misregistered or just missing. This is a pretty new install of GBPVR so I don't think I have much lying around. MovieWiz and other plugins using the Wiz* dlls work fine.

It appears that if I actually copy UTorrentlib.dll to the GBPVR root, it almost starts working...until it needs to load Newtonsoft.json.dll and looks for it in the wrong directory as well.

So that incorrect path appears to be the cause of the problem....

Not sure how to fix that on my end though.

I played with the WizDllINfoHelper app and eveything looked ok until I put an extra copy of that DLL in the app root to test it.

Ive been keeping a keen eye out for this one for a while! I use uTorrent almost daily, so this will be fantastic for me.

I'll be more than happy to give this a good test and give you feedback. I have a similair setup - direct connection to tv in living room, and two other MVPs in other rooms.

In terms of search sites, i pretty much rely on Isohunt for torrent links as it seems to search a good range of sites and i use VCDQuality to review those potential downloads.

On GBPVR i use the RSS reader and a Yahoo Pipes page to give me custom sort orders, ie filter only DVD Rips and order by rating, or only episodes of 'Lost' again ordered by seeders.

Thanks again McBain and Systemshark for this one, its made my day.

Can you zip the log files up please.... We're go to need to see what is happening exactly as it should be able to located the files???

Thanks

Thanks for the plugin, It looks really nice and a plugin that I would use.

I had one problem during the installation. The package couldn't overwrite the current WizUIhelper.dll (I think it was that file)

The current uTorrent download list doesn't show in the main view
But I can search Piratebay with the plugin.

Can you zip all the logs files please and attach them and I'll take a look

My uTorrent is installed in c:\uTorrent.
I'm using 1.7.7 stable
I dropped the WebUI zip in the uTorrent dir (also tried unpacking it to the uTorrent dir.)
I'm using IE6 as web browser

Do I have to update uTorrent to lastest beta and IE6 to IE7 ? ....
....to get the plugin to interact with uTorrent?

No it should work but we're going to need to see the logs !

Perhaps a task image for the plugin

Nice Image, we could use it. don't forget this plugin will in time support a compete Torrent Engine natively along side uTorrent and will search a number of torrent websites.... so we might need more that just one icon!!!

[systemshark]

That looks really good. I'll have to give it a try when I'm back in NZ.

Sub,

Cheeky Question : Can McbainUK and I get a new shared Torrent Sub project in 'Plugin and Skin Support' for our new toy !

Thanks !

[sub]

Sure. Done.

[McBainUK]

@MixMan IE7 is not required. Can you post the pvrx2.exe.log file?

@Gedanken Yeah, the wiki page is under construction. What OS are you running?

I got the plugin running, works great :-)

Downloaded the uTorrent beta that supports the WebUI plugin
Dropped the WebUI ZIP in the uTorrents dir.
Configured the uTorrent and plugin to 127.0.0.1 and port 8088 (I have another web server app running at port 8080)

Cheers and thanks for the good work
