Community skin 2.1.2 - Object Recefence not set to an instance of an object

[mmatheny]

This is a summary of several posts I made in the Community Skin support thread:
==================

I am getting this everytime I launch the program with the commandline to go to live tv, and I press the Menu key - the live TV image is missing. I dismiss the error, go back into live TV and press Menu and all is well. It only occurs on the first time I go back to the Menu from Live TV.
==================
OK, installed the 2.1.2 version last night, and yes, I get it with the Blue theme, the MCE theme and the Avance theme. It's like it needs to initialize something by going into the Live TV via the menu before it will show the live TV preview. This occurs when I blast right into Live TV with command line parameters, and after the first occurance it goes away. I will try to test tonight by just starting GBPVR and selecting Live TV, the hitting the Menu button to see if it occurs that way also. (I am using the Hauppauge 45 button remote
=================
OK, changed to the default Blue skin in GBPVR (NOT Community) and this still happens no matter how GBPVR is started - with or without command lines- it's ALWAYS after the first time I go in to LiveTV and then press the Menu button on my Hauppauge 45 button remote. And there is no Live TV preview.

zip and attach the logs and I'll take a look.

Here's the logs - hope it's what you needed.

Can you tell me exactly what time the error occured so I know where to look in the logs? If you dont know, then reproduce it, note the time, then repost the logs.

[mmatheny]

OK - around 8:16 PM

Its not entirely clear from your original post above, but does that happen when you launch GBPVR.exe with no command line parameters, and using the default blue skin?

[mmatheny]

Yes - and it ONLY happens the first time I go into LiveTV (no matter how, either by pressing TV on the remote or scrolling and selecting LiveTV, or command line) and then press the Menu button. And it happens on the Default Blue screeen and any of the Community screens I have tried.

I'm not really sure. I'm not able to reproduce it here, and I've not seen any other reports of it.

Can you reproduce it with the blue skin, no command line params, then zip and attach the logs again? Maybe something will stand out for me.

I was having a similar issue last year. Upgrading my Hauppauge drivers solved it for me. Food for thought.

flyswatta - I will look at the driver when I get home. Sub - will do when I get home, but will try the driver suggestion first.
