Hey, I tried searching the forums and the wiki, and experimenting around, but I cannot seem to to get the client set up on another machine. I have set it up 'streaming', with the paramaters of pvr for the server (as that is the server's name), and \\pvr\gbpvr as the database share (and \\pvr\gbpvr is shared from the server, and points straight to the dir with the gbpvr.db3).
When I load gb on the client, it shows up, and the 'recording soon/recording next' screen appears, cycling through recording and pending shows. However when I click 'TV Guide', the machine's hard drive goes nuts, and GB freezes to the point where I have to CTRL-ALT-DEL and end gb. I tried waiting even hours (in case the guide was just slow to load), with no luck.
When I choose 'Live TV', I get the error: 'Failed to communicate with the Recording Service.'
I'm guessing I've set something up wrong... Can anyone assist me? And is there an official step-by-step guide to setting up the client?
Thanks
Brodie
EDIT: BTW both machines are using the newly released version as of yesterday.
