tuners mysteriously deleted, config crashes

[Wakalaka]

Here's my config.exe.log ... don't know what caused this. I have 2 PVR150MCE tuners, using Zap2it. For what it's worth, SQLiteSpy shows the tuners in the gbpvr.db3 file. This DirectRecordingSource looks like it's killing things.

I run config.exe, click Capture Sources, then Add, and get the following:

See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

************** 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.

I also rebooted, compared my gbpvr dir to the backup I made 3 weeks ago, etc. Tried replacing GBPVR dlls from backup, removed gbpvr.db3 and config.xml, I got the same result that config.exe would crash on Capture Sources -> Add.

As a first step, try removing everything from the plugins directory to see if it helps. I notice you've got atleast one file in that directory that shouldnt be there (System.Data.SQLite.dll).

Sounds a lot like what I reported in this thread. Sub said he might ignore well known dll's in the Plugins directory in a future version.

I wouldnt rely on me being able to do that though (.net may resolve dependencies to those copies by itself), you better off not having them in the directory.

[Wakalaka]

I think those DLLs got there by me setting my output dir for the plugin I'm developing to gbpvr\plugins dir. I'll remove them and run a batch file to copy the DLL each time to test it. Will report tonight on if it fixes the problem.

From a different thread how to get VS to not copy your dlls.

This happened to me also when developing and I had 'Copy Local' set to true for these DLLs in the solution explorer. Solution Explorer, open up References, in the Properties dialog for each DLL, that setting can be changed to FALSE. (Then the DLL won't be copied to the target directory).

[fla]

One interesting thing I noticed later is that the xrecord installer does this:

Delete "$INSTDIR\Plugins\GBPVRBackendCommon.dll"

Someone obviously noticed that gbpvr can self destruct in this case so the xrecord installer goes ahead and deletes a file from the plugins directory.

Weeks ago I modified a number of xrecord projects on sourceforge to set "copy local" to false but I'm sure I missed a few projects.

Sounds a lot like what I reported in this thread. Sub said he might ignore well known dll's in the Plugins directory in a future version.

That fixed it. I searched for Capture Sources before posting, but maybe I don't know how to work the Search input field. On Google, you put " around a phrase so it finds those words in that exact sequence, e.g. "Capture Sources" returns posts with only Capture Sources next to each other.
