I just installed the new version, and tried to use the new UI by running pvrx2.exe. This seemed to cause my computer to lock-up. The clock in the taskbar stopped incrementing(I have it set to display seconds). However, the mouse pointer still moved, and I was able to bring up taskmanager with CTRL-ALT-DEL.

Taskmanager showed two processes named pvrx2.exe were running; one using about 8 meg of memory and 0% cpu, and the other using about 45 meg of memory and 0%-2% cpu. There was no GB-PVR UI displayed, although there was a PVRX2 icon on the taskbar.

The only way I could get my computer to return to normal was to use taskmanager to kill the pvrx2.exe process that was using more memory. If I kill the other pvrx2.exe process, it starts back up by itself. I tried stopping the GBPVR Recording service, and that killed the pvrx2.exe process, as well.

I rebooted the computer, and the pvrx2.exe process is being started automatically, with the GBPVR Recording service.

Have you got the MVP servers set to greater than one? Sounds like you're running an MVP server in the background (the second pvrx2).

No, it is set to autostart one.

If you autostart an mvp server that would be normal.

psycik is correct (though he meant 'more than zero'). This instance you're seeing is the MVP server. In the past it always ran a copy of GBPVR.exe for this purpose, now it uses PVRX2.exe.

Hmmm...maybe that is why the MVP Tray Icon Plugin is not working?

Maybe. Sorry, I've never tried this plugin, so not really familiar with how it works.

I am having a problem where live-tv seems to be constantly running; when I got up this morning the drive was full.

Is there any way to configure the MVPs to run gbpvr.exe rather than PVRX2.exe for testing purposes? I wonder if it's anything to do with my config - any ideas?

This config.xml value sets the server name. The alternative is GBPVR.exe

<MVPServer>PVRX2.exe</MVPServer>

In XP, I've noticed many times that I have more than 1 instance of PVRX2 running at the same time. I've not seen this in Vista.
And sometimes I remove them in XP and another one pops up to takes it's place. So far, I've not noticed a hit on my system so I've not been worried about it.
