Trying to run mvpmcx2 on my PCH,

Here is the output from mvpmcx2 when trying to watch livetv

Code:

Just to confirm - you get the menus etc, but video playback doesnt work? If so, do you have the web server and NMT stream enabled on the Misc2 tab of the config app?

[mvallevand]

Your client side looks ok so could you zip and upload your logs, from "C:\Program Files\devnz\GBPVR\logs" ?

My first guess would be that you are trying to watch digital tv with the DVR-MS mux.

Yes, menus working, have tried both digital and analog live-tv and recordings.

[mvallevand]

Ok, is see you have "Start GB-PVR web on: 80"

GB-PVR doesn't support a method of telling mvpmcx2 to change the port from 7647.

Ooo. stupid me, didn't think that mvpmcx2 needed http access...

changed and livetv works

It looks like you don't have the config.xml set up to identify that this device is a PCH. Even if you are trying to run in SD you need to have the section to not try and convert ts to mpg on-the-fly.
