NMT not Loading NPVR (me too LOL)

[observer_11]

I managed to break my previously working setup. The NMT native client works fine and I can watch movies using it, but I can no longer load NPVR; I just get a black screen. The most recent change I made was installing the SAF decoders and changing some of the render and decoder settings. Below is the info from the NMTsyntax Checker and I have attached logs. Any thoughts?

It could be firewall, if you didn't change anything else. The only thing that is wrong I say is you width is too big, when you factor the offset change the 720 to 700.

Thanks for the suggestions mvalleyand, but changing the height didn't help and the firewall is off. Why I couldn't leave well enough alone I'll never know; I have got to stop 'tweaking' or fixing things that aren't broken LOL. WAF is very low as of lately...

When you get the black screen after 30 seconds does it return to the nmt menu?

Martin

[observer_11]

It stays black and never returns to the NMT menu.

[mvallevand]

Ok could you compress and upload the startmeup and npvr.cgi files from the mvpmc share.

Martin

[observer_11]

Files attached.

[mvallevand]

Those are good too. Can you telnet to your pch?

Martin

[observer_11]

Hmmm, I can ping, but I can't telnet? Perhaps I a have the telnet syntax or port wrong?

That usually indicates that you don't have guest sharing enabled, simple file sharing enabled, or that guest sharing of the mvpmc folder has been removed. That is the generic guest account not Everyone/Guest
