Tray icon disappeared from startup options in msconfig...

[elisurf]

I disabled the startup option for the GBPVR tray icon as a test and rebooted the PC. I did not like the configuration, and not wanting to have to restart the GBPVR tray icon every time I rebooted, I entered msconfig again to enable it. For the first time in four years since I have begun playing with msconfig, IT WAS NOT THERE! There is no option to enable the tray icon.

So, as another test, I let the showtime for one of my reoccuring shows begin, then entered the GBPVR folder and manually started the tray icon. It began recording AT THAT POINT. In other words, if the tray icon is not present, the recorder will not work.

I desperately need to figure out how to get the tray icon back into the startup menu on msconfig. If anyone can help, please do!

THANKS!

The tray icon has nothing to do with whether a show will record. The GB-PV Recording Service is responsible for this task, and this should startup automatically with your machine.

Well, that's odd then. Maybe the program not being recorded was a glitch. I have noticed a few since upgrading to 97.13. But I would still appreciate being able to get the tray icon to start up when I boot the PC.....

You could always create a shortcut to GBPVRTray.exe in your startup folder.

If a recording fails, then zip and attach the logs with the description of when it supposed to record and I'll take a look.

I'm not sure where the startup folder is......

If you click the Windows 'Start' button, then select 'all programs', then you'll find a folder called 'Startup'. Right click on it, then select 'explore'. That will open your 'startup' folder ready to create a new shortcut.

Here is the error I receive whenever I try to place the copied "GBPVRTray.exe" into the Startup folder.

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.

You need to create a shortcut rather than copying GBPVRTray.exe into that folder. That way it'll be able to find the supporting files it needs.

rightclick drag
when you release the button, it will give you the option of creating a shortcut there.
