Nightly crashes - possibly Weather Plugin?

[murphotronic]

For some reason, everday, for the past two weeks Windows gets some conflict with GBPVR in the middle of the night. GBPVR still runs and records, however a windows pop-up is there telling me it has to shut down GBpvr. So I shut down and restart.

I thought it first had something to do with power managment as I employed Cool n' Quite about hte same time. I've disabled this and still get the error.

I think it may have something to do with weather plugin as it started giving me errors about the same time. I disabled the plugin in config.exe, but from the logs it looks as though it's still trying to do something. Being an ME not a CE the XML stuff hurts my brain after a while. Could someone take a look and offer some suggestions?

Thanks again,
murph.

I'll try this again...

The problem is caused by the Theatre Listings plugin. Uninstall the plugin and you'll be sorted.

Sub,
thanks for the quick response, what's the best way to do this?
I know remove the .dll from plugins and any theater folders, but do I have to remove this from the config.xml manually or will this be taken care of on its own?

Also, small side issue; I have cable connection but only subscribe to aobut 15 channels. I've removed used channels both through EPG and the Channel tab in config.exe, but they comeback everytime EPG updates. Is there any way to prevent them from coming back?

Thumbs up again on the program, I plan on making a donation once I find a new job!

Just delete the dll from the plugins directory.

Are you a zap2it user? If so, log into http://labs.zap2it.com and remove these channels from your line up.

murphotronic,

Do you have a full time internet connection? The above error is stating that it can't contact the server to get the theater listings. There are a couple bugs I plan to fix here after I get back from vacation and that is one of them.
