Beginner (helios) MVP problems

[JimPletcher]

MVP 'helius' version E1M, dongle.bin.mvpmc-0.3.4 installed in latest GBPVR.

Booting MVP does not provide option for 'emulation mode'

Cannot telnet into MVP ' could not connect to host on port 23:'

I'm new at both GBPVR and MVP - as you can tell!

Any suggestions?

Unplug and plugin your MVP again then zip and upload you GBPVR logs and I will have a look.

Thanks for your prompt response.
The entire contents ogf the GBPVR logs directory is attached.

Ok, it isn't really an mvpmc question you haven't even configured GBPVR to autostart an mvp server.

AarrrgggHHH!
Brain fuzz is embarrasing.

I changed the number of MVP servers to auto start from 0 to 1, rebooted the PC and power-cycled the MVP.

Nothing seems to have changed. What else could I be missing?

[mvallevand]

The two biggest problems would be

- not allowing PVRx2.exe through your firewall
- not turning off the Hauppauge software.

Martin,
Thanks again, I warned you that I was a beginner

The firewall is/was not trhe problem.
Stopping (and setting to manual) the two Hauppauge services did the trick.

Now, if I can get the emulation mode to autostart, I can rest and enjoy GBPVe until the house goes to digital TV.

So far, I have dongle.bin,config (containing mvpmc --startup emulate --emulate 192.168.10.220 &) in a Windows share named mvpmc with read-only Guest rights - without success.
