Edit: This has now been posted in the support forum http://forums.nextpvr.com/showthread.php?t=41086
I am trying to make a GBPVR client (PVRX2 1.0.16) boot straight into PVRX2 using the advanced method listed on the Wiki and initially posted on this thread about booting straight into GBPVR.
When PVRX2 is manually started the setup works fine using file sharing and has done for some time.
The client is XP and the server Vista home both on a home network (There is a mismatch in client and server versions, client:1.0.16 and server: 1.2.9).
I've followed the steps in the wiki, excluding a couple to remove the mouse pointer and taskbar as i wanted to check it worked before i got rid of them. PVRX2 starts with an unhandled exception in the attached file.
I thought it might be that the client tried to contact the server before it had an ip address (was DHCP) so i set fixed IP's for the client and instead of the server name in confix i used the IP.
So what i would like to know, is anyone using PVRX2 with this boot into gbpvr method? Does it still work. Or can anyone suggests why PVRX2 fails with an exception?
Edit: This should probably be in support now, not general. Can it be moved?
(Sorry i'm not using the most recent versions, i havent had chance to upgrade yet. She is threatening to make me buy a standard tv recorder if i miss any recordings for her and i darent risk it!)
