Trouble Booting GBPVR on MVP using crossover

[ryanmc]

Im having trouble getting my mvp to boot gbpvr using a crossover cable. If I boot hauppauge soft, put mvp in standby and then shutdown hauppauge soft and start gbpvr it will load gbpvr.
Things ive tried so far are:
copying dongle.bin to gbpvr folder and dongle folder.
fresh os install
various vs. of hauppauge
various static ip address
2 pc's laptop and pc
short cable, long cable
router using dhcp no crossover work


the laptop and pc both have 2 network cards one using dhcp through the router the other with a static ip for crossover.

Very nice job you have all done here gbpvr is sweet the amount of plugins and dev is unbelievable.

The MediaMVP needs a DHCP server to get its initial IP-Address at a restart (i.e. unplugging of the power). The Hauppauge application provides this service, however the GBPVR server doesn't.

Besides an initial booting on the Hauppauge Service there are two solutions:
- Use an external DHCP router (most Cable/DSL routers provide this functionality).
- Run a DHCP server on your PC. Take a look at http://www.tucows.com or http://www.download.com for some useful programs.
