Restoring Mvp Connection

[jerry430]

Like a lot of people here, I periodically lose my MVP connection and have a devil of a time restoring it. I have discovered a simple process that has immediately restored the connection each time I've done it. Bear in mind that I'm connected directly to my PC via crossover cable.
When I lose connection, I do the following:
Start Hauppauge MediaMVP (I know GBPVR is supposed to work on MVP without the Hauppauge software installed)
Restart GBPVR
Stop Hauppauge MediaMVP

I have put a Hauppauge Start/Start desktop shortcut just above the GB circle in the tray, so that it takes me about 20 seconds to accomplish the above. I'm curious to see if this works for others.

If you have troubles starting the MVP directly from GB-PVR, then its one of the following things.

1) You dont have a DHCP server somewhere on your network. GB-PVR doesnt provide one, but the Hauppauge software does, so those with out a home router will need to installed some DHCP software if they want GB-PVR to boot the MVP.
2) You have the Hauppauge software running
3) You initially powered up the MVP using old Hauppauge (so its trying to communicate with GB-PVR using an old format of the protocol).

Hmm, very interesting, but you might want to check disable all media mvp services and don't have both GBPVR Recording Service running with media mvp services. You might also want to force load GBPVR MediaMVP Server and leave that running for a few hours then open the GBPVR Config then click okay. Reboot the PC you should be all set

I have no idea what you are talking about, and I can see any reason you'll need to leave anything specifically running for a few hours.
