This is probably it. I saw a big dependency list, but xbmc didn't seem to auto install anything.
I'll give it another shot later.
Thanks.

I'd always like to see a log, to rule out problems on my end... at least would like to know the chtype of channels 19-21
xbmc.log
Still having troubles.
Posting this from my TV and can't read the log...not that I would know what to look for.

You need to check file permissions to:
Code:
getVideoLength /mnt/mom1/Salt (2010) [720p]/Salt.2010.720p.BluRay.PyTunes.mp4
How do you use the restore tool from backup? In the past two days, all my channels have been wiped out twice and I had to set them up again (not much fun with 400+ channels). This has not happened for months, and in the past two days it has happened twice and I recently just updated to .0.5.4a. I know the tool makes a backup of all your channels but I am unsure how it works since doing a 'Restore Pre-Autotune Configuration' under Misc. setting didn't restore the channels. If anyone could be of assistance it would be appreciated.

I'd like to see a log when your configuration gets damaged
Whenever I try to use videowindow patcher in some skins like sio2 it does not work if I press enter to bring up the guide my whole screen goes black anyone know why or how to fix it? It's been like this since Luna added that feature on all my devices but it's only a few skins most work as they should.

I'm pretty sure that you can just rename the swttings2.bak.xml to settings2.xml. Unfortunately, it creates one everytime you load PTVL. For my purposes, I've created my own backup called settings12. That way PTVL just completely ignores it.
Having an odd error. PTVL used to run fine - perfectly, even. However, it now won't even open. Tried uninstalling and then installing the newest 'stable' release and no difference. It doesn't hang, it doesn't have trouble loading channels, it simply doesn't even try to open. It's been like this for a few weeks/month+ and I don't know what changed to make this happen. I thought it was due to changing the xbmc skin, but a switch back eliminated that.
Is this a problem others have had (tried to search, but 500 page thread = O.o)?

First of all, thanks for the great addon. I've been using it the past couple of weeks and have everything pretty much set up as I want now.
The only problem I'm having is with FTV channels. The FTV addon works fine, I have the channels I want listed under My Channels and Favourite Channels. FTV version is 1.2.9. Haven't been able to get this working under 0.5.2, 0.5.3 and now 0.5.4a. Hoping someone can help

I am having a problem where pseudotv live loads all the channels and then hangs at the loading channel screen. The EPG is not populated. XBMC needs to be restarted afterward.
I use Amber but have also tried on Confluence. I have also tried recreating my settings2.xml and got the same results with multiple pseudotv live skins.
I use a combination of ustvnow,local playlists and custom library channels.
My Settings2.xml file is here:

I had to reboot after trying to start ptvl, as it started to do a new error after rebooting the system: it actually attempted to load! However, it also hung at 98% complete due to channel...95, maybe? Couldn't do anything to the screen after ~10 minutes, so I rebooted the whole box and uploaded the log file immediately on boot (didn't try to load ptvl a second time)
EDIT: Just looked at channel 95. It's the first number not used as a channel (in the channel configuration dialogue box, it's the first to come up empty - 94 has some programming to it, 95 does not). The hanging is explained by the error 'waiting for file lock.' Elsewhere on this forum, it looks like that's a problem with a plugin being used as a channel, but 95 is not a channel. going to delete settings.xml and see if that erases whatever it thinks ch 95 is.
EDIT 2: Got it to load. Had to change the settings for ch 95 from no channel type to 'none' as the channel type. Not sure what changed to get to read that way in the first place, but putting it to 'none' seems to have fixed it, as ptvl now loads.

Chadman is right you can rename the file... auto restore should work? if its not... i'll look into improving it.
BTW there are two backups made... settings2.bak.xml which is made everytime you load PTVL. and settings2.pretune.xml which is made before you autotune something.
you can restore pretune using the autotune restore option.
startup backup should auto restore... if not just rename it.
