pvr.wmc stopped connecting - no longer see Live TV in menu - troberge - 2017-01-06

I have been using pvr.wmc successfully for over 2 weeks, so I know I had this setup correctly
- but today it seems to be unable to connect to ServerWMC.

I tried to reload and still unsuccessful.
- ServerWMC successfully starts
- and I can watch Live TV via WMC
- but no longer seeing 'Live TV' menu option in Kodi home screen
- Live TV is enabled and pvr.wmc is still installed and enabled
- only change I see it appears there was a windows update ran overnight, but don't see how that could have affected these apps

I do not see any logs for Kodi being generated...but so see ServerWMC logs (relevant logs below)

@troberge please post the entire serverwmc log on pastebin.com. Also, are you running serverwmc as a service?

The kodi log is found in:
%appdata%\kodi


RE: pvr.wmc stopped connecting - no longer see Live TV in menu - troberge - 2017-01-06

Thanks...

I just posted logs in pastebin.com.

ServerWMC.log: http://pastebin.com/qGSrLk52
kodi.log: http://pastebin.com/66f9mNr8

I am running with default settings and worked for about 2 weeks.
- So HTTP host service is not enabled
- my pvr add-on is set up to connect with default settings of using 127.0.0.1 on port 9080


RE: pvr.wmc stopped connecting - no longer see Live TV in menu - krustyreturns - 2017-01-06

Try deleting kodi's epg and tv database. You can do it from live tv settings menu, or delete them directly from here

%appdata%\kodi\userdata\database

then delete epg*.db and tv*.db. Best to do this with kodi not running. These databases will get refilled by serverwmc.


RE: pvr.wmc stopped connecting - no longer see Live TV in menu - troberge - 2017-01-06

yup - that seem to work. But appears I have to re-add my logos, but its a small price to pay.

Thanks million - Big Grin


RE: pvr.wmc stopped connecting - no longer see Live TV in menu - krustyreturns - 2017-01-06

It depends on how you got your logos. If you get them serverwmc you should not have to do any reloading.


RE: pvr.wmc stopped connecting - no longer see Live TV in menu - troberge - 2017-01-06

good point - i set up via kodi, maybe i will re-do this to WMC now. Thanks for the idea.
