Looking at the size of the pvrs, it seems that they're compiled in debug mode so maybe that's why FTR works (I also had crashes with my own release build of FTR)
Yup. The debug version does (by accident?) not crash. The release version of the 4TheRecord addon crashes on the initialization of the curl library. Turns out that sharing the same curl.dll between XBMC and the PVR addon is not a good idea (the library is not thread safe). When I statically link the addon against the same version of curl, it does work fine.

This means also that the Windows version of the VuPlus and the NJoy pvr addons could crash because of the same shared usage of the curl library.

Yes, I have been building in debug mode because I couldnt get the Release mode version of ForTheRecord to work without crashing.

I have created a new page here http://99.98.186.143/xbmc/xbmcpvr.html that I will post daily builds (unless told otherwise.) The page is crude for now, when I have a little time I will pretty it up a little Smile

With respect to the crashing ForTheRecord addon in release mode and maybe also VuPlus and Njoy under Windows, you might want to try the one from my development branch.
This version is using a statically compiled curl library under Windows and as far as I can see right now, the release mode crash is gone.

Unfortunately I can't dig into this more, because I'm going on holiday tormorrow.

I will try that, thanks Margro! Would it be okay to include builds from your branch on the page I created?

What's the status of the MythTV add-on? I'm using the cMyth Frodo build that tsp_42 compiled on 6/24, but it's very buggy.

Despite the bugs, it looks like that add-on is the official/best way to view MythTV with PVR...yes? Mythbox doesn't have an official build which works with MythTV .25, and it looks like all other MythTV addons are currently broken.

Has anyone hooked up with tsp to see if his cMyth add-on can be integrated into the standard set? I'd love to upgrade to the latest monthly build with the latest cMyth add-on.

Check out this thread http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid...4&page=105 (development thread for the cMyth addon) - users there are asking the same thing. tsp appears to be absent at the moment but did commit to his addon only a few weeks ago. Most likely off doing other things and will return at some point.
