DVBViewer Recording Service Started But Not Really?

I've just reinstalled DVBViewer latest version and I set it up to use DVBViewer Recording service and autostart with windows. Now upon reboot the service is listed under windows services as started but the Systemtray controlprogram (set to autostart) is grey and if I point the mouse over it it says DVBViewer Service is stopped. No recordings take place. If I click restart service in Windows service manager it starts ok. So what do you think is the reason for this?

 

I've made a bat file in windows startup folder as a workaround using these commands

net stop DVBVRecorder

net start DVBVRecorder

please post support.zip. The service does create a relativly detailed svcdebug.log, which will be put into the support.zip. No need for us to do blind guessing. <_<

Seem ok. Are you sure the service is marked as automatic starting in the service settings of windows? I don't know how it's named in non-german windows versions. should be in the systemsettings / administration or something like this.

Yes DVBViewer Recording service is set to startup type Automatic. And as I said it comes up as started inside the service settings window but stopped on the system tray icon as shown in the attachment.

 

It's funny as it worked fine before I did an un/reinstall of DVBViewer.

 

Anyway I'll just keep having the bat file stop/start the service then in the windows startup folder. When I eventually reinstall windows some time in then future it will probably work again.

Hi all,

 

I have the same problem. Icon still remain grey.. never yellow.

 

I've touch something because that worked earlier. I've tried to uninstall/re install DVBViewer and also the recording servie but no change.

 

Could you please help me to find from where the problem can come?

 

Tks in advance & tks to DVBWiever team for their work on this software!!
