You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
I have two fresh LibreElec installs one Raspberry Pi 3 and on x86 system. I have Server WMC 1244 on my Windows media server. PVR WMC fails to intially install, but if update is done the add on installs and works ( Can watch recordings or live TV). But when system is rebooted PVR WMC fails to load giving error message. But, if PVR WMC is updated it works again. Is there a solution to this problem ?
Code:
[i]https://paste.ubuntu.com/25942652/    I tried to use pastebin for my WMC server[/i] log, but it was to big for a single paste file here is part 1 https://pastebin.com/gjCfYwVX  part 2 https://pastebin.com/dNHzdX9m part 3 https://pastebin.com/e23jXCVG
The log isn't going to show a problem since it is a startup problem with serverwmc. 

Haven't heard this problem before,  my advice is to do a complete clean install of serverwmc.  To do that uninstall serverwmc, then delete the directory below (but same the config.xml file that is in there first so you don't lose its settings.

%programdata%\vdsoftware\serverwmc  (don't forget to save the config.xml file that is the directory before you delete it)
For good measure, delete this folder too:
%programdata%\vdsoftware

then reinstall serverwmc.  If you still have the problem, let me know what the error message is that you see when serverwmc fails to start.
@Mac38

The forum moderators have determined that banned addons (wiki) are present on your system. To receive assistance here, these banned items must be removed. If a clean log is not submitted within 3 days, then the relevant post(s) will be removed after this time.

As you have hijacked another post, and there is nothing of value in your original post, I have removed it.

Please repost your debug log from a clean system, and re-ask your question with more detail.

Thank you.
I don't know what the @Mac38 comment about banned add-ons is about. I'm not @Mac38 and I have a fresh unaltered install of LibreElec 8.2.0.1. 

I uninstalled ServerWMC saved the .xml file deleted the specified directories, and re-installed ServerWMC 1244. The problem persists. At Raspi boot I get a message - Header<< PVR clients: PVR WMC Client>> End Header  - Text of error message first line << Add-on couldn't be loaded. >> Text of error second line << An unknown error has occurred. >>
Same as before. If I go to the PVR WMC add on info and do an update everything works until I reboot.
It sounds like simonmoon was complaining about the pvr wmc addon failing to start. I had this issue on the pi as well. I want to say it was due to the system time on the pi not matching serverWMC system time. I think once I enabled NTP and selected the option to wait for network in Libreelec, the issue went away. Let us know if it helps.
@sbthomas got it. I had the NTP pool time server already, but I did not have the wait for network to start LibreElec. Once I set that, I noticed at boot my time LibreElec time was way off, and there was a small message about time drift, but the clock quickly re-adjusted to proper time, and the PVR WMC and ServerWMC synced up and now work properly. Thank you very much.
simonmoon, sorry for misreading your email and wasting your time. @sbthomas thanks (as always) for your input. I would have never guessed it was a clock issue.
