I've had PTVL working pretty smoothly for the past few months. I still find that I have an empty EPG sometimes, but if I completely uninstall PTVL and then reinstall, it loads a new, full guide.

However in looking for fixes to that issue, I have somehow reverted to an old issue that I used to have: whenever I launch PTVL, I get the message "PVR Manager is starting up 0%" and this will just stay at zero seemingly forever. I can't seem to figure out how to fix it.

From googling, there are a lot of other people who have had this issue solved, but not in relation to PTVL as far as I can tell. Seemingly most of them want to stream media from a network and have some sort of problem with their IP address. My channels are just smart playlists of media from an external drive.

Any help?
