Luke 37049 Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 the error message could be better, but you have to configure the serverwmc plugin so that it can talk to the serverwmc application. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kent 91 Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 Hi, following is a simple guide to walk you through it. http://mediaputer.com/guides/basic/2014/06/stream-live-tv-media-browser-serverwmc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrettM 7 Posted October 8, 2014 Author Share Posted October 8, 2014 I have done all the steps in the guide I go to the media browser server then click live TV I can see the TV Tuner listed but I get the following message below: Service: ServerWMC Status: Unavailable (Recorded TV folder ‘\\HITS001-PC\Users\Public\Recorded TV’ not accessible. Please make sure the Recorded TV folder used by WMC for new recordings is a shared folder. Once done, the network path to this folder must be set in ServerWMC (see ‘Folders’ tab in ServerWMC).) The folder it refers to is not on a network machine it's on a normal pc converted to a home theatre PC, so I'm not exactly sure what it telling me or what I need to do to fix the issue? Can anyone shed some light on this please......... thank you in advance Brett Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37049 Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 the guide didn't cover if serverwmc is on a different machine than media browser server. so you need to go into plugins -> click serverwmc and configure it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrettM 7 Posted October 9, 2014 Author Share Posted October 9, 2014 (edited) sorry luke i probably should have mentioned, the serverwmc is on the same machine as media browser everything is on the one machine I have windows and the Media browser and Server WMC on the Solid State Drive then all the media files are on a 2TB Harddrive this is why i can't understand the message below: Solid State Drive is C: The 2TB Drive is E: Service: ServerWMC Status: Unavailable (Recorded TV folder ‘\\HITS001-PC\Users\Public\Recorded TV’ not accessible. Please make sure the Recorded TV folder used by WMC for new recordings is a shared folder. Once done, the network path to this folder must be set in ServerWMC (see ‘Folders’ tab in ServerWMC Also if i try to play a live tv program from the tv guide it won't play instead i get : Video Error "Please ensure there is a open tuner available" but in the tuner list it says Tuners (Dual Tuner) Name: Winfast DTV2000 DS PLUS #1 Source: DVB-T Status: Available Program: Client: Winfast DTV2000 DS PLUS #2 Source: DVB-T Status: Available Program: Client: Sorry to be such a pain guys this just has me stumped ???

Kent 91 Posted October 9, 2014 Share Posted October 9, 2014 Hi, before doing anything else, pull up Windows Media Center and test out Live TV and Recording. Make sure everything works there before moving on to ServerWMC and MediaBrowser. After everything looks good in WMC, go into the Recorded TV folder and share it (right click, properties, share and set sharing for this folder). If you need more detailed walk through on how to share a folder, the following guide has a section on sharing folders that is best practice when using MB3. http://mediabrowser.tv/community/index.php?/topic/703-how-to-make-unc-folder-shares/ Finally, open up ServerWMC and check all configuration settings. Follow the Wiki if you need guidance here. http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=PVR/Backend/ServerWMC#ServerWMC_Configuration_.28Quick.29 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
addyp95 4 Posted October 10, 2014 Share Posted October 10, 2014 Some things to try: Make sure your public tv folder has ntfs permissions (security tab in properties) open to everyone with no deny (unless you have crappy roommates) and set children to inherit Make sure your network location is set to home/work, not public, While not always recommended, as a troubleshooting step you can turn off password protected sharing in windows network and sharing - if this doesn't change anything make sure to set this back unless you want anonymous access throughout your house. Try accessing your shared tv folder on another computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
