ok so I've downloaded the ArgusTV.UI.MediaCenter.Setup x86 2.1.0.0.msi and installed it. Settings doesn't work from my client when in MCE. Tried to download the guide zip listed above but my client install is only 32bit so it won't work... any more instructions?

Here we are:

Note that I run a full Server 2012 Essentials / Windows 7 Server-Client setup. From the logs it is trying to access the Argus server on the local machine, but I don't know where to change this either during install or once running.

Looks like you have not save the servername in the user.config

so use the Client the Dns.GetHostName(); Method from the Utils Class

Now can you look into the user.config

as Exsample where it can found
C:\Users\Kay\AppData\Local\Microsoft_Corporation\ehExtHost.exe_StrongName_tyvur121uypbkoi5h52ggz20swnvvrye\6.1.0.0\user.confg

Code: Select all

Hi there!

I just installed a clean windows mediacenter 7 32-bits setup with argusTV server/client also installed with a Technisat cablestart HD2 card already configured.

Installed the latest version of your plugin ... so far so good, filled-out the configfile by hand. But now it does nothing at all when i click a item like "Argus live TV".

re-installed the plugin, tried to start the setup from within windows mediacenter and a get a message that notes "unable to launch argusTV.UI.Mediacenter"

is there anything i can try to make this a working setup?

Information

Windows MediaCenter Client for ArgusTV works only with ArgusTv Versions until 2.2

think i let it die and leave argustv too why?
only a backend without frontend is a bad joke
and no Mediaportal xbmc or Vlc are no Options for me

what for Problems
can only use Vs 2008 for mce plugin ( this has no nuget Support )
3.5 Assemblies from ArgusTv isnt more avaible

so i have no Chance do do anything
