I am also doing almost all of my testing via vnc since this pc doesn't usually have a monitor connected while going thru this evaluation. I should also add, I did uninstall/reinstall once during this troubleshooting process. Would seem to indicate the issue is with the client side of the setup on the system with both server and client. UPDATE So, I did install the client only on another PC and can view recordings and live TV via guide on the remote PC client without problem. I can view the recordings by browsing to them in explorer. On the recording I can move the navigation pointer forward to any point in the recording but do not get any picture and it doesn't advance on it's own. In both cases the viewer opens, get swirling circle, then normal viewer screen with navigation but no video and timer does not advance (not 'playing' forward in time). The last things attempted before collecting logs were watching a recording and viewing a TV channel from guide. Let me know if it appears they are causing issues. There are still a couple of network drives that are available. Here are the logs after removing usb drive. Let me know other info I can provide that would be helpful. I7 6700 16 GB mem Primary 256 gb ssd, secondary 1 TB driveġ x hdhomerun network extend 2 tuner atsc Am wondering/trying things with user rights on that folder. I have set all recording and timeshifting folders to the same folder on my secondary drive. Recording works and can view recorded files browsing folder but not via client. That seem to correspond with the time channel was attempted to be tuned. MultimediaDirectoy: Error while detection of media type of folder '/': Object reference not set to an instance of an object The log entries I see with the word 'error' in them are many:

When I select a channel I get a swirling circle and eventually just the blue screen with controls but no video. I was able to setup my xmltv guide and view the guide. Install and configuration seemed to complete well. Newly configured server/client on same system. Link for 'system specs' isn't working and not seeing a place to show system config in profile/account settings.

*Update Recordings do work and I can view them from the folder but can't thru the client.
