EXEmultiTuner Crash

[wolfpackmars2]

Using the EXEMultiTunerPlugin.DLL causes the SageTV Service to crash. I am attempting to setup my cable box to change channels through firewire, and, as far as I can tell, I have followed the instructions in the forums correctly. I am able to use the EXE file Channel.exe to change the channel on the STB, but using EXEMultiTuner causes the service to crash.

Here is the log of the error:

I'm only pasting the first part of the error log to keep the thread as short as possible.

Here is my config for the encoder:

I have created a 2.ir file in the common\remotecodes\exemultitunerplugin folder as instructed in the STB Firewire control instructions.

Any help would be appreciated.

I never used the EXEMultiTunerPlugin.DLL... Instead I use the FWChannelProxy ... it requires no registry settings.. just copy to common folder see link below.

Exactly what I was looking for, thank you!

It worked great.

Now, to find more STBs with firewire ports...
