Wont Run After Update to 4.4.1

[Eug]

Just updated to v4.4.1 and now the program crashes just after the splash screen loads. Extract from log File below. Please can somebody help?

If you know where TVR keeps its settings file, back it up and try a fresh xml file to see if the problem goes away.  If it does, restore the settings file you backed up and look for <StartupTab2>MyShows</StartupTab2> .  Remove the MyShows and save.

[Tom Snyder]

I believe that if you run the Browser Test in the Help section it will tell you if have all the dependencies needed to run TVrename.  Mine says "Dependencies all found" so I don't know what it tells you if you don't have everything and how to fix it.

Try installing https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/windows/latest-supported-vc-redist?view=msvc-160 for your system - may make the difference?

Uninstalled & no change 

recopied the files from x86 no change

[Alister Voltaire]

Uninstalled and cleaned out the folders in <program files> and <roaming> 

installed all the c++ redist modules - now passes browser check.

[Sparky53]

Thanks v much - looks like the c++ redist is the key thing. This pain will really help others to resolve their issues 

[Sparky53]

Eugene - are you still seeing problems?

[Eug]

Hi Sparky53

Apologies but didn't get a chance to attempt any of the solutions until now. Looks like removing MyShows from  <StartupTab2>MyShows</StartupTab2> in the settings file has done the trick. Testing now, but it will take a while. Seems it now has to redownload all the shows' info, banners etc. Will post an update as soon as i can confirm.

Almost forgot to mention, before i tried anything now, i did update to 4.4.6, but this did nothing for the problem I had

[Eug]

So  removing MyShows from  <StartupTab2>MyShows</StartupTab2> in the settings file has done the trick. Runs perfectly. The only funny was that it had to update show info and banners. Thank you Steven K

[Steven K]

Glad to help!

[Sparky53]

4.4.7 should have stopped the need for this and  <StartupTab2>MyShows</StartupTab2> should work again

[TheObo]

I installed the C++ redist and TVRename now works when run interactively

But when I run it as a scheduled Task using:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\TVRename\TVRename.exe" /scan /doall /createmissing /hide /quit

Then I get this error in the Log:

|FATAL| UNHANDLED ERROR - Application.ThreadException System.Exception: The ChromiumWebBrowser instance creates the underlying Chromium Embedded Framework (CEF) browser instance in an async fashion. The undelying CefBrowser instance is not yet initialized. Use the IsBrowserInitializedChanged event and check the IsBrowserInitialized property to determine when the browser has been initialized.

This is the same for all versions after 4.4.2

[TheObo]

It seems to be the "/hide" that is the cause - if I take this out it works - but I'd like to run it in the background as I always have before (and to stop the popups about new versions, etc)

[Sparky53]

Thanks v much for investigating. Have a fix in place for the next version that should resolve it

[TheObo]

Which new version is this?
I have upgraded to 4.48. but the /hide still doesn't work - I now get this error:

FATAL| UNHANDLED ERROR - Application.ThreadException System.Exception: The ChromiumWebBrowser instance creates the underlying Chromium Embedded Framework (CEF) browser instance in an async fashion. The undelying CefBrowser instance is not yet initialized. Use the IsBrowserInitializedChanged event and check the IsBrowserInitialized property to determine when the browser has been initialized.

[Sparky53]

4.4.9 (not out yet)

[TheObo]

4.4.9 installed and /hide still doesn't work unfortunately...

The logs show it running the scan and then just stops with no error...

[Sparky53]

Hmm - unusual. Looks like we solved the prior problem (but have encountered another). Does it do the same each time? What's the last bits in the log?
