Hi

I have just updated from Windows 8 to Windows 8.1. Under win8 and win7
the PVR web interface and PVR scheduler worked fine. Now under windows
8.1 I can run the PVR scheduler which downloads any podcasts ready to
download. However, when I run the Web PVR script the web page does not
load and the following message is displayed in the browser "Cannot
load page". Then when I reload the page under Chrome I see the correct
Web PVR manager page.

I have changed the default browser page from Internet Explorer to
Chrome as when I reloaded the page http://127.0.0.1:1935/ under IE I
continually received error message

This page can’t be displayed

So, to summarise, successfully loading the web PVR is achieved:

1. Run the  Web PVR perl script
2. This "starts" web PVR and attempt to open address
http://127.0.0.1:1935/, which fails
3. I the reload http://127.0.0.1:1935/ in Chrome and the Web PVR page
loads and operates correctly

Does anyone know how I get the script to correctly load the Web PVR
manager page without this "reload"?

Regards,
