This must be a common problem. Mine won't open either. I deleted the videocenter folder in the /home/user directory but it still won't work and it recreates it every time i try to open it. where are the files/folders you guys are deleting to get it to work? Thanks

Have you got it to work before and Now it does not load OR you have never get it to work in the beginning? If you have never get it to work before, there is other problem, we need more info, your device/OS/error message etc. What we talking about is the situation that Video center wont run/load after a re-install. Usally it is the problem of myvideos.db, sometimes you delete that particular file, VC will work. Sometimes, you have to delete the whole VC and re-install. If you ever enabled Video center>Tools>Settings...>Memory>Preferred memory>Memory card, you will find myvideos.db on your memory card. Otherwise it will be under /home/user.

Post back on your results, hope this help.

Yeah, it worked before I installed the new firmware on it. It worked great. I had probably nearly all of the video subscriptions mentioned on here on it. And now they're all gone with the new firmware, which sucks.

But thanks for the help. That was the problem. I had to delete the myvideos.db file from my MMC. I'd been deleting it from the /home/user and it didn't do anything, but after deleting the one in MMC, it worked. Well, thanks again. Time to watch some videos.

I am glad it worked. I had the same problem upon re-installation and drove me mad. People never use video center does not know what they miss, you and I do.

Please share with the forum if you find any new channels.

OK, I had pretty much the same problem. I couldn't run videocenter gtrom the GUI, but I could get into an x-term and launch it from the command-line. Here's the steps that I took to get it running again:

/media/mmc2 $ rm -rf ./videocenter

There were two separate videocenter directories that seemed to be necessary to remove. I had removed the one in ~user, but that didn't clear it up. I had to also remove it from the internal memory, and it came back. I hope this helps someone. It was bugging me for a few days.
