Very excited the Cable Card encrypted chans are now working. I jumped into re-testing Extenders on v10 with no joy still.
I thought I'd posted earlier today but I cannot seem to find my reply. Anyway, I'll repost. First of all, I'd commented that I'd reformatted my computer, re-installed Windows 7, upgraded to Windows 10. From then, instead of re-installing the previously working port of WMC, which was v2, I decided to install v8. I got it working, but initially had a problem with viewing Live TV. Once again, my setup is basically Verizon FiOS TV fed through a Ceton InfiniTV6 ETH CableCard device. Am I reading this correctly, in that Extenders still do not work even in the latest ports of WMC? I need this, otherwise I'm going to explore other non-WMC options. What is this DISM version I'm reading of in this thread? Would I need it and why?
If I remember right Microsoft do not support 3rd party extenders after Win7. It is because certificate in extender is expired, rejected or something. So only working extender is their own XBOX. I have not tested this by my own and glad if proved otherwise =)
For the record I tested the (offline) DISM installer. The integration worked flawlessly, but the end result didn't work so well. With the old settings data I had the cursor spinning forever and no video/LiveTV. With a setting from scratch eHome crashed once reached the tuning phase (I guess the it was the old problem with the registry permissions), launching ehome as admin fixed that, but then I had again the spinning forever thing. Installed the V9 and nothing changed, installed the V8 and my LiveTV was back. Installed the v10 and it worked flawlessly as well. Retested the DISM version on a fresh installation inside a virtual machine and I got the same spinning forever thing. So I'm not sure about what you chenged on DISM/v9, but there is something wrong there.
@all Speaking about testing varoius versions back and forth. If you don't want to waste your time with tuning/guide/logos setup each time, you can backup easily the WMC settings #1 stop the WMC services #2 copy in a safe place the \program data\microsoft\eHome folder #3 export the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Media Center registry key on a freshly installed WMC, just check that the services are stopped reimport the .reg file, copy the eHome folder back in place. That's all. Your WMC will start already configured, no time wasted.
Yeah, that's a GOLDEN setting, a lot of people will be thankfull for this. Pitty that I did not came on that to post it out here ;-) Litte replenishment here: #2 is a "hidden" location
I had that spinning forever issue once. I restarted, and it was OK, but the WMC startup sound is gone. This isn't a major issue, but it is a bug.
It wasn't my case. I saw that before being the first one that had WMC10 working I've practically experimented every problem and every workaround (except the US only things). Usually killing the services (and the dvblink process in my case) is enough to fix everything
Nope, v10 is just v8 + dism packages mcplayerinterop.dll isn't patched, and CompPkgSup.dll isn't touched
Hello, Tested V10 in a VM. Installation worked good except my language (FR-fr) that didn't install (I needed to copy it manually into eHome folder). No ability to test TV in this virtual machine.
Ok. I 'll try to replace those two files to understand which is the culprit. Edit: Confirmed. mcplayerinterop.dll was the culprit.
Major problems after November Update 1511 - 10586 After I update one machine from Windows 10 to the latest November update 1511 I also have a lot of problems: - Tuners are not found (off course driver and BDA drivers are there) WMC says: "No tuner is available" - Lots off video files are not able to play (if this is a codec issue I do not know at the moment, but could be) - Same happens in v8 and in v10 (no tuners available) What can be different in the update so there is a tuner fault ? What it would do if you install Windows 10 with the MS creation tool (which they have changed today) to install all over again (from scratch) I do not know, but this really is not my intention because a lot of programs and so on are installed. I will test things a bit further this weekend and hope to find what causes the f#*ng problem
Hey guys, I have been troubleshooting a problem for 4-5 days - I have successfully installed WMC on Windows 10 Home 64 (upgraded from 8.1) and WMC runs. However, no matter what I do, it tells me it can not find any tv tuners. HDHomerRun 2 OTA US-4 version. Tuner works fine with 2 Win7 machines, and on 8.1. Network is Gigabit all around the house. Firewall is disabled on the Win10 pc. I tried older versions of the HDHomeRun app - same thing. Followed this guide: c:\windows\ehome\ehprivjob.exe /OCURDiscovery doesn't list anything. WMC searches for tuners for about a minute and throws the error. Anyone can help? The only thing I am doing as per the instructions is the clean install Win 10. However, the WIn8.1 before that didn't have media center installed.
