This worked great. Now i have v12 working and settings backup up. Thanks so much. i guess as soon as extenders work I can fully move to Win 10. Awesome!
I tried those instructions (and others) but never got it to work on my system after several hours of trying. I'm with dhjohns on this one, I expect I'll need to reinstall Windows 10 to fix whatever is broken in order to avoid wasting more time trying (I wonder if it is because it was an upgrade from Windows 8.1 with Media Center?), but that's on hold for now as I WAS able to re-install v11...
Restore Point puts you right back to working v11. On mine, I defiantly flew through some turbulence during the uninstall. Several others also. All the fixes and little tricks are listed if you click on v12 in my signature and start reading, if you haven't allready.
Something defiantly went wrong with your install. 1) How do you know your system files are corrupt? 2) What brand of codecs are you running? 3) What are you going to do now? 4) What Version of Windows are you running?
If I ever had to change languages I think that is done in Windows. Try uninstall and re-install Spanish. Just an idea, I never had to change languages.
In moving from v11 to v12 I got Error: 0x800f0922 on an x64 machine. I tried a .NET fix and could not get it to install. With a brand new install of Windows 10 it installs fine. I've not had the "modified files" error and my hdhomerun prime works great. I've been through some windows updates and it's still working.

So I messed up going from 11 to 12 yesterday when I did not follow the instructions and ended up doing a clean install of Windows 10 and everything worked fine. Today after work I turned it on and I am getting a "service is unavailable" on all channels but when I go into "digital tv antenna strength" all the channels have good signal strength. HDhomerun view is working fine still... Any thoughts? *edited to correct errors
Does anybody else get a few seconds of 'black screen' when putting WMC into fullscreen and either minimizing or restoring it from fullscreen mode?
Rerun the HDHomeRun setup. scan the channels for each tuner. Make sure BDA compatibility mode is "Windows Media Center" go to the advanced tab and click the repair button. that should fix it.
I remember having that problem. Uninstalling and reinstalling the HDHomeRun software and driver took care of it. The repair feature in HD Homerun Setup did not help.
I believe that one is caused by resolution mismatch. The bigger the mismatch the longer the delay. example: graphics adapter 1366 x 768 to display 1080 x 1920
I'm such a rube. I should have tried that... Reinstalled Homerun software and all is good again. Thanks for the replies Kim and guho
I tried this today and couldn't get WMC to launch even though it appeared installed. So I reset my PC to a clean Windows10 and it now loads fine. My question is, can I apply all of the latest windows updates and still be ok? Or should I turn off the update feature?
I havent had any issues with keeping windows updates enabled since using v11 and currently completely up-to-date with WMC still functioning like it should.
Bit of background, Ive had WMC running for years with Win 7, not many issues at all. Ive just upgraded the old 1080p TV, as it failed and was unrepairable, to a NEW Samsung 7 Series UHD TV. I have Win 10 with WMC (from this forum) running on it with no issues. My 4 tuners installed and work great (using old x64 drivers) along with EventGhost, USBUIRT, MCE Standby Tool and AutoHotKey. Im currently using a GTX 960 (HDMI 2.0 out) plugged into my new TV via HDMI. In the TV's options ive set 'HDMI UHD Color' for the HDMI input used. In the Nvidia Control Panel ive set the resolution to 4k x 2k 3840 x 2160 (native) @ 60hz using Color format of YCbCr444. The output is great, crisp and sharp on the desktop and all applications. I dont believe ive got a resolution mismatch? As the TV is 3840x2160 and the graphics card is set to the same. What do u think?
A big thanks to all who have got WMC up and running on Win 10. My only issue at the moment is getting My Channel Logos to work how I want. The logos and spacing seem to work but nothing else. I cant remove the channel number, increase # of rows in the guide or miniguide and get a 3-hour view. I have tried copying over the the 'Microsoft.MediaCenter.Shell.dll' from my Win 7 machine which was setup with all the above mentioned but this makes no difference in Win 10, there is no change at all within WMC. Ive tried looking at the MCL log (C:\ProgramData\MyChannelLogos\Logs), doesnt seem to be any type of error mentioned in there. Anyone made progress to get these other options working? Or have any ideas worth looking into?
