    Like you, I also had several attempts at installing V12 before deciding to go for V8.6 which installed OK. However, I found that my machine would not wake up for recording. Looking at the fix in post #5580, I uninstalled V8.6, set up the security descriptors per the fix and then reinstalled. My machine now wakes from sleep OK.

    The services you mention are still set to Manual start. But if I schedule a recording, the Scheduled task "StartRecording" is amended with the start time of my recording (minus 5 minutes). If the machine is rebooted, it is this task which is invoked just prior to recording, and this task starts the receiver and scheduler services. So (on my machine) there is no need to set the services to automatic.

    If you have the server on same computer as WMC you not need anything else.
    About the protected content in US I do not have a clue.. Im from Sweden so have no idea.

    I guess that explains that. I still don't understand why anyone would use a CC Tuner ("cablecardstuner") outside of the US. I think there is something lost in translation.

    I guess he intends a network tuner (i think there are some tuners made by Ceton for the dvb-t market)

    Ok, yes I didn't know that the tuner component in the latest V6 sill worked after the demo period.

    In the old one for a single seat scenario you had to register the tuner addon anyway.

    Do you think Ceton might have copied the advanced logger you speak of, and built it in to their Diagnostic?

    Have a look at the picture in post 5933

    OK, so on a 10586 clean install with v12, when I install Playready, it creates the directory \ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\DRM\ and it contains a few hidden files. After I setup the HDHR Prime, the DRM directory contained a dozen files.

    After I upgraded to the Anniversary Update, the DRM directory was removed. Then I installed v12, when I installed Playready it did not create the DRM directory. Now to try adding back the missing files and see if that makes a difference.

    This gets back to what was said before, Redstone Windows 10 wont let ANY apps (our WMC) play DRM unless they are App Store Approved. That seems to be the main problem (from he who sits well away from the action, and only knows the basics of all this). It even looks like it wont even allow access to certain directories for loading such from install programs. Happy to be corrected.

    Only a layman looking on

    That makes sense. I know they've changed the DRM scheme and Playready. They've also seemingly removed all of the files that support PBDA tuners and the old DRM scheme.

    Using Process Monitor while using live TV on WMC v12 & HDHomerun Prime on 10586. I get a process of ehrecvr.exe doing a UDP Receive from one of the HDHR tuners. Here are the modules that are loaded by ehrecvr.exe, that are no longer available on my 14393 machine. I also noticed that wmdrmsdk.dll is much smaller with 14393.
