So after playing around for days as everyone knows I did a clean install of 1511 but as of this afternoon I restarted my system because M$ had update a for 1511 with kb3176493 and it broke live tv in MCE. I tried to reinstall MCE with no luck of finding tuners. I unstalled kb3176493 and its back up and running. Here is the notes of the update. Spoiler [FONT=&]This update includes quality improvements and security fixes. No new operating system features are being introduced in this update. Key changes include: [/FONT] Improved reliability by allowing more time for devices to recover from connected standby mode. Addressed issue affecting some devices with Bitlocker enabled that didn’t start up to the BitLocker password entry screen. Addressed issue with MouseUp and MouseDown events not working correctly when using a scroll bar in an Inline Frame (IFrame). Addressed issue that delays the display of content when resizing the Internet Explorer 11 browser window. Addressed issue with special keys and mouse clicks that don’t work on devices when Remote Assistance is in session. Addressed issue with rendering multi-pixel points in Web Graphics Library (WebGL). Addressed additional issues with certain devices that can’t transition from connected standby to sleep mode, updates not installing, and Internet Explorer 11. Security updates to Internet Explorer 11, Microsoft Edge, Kernel Mode Drivers, Windows Authentication Methods, Microsoft Graphics Component, and Kernel Mode Blacklist. I wonder it has to do with [FONT=&]Windows Authentication Method Win 10 1511 CC user on comshaft[/FONT]
I am running WMC v12 on 10586.545 with a HDHomerun Prime, no change for me. Live TV and everything else still work.
Be a little more prolix. Where are you? What standard/tuner are you using. What no live tv means? No video, tuners vanished or what?
@Brainsuck Damn! put this way seem the most complicate thing ever, when in fact is the easiest one #1 Just create a suitable VHD or VHDX and mount it (doubleclick is enough to mount it, eject is enough to dismount) #2 use gimageX to deploy the intended image to the VHD[x] #3 use easybcd and add it to the boot menu Done! ------------------------------------------------------------- Alternate way #1 Use Hyper V and install your os on a VHD/VHDX (virtualbox can be used as well, only for VHD disks) #2 Use easybcd and add your OS to the boot menu Done, again.
I just image a system with Paragon HDM and restore it to the vhd I like your way though, looks like fun.
In that case no need to image and restore. ust copy the partition (or use the new feature phisical to virtual, P2V)
Happened to me too. But it took 24 hrs after installing KB3176493 to lose the tuners (HDHR Prime). I tried to "Set Up TV Signal" but it couldn't find my cable card. Uninstalled the -6493 KB and ran setup again and no problem finding the CC! So it appears that our "friends" want to break DRM and CC in 1511 (build 10586-104) now.
Thanks. Damn! It's almost 1GB! An there are the two cousin updates for 10240 (KB3176492) and 14393 (KB3176495). So a lot of crossed testings needs to be done by the affected people Aka test the 10240 and see if it's affected as well, and unpack the KBs and install the single updates one by one to see which is the real update that break the things I'm almost sure that testing it on my side will lead to nothing given here everything works as usual even on 14393
I created a VirtualBox VM running 10586 and was able to play ClearQAM channels using my Ceton PCIe 6 tuner card. Video was somewhat jittery, and Copy Once channels would not display at all as the VirtualBox video driver does not support HDCP. In the VM settings, I created two network adapters -- one bridged to my Ethernet connection and the other bridged to the Ceton network connection. Under System | Acceleration I selected Hyper-V, Enable VT-x, Enable Nested Paging (not sure if any of this is necessary). In the host I ran WMC Live TV setup and allocated 5 of my 6 tuners to the host. On the VM I allocated the one remaining tuner. In order to get past Digital Cable Advisor, I had to run the OverrideDigitalCableAdvisor.cmd hack (rricketts.com/digital-cable-adviser-dca-windows-media-center-registry-override/). Even then, each time I start WMC and try to play live TV, I get an error about the video card not supporting protected content. I then have to maximize WMC and it then works OK, even after I subsequently restore the window size. I later tried the same thing with a VM running 14393 but met the same fate as everyone else -- tuner was recognized by the Ceton Diagnostic program but WMC did not see it.
To be clear, you are/were able to split the tuners between the host and guest PC *without* bridging the Ethernet adapter to the InfiniTV? Ceton's FAQ says this won't work but I'd rather not bridge them if I can avoid it, I've been burnt by that before. What type of adapter so you have the InfiniTV set to appear as in the VM? By default when bridged to the VM it was showing as some kind of Intel adapter, if i picked the virtual adapter type it had as the last choice the VM couldn't find drivers for it and it even ceton's diagnostic tool couldnt see it. I haven't checked yet, is Ceton's network tuner config add-in able to see it? I think tonight I'll see if I can find where tuners get added to the ObjectStore db and see if that code has any conditions for skipping Cablecard tuners.
My first suspect would be the Kernel Mode Drivers / Kernel Mode Blacklist changes. Protected Video Path for CableCARD requires signed drivers for the tuner and graphics devices. Maybe it's because I'm trying Win10 in a VM, but it gives me a warning when I try to select the Ceton driver for the tuner "network adapter".
Does this tell us anything? I ran the Ceton Diagnostic on all three boxes. Win7 with a Ceton, 10586 with a HDHR-3CC, and 14393 with a HDHR-3CC. then compared the 3 logs from the 3 boxes. reg_ehprivjob Code: "DRMInitResult"=dword:00000000 Win7 "DRMInitResult"=dword:00000000 Win10586 "DRMInitResult"=dword:c00d271d Win14393 ehRecvr Code: [2016/08/05 13:55:14.071] ::InitWMDRM:WaitForActivationComplete: got hResult 0x0.

Hey T-S, thanks for all your great work. Just one minor thing I noticed about your installer package for WMC. The file "Install.reg" has two very minor differences compared to the one from the v11 package. Lines 4385 and 4391. The end of line 4385 has some non printable character just before the last quotation mark. The end of line 4391 has a colon and number 1 just before the last quotation mark. These differences show up when using a difference tool. Thanks again.
I cant even install version 11 under the new Windows Anniversary version.. same symptoms.. wow!! no matter what I try.. WMC does not see the HDHomerun tuners.. DCA ends with an error when run from Extras option... But when I run this command on command prompt it detects them just fine: C:\WINDOWS\system32>c:\windows\ehome\ehprivjob.exe /OCURDiscovery Discovered known device 'HDHomeRun Prime Tuner 131B1B94-0' Discovered known device 'HDHomeRun Prime Tuner 131B1B94-1' Discovered known device 'HDHomeRun Prime Tuner 131B1B94-2' Thanks all for you hard work on this one.. hopefully a solution will arrive soon... thanks!
