    @ TOFnow;

    Can you give it a try with DVBLink in the middle?

    Sorry, I'm only interested in the "as it used to be" workings of WMC. I still have 10586 without the "updates" working as it used to so unless it is working with the red stone versions, I'll just keep it this way. Thank you for your interest and investment in your ;)time.

    Ive tried setting up WMC v8.8.1 and v11 on Windows 10 LTSB 2015 and can get WMC to see the tuner and even get the guide update but when trying to view a channel it will sit with the spinning circle for sometime before going to a blank blue screen. I'm using a HDHomerun Prime and this is over wireless. The weird thing is I'm able to view channels with the hd homerun app and even through Kodi.

    Are you using the HDHomeRun beta drivers, or the regular drivers?

    I started getting the Tuner Not Found error after the latest MS Cumulative Security Update 3198586. I tried reinstalling the HD HR drivers and the various fixes for this problem listed on the Silicon Dust HD HR forums. Nothing worked for me until I uninstalled update 3198586, and then magically, my tuners were recognized by WMC again. Evidently the same fix in the last security update that broke Windows Media Center is present in the new security update.

    It's a cumulative update. It includes the upgrades released previously. So yes It inclundes the one who broke WMC as well

    Can you tell us what version of Windows 10 you have? If you have the anniversary edition, or the latest updates, you will have this issue.

    You may need to roll back.

    Did you click okay then try it again. This happens to me every time I update a new build. I uninstall, reinstall, when it comes to setup my Live TV, it always says TV Tuner not found, I click okay, then start TV Setup again.Takes me right thru it

    ^^^...and...if your CableCard channels are Non-Protected, DVBLink Server will enable WMC to "find" the HDHR tuner in Win10-14393. DRM Channels will not work though.

    Hello everyone
    New to this site after finally finding the option to install WMC on windows 10 Home. (Primary use was Win 7 & 8.1). I am happy to report that I am now able to play recordings made over the past five years...It's going to be a late night! I have not tried to set up PCTV USB tuner. Thanks for the thread, help and suggestions...

    Any new luck with a Ceton tuner ?

    I want to jump back in this game and no, I am not willing to replace a perfectly working Infintv 6 PCIe card (giving 6 tuners) with a HDR giving me only 3 tuners. And my License for Windows 10 only gives me Windows 10 pro, and it took the Anniversary update on it. I also have an Infinty 4 PCIe card, incase I wanted to add more tuners.

    Riddle me this. Does T-S's 8.8.x run on Windows 8.1 ? This should allow my Ceton tuners to work and I can play with the RDP hack and other mods that were added in it. Any new tests with 8.1 ?

    On my primary HTPC, I run Windows 7 as the primary OS and run Windows 8.1 w/WMC on a dual boot (No boot up option, need to change in system to change OSs so I can use UEFI), I had 10 on it but, after updates killing WMC, I decided I needed to be 100% dependable and 10 WMC cant provide that for me unless I completely disable update.

    Have an HD Homerun Prime, and running OCURDiscovery finds 3 tuners, but I can't setup the TV within media center, because it says non tuner detected.
    I tried putting the computer to sleep and turning it back on (some random forum search suggested this), and no difference.

    Any ideas?
