    Hello,

    I try to add support of the media devices on Windows Server Core (20h2).

    The goal is make work DVB-T USB key.

    I not need the GUI. I'm happy with ServerCore.AppCompatibility.

    I tried to add: Microsoft-Windows-Client-Features-Package ~ 31bf3856ad364E35 ~ AMD64 ~~ 10.0.16299.15.mum

    But it did not work.

    I did not understand the part of the .esd

    I took the ISO Windows 10 (20h2) same version as the server to extract:
    \windows\winsxs
    \Windows\Servicing\Packages

    Can you help me please?

    u are trying to add the driver of it ?
    i guess u need the audio card also working right?

    adding different build package should not work or might cause problems

    the best way i found to do that
    is overwriting deploying


    u deploy windows 10 and then server 20h1
    to same vhd
    copying the packages and manfiest to winsxs folder and start the adding

    I can not install the driver, I guess it's the media class is unknown (not support on core)

    I am not sure to have fully understand the procedure.

    what I have done:
    1) installe server core
    2) extract file of 10
    3)add package on offline server core

    u deploy windows 10 and then server 20h1 -> apply install.wim of 10 and on this apply install.wim of server
    // not installed just apply ?
    20h2 not work ? i have to downgrade to 20h1 ?
