Ask and ye shall recieve.

The limitation being that the sharing of recorded content still involves mapping shares for each media center.

@StinkyImp, if they're not into majorly technical things I wouldn't recommend a PC or NAS media serving solution to your family folks as you would be responsible for setting it all up and keeping it running. But that's no different from WMC in it's hay-day. I loved it because I was really into that...

But I Can't Create My Account On The My Digital Life Website, Can You Help Me?

Thank you so much!

Are any of the tuners new to the system?

Slow channel changing and playing Live TV can be caused by PlayReady when changes have been made to the configuration.

I've never used USB tuners in WMC but but can you not unplug or disable them in the registry one at a time?

Thanks. Yeah, this is all about Live TV for me. Bummer.

I actually had no listings on they particular registry entry.

But I did figure out that it was my USB 3 card not playing nice with Windows 10. It worked in 7, and works in 10 but only got HDD's not multimedia devices like the tuners. No idea why.

Thanks for the info though.

Generally speaking, I have been able to do upgrades within the 8.8.1 - 8.8.5 range on my testbeds, restoring the database and registry settings using backuprestoresettings and not lost the history, line up or schedule.

However, Microsoft do like to keep us on our toes and there have been a few...

I Don’t Think That Modern Media UI+ Would Be Right, It’s Not Fluent, Not Colorful, Different Design Language, And Contains A Virus In Setup, You Have To Find A WMC Theme That Was More Fluent, More Colorful, More Windows 11-Like, And Some Others, Please Find Another. :think:

Yes. Basically, the newer the version of Windows 10 operating system, the harder it is to run WMC.

Virtually every major upgrade will stop WMC working and it need to be uninstalled and reinstalled. So the same will apply to Windows 11 when it arrives.

If your system is working, your best bet is...

Yes it works fine

you might not have to uninstall and reinstall WMC even Ok thanks! I'll do the update.

Did you run the uninstall as administrator?

I'm not sure this will work, but might be worth a try. Some of us who used DVBLink had the same issue where trying to turn a channel on gave no feedback and it was just down to a missing file. You need to copy it to the ehome language folder (from the WMC installer Zip :...

W O R K I N G !

After reading through several threads, it seemed somewhat related to Intel graphics.

I had an old GT610 and dropped it in. Boom! Works fine and plays the recorded files fine also.

I am guessing it is something related to the Intel graphics and Windows 10. This system was used as...

Thank you!! It works :)

If you have V13, the files in Windows\ehome, with the exception of a few, should be dated 09/09/2015.

If you have V8.8.5, the files in Windows\ehome should be dated 18/09/2020

The one other option if you have a Hauppage cable card tuner is their Win10 TV plug in. I updated my HTPC to Win 10 just over a month ago and since I rely on a cable card tuner, I could not use the Win 10 hack approach. The Hauppage interface is clunky and not as smooth as WMC but it does work...

I changed from Windows 10 to Windows 7...

If I understand correctly, you appear to have a file association issue. You need to change or reset your file associations.

Digital cable Advisor is needed for WMC, I am running Windows 8.1 WMC and had the same problem with Digital Cable Advisor.
The program is Digital Cable override, it is in the Win 8.1,I just can't remember which one, you might have to look for it, I did have trouble downloading it and after a lot of...

My motherboard clock failed and my SSD got too small for my OneDrive, so I replaced both for the first time in maybe 8+ years on my Media Center. I have 12TB of recordings dating back to 2009. I used the Samsung migration tool to migrate the OS drive to the newer/larger SSD and it all worked along...

Did you have to reinstall WMC after the upgrade?

If so, have you rebooted the PC since reinstalling WMC?

There should be a shortcut that starts ehtray.exe in the common startup folder.

If it isn't there, you can reinstall it using these instructions:

1/ Go to the c:\windows\ehome directory,...

Okay, I have WMC working again. Here are the details for anyone in the future who experiences the same problem (for RE-INSTALLS ONLY.)

WHAT I DID WRONG : THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE BackupRestoreSettings.cmd . I don't know what is wrong or how to fix it, but attempting to restore your backed up...

To me, it is obviously a daylight savings time issue.
One 'clock' (your PC) is using it, the other (ffprobe) is not.

Thanks that has fixed the problem!
