Apologies if this has been asked before, I searched but didn't find an answer, likely bad wording, google-fu, etc... :mrgreen: .

But what is the difference between these two versions? Are these forks of the same leak/release or competing projects?

I've built a Win10 machine and have WMC installed and running. I'm using a dual Hauppauge tuner connected to an OTA HD antenna. I get guide data via EPG123 and everything works pretty well. I can set recordings and they get stored fine on the local drive. My problem is that when I try to play a...

In it's eternal sniping at WMC users, Windows 10 has disabled WMC on my PC while doing an update to Windows 10 2004. There is apparently a possible fix by restoring some DLL's but the tool is part of an install kit for what was referred to as WMC V13. Is this correct? Where do I get it? Thanks,...

Long, long ago, I wrote some VB.NET 2005 code to get a proprietary VFD working with WMC. It hasn't worked for quite some time. I would like to get it to work again, but I don't know if it's possible. I'm really rusty on my VB.NET.
When I try to compile it with VS Community 2019, it refuses to, with...

Newbie here so plz go easy. I use a basic RC6 ehome receiver and Harmony 650 remote. Discrete power on use to work until last Win10 update but now only power toggle will turn on HTPC. When HTPC is in standby the ehome receiver response (light flashes) when power toggle button pressed but not with...

I am using WMC8.8.5 on Windows 10, and RecordedTV library rebuilds from scratch every time the computer wakes up. Is anyone seeing the same problem?

This is simply unacceptable because I have a large number of recordings. My recordings are stored on a usb drive.

This is a long existing problem...

For some reason, WMC takes about 30 seconds before it starts playing video (ANY video, be it a file or Live TV.)

It took me some finagling to get WMC working on Win10, and i eventually did with some help (thanks all), but I just noticed yesterday that when I drag the slider to seek during LiveTV, I'm not getting the preview window. :(

It works fine on another Win10 PC using the same version of WMC so I know...

Hi,

I currently have WMC in my win 8.1 PC and my PC is acting up, which may result in my purchasing a new PC. if that is the case, what do i have to do to start over on a new PC with win10? Can i still purchase a WMC download, and where? Thanks in advance, because i am just looking at my options....

Hi,

Just made a clean install after installing new GPU. I noticed that the NominalRange registry key does no longer seem to work. Can anyone check on their HTPC? I'm using Windows 10 2004 and WMC 8.8.4.

NominalRange =dword:00000001

Hi all,
I accidentally let a Windows Update run on a restart August 17 and it broke Media Center. Launching from the Start Menu or Task Bar fails. I tried running the ehshell.exe directly, that didn't work. Windows also decide to get rid of my restore point, still figuring out why that is.
I have...

Hello together,

I have installed a Win 10 Home with WMC last year. The Win 10 build was an insider build. Some days ago, the message about the expiring date 30.07.2020 comes up. So I tried the update to build 2004 and after the, I reinstalled WMC and after running the WMC tool box it runs fine.

Hello,

I have WMC on Windows 10 and I have been having an issue where it freezes randomly when you change the channel. It will let me change the channel a few times but within a min or so it freezes. If I just bring it up and have it on the channel I start with it seems to be stable. EDIT: This...

For high-quality video files (multiple audio channels), WMP playback has background noise and music, but no voices. In VLC (which had the same issue) I corrected the problem by changing output from original to stereo . I can find no similar configuration in WMP - but I need WMP to run another 3rd...

Everything is working fine, but when i watch live tv the video is getting repeatedly pixels, and color stripes like when you have poor connection with the tuner and antenna. But in other program it works fine in...

HI,

I have a HD Hauppage Sat card and it works with WinTV.
This is the message I get.

There is currently no TV signal detected for this channel. The channel may be temporarily off
air or you may need to adjust or reconnect your TV...

Is there a guide somewhere I can follow including what to backup etc? I don't need to backup EPG as I have IceTV subscription EPG service.

I can't find my original link or files from I originally installed it on Win10.

I had my system running well on an OLD Windows 8 box, but it died. Then I put WMC on a Windows 7 laptop but the OS was corrupt and couldn't even reboot. I had someone reformat the drive and put Windows 10 on it and install WMC. It now has version 1909 build 18363.815. I'm having all kinds of...

Hi. I have been using the latest update of win 10 of WMC on a 1903 build ( which I have been able to keep with the net metering trick ) . I only use for OTA viewing but when I open to watch TV the video stream repeats until it crashes. I have been able to fix this by using my receiver remote to...
