Now it is called TVMosaic? Is it the same thing? Thinking of checking it out. Don't care about the 2 DRM channels I have but I would like to update my PC past 1503, but keep WMC and XBOX 360 extenders.

Try pressing the green button twice.

No Sir

I just did what i have done for 2 years,,,,,,,it the save and execute, and now it works, BUT for about a week it would not load, each night i went to the guide, nothing was there, and a few nights i lost my few channels i have

its working now and i am happy, sorry to bother you,,,,,,,

Problem solved.
Provider issue. Now all works.

Today I install WMC 8.8.1 on Windows 10 Insider Preview Build 17661. I do it exactly as described in Readme.txt, removing previous installation first. It works ok. Actually, I have a problem with TV settings, but I think the reason is my TV system config, not exact Windows version.

I have cable...

I just found that Avast had detected ehexthost.exe as a threat and moved it to the vault! This may have been the cause of my issues, adding this in case anyone else has this problem...

If you have my codecs installed, have a look on the 32bit misc TAB.
There is a playlist creation tool there that also allows you to shuffle the list and below that tool is a checkbox to allow Media Center to use that playlist.

Here is a good suggestion for the guide problem

disable Defender runtime scan and Smart Screen as it blocks WMC and guide updates

Solution:

copy all eHome out of the Windows folder directly into C. Then just change the Media Center address in the Desktop Shortcut (remove \Windows) and check 'Disable full screen optimizations' in the Compatibility tab of the Properties of the same Shortcut.

Now that the Cat is out of the bag, you have reminded me of a similar issue that I experienced in the past. I started out with the default Recorded TV on C:\Users\Public. Then, as I added additional local drives to the HTPC, I named the additional Recorded TV folders the same D:\Recorded TV,...

I experienced something today related to the Update Service. I think the box was 2015 LTSB N ..... Might have been Pro N ... Its busy updating right now.

So, anyway, the tuner was working, the guide was not populated. I decided to try and make the guide work last night. WMC continually gave me the...

I woke up this morning and my PC was updated to 1709. I had the windows update service stopped and disabled. I did notice that a Windows 10 Update Assistant was recently installed and assume this utility performed the update for me. I reverted back. WMC is still installed but my tuner (HDHomeRun...

Alright, so here is a little clarification, I don't think you need remote potato installed on the Win 10 machine but you do need to have it installed on either a 7 or 8 machine to act as the server. The CLIENT program is called Shared Guide Potato, and I think it was made by sccrgoalie. It might...

Even Bill Gates couldn't make WMC run on the newest Win10.

Go down to the junk store and buy yourself a Win7.

Order an HDMI 4X4 Matrix Switcher.

Have your cake and eat it too.

No more bickering from me....

I'm not sure what the difference is between 10240 and 10586. All I do remember is that most of our successful testing was with 10586. As a matter of fact to make the Xbox 360 work I had to uninstall a few updates on 10586 in an attempt to get to 10586.0

In the end my solution was to install hyper-v on WHS 2011, and run a Win 7 VM. That way I got to keep my dashboard, and have WMC. My original thought was to use WMC in combination with a plugin for WHS 2011 called Remoteapp, which let you run programs installed locally on WHS 2011 from client...

Check out this thread.

This might sound kinda crazy and I don't know how well it would work but there are python programs that can take us tv now streams and convert them into a m3u stream server on your local machine. You might be able to add these as channels via the dvb link iptv server program. Dvb logic has a plugin...

Crash2009, I just upgraded to 1709. Now the double press of the green button on the remote doesn't work. Well, it does but it opens settings. Do you know of a work-around for this? Thanks

Uninstall the software (Windows Media Center) by right click the Uninstaller.cmd script and selecting “Run as administrator”.

After removing windows media center, go to C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\ and delete the eHome folder for a complete removal. NOTE: The ProgramData folder is a hidden folder so...

thanks I thought most new computers has windows 10 installed on them, my version of WMC is what I got on here from you guys. I guess you call it hacked, I had 8.1 but was forced in July of 2016 to go to windows 10, that is when I lost WMC.

again thanks

This is why software developers should release a final version with the activation layer disabled if they plan to abandon the software.
