Hi all,

I thought I'd post just to say that AT&T seem to be blocking the emails being sent out by the forum software at the moment.

I've emailed them asking to be unblocked.

If you've tried to sign up for an account recently and have not received the automated email then please email me directly...

We've seen a high number of errors from our email server over the last 48 hours due to AT&T blocking emails.

This means that anybody trying to sign up for a new account will not receive their activation email.

Please email me as per the post above (please include your chosen username!) and I'll...

Last post

Did you get this resolved? I noticed you're using v1809 => does anyone have WMC working with this release?

… note that just to complicate matters even more v1903 is only a few weeks away !!

I think the best approach for WMC is to simply keep your WMC machine on Windows 7 :-)

I would check the tags for your music files. Wmp might be seeing contributing artists or something similar and grouping them together.

you need to buy dvblink iptv addon and setup it's virtual tuners in WMC.
not sure if it will work in windows 10. You can download the trails free for 20 days demo (dvblink server 6.0,iptv addon 6.00)
