@Ralf Becker: i know, and i thougt you maybe did only extract the DX9.0c Package with a doubleklick, but not install it with the dxsetup.exe.

Hello

May be it can help you, I had the same problem even if I'm using Windows 7 (same error direct X 9c message during MP2 install).
By just installing the web direct X install, nothing happened because my Windows 7 has already direct X 10.1. It' not explicit, you have to check the c:\windows\logs\directx.log.
By installing direct x with the link http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=8109 which is the SDK, it can be installed even with a more recent version already installed. And now, the MP2 setup is working.

@ David: I will try your proposal as well, however I already installed the SDK several times during the last days, and MP2 always asked for the missing 9.0c. I'll give you feedback here how it worked on my PC.

Yep, here it is: https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/threads/mediaportal-2-sr15-update-1-snapshot-2015-07-28.131420/. The brand new installer takes care for downloading and installing dependencies

I had the same issue. Clean Win 10 install, "standard" installer was complaining about missing DX 9.0c.

This helped (naturally, running dxsetup.exe after unpacking the archive):

Try this download link: http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=8109
It's the one contained in our wiki: http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/2_..._Installing_MediaPortal_2#System_Requirements

The new installer however did not work. I forgot to store the logs and now that DX is installed, it doesn't fail any more. Before I installed DX, it failed because it couldn't cache the DX installer. There was a long numeric code about that and logs clearly indicated that there was a problem with hashing / caching the dxsetup (but not VS runtimes).

After manually installing DX, installer completes with success. Moving on to setup now

- Same here. But for some reason I had to start with the June2006 distribution and the June2010 distribution on top of that. Just one of them didn't do the trick, no matter which one. It had to be both. Odd.

Hi all

New to MP2. I would describe myself as a hack, I can fix most things as long as the instructions are clear but I don't always understand what I'm doing.

I have a clean install Windows 10 on the following hardware.
ASRock FM2A88M-HD+ R2.0 motherboard
AMD Processor A6 6420K APU
AMD Radeon HD 8470D
Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-2200 (8900)
LG BR Drive

All drivers appear to be up to date.

I have downloaded the directx 9.0 installer form here http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=8109 as recommended on http://wiki.team-mediaportal.com/2_..._Installing_MediaPortal_2#System_Requirements

The Directx installer says 'You must be running Windows 98, Windows Millennium, Windows 2000, Windows xp or Windows server 2003 family to install directx 9.0'

I have tried running as Admin but the message is the same.

Any advice on how I can install it successfully would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers

Hello and welcome!

Any advice on how I can install it successfully would be greatly appreciated!

If you want to use MP2, use the latest snapshot:
https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/threads/mediaportal-2-sr15-update-1-snapshot-2015-08-03.131533/

The installer should grab and install the dependencies for you.
