[QUOTE="The Solutor, post: 1226761, member: 129024"] I'm a coauthor of the WMC for win 10 port an the author of the latest and most upgraded installer of the WMC package. I can confirm that it is working w/o a glitch on win server 2016. Actually is better than the original from MS, given the ease and speed of [un]installation, the included backup and reset features, and the RDP patches I have included (you can use WMC via remote desktop) Just click on the installer and enjoy. The above sentences are valid "as thy are" for any user around the world [B]except[/B] the Cable Card users in the US. For those unlucky people the only known solutions are: #1Use W10 build 10240, aka RTM, aka 1507 (the LTSB 2015 version is your best option) #2 Use W10 build 10586, aka November update, 1511, block windows update and update it carefully, and manually #3 Use Win Server 2016 [B]Test Preview 4[/B] (four), which is the same build as the option #2 #4 obviously use win7/8/8.1 or win server 2012r2 essentials or whs 2011 or its brother win storage server 2008R2 essentials. MS did remove the whole DRM support which is needed by the cable card idiocy, so there isn't any easy solution to fix this in Win 10 anniversary, creators and current Win server 2016 A [B]partial [/B]solution to use WMC on W10 anniversary (and later) is to proxy the CC tuner using Dvblink, this way you can get [B]clear channels only[/B], DVBlink is an European company, just like me, so it's very hard to support US people for anyone outside the states. Back to MP and troubles with remotes, IMO it's way better to use Eventghost, which isn't limited to a single program, it's very easy to configure, and can collect inputs from any peripheral. It works perfectly with anything from MP1 to WMC, and also notepad or whatever you need, if you like. MP2 (incredibly) still lacks a bunch of shortcuts, so it works but not on 100% of its functions [/QUOTE]
