    I'm seeing the same general ATSC CoreCC setup problems on both Win7 and Win8.1/update. Both systems have all the recent msft updates.

    I was running "win 8.0 classic" when I installed MePo 1.3.0 and 1.5.0. Since then I did the update to Win 8.1 and the most recent update to Win8.1/update a few weeks ago. This is the 1st time I've installed MePo with 8.1. But the Win7 system also has problems and has not seen any significant Win7 changes. Just Msft monthly update bug and security fixes.

    Getting burned out on the ATSC/CC problem. This is a nice to have, but the sun rose this morning, suspect the sun will rise tomorrow. Still bothers me that simple "one click" install 1.7.0 did not work. Same "one click" worked for 1.3.0, 1.5.0.

    Fired up my 2009 vista-64 laptop that I retired since it was seeing major thermal throttle and reboot problems running MePo. Still has MePo 1.3.0 installed, LAV 0.55.2, CoreCC20130727 (108 KB file) that is in ATSC/CC wiki and this thread. ATSC/CC work, "graph" looks exactly like working examples in this thread. Win8 system is replacement, ATSC/CC worked fine with MePo 1.3.0, 1.5.0, LAV/CoreCC20130727. Not sure what to try next.

    Is this an "install" problem, runtime?
    Why does TVmpeg2 = CoreCC "trick" work?
    With Win8.1 and CoreCC disabled, why can't I use MsftDTV-DVD codec with MePo? Causes MePo errors see zip in msg #19
    With TVmpeg2 = CoreCC "trick", Win7 uses MsftDTV-DVD, Win8.1 uses LAV? Different codec priorities?

    Is there any way to see runtime view of how MePo is trying to connect the various pieces/ports when it tries to build graph? I assume there are ports between the different "boxes" that it checks to see if they "match", expects to see certain settings, priorities etc. Any way to set breakpoints, look at values MePo runtime is seeing? My guess is I'd need to download/setup/build MePo from source to do gory detail debug.

    I just noticed your configuration is wrong.
    You've configured Core CC as post processor for video rather than for TV. No wonder it doesn't work. ;)

    yup, that is the problem, set CoreCC in TV post processing and now it works. Has TV always had a post processing option? For some reason my apparently feeble memory post processing was only in the video section, but clearly I'm wrong.

    sorry for wasting a lot time for you and Sebastiii.

    There should be an option to mark a thread UBD (User Brain Damage) but that would apply to many posts

    Heh, no problem. Happy to help any time. :)

    Possibly not always. Maybe video had one before TV, but not certain. Both were added a long long time ago. The wiki certainly says...
    Navigate to TV > TV Post Processing section.

    ...so this is not a change.
