[Pending] Updated OSInfo.cs (Windows 10 unblocked) (1 Viewer)

[Galaphile]

EDIT:
I see that there is a more official build provided by the developers. (still preview on preview though) better use that one instead of mine, that way information will be channeled to the right persons aswell

For those that run Windows 10 on their production system and can not live without their favorite tv shows....
included is the diff file to modify OSInfo.cs

I used it to recompile the 1.9.0

not an official supported patch ofcouse after compiling (only utils is needed to be compiled) only the file utils.dll needs to be replaced in your mediaportal folder

Did you tested the MP1 on Windows 10?

 

[Galaphile]

Running as we speak and "The Blacklist" runs great. now trying to figure out a code change into OSInfo for even future versions of Windows (unsupported but runnable atleast, Havent coded since Windows 8 preview (https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/threads/updated-osinfo-cs.103029/) so a little bit rusty but ill get there (unless someone beats me to it

Perhaps a code change so people wont have to compile themselves again
All windows versions that are not detected will report NotSupported instead of Blocked so they might run. .... or they wont....

I'm attempting to compile this myself but am a little overwhelmed with all you gotta go through. Galaphile can you upload your compile?

 

[Galaphile]

Due to the fact that everything in this setup is not supported i only compiled the second diff for you, ("Unsupported"-message still shows up but one can click it away). Utils.dll is the only file that needs to be replaced.
Keep in mind that nobody will support this and the file is provided "as-is"

@Mods if this is not allowed, im sorry for it

It is allowed. This is open source!
However, for now the team cannot commit to provide support for people that choose to use MediaPortal 1 with Windows 10. Please do not post bug reports and support requests in other parts of the forum. If you encounter problems, please let us know about it here in this thread. If everything works fine please also let us know here.

I gotcha. I just didn't want to go through the headache of compiling myself after I saw what all you have to do. You have to download like a hundred different things. I guess I got no choice.

I've decided to try and compile this myself but am clueless as to how to do so I'm reading the guides on the wiki.

I've decided to try and compile this myself but am clueless as to how to do so I'm reading the guides on the wiki.

The main things you need are:

1. The code...
2. ...which requires git support (eg. TortoiseGIT).
3. Visual Studio to compile the code.
4. NuGet Package Manager for Visual Studio.

You don't need anything else unless you want to build the C++ components (TsReader, TsWriter etc.) or want to build an installer.
IMO the best instructions are here:
