    Hello and welcome! :)

    Can you please confirm: are you attempting to install MediaPortal 1 or MediaPortal 2?

    Okay.

    I should say: Windows 10 definitely does support DirectX 9.

    I recommend you try the latest update snapshot:
    https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/threads/mediaportal-2-sr15-update-1-snapshot-2015-08-01.131488/

    It should install the required dependencies for you.

    If you still have problems, you can always try MP1. MP2 and MP1 both have their strengths and weaknesses. In general MP1 is the more mature product where MP2 is still a bit of a work in progress. You may find that MP1 suits you better.

    Yes correct that would have solved it. I guess I was more interested in finding out what I had done to cause the problem as the error message was of no help.

    That fixed the problem. I just manually installed VC_redist.x64.exe and reinstalled 1.32 64-bit. Thanks for that. A couple of things; the deployment tool for 1.32 doesn't remove the previous version when you're updating from 1.31 to 1.32 and "MediaPortal TV Server" gets installed even when you choose to install the client only. I...

    I can confirm that. After reinstalling MP1.31(x86) I mistakenly installed the x64 version MpUrlSourcesplitter. Then I got the error. After uninstalling MpUrlSourcesplitter(x64) I installed the MpUrlSourcesplitter(x86). But the error message still comes.

    I've setup my HDHomeRun in MP1 as (4) IPTV cards rather than Atsc. I can see the (4) Atsc cards, but just have them disabled. I did it this way so I didn't have to edit the channel names every time tested a new TV-server install. Anyway, it works. I don't know if this would get you past the BDA driver issue. I'll provide more...

    Isn't this normal? I mean perhaps you should first do some config before you can start using mediaportal?
