Windows 7 Support (1 Viewer)

[carmenm]

Ok today i have windows 7 64 bit running great.
MP runs perfectly(UAC disabled), and i still use ffdshow because i have to much tearing with dxva.
But still working like a charm!

im on newst build: Microsoft.Windows.7.Build.7229.x64
Runs almost operfect, the only issue i have is: cant delete files after ive seen them, then thy are locked ;( i have to restart MP to unlock the files..
Thats annoying.. other than that, it rund perfect

i use SAF v3.47 (Standalone filters for MediaPortal) - DXVA ready (MPEG2, H.264 and VC-1).
its just the best, no other stuff neded to play all formats..

will mediaportal work on windows 7 64bit?

Yeahh works perfect, been running it for long time now..
from win 7 - 64Bit Build 7000

If this would be the case, then we would have a lot less work to do for 1.1.0.

Fact is that MediaPortal 1.0.2 has quite some issues on Windows 7, especially if UAC is turned on.
We are working on it and hope to have the major amount of issues fixed in the 1.1.0 ALPHA release.

Stay tuned.

i run win 7 64bits build 7100 with uac disabled and mp is running very good also.

Thats the difference, you all have UAC off, and this is not what we should base our testing on.

UAC is so frustrating because almost all developers are idiots and don't follow the MS development guidelines. UACs main target was to piss people off to get the developers to notice that they are badly behaving citizens.

windows 7 UAC isn't that annoying, vista one was a pain to the extreme, although mine is disabled purely coz im an advanced user

Can fully agree to that. Runs perfect, only issue the one mentioned above.

The only issue that I was never able to fully overcome was support of my Vista MCE remote under W7. At the time it was with the beta build and so things might have improved but even trying to use the latest (at the time) IR Server Suite still gave me issues with certain key functions or simply the remote no longer working. I never continued with the effort to try and resolve the issue and went back to using Vista.

Get the working dll from wsewolod post, this is only for Win7 and is not backward compatible for Vista\XP systems.
