Hi Evan Nothing worked. However the problem is solved:D I tried Googling again and this time struck gold. It turns out that the problem was...
@Evan I'm not sure :-). So long as WMC is activated it will put any TV broadcast it records into the storage location selected in 'Settings > TV...
Something weird is going on :eek: In the first place, the Registry entry had changed when I went back in with the intention of modifying it. I...
@Evan I've now remembered that at one stage when I was toying with the idea of having WMC as my media-server I set up (I think) a symbolic link...
Well, apparently it hasn't done the trick alas. Attached is a screenshot. You'll see that although Explorer's address-bar names the opened...
Done. I've checked again, just to make sure, and it hadn't been added.
Hi Evan Thanks for responding. The path is:- G:\Video Workshop\DVB-T caps I should mention that it wasn't strictly correct to say that...

Hi Neil Reporting back as promised. Not looking hopeful, I'm sorry to say. The video's maker breezily says:- "I've obtained a retail iso,...
rsinfo Thanks for adding your voice. It's good to know I'm not alone here (nor going crazy) :-) Gordon Likewise
Hi Steve I must be going ga-ga. Can you please explain to me - as you would to a 5-year-old - how, exactly, this answers the criticism &/or...
In the course of googling for solutions to a different aspect of the Windows 8/8.1 transitioning fiasco I was stunned to stumble upon this (posted...
