Comcast of WMC block registration function

I have WMC 2005 for XP. Comcast in my area of MN has decided to make all the digital channels, (same basic channels) I can always get the channels to change, but I have to do manually and with two remotes. My WMC will record is no longer present because I have to stay on channel 3 or lose the signal. I tried IR blasters in different and varied configurations without success. I contacted Comcast and they said "we offer no supprt of WMC. They are also pushing a configuration DVR and TIVO to replace WMC, as well as a TV Online Xfinity display option.

So after 5 years and a wonderfully simple interface for a novice oldtimer like me I lost one of the most useful funtions on my computer. I had many well-meaning "experts contact me on workaround solutions, but they do not understand...". In October, Comcast will also blur it signal blocking any camera recording of never working with there service.

I realize they want to protect it DRM, but I watch analog and disc to my hard drive in analog mode.

My question to the community is; Is this the end of WMC and they think of other systems such as Direct TV and Dish network cable will soon follow suit?

Also, I would break the law to try and even attempt to circumvent all security measures there to keep me from using WMC?

Thanks to all who read and answer this question. I only am not that good with a computer has so forgive me if Im not able to follow your suggestions. (I quess this is why I so loved WMC, it was simple)

you need a DTA and DTA installation instructions are here:
 
 
You must re-run TV set up. It doesn't sound like you did that.

  • "Group Policy" block several functions and there is no way to fix it

    When I try to change some features/functions on my Win7 system, the operating system blocks attempts, telling me that "group policy" prevents me from doing what I want and to consult my "system administrator".  Because my house is not a system administrator or IT Department, this suggestion is unnecessary.  The latest incident was when I tried to add/modify one of the desktop gadgets.  When I search the online group policy problem, I'm advised to run gpedit.msc but program that causes an error, "MMC could not create the snap."

  • Hi the registration functionality Document

    Hello

    Is it possible to create a record of the employee (actually manually by HR) that will store the documents specific to the employee as a letter of offer, job description, warning letters...

    I would like to learn more. In the case as a Manager or an hr manager can I use the registration document to load these documents against the employee. If so, is there a way to make these details read-only or employee?

    Kind regards

    Jenny

    Employees can also view/download documents, and when they try to open, it opens in the native application, like pdf files Acrobat Reader and Word files in MS Office etc.

    So it is possible to restrict users with personalization/customization, is not to allow the download of new documents.

    Kind regards

  • enhancement request on the distance to block registration

    Write code to process the information in the tables 'detail', i.e. potentially multirecord forms tables with a probable relationship of foreign key to a table or field also iin the shape, is a bit problematic currently. As far as I know the only one
    to be in block A and to gain knowledge on what is in the block B is to 'go' and this is the navigation and it is limited. We need a way to read and write information from documents in the other blocks without navigation (and the name of the block and fields must be dynamic).

    for example: get_block_record_field ('BLOCKB', 3, 'FIELDC'), something like this? (In this case, returns the value of fieldc in)
    third record in blockB [return - 1 for no more record].

    for example: set_block_record_field ('BLOCKB', 3, 'FIELDC', ' 42 ") something like this? (In this case, sets the value of fieldc
    in 3 minutes of blockB at 42.

    Another idea on the blocks: prevention in double automatic. Form have a property that indicates whether the value is, and then when he gets the message he will complain about records with primary keys in double or missing in this block. Thus, for example, before the update/insert duplicate key / missing check code could be activated to indicate the user to do something about the problem, move the cursor to the first block with the problem. (So they could settle things and then try to save the data again.)

    I like the first idea. I need to think about the second.

    Regarding the idea of having a GET_BLOCK_RECORD_FIELD, sort of already have this in GET_ITEM_INSTANCE_PROPERTY. What is currently lacking is the ability to return the value in the field, which is what I assume you want. Right? So, what should be added is something like this:

    GET_ITEM_INSTANCE_PROPERTY ("emp.empno", 3, VALUE);

    Or create a new top like this:
    GET_ITEM_INSTANCE_VALUE ("emp.empno", 3);

    but I want to show as well as the original line to be number 1 when the nom_element came.

    Here I want to check the original Line_Num and display the message

    "Item is duplicated, update quantity in the original 1' line."

    Can someone help me find it?

  • Registration function does not work

    Hi all!

    I have a problem with the LCC session recording feature - it works but only sometimes (average - 1 times of each 10 trials). I use the latest version of the SDK - Version 2.2.0 (November 10, 2011). I also tried Player 10.1 and 10.3 client API.

    I have a WebDAV repository that is registered with a server API - AccountManager.RegisterRepository (...), I also checked for if sure this deposit is saved with the method AccountManager.getRepositoryInfo () API - everything looks ok, the repository is stored and recalled by the server of the CCA.

    Then, I got a sample application record that was provided with the SDK (com.adobe.lccs\sampleApps\Recording\Recording.mxml) and my roomURL, the user name and the password - application seems to work as needed. I click the button Save to my request to save, uncheck the Save button, close the application, and then wait for a long period of time, but nothing is transferred to the storage of WebDAV in most cases... only sometimes it works and I have found no logical difference or model when it works.

    I also tried to start registration of server API - AccountManager.startRecording (...) - but it's also not working as expected. I have reviewed the code LCC and detected that this method should release the item in the following collection and node:

    RoomManager-> roomState-> recordingState. This method works well and the response of servers LCC is OK, but when I get information from the room with the AccountManager.getNodes(roomName, "/") API server I find no information XML returned.

    Either by the way, I checked the WebDAV server logs - there is only information on placing a file in storage servers of SUPPLY in case of success, not any error info without success to put files - so it seems that ACC has not even tried to download files of unsuccessful registration.

    Tips you can think of which could explain what could be wrong here? It seems there is an error on the side of the LCC - perhaps they forgot to update their API/sample files to something that works?

    I'm losing my mind trying to solve this problem, please help me!

    Thank you in advance!


    OK, can update you the startRecording method in lccs.cs to that?

    /**

    * Start to record a specified room

    *

    * @throws exception

    */

    ' Public Sub startRecording (the string, string archiveId, bool guestsAllowed)

    {

    Dictionary itemBody = new dictionary();

    itemBody.Add ("fullSession", true);

    itemBody.Add ("archiveID", archiveID);

    itemBody.Add ("guestsAllowed", guestsAllowed);

    Dictionary itemVO = new dictionary();

    itemVO.Add ("itemID", "recordingState");

    itemVO.Add ("body", itemBody);

    publishItem (room, "RoomManager", "roomState", itemVO);

    }

    This should solve your problems, and if it works I will integrate this in the SDK for the next version.

  • RESTRICTING THE SIZE OF THE DATA BLOCK REGISTRATION

    I have a form with a main block and details. MY requirement is as follows:

    The number of records that will allow the bulk of RETAIL data entry should depend on the selection of a certain text value in the header block.

    For ex: if I select A value in the header, data can be resumed for only 6 records block details. If you try to enter data in the record of the 7th, then system should display an error message.


    Is this possible. Help, please.

  • Screw vs Express SoftMotion function blocks

    Hello

    Are there differences between express screw SoftMotion function blocks? I intend to drive a servomotor through a NI 9505. Examples AND show how using function blocks, but I've been advised to use the screw Express instead, work around odd behavior when using a simulated axis (http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/SoftMotion-quot-Update-Buffer-quot-VI-refuses-to-take-more/m-p/22508...

    Thank you!

    Hi JKSH,

    If I booted up a new application, I would use screw Express on function blocks. Here is a list of things to consider when choosing:

    1. By default, function blocks are asynchronous. They run on the rising edge of the entry "run" and are carried out when the output "done" is high. They do not block and function block architecture will almost always call the same function blocks again and again in a loop. You control the flow of execution with the 'run' and 'done' entry and exit. Screw Express, on the other hand, are synchronous by default. They don't have an entry not "run" and instead start running as soon as they are called. They block also until the end screw Express can be converted to asynchronous by right-clicking on them and by changing the "calendar model. When you change the calendar in asynchronous model, the Express VI will now act exactly like a function block.

    2. In general, you should never mix asynchronous and synchronous API. Your application should be one or the other. If it is possible to have safe synchronous and asynchronous calls, you must be very careful and really know what you're doing.

    3. To my experience, write simple applications is easier with a synchronous API, and more complex applications are better suited to an asynchronous API. Since blocking synchronous calls, you need more loops in your application and it can become difficult to maintain.

    4. There is also the property node / API call, on which are based the functional blocks and screw Express. You can do a right click on a function block or Express VI and convert it into a Subvi to see the underlying code. Then the function blocks and screw Express can be pleasant to work with, you must sometimes lower level control that is offered by the property and invoke nodes.

    I looked at your other post and it seems that you meet one of the intricacies of asynchronous calls. In point 1 above, I mentioned that function blocks increase sensitive edge on the execute line. In your modified sample and the original sample, the 'Update buffer' function block is executed when space becomes higher or equal to the "size of the Contour data. In the original example, the size of the table is 40, but in your example, it is 100. We will follow the stream through the example:

    1. We do nothing in the first round since we do not see a rising edge of the signal "run" "Initialize the buffer" until the second iteration.

    2. At the beginning of the second iteration, we initialize the table with 20 points, leaving 20 spaces available. This function block can take more than one iteration to complete, so that the loop can run several cycles before the release of "Done" is set to true. In this case, the next block runs.

    3. Then we start the move of contour. No point is taken in the buffer zone This occurs in the part of the user rather than the scan code.

    4. Then, we see that there are 20 spaces available, so we add more than 20 points to the buffer, leaving us with 0 beds available. This means that in the next iteration of the loop, the signal "run" function block 'Update buffer' will be false. This is essential to the functioning of the example.

    5. Since there is no abandonment called, we have a loop around back.

  • Each scan, SoftMotion takes a point in the buffer zone. Finally, the number of available points will be 20. When this happens, the entry "run" will switch from false to true on the 'Update buffer' function block and 20 points more will be added to the buffer. This cycle continues until you stop.
  • So, what was wrong with your changes? You did the size of the table 100 points. If you look at the steps above, you will see that in the example, we have 40 points in the buffer before taking points. If you increase the size of the table to 100, it means that there are 60 places available. However, 60 is always higher than the "size of data contours" (which is 20) and so the entry "run" function block 'Update buffer' will never wrong; We have always more available space than the "size of data contours. Since "run" is sensitive edge up, we are never really new data in the buffer, and so you get only two cycles that you initially put in. I agree that it is difficult, but it's exactly as function blocks are supposed to work and are certainly something to think about when you use the asynchronous API.

    Thank you

  • Error: "retrieving account information" while trying to connect to comcast account

    Original title: cannot connect to the online account

    Hello, I recently changed ISP to comcast. I can't access my account from comcast on my desktop PC. It is running windows XP SP3. I can connect using one of the other three phones in my family. I can also connect to other accounts online using my office. Only my comcast account is blocked. I type my user name and password, click Enter, and the display shows "retrieving account information" for approximately one second. Then the screen goes out for a second and right back to the login screen appears. The service tech with comcast could not help me! Can you?

    Well, you obviously have the correct settings, or other computers would not work.  Try to remove the account from comcast completely, and then close OE (I assume you are using OE).  Then find the antivirus interference and make sure you have e-mail scanning to off (see www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#3).  Then add your account from comcast back once and then see if it works.  See also if on this machine you can connect to messaging from the web interface with comcast.

    I have AVira anti virus... each am I get blocked autorun message... check my update box... along the list of updates (stranded) uninstalled... How can I solve this?

    Hello

    I suggest you double-click updates failed, this will give you details why the update failed.

    Method 1:

    You can also try disabling the Antivirus temporarily and see if the problem still occurs.

    Note:

    Disabling the antivirus, it is a potential threat for the security system be sure to enable the antivirus once you have completed troubleshooting.

    Method 2:

    Based on my research, it seems to be a problem on the Avira Antivirus software, you can also follow the steps listed below to disabled the autostart feature.

    (a) open Avira

    (b) click on Extras

    (c) select Configuration

    (d) expert mode policy
