Client on Win8: Video Playback Fails
I'm trying to use some client licenses I just purchased (thanx, Dirk!) on a Win8 system running the last SageTV client. Installation & setup went fine...until I got to testing video playback.
None of the "levels" (e.g., Basic, Medium, Standard) resulted in a video showing. This makes me think there's some feature missing from my Win8 installation, or some misconfigured system property. Or maybe Sage client just doesn't work on Win8. I can live with any of that; I'll just install Win7. But before I do that I wanted to see if wiser heads can help me get the client running on Win8. Thoughts? |

Does Win8 come with decoders capable of playback without installing third party decoders?

Yes it does all you need is to set Detailed Setup Video/Audio to EVR and use the Microsoft Decoders
