On windows, sage has always required a 3rd party utility to be able to mount iso's. I think it's VirtualCloneDrive.

Windows 10 allows you to mount an ISO file as a drive. Haven't tried it, but wondering if that would work? Anybody tried it?

Sage is not programmed to utilize that functionality if it exists. Only the VirtualCloneDrive program.

Wow
It works.
I had a stray ISO, sitting on my SageTV Server. I went into Windows Explorer. I right-mouse clicked on it and selected MOUNT. Win 10 made it an I:\ drive. SageTV immediately popped up a dialogue noting it detected a new drive and asked me what I wanted to do with it. I selected "nothing" as this was just a test. I then went into the Server File Browser menu option (Search | Browse File Systems) and found the I:\ drive. I could access the DVD image and the DVD menu by clicking on the first VOB file (I knew to do that from previous testing). From there I was able to watch the DVD.

Yes, THAT would work, just as if you had connected a thumbdrive. That's not how the VirtualCloneDrive feature works. The sage feature allows ISO's to exist in your library, and when requested to be played back, sage will mount it with VCD (or mount if a linux server) and play the files.

Clicked link in first post for v536 and installed it on my server (which is where I do I all my viewing). Installed seemed to go ok except that when i tried running the client it asked me to provide the IP of the server. Since they should be same machine i used 127.0.0.1. No joy and it looks what I downloaded and installed is the client only.
Poked around and did not see where I get software for the server so I can install on same machine. Would someone please point me in the right direction?

Yep, my bad. Saw the three files and just grabbed the client. Ran the other two files and system works. Thanks for the assist.

Does the Windows installer work on 32-bit platforms? I just got a critical error on an attempted install ...

I don't know about the error, but it was pretty onerous. It seemed to imply that some 64-bit element was missing. I looked at the log, but it seemed like a "closing-of-the-barn-after-the-horses-escaped" thing. It deleted my links to the previous installation.
For what it's worth, i read through this thread in its entirety and found that I had a similar problem on a previous install, which "went away" on a second attempt. I performed an update and restart (to 32-bit Windows 8) and the installer ran. Well, it ran enough to "install" Sage 9. The problem was it did not recognize or use any of the prior installation. It defaulted to installing on my C: drive (ughhh!!!) and went back to a fresh system. I do have copies of my wiz.bin, and Sage and SageClient .properties files, but I went ahead with the "fresh" installation). Of course this introduces other problems, like not being able to control the STB, since the Generic Multi-Device tuner was not configured (well, at least not in the location of the new installation. I would like to go back to my prior config structure; with Sage on D:, but the installer ran without asking where to install the server. Is there a way I can re-run the installer and copy the backup files to the new v9 installation? |

Or change the text Options to "Set Install Path"? Just a thought to maybe make it clearer for new folks. I know it bit me the first time I did the Windows Installer. Assumed it would use the current install location but it didn't |

I'm guessing the number of people upgrading to v9 from older (and thus requiring a check of old location) is going to drop close to zero by the end of July, so probably not a big deal.

I don't know - if you didn't install to the default location, won't this problem come up every time you install a newer version? So, not just when going from v7 to v9, but also going from 9.0 to 9.1 or 9.1 to 9.2, etc.?

Of course, there's also no reason in the current version to install in the non-standard location... It was an issue back in the early UAC days, but all those issues are solved at this point.
