Title: Windows Firewall Rules
Post by: mojave on September 30, 2014, 10:02:57 am
Whenever I build a new PC (for myself), I usually end up reinstalling the OS and some programs several times just because I can.  :) The first time I installed the HDHomerun software and then JRiver. HDHomerun setup firewall rules and I was prompted by the firewall to allow JRiver in/out access.

The second time I received no prompt from the Windows firewall regarding JRiver. When I scanned for channels, no channels showed up. I knew what the problem was and manually added the firewall rules.

Is there a way for JRiver to make this more automatic? The more casual user would probably get frustrated when a channel scan didn't work.

Here is one thread of someone that had same issue:  HDHomeRun not working (http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=83806.0)

Good point.
