I have a machine set up as a library server running the latest version of MC17 (17.0.99) under Windows 7 64 bit. The tuner is an HD Homerun configured on the server, and it plays back OK there. My HTPC is running the same version of MC17 and Windows, and I connect to the library server for all media playback, including TV, which works fine. I recently built a new HTPC, same version of MC17 and Windows, and also connected to the library server. Unfortunately, TV playback is not working. I get a "Timeout waiting for device writer" error. All the other media plays OK.
I have tried disabling Windows Firewall and anti-virus software, but no luck. I tried looking at the log files, and it looks like the graphs are slightly different, so I wonder if that might be the problem, but both machines are using Red October, so I'm not sure what to do about it.
I certainly would appreciate any suggestions on what to try next.
