My Vista installation has been driving me insane for some months and keeps blue screening.
Other than a complete reinstall of Vista and starting from scratch, I thought I'd give Windows 7 a go and see how it goes.
So far; all is working well and everything is fine except for a couple of issues:
I cannot add any new shows to myTV. The existing stuff has been picked up correctly using the series.id file already in place.
I have tried to add two new series and each time it just goes through the usual "new show found" etc. I select the correct shows but nothing happens. I couldn't see any errors in the log either.
I decided to use dgaust's mytool utility to manually create the series.id file and just get a "not responding" error when trying to create the file.
I have now copied an existing series.id file and manually edited the show number; this works perfectly and the two shows have been added successfully.
Seems like a permissions issue but not sure what to do about it as everything including the userid is the same between my Vista and Windows 7 installations.
The other issue is when using the i key via iMon from the series/season selection menu. As well as getting the myTV popup menu; I keep getting a second box with Internet Security and Settings as the two options. If I go into Internet security the message below is shown:
Page Name:
Main Menu
Security:
This is not a secure page
Address:
resx://myTV/myTV.Resources/Helix
Any thoughts?
Thanks

You still need to create the netsh commands.... that's issue 1.
The not responding in myTV tools, is likely caused by a permissions error, although I'll admit I haven't tested it on a Win7 machine, so something might have changed that's causing it.
The info popup is a known bug, MS have taken active steps to stop a user using it. Use the # (or Shift-3) key instead.
Thanks for your help.
You are correct, I didn't do the netsh commands; I had assumed that as everything seemed to work (except for what I said) that all was OK. Just shows how wrong you can be!!
