CU update edition 1703 -- my HDMI capture device no longer works
Hi there
My HDMI capture device no longer works with CU update -- just get a blue screen and the signal input (Video IN) LED shows flashing yellow (DRM / unable to pass thru signal instead of constant and steady Blue - signal OK).
I loaded up a W7 VM and no problem !!! even though running on a VM is not the best for that type of intensive hardware usage --it worked though. Device was recognized and started recording just fine.
Did a test revert back to previous W10 edition -- also working perfectly.
There's something I think in the latest CU update which probably tries to rigidly enforce DRM via HDMI output-- I do wish the people at Hollywood / BBC / other places would realize that - especially if you travel -- you should be able to record stuff from TV and play it at your OWN convenience -- we're not talking about piracy here -- I mean you'd have to be BONKERS to record say 7 hrs of video for example in real time just to upload the stuff to a torrent site !!!
I'm often away and a lot of the "TV Catchup stuff" has limited duration and also if you want decent subtitling --forget it.
Cheers
