Awesome!

Hi colspeed,

That's amazing detective work! I didn't even know VLC had a library feature, so I probably would have failed to help you much. I'm so glad you found the solution, and a big thanks for sharing it back with all of us!!!

I'm not sure I would recommend Power DVD, even though that's what I ...

Ahhh, yes, firewall config. I had wondered if you were thinking of the firewall tutorials. If that's what you're looking for, you can find them here in the CCC subforum:

Hi colspeed, and welcome!

Can you post a screenshot of when the error message displays?

First, for a brief moment let ...

The known disappearing TV series issue was addressed in CMC v8. This was caused by My Movies changing the TV Series Stars Rating from a 0-10 value (representing 0-5 Stars in half-star increments) to -1. CMC had a bug in that series with -1 values were ignored, making them disappear from the GUI. CMC ...

I'm still running 5.40, or at least I think I am. I run MM and CCC inside a virtual machine on my NAS server, and the SSD they were on died a few weeks ago, and I haven't recovered yet. (Side rant, that's now 3 dead Samsung SSD's due to bad firmware on the SSD's. I used to swear by them, but I didn ...

Wow, that's a lot to digest.

First, the UAC / Running as Administrator, I don't recall that being a requirement for CCC. You do have to start CMC in Admin mode in order to reprogram the WMC IR remote control buttons, but beyond that I don't think there's ever a need for it on any other programs ...
