Ok I bought wintv and it's still doing the same thing. I'm back on my older machine and updated nextpvr which i shouldn't because it's showing an unhandled exception error when I open the desktop app.  I uninstalled nextpvr and removed everything to see if that would work but it's still doing it.  It's big red X across the app and this is what is says in the error box. Is there anyway to downgrade? Like I said, it was working great before I upgraded...Thanks!

See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

It's basically saying you video card doesn't support opengl. You're not trying to access it via Remote Desktop?

Yes, for now you'll likely need to create your self a shortcut which adds the '-nogl' parameter. After that it'll just be a regular icon you can click.

Not remote, directly on the computer. It worked before unless the newer version is using something different. I'll check that out. It's till strange why it won't work on my newer computer. Oh well, thanks for the help!

Yes, it has changed. The application used to use "system.drawing" (with Direct2D) for rendering the user interface. Microsoft is dropping support for this, and it wont be available in any new versions of .NET. We've moved the user interface to "Skia" (with OpenGL), which is what Microsoft is recommending these days
