I cannot get NPVR to work with my new Windows 8 computer. I have installed and uninstalled several times. I have copied old settings files, etc. to C:\users\public\npvr. I have installed the R2 patch and removed the patch. NPVR just sits there with a black screen and even F1 does not bring up any program guide or anything. It is just dead. I scanned for my channels, but nothing works beyond that. Thank you for any help you can provide - my logs are attached. BTW, the settings screen says it cannot find DirectX - I don't know why as I have DirectX 11 pre-installed on the computer (verified with dxdiag).
UPDATE: I am now able to get audio but no video picture. I installed AC3 Filter and changed the settings to recognize it. I didn't have audio before - now I do.
UPDATE NEXT DAY: upon waking I went back into Decoders and set the MPEG2 Video and H.264 Video decoders to Cyberlink Video Decoder (PDVD10) and now I have video. But apparently now my audio (AC3 Filters) skips and stutters at times. I will have to play with it some more to see if it can be fixed. Apparently setting the video decoders to Microsoft, which was the default, will not work.
