I alos notice that I have these two NPVR files in my user directory:

The "NPVR" directory was v4 and earlier. The "NPVR-data" directory is v5 and later.

Can you scroll up that installservice.bat and get another screenshot, so we can see what happened earlier?

64bit. I thought that I downloaded the 64 bit version.

I can try again.

Sub,

I redownloaded the version 64bit of version 5 and I get the same result, with the same DOS window when trying to install the service as an admin. Still no joy.

Had the same problem with installservice.bat on WIN7, the following needs to be changed for Win 7 to be happy

Code:

netsh.exe advfirewall firewall add rule name="NextPVR" dir=in action=allow program="installpath%Client\NextPVR.exe" enable=yes > nul
to
netsh.exe advfirewall firewall add rule name="NextPVR" dir=in action=allow program="%installpath%Client\NextPVR.exe" enable=yes > nul

Add % before installpath

Code:

sc create "NextPVR Service" binpath="%installpath%NextPVRService.exe" start=delayed-auto
to
sc create "NextPVR Service" binpath= "%installpath%NextPVRService.exe" start= delayed-auto

Add a space after the = signs

My copy of Win7 is still not happy. Even with your changes it didn't enter the service. Thanks for trying.

If you start a command prompt (using 'run as administrator'), change to the nextpvr directory, and run the following, what output do you get?

sc create "NextPVR Service" binpath="C:\Program Files\NPVR\NextPVRService.exe" start=delayed-auto
