I had it configured the first time I tried this, which behaved exactly the same, but I've completely uninstalled and reinstalled everything since then, and this time around I've decided not to use Guide Services.

I've not enabled the MCE Guide Services this time. Have done the Bridgeconfig setup, and added a lineup to the source (only using one this time). If anyone has got HD-PVR or Colossus to work in WMC 10 then I would love to hear about what I've missed! So short of trying to remap channels via hand crafted MXF, I think I'm out of options. I might try the latest version of DVBLink Server, but I'd be very surprised if the old 1Geek1Tool bridge driver would be compatible with that. (GuideTool doesn't even enable the Add Channel button, and Guide Editor fails with an error when trying to create channels in the DVBLink Channel lineups.) I've also tried to manually create channels using other applications: Guide Tool and Guide Editor, both which failed. I've also tried the DVBLink and 1Geek1Tool Bridge driver, and again the device installs into WMC, but DVBLink can't create any channels! But I was using the old version of DVBLink (4.0) which came out before WMC 8, so it clearly won't work with the channel mapping changes. I've tried the Hauppauge WMC driver, which installs OK and appears to work according to the Hauppauge control software, but I can't create any channels in WMC. Hauppuage's position seems to be that the mapping changes are too much work for them to bother (see GreenButton thread and Microsoft Forum thread). I've been trying for days to resurrect the setup that I had working in Windows 7 (Colossus and HD-PVR both working through DVBLink and the 1Geek1Tool Bridge device driver) only to realise that apparently the channel mapping is different between WMC 7 and WMC 8/10. Has anybody had any success with HD-PVR or Colossus devices in WMC 10?
