InfiniTV & Windows 8
General release of Windows 8 is tomorrow, October 26th, and were sure many of you are as excited to upgrade as we are. However, we do not recommend that InfiniTV customers upgrade to Windows 8 quite yet.
We expected that the Media Center feature would be included in the Release to Manufacturing (RTM) version of Windows 8 when it was made available to Microsoft partners in August but it was not. In fact, it was just released this morning, so we are only now able to start our final testing.
While our current Windows 7 driver does work relatively well with the current version of Windows 8, it has not been fully tested and is not supported for use with Windows 8. Testing of the InfiniTV driver for Windows 8 is progressing well and should be released to Beta shortly. Please stay tuned for more details.
Upgrade Considerations
If you plan to upgrade to Windows 8 once the InfiniTV driver is available, there are a couple of things to keep in mind:
Copy-Protected Content: Please be aware that copy-protected content is tied to the specific installation of Windows that made the recordings. To preserve copy-protected recordings you must upgrade directly from Windows 7 and not perform a clean installation of Windows 8. If you backup copy-protected recordings from Windows 7 and transfer them to a clean installation of Windows 8, your copy-protected recordings will no longer be viewable. That is the way copy-protected content is handled by Windows regardless of what brand of CableCARD tuner you used to make the recordings.
Network Tuner Support: The InfiniTV network tuner bridging feature will not be available in Windows 8. If you use network tuners you should not upgrade.
Thanks,
