This is not normally a problem, however, this has happened to be twice this month, and once it happens any video library I have is now gone. Is there any way to back up licenses so you can restore them in the event MC goes bad?
Cable TV in my area is provided by COX, and unfortunately they
encrypt every channel except for PBS. In the last couple of months I
have had inexplicable glitches that resulted in Media Center loosing
it's licences for TV shows that I had previously recorded. When this
happens I can't play TV in Media Center using my Silicon Dust network
Tuner, and all the encrypted TV shows that were recorded are now
inaccessible. I usually have to work through a troubleshooting
process involving the reinstall of Media Center Playready, and
success with MC always results in a loss of any existing licensing.
Even when I image the hard drive, and restore it, the licenses are
still gone. This makes the idea of building a video library with MC impossible.
