I saw something similar to this post in the forums, but they were all several years old and I wanted to see whether there was something a bit more current.
I am running Windows 8.1 and using the free version of Desktop. I know Tivo says it won't support the free version on W8.1, but I also know others have been able to use it. I am able to transfer shows from my Tivo Premiere XL4 to my laptop, but when I try to play any of them, I get only audio -- no visual. I've Googled this extensively and everyone keeps pointing me to a CNet download (the message board isn't letting me post the link but it's "Media Player Codec Pack" on the CNet download site). It's highly rated both by CNet and users, but when I tried to download it, my antivirus flagged it as a trojan. I have a brand-new computer, so of course I'm leery of downloading something that will harm it.
My question is, where should I go to download something safe that will fix the codec errors I'm having? I've read some horrible things about K-Lite (or whatever it's called), so I'm a little leery of it. I'm not overly techy as far as going into the registry or whatever and changing settings -- I'd be afraid to do that.
Can someone recommend something that's safe and that will fix this issue? I'd really appreciate it...
Thanx,
Jamie
