Can't Install on Windows7

Postby Ylinen » Sat Jan 17, 2009 4:00 pm

I tried to install on Windows7 build 7000. Getting an error that the OS is not Vista Premium or Ultimate. Tried to use the application compatibility troubleshooter, but that did not help.

thanks for bringing this up. we are currently working on a w7 compliant version, and will release it in the next couple of weeks.

Hi,

I just wanted to say thanks for bringing bt to microsoft media center.

Do you have a planned release date for the windows 7 version?

Thanks again,

thanks sognen. we don't yet have a planned release date, since we've learned that m-soft may change some of the version naming codes towards the official release. in any case, it's a minor install issue and we expect to handle that soon after the official w7 release at the latest.

I just want to let you know birsch that I'm also on W7 now and that I miss tvitty very much... Please release an alpha-testing-it-should-work-on-W7 version soon!

It's been well over a year since we last heard from you. Any plans to release a Win 7 version?

So, I got it working on Windows 7. I used this tool - http://www.technipages.com/download-orc ... ditor.html to edit the msi file and prevent it from checking the OS version. What you need to do is to run the installer once, then go to this location c:\users\"username"\app data\local\temp and find the tvitty folder (sort the folder by date and look for the newest one), then use Orca to edit the tvitty.msi file. Once you do that, it'll install on Win 7 just fine.
