Windows 7 EOL - WMC Concerns

#1

Post by bam » Thu Dec 03, 2020 10:08 am

Windows 7 is EoL, which is not my concern. What I am worried about is when WMC will begin to break down. Is anyone familiar with e.g. the certificates used between WMC and extenders or WMC and InfiniTV? (Will e.g. an expired certificate suddenly leave my Xbox 360s dead in 2023?)

My WMC Windows 7 machine is a VM so I cloned it and set the date to December 2099. The Echo Extender and HDHR Prime still connected and played live TV just fine so hopefully that's a good sign.
