RE: Recording TV using Stream Buffer Sink on Vista

Hi James,

A guess of the problem would be that the specific problem is that the user
account does not have the permissions to write to the registry key or that
is used to hold the configuration settings for the sink filter, and/or the
file location for the backing files. I would also suspect that this can be
worked around by using IStreamBufferConfigure and IStreamBufferInitialize
to explicitly use a registry key that the user account has the permissions
to write to, and configuring a backing file directory that the user has
permissions to write to.

See the example from:
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms786785.aspx. In the sample,
they used HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, which I would not suspect a regular user
account would have rights to write to in Vista.

Hope the info will be of help. Thanks.

Sincerely,

WenJun Zhang
