problem with DVB Dream 1.3c on vista 32 and 46
1-problem with windows vista interface windows aero
2-big problem with Diseqc on lifeview card
3-remote control lifeview not support
4-error massege in windows vista (ddreg.bat)

5. Don't use windows Vista (piece of crap) either 32 or 64 bit versions.

You need to right click command prompt and select run as administrator, then goto the dvbdream folder and run ddreg or type "regsvr32 ddsource.ax". another option is to turn off the User Account Control security feature

The registration of DD filter under Vista has been explained several times on this forum but I will repeat the trick once again :

You have to run the DDReg.bat file after deactivating the UAC feature of Vista. To do so, one way is to do :

1/ Run MSCONFIG (from the command prompt or from the Control Pannel / Administrative Tools)

2/ Click on Tools

3/ Search for the line "Disable UAC" and click on it

4/ Reboot

5/ Run DDReg.bat

6/ Enable UAC the same way you disabled it (search for the line "Enable UAC")

Another way to disable/enable UAC... ( with screen shots )


Click on the link "Turn User Account Control on/off"

At next start you will probably notice this advice :


Et voilà

... I think you should be able to find the way to re-enable UAC on your own

Concerning the Aero interface, DD is not fully compatible so you have to deactivate it before running DD. You can totally deactivate it or simply modify the DD's shortcut in order to deactivate it at DD start and reactivate it at DD stop.
To do so : Right-Click on DD's shortcut - Select "Properties" - Click on "Compatibility" - Check the "Disable Desktop Composition" box
