related to | 0015176 | closed | Ludek | Playing from portable version to a renderer may fail (as portable version doesn't auto-conf firewall) |
related to | 0017209 | closed | Ludek | UAC prompt is shown after every re-install (also in Portable mode) |
related to | 0017219 | closed | Ludek | Blocked connection dialog is shown before user even accepts the import settings from MM4 dialog |
|
Just tried and elevator prompt appear only when clean install was run for a first time (because of Firewall setting). |
|
Can you see with Ludek if for MM5 we can move registering of firewall and starting DLNA server based on wizard settings? eg. If enabled then ask for UAC+start DLNA Server (includes if wizard is canceled as DLNA is enabled by Default). I think that essentially first time start experience would be same, but would also avoid non needed firewall rules created (just checked and I had over 50 rules created from various installations and during UI and portable tests i usually disable UPnP) Many users complained about MM5 portable asks for UAC permissions. |
|
I can confirm that MM is adding the firewall rules also in case of Portable (because of 0015176 ) But you seem to be true that currently MM is creating the rules even when no media server runs (sharing is disabled and user isn't using UPnP/DLNA access at all). => Fixed in 2277. i.e. MM now adds the firewall rules only on MM server start (when MM server is starting for sharing, syncing or a MM local file is played to a renderer). |

Verified 2277 No nagging UAC prompt now. |
