Since our hdhomerun.dll is very old I build a new one from the current source:
http://xbmc.org/trac/ticket/6615
It would be nice if users with hdhomerun can test and report:
1) does it work at all?
2) does the new dll work better or worse?

Just download the trac attachment and copy it in your XBMC/system directory.
Thanks,
WiSo

Works for me. This is the first time I've ever tried using HDHomeRun in XBMC though.

In case anyone else was wondering, here's some instructions from the Silicondust forums:

Is this a good place to link to an HDHomeRun FAQ?

Thanks for testing :nod:
You can link a faq or write it in XBMC Tips, Tricks, and HOW-TO (Step-by-Step Guides)

Hi,
Not sure if you've gotten any other feedback, but I was having trouble with the current build of XBMC for windows not playing any of the HDHomeRun streams. I changed the hdhomerun.dll to the one you posted and it works perfectly!

The error I had before was something like: "CDVDPlayer::OpenInputStream - error opening..."

HDHomeRun Firmware: 20090415
XBMC Version: 9.04.1-repack2
OS: Windows Vista SP2

Thanks!
