CVI Windows driver to support LVRT(Pharlap OS)

Hello,
We are in process of converting one of our LXI product driver to support LVRT. The driver was originally written using CVI. Most of the driver calls were simply pass through and execute a remote procedures using ONC RPC drivers. ONC RPC and driver internally use winsock 2 and POSIX threads. We came to know that LVRT doesn't support winsock2(supports uses only 1.1) and RPC calls.
What is the better and quickest way for porting the driver? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated

I should add that without the update the Broadcom wireless adapter works fine with standard WPA or WPA-PSK but just did not have the WPA2 and WPA2-PSK options, which is how I had my router set up. There are 4 of us living here that share the router and did not want to have to reconfigure for WPA because of this issue.

Need HDCP-recognizing Bootcamp Windows driver for MacBook Pro's screen

I need a Bootcamp Windows driver for my MacBook Pro 15/Retina (MBR) that recognizes that the MBR's built-in screen in HDCP-compliant. The current Bootcamp drivers for Windows do recognized HDCP on an external HDMI-connected display, but do not recognized HDCP on the internal display.
BTW, I've read some statements that Windows drivers don't recognize HDCP via DisplayPort connections, so I wonder if Apple is using internal wiring that acts like it's a DisplayPort connection?
Please do not suggest things that only enable disabling DRM HDCP protection from Blu-Ray discs. I need a solution that to cooperate with DRM HDCP protection for content from live tuners, not from a Blu-Ray or DVD disc.
My application is using Windows Media Center (WMC) to play streaming content from my Silicon Dust HD HomeRun Prime (HDHR3) cable TV tuner on my MBR's built-in screen. This works fine with an external HDMI-connected (HDCP-capable) display, but I also want to get this working on my laptop's screen for when I'm stuck in bed (illness, bad back, etc.). The only application Silicon Dust offers for viewing HDHR3 tuner output on Windows (or any platform, as far as I know) which supports all protected cable channels is WMC, and WMC relies on the Apple-provided Windows NVIDIA drivers for HDCP capability. The NVIDIA Control Panel explicitly recognizes my external HDMI-connected monitor's HDCP capability, but does not recognize the MBR's internal screen has having any HDCP. This causes WMC to prevent the display of any TV channels at all from the HDHR3 when the only screen is the internal one (and it blocks DRM-protected channels if both screens are active in parallel).
I'm thinking that the best solution would be an NVIDIA driver for the built-in GeForce GT 650M for Windows 8 (or 7) which recognizes HDCP capability via DisplayPort. Is there anything like that? Or, alternately, some add-in driver that adds a layer of HDCP capability recognition to the standard drivers?
Is there any currently-available solution? . . . something that will enable the internal screen to play all the tuner's cable channels including DRM-protected ones (either on Bootcamp'ed Windows or on the OS X side)?
P.S. -- FYI, the only other potential app I've read about for using an external tuner with a MacBook is an OS X version of MythTV, but (a) that requires an excessively long list of geek tweek steps (install an SQL application, create an SQL database, do lots of command-line tweaks, add & configure a backend app and then a frontend app, ... ) and (b) even then it seems it doesn't support channels that aren't marked "copy-freely", i.e., HDCP-enabled DRM protected content.

Strange -- sig's comment seems gone now. I wonder why.
Anyway, I did try the latests NVidia drivers yesterday, afterall they explicitly say they added HDCP over DisplayPort, but no joy. In the NVidia control panel (for Windows), external displays via HDMI have a left-menu section for HDCP that explicitly shows it's working, but there is still no such indication for the internal display, and I am still unable to use WMC with HD HomeRun Prime cablecard tuner to play anything on the screen except channels that the provider marks "copy freely" (e.g., Bloomberg news channel 722 isn't playable, but MSNBC 723 is playable).
My guess is that maybe laptop internal displays don't explicitly have internal DisplayPort and HDCP technology but have some kind of exception that normally allows playback?
As an alternative I wish there were cablecard tuner playback software on the OS X side that could play more than "copy freely" cablecard-tuned material, but there doesn't seem to be anything comparable to Windows Media Player that supports that. (Now it should be clearer why this discussion belongs under MacBook Pro and not under Bootcamp where the moderators moved it.)

Import CVI Instrument Driver failure

Using the "LabVIEW Interface Generator for LabWindows/CVI Instrument Drivers" utility, I successfully converted (wrapped) an IVI-COM instrument driver for use with LabVIEW 8.2.1. However, I have a customer who insists on using LabVIEW 6.0. When I attempt to use the "Import CVI Instrument Driver" tool of version LabVIEW 6.0, I get a crash: Failure: "funcmenu.cpp", line 1873. (Specifically, the error occurs after pressing "OK" to the "CVI Function Panel Converter" dialog and selecting the DLL.) The pop-up suggests to navigate to www.ni.com/failure for assistance in resolving the problem, but when the proper data is entered in that web page, it errors also.
1. Is it possible to do what I'm attempting to do?
2. Any ideas on what is causing my problem?
Thanks

The import tool for CVI drivers only supported IVI-C with LabVIEW 6. If there is no IVI-C driver available, you might be able to write C wrappers around the IVI-COM functions or manually write all of the ActiveX calls to the IVI-COM driver.

Teststand call cvi instrument driver

I'm new to working with instrument drivers in TestStand. I'm trying to use TestStand to call a CVI instrument driver dll (for Agilent N5767 power supply), and then perform a specific function (init, set voltage, set current, etc.) All of the instruments in my test bench are connected via LAN, and they are configured in NI MAX too. I thought it was pretty straight forward, but I'm obviously missing something. Attached is the simple TS 3.1 seq file with the steps I'm trying perform.

Hi Bkoch1,
Please elaborate on the problem you are experiencing. I am able to open the sequence file you have attached and view your steps and on the surface, this seems like it should work just fine. What indications are you experiencing that it does not work fine? Have you tried setting breakpoints and using the Watch Window to monitor variables to ensure that they are being passed into the DLL? Please explain what the problem is and try to narrow down where the problem occurs and we would be happy to help you.

"Import CVI Instrument Driver" doesnt work when parameter is viSession pointer

Why does "Import CVI Instrument Driver" menu selection generate a LLB that has VIs which have not been generated correctly when a VI function parameter returns a ViSession pointer. The only one generated correctly was "initialize", however, "autoConnectToFirst" was not. They both have similar prototypes in the .FP file. When I look at the block diagram of the init VI, there is a "IVI New Session" control, but in "autoConnectToFirst", there isn't. Therefore the session returned in Labview is 0, but the session returned in C (through debugging) is a valid session.

The strict answer to "Why?" is because we only implemented the special initialization code for the Initialize function. "autoConnectToFirst" is optional in VPP 3.2, and we chose not to implement it as a special case.
You'll just need to fix the Call Library Node in your VI wrapper to use the proper prototype. I'm not sure how best to handle the "IVI New Session" call; it really expects both a name and viSession, and "autoConnectToFirst" doesn't seem to return the name of the resource it chose. The "IVI New Session" function is what tells LabVIEW how to connect the VISA (or IVI) resource names with your viSession. You could call "VISA Find Resource" to get the first name and see if it's a supported device; this is supposed to match what "autoConnectToFirst" does.
Along those lines, you might be better off implementing "autoConnectToFirst" yourself in LabVIEW. I.e., call "VISA Find Resource", and loop through the results calling your "Initialize" function until you don't get an error.
Let me pull up a soapbox for a moment...
There's a common misconception that "Import CVI Instrument Driver" creates a perfect LabVIEW wrapper around a VXIpnp WIN or IVI-C driver with no manual intervention. The reality is that you will almost always have to do some manual fixups of the converted driver.
In LabVIEW 7, we improved the converter somewhat, and converting an IVI-C driver is now a three-step process: pre-processing the IVI-C driver, importing into LabVIEW, and then doing some programmatic fixups of the results. The resulting wrapper is better than earlier versions of LabVIEW, but it's not uncommon that you will still have to manually fix something up to make it a good, usable wrapper.
That's why we consider "Import CVI Instrument Driver" to be a tool for instrument driver developers. If a vendor creates an instrument driver for an instrument in C, it doesn't make sense for each end user to have to create the LabVIEW wrapper, including all the manual fixups.
Of course, if a vendor wants the best LabVIEW connectivity, they should write a LabVIEW-based driver. But if they're going to only write C- or COM-based drivers, they should create and distribute high-quality LabVIEW wrappers and not force end users to figure out how to do it on their own.
My two cents.

Cannot create windows driver project

Hello,
I'm using Visual Studio 2013 Professional and I'm still in the trial period.
I'm attempting to create a windows driver project, however it's not available in my new project (File -> New -> Project) menu: http://imgur.com/Bk4afkI
I also have installed WDK 8.0 and the 8.1 update.
I can see the "Driver" drop-down menu: http://imgur.com/ovYBuHj

Hi,
Welcome to MSDN forum.
I am afraid that the issue is out of support range of VS General Question forum which mainly discusses the usage of Visual Studio IDE such as
WPF & SL designer, Visual Studio Guidance Automation Toolkit, Developer Documentation and Help System
and Visual Studio Editor.
I suggest opening a thread on Windows Hardware WDK and Driver Developmentforum like this thread with the same issue:

Video does not play: "Either windows doesn't support the item's file format......"

Error message
"Either windows doesn't support the item's file format or the content doesn't match the extension"
I have both a Yoga and a Thinkpad 2. The Yoga is running Win 8 and the Thinkpad 2 has 8.1 Preview.
I have copied multiple video files which are in either .avi or .mp4 containers.
Some will play and some will not. I have installed all sorts of codec packages and players and the problem is the same. I though it might be a container problem so I tried to convert the file and the converter I used did not work.
Searched the Internet and nothing really useful was found.
Then I discovered a common thread. In the files that played, the codec information displayed when checking in properties and the ones that did not play, did not have the information.
I have a video file on a USB flash drive and checked the properties and the information was there and I could play it from the flash drive. I copied it to my desktop and the file would not play. In checking, the codec information was not present.
There seems to be an error in copying files where the requisite codec information is not being transferred.
I have tried this multiple times and multiple permutations of transferring. Sometimes it will play from the desktop and will not play after transfer to the microSD card.
Each time when it plays, the information is there and each time it does not play, the information is not there.

Jabber 4.4 "Graphics card or driver not supported" error on one machine but not another.

Hi, I looked at the KB document but the email link on it no longer works.
I have two end-users using Jabber 4.4 on identical machines, same specs, same driver build and OS image. One gets the "Graphics card or driver not supported" error, the other does not.
We have two DellOptiPlex 7010's,
Both had 2 instances of AMD Radeon HD 7470 - they are dual monitor machines.
In both cases the driver version 8.922.0.0, Driver Date 12/6/2011. This is the latest Dell has on their website.
On one machine when I run a fresh install for Jabber for TelePresence 4.4 it works fine. But on another the user first gets
"supportabilitytest.exe has stopped working
A oriblem cause the program to stop working correctly. Please close the program."
Then when that's closed out we get:
"Graphics card or driver not supported!
New features in this version of Jabber Video are not supported by your computer's graphics driver.
Update to the newest graphics driver available and run Jabber Video again."
I can't believe it's just a matter of upgrading the drivers because in this case one machine with identical drivers works.
I appreciate any insights, thanks !

Hi ksouthall,
It sounds like the openGL supported version did not install on the one that is failing. There isn't much we can do regarding that error. Best practice is to always upgrade to the latest manufacturer's available driver. Client requirements are below.
Windows 7 (32-bit or 64-bit), Vista, or XP (SP 2 or newer), with OpenGL 1.2 or newer.
For 720p HD video calls, Intel Core2Duo @ 1.2GHz or better.
For VGA video calls, Intel Atom @ 1.6GHz or better.
Webcam, built-in or external. You need an HD webcam if you want other callers to see you in HD.
Broadband Internet connection with a recommended bandwidth of 768kbps upstream and downstream. You need about 1.2Mbps upstream and downstream for 720p HD video calls.

Jason

ITunes does not release windows drive allocation

I have just installed iTunes version 10.7.0.21 after which I did a restore of my iPod Shuffle 4 (software version 1.0.1). After the restore iTunes no longer releases the Windows drive letter allocation. As a consequence of this the Shuffle’s light continuously blinks amber indicating the device is being accessed. Therefore it is not possible to determine when the battery has been fully recharged. Prior to doing this update iTunes would release the drive letter allocation after the sync was complete so that the light was either steady amber of green after charging was complete.
Is there some setting that I have messed up or is this a defect in the software?

I've seen other post about this issue. Im not sure of any one fix but I can offer afew steps to try and fix it.
Scan the system with your antivirus program. Next Scan for malware ( A general term for adware and spyware ) with your perssonal malware scanner or Ewido http://www.ewido.com Id also recommend scanning with windows chkdisk. TO access this in Windows XP goto "My Computer, rightclick the drive windows is on (Usually C Drive) hit properties>Tools tab. Under "Error Checking" hit check now. on the pop up check "Auto fix system file errors" and hit OK. You will get another pop up just hit "yEs" and restart the PC to start it.
Try going here http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/index.aspx?c=us&l=en&s=gen and enter your tag or PC modle and download all updates they offer, especailly patches revolving around iTUnes, BIOs and things
You can also try uninstalling iTUnes AND quicktime by going to control panel>add and remove. Uninstalling WILL NOT loose any music or playlist. After your done disable antivirus and security programs, goto apple.com and download/install iTUnes again

OfficeJet Pro 8000 no borderless printing on card stock via Windows driver

I just setup the OfficeJet Pro 8000 wireless printer the other day with the intent to print borderless cards on card stock. I can print anything to it without issue however if I attempt to use borderless mode the Windows driver does NOT allow any paper type other than photo or glossy borchure types.
If I print anyway on card stock it looks ink soaked and muddy. If I print on their recommeded types it looks fine but a card needs heavy card stock, not med or light paper weights.
If I do not select borderless, the print (on card stock) has a dredded border but the print quality is fine.
The driver will not allow even a "normal" or "draft" borderless on standard paper types. Is there a hack or modification to allow me to print borderless on any paper?

Does Microsoft SQL Server 2k JDBC Driver SP3 support "trusted connections"?

I get the following error when attempting to connect to a SQL Server instance via JDBC :-
[Microsoft][SQLServer 2000 Driver for JDBC][SQLServer]Login failed for user '<username>'. Reason: Not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection.
Does Microsoft SQL Server 2000 JDBC SP3 Driver support "trusted connections"?

No, the MSDE instance I'm trying to connect to from my J2 application is configured as "Integrated Windows Authentication" ONLY (i.e not "mixed mode" and deliberately so) hence my search for a JDBC driver that supports o/s-based authentication.
I appear to have found one now however at it appears that DataDirect's JDBC driver supports NTLM and Kerberos authenicaiton on Windows (although I haven't got it working yet).
Thanks for your reply tho'

P6N SLI Platinum, audio driver update gives "No Driver was supported..."

I have the audio driver from the CD that came with the mobo, but I wanted to update it to the new version. Currently I have R1.67 2.32, I tried to install the driver (R1.83 2.51) from http://global.msi.com.tw/index.php?func=downloaddetail&type=driver&maincat_no=1&prod_no=1140 but get the message "No Driver was supported in this driver package".
Also, I went to the Realtek site and got their even newer driver R1.84 but it asked me to remove the previous driver first, I'd rather check with the boards first to see what is going on.

Another off topic question. Does the Dual Core Center work ok with Vista x64? Wondering just in case before I get to using it. On my first Vista install is seemed to work, 2nd format it would come up with 2 error messages and not start:
"Error! unable to load ntuneoem.dll" and "Failed to load overclocking driver! This program must run as an administrator."
I have ntune installed on my 2nd format (which I found out doesn't work in Vista 64 properly) but cannot uninstall it from Add/Remove. A wizard window comes up and closes in the same seconds when I click uninstall. Tried to uninstall using the MSI CD which with I loaded it, still gives an error (tried to google the error msg but the msg is extremely rare and doesn't point to the problem). Going to have to manually remove it it seems and hope I get it all.

Installing Windows Driver Framework.

I've just bought a couple of new servers running Windows 2012, I'm stuck trying to shift a guest Hyper V machine from our old Windows 2008 server. I can copy the machine over OK, but I cannot get the updated Hyper-V integration services installed.
On running the new integration services, it throws up a dialogue and I can see it updates the HAL, but then seems to be stuck in a loop saying "Installing Windows Driver Framework". The guest O/S is SBS2008. I have established that this
isn't just a 2012 issue for me, as see the exact same issue if I shift the guest to a spare Windows 2008 R2 system (running Enterprise). The source system where the guest is running quite happily and has done for 3 years is 2008 R2 standard.
Worth adding that I also seem unable to add a legacy network adapter, and the guest server is bang up to date with regard to windows updates.
This has stopped my migration dead in its tracks and also given me big doubts over our backup strategy. Can anyone give me any pointers here please?

Hi,
Maybe this is by design.
I search MS article database and I found that Small Business Server 2008 do support to be installed in Windows Server 2008 with the Hyper-V server role enabled or Microsoft Hyper-V Server 2008.
But Small Business Server 2008 is not listed in Windows Server 2008R2 or Windows Server 2012 supported guest operating system list. The support SBS version is Windows Small Business Server 2011 Essentials and Standard version.
You may upgrade your Windows Small Business Server 2008 to Windows Small Business Server 2011, and then you can install integration service. Or you should keep the Windows Small Business Server 2008 in a Windows Server 2008 based Hyper-V environment.
For more information please refer to following MS articles:

My macbook air keeps on saying Microsoft windows are not supported on os x...what do i do?

my macbook air keeps on saying that windows does not support OS X
what do i do?

Windows on Intel Macs
There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
   1. Install the Apple Boot Camp software. Purchase Windows
         XP w/Service Pak2, Vista, or Windows 7. For Boot Camp
         4.0 and above you can only use Windows 7 or later. Follow
         instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on
         installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and
         installing Windows. Boot Camp enables you to boot the
         computer into OS X or Windows.
     2. Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business,
         Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7. Parallels is software
         virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently
         with OS X.
     3. VM Fusion and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate,
         or Windows 7. VM Fusion is software virtualization that
         enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
     4. CrossOver which enables running many Windows
         applications without having to install Windows. The
         Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
     5. VirtualBox is an Open Source freeware virtual machine such
         as VM Fusion and Parallels that was developed by Solaris.
         It is not as fully developed for the Mac as Parallels and VM
         Fusion.
Note that VirtualBox, Parallels, and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc. There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization. The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system. See MacTech Labs- Virtualization Benchmarks, January 2013 | MacTech for comparisons of Boot Camp, Parallels, and VM Fusion. Benchmarks of all of the above except Crossover can be found in Benchmarking Parallels, Fusion, and VirtualBox Against Boot Camp - The Mac Observer. Boot Camp is only available with Leopard or later. Except for Crossover and a couple of similar alternatives like DarWine you must have a valid installer disc for Windows.
You must also have an internal optical drive for installing Windows. Windows cannot be installed from an external optical drive.

P35 Neo 2 Fr - SATA drives not supported ?!?

I have just screwed together my new PC.
Motherboard : MSI P35 Neo 2 FR
CPU : Intel E6850
Mem: 2GB DDR2 800
Drives (2x): Seagate 250GB SATA
Windows: Vista Home Premium OEM (dutch)
It is a totaly clean install.
Problem is: When installing VISA it stops at the drive selection. It tells me (translate from Dutch): "the hardware of this computer possibly does not support the booting of this harddrive. Check that the drive controller is switched on in the BIOS"
When i'm in the bios (1.4) all seems well.
What to do?
EDIT: stangely, Seagate says on its site that : Seagate hard drives do not require any special drivers for Microsoft Windows operating systems. The generic hard drive driver should support your hard drive. We recommend using the latest Windows Service Pack (SP) updates as these often refresh the Windows drivers
This makes is hard to do a (what i have been reading)"F6 Disc & install driver" solution. Or are there non-brand specific sata drivers.
Help!

It was not my intention of installing the drives in Raid. I started out setting as AHCI.
Later on i tried setting as raid as MSI does have a driver for SATA Raid (on their site and on the supplied driver disc), unfortunately no success.
I think i must admit defeat. Tomorrow morning i will purchase a new IDE drive and install VISTA on this. I have the feeling it should then be easy to access the SATA drives.
Off topic (not really) : i downloaded the Seagate DiscWizard on my existing pc. This promises to solve all these kind of problems. But it refused to start because it needed at least one Seagate product installed on my pc. Hahahaha, of course my old pc is fitted with WD drives. Not very useful from Seagate.
Off topic 2: roll over bios, we need EFI
