Yeah I did try that , it timed out on me. I’m thinking I have missed something here. My Dual Lite Tablo had no issues with the Ripper. With the Dual HDMI there may have a way , but I have not figured it out yet if it does.
OK it works now. I have no idea why , but I went back and tried 2 times to input the IP only to watch it fail. I rebooted my PC ( for other issues ) and went back to try again. Third time was the charm. It works just fine and the Ripper is back on line. Why it didn’t work the first few tries I have no idea. It does however work now. It can’t search and find it , but IP input does work. Being stubborn does pay off sometimes. Thank you all for the replies and help.
Now that the issues is resolved… I’m thinking almost everyone? A screen shot from the setting tab
That’s kind’a what it is - Tablo Connect = Remote Access / Remote Access = Tablo Connect
I may come across as a dudu 
head pointing out things which are other wise semantics, particularly with tech – words really do matter.
Glad you got things working. Fingers crossed it stays that way 
Thanks CycleJ
Now if only I can get the Tablo tools to work. 
Continuing the discussion from Windows 10 Exception Error:
@CycleJ some of the confusion may be:
- Final/Stable
Although there is a newer version… there’s no dates. There may be some misunderstanding the next higher may be testing or beta version. A user would want the stable version… final build. Not knowing there was anything needing fixed.
Yes, conventional logic would take the highest version, but “final/stable” could be misleading for some.
Sorry for the confusion. At the time I wanted to be really clear that there’s no new development. But then I took an educated guess at fixing a TLS connection problem created by a Tablo upgrade, and voila, a new “final” version was born. This time it’s really done.
Actually I quoted the wrong post… moving it to your Tablo Ripper thread -
It appeared they got the “wrong” version. I wondered why, then looked at the page… I would have gotten the highest version - but the one does say “Final/Stable” and some users may figure that’s what they want.
Sorry for the misunderstanding.
Good suggestion. I edited the download notes to hopefully make things clearer.
I put in the static IP but it still shows no Tablo Recordings after initializing. I have tried both WiFi and LAN connections. Installation work fine. The Tablo does not appear on the dropdown list. It appears the Tablo Dual HDMI is piece of junk.
Your Tablo does not work with your TV?
Do you have a Guide Subscription?
Just widely speculation, you need a subscription to stream from an HDMI tablo (even within your house on your local network).
Although it’s been confirmed Tablo Ripper does work, it’s not clear if you need a subscription to get the device to even “stream”.
If you do have the subscription, then, there’s other trouble shooting options before concluding “piece of junk” at this point I hope.
Using a static ip address bypasses the tablo “list”, so it’s normal for that to remain empty.
Does TabloRipper “connect” to your tablo? You might want you enable logging, restart TabloRipper, then look at the log file for errors.
I finally spent the afternoon redoing my entire entertainment center and the MVidia Shield works fine over LAN. It is much faster then using the Tablo Dual itself.
The problem is not LAN. The are doing something to disable any device that does not use their app. I doubt ota2go work either.
I still have an active subscription but it is pretty useless service.
Mine is sent to my NVR and I change the HDMI source with it. I have the Tablo on HDMI3 and now the NVidia Shield Pro on HDMI4.
Where are preferences stored? I wish to manually delete them.
I am having major issues trying to get Tablo Ripper to load the videos on my Tablo (which it does see). It tries to list them but either nothing happens and I hit cancel, or it just eventually freezes.
So I uninstalled and re-installed, but my previous settings were still there. So I guess my preferences did not go away in the uninstall. I would like to manually delete them. They are nothing special and at this point, I am trying to rule out everything including corrupted preferences.
Thank you.
C:\ProgramData\TabloRipper\Settings.xml
Yea, Windows let’s uninstall/re-install isn’t really the fix people are lead to believe it is… if the configurations, which may or may not be the issue remains intact. Many of Windows applications have cryptic settings in the binary registry hives yet 
Thanks, but it’s not working. I even deleted the pref files from ProgramData and did a fresh install. And edited the Settings again. It still just says “load recording list, Initializing” and then nothing more happens. The popup goes away.
At least it stopped crashing so… yay? Thanks, tho.
It sees my Tablo, so something else is wrong. It worked fine for months.
Step #1 is always enable logging, exit, and restart TabloRipper. Once it fails, take a look at the log file (scroll to the bottom and look at what just happened).
If the problem isn’t obvious, let me know.
