 ==== App won't access DVR on same PC ====
+<WRAP indent>
 By default, Windows 10 blocks Windows Store apps from communicating with other apps/services on the same PC. This can prevent the Windows 10 app from finding a DVR running on the same PC. The HDHomeRun installer changes a setting that should bypass this issue.

+==== Multiple drives on Windows for DVR ====
+<WRAP indent>
+A third party program such as StableBit DrivePool can be used for Windows that creates a single large filesystem (NTFS or ReFS) from multiple hard drives. You can easily expand the filesystem by adding more drives as you want more space - perfect for DVR use.
+DrivePool: https://stablebit.com/
+To work with HDHomeRun DVR you need DrivePool version 2.2.3.946 or newer.
