Hi Haslam,
· Are you able to play the same video with windows media player?
· What is the extension of the file you are trying to play?
Try to play the video by using another application and verify that it is. If so, you need to maybe update codec on your computer and check if it works.

Is there a file where are stored the data pause & rewind live TV in Windows Media Center?
Is there a file where are stored the data pause & rewind live TV in Windows Media Center? More to the point - how can I save the time shift buffer in WMC?
I would like to know if it is possible to find the data that Windows Media Center is to store during her watch TV Online. I don't speak data WMC stores by itself to allow the use of the function of pause & rewind live TV, how to find files that you have saved yourself by pressing the Red record button.
For example, I often live TV playing on the computer in the background while I do something else. Can I see or hear a brief fact/clip/segment of interest that flashes by and I think, ' I wish I had recorded that. " If I go back to the bit I wanted to capture and hit record, it will not capture the part I want, it will start recording from the point, the program has achieved in real time.
Does anyone know where the actual data of the TV are kept so that I can retrieve these clips that interest me, but were never recorded by me manually? I found the "TempRec" in the folder "Recorded TV" - anyone know how to convert this video (if indeed it is the location where you store temporary data for pause & rewind live TV)?
If not, is it possible to enable a feature in WMC, which automatically starts the recording of TV channels as soon as you go to them? This way I can record everything, then just cut all the scenes of interest using Movie Maker. If not, are there other Win7 compatible programs that will do this?
Thank you.
Apparently, there is a way to achieve the goal.
A nice gentleman from the Germany wrote dll that create a "time-shift buffer recording" add-in for WindowsMedia
Center (for Vista and XP only) which can be found at:http://thegreenbutton.com/forums/p/3...83.aspx#162083
For Windows 7, there would currently be via a 3rd party of program, i.e. PowerCinema 6, which records from any point in the time shift buffer zone - I don't know why Microsoft has not also incorporated this feature into WMC for have other programs third 3rd (including EyeTV for the Mac).
Unfortunately, suggestions from another forum to change file extensions in .tmp .dvr-ms TempSBE and double-click on the file to read the file of time lag in WMC, does not work in Windows 7 x 64 (the message in this forum has been regarding the Vista x 64), however, I have not tried with other versions of Windows - I would like to know if anyone has had some luck using this method.
Even if it had worked, I think I would have always preferred the usability and features of a program that does the job for me, like Power Cinema - damage, it could not have been WMC. What do you think?
Thank you.

I had the misfortune I had to replace my hard drive on my Toshiba laptop after reinstalling my Windows 7 Ultimate disc, I find that I am unable

Open your Start menu by pressing the Windows key and type FEATURES in the search box. Select 'Windows turn features on or off ". When the Panel opens, expand the category "Media Features" and place a check in the box "Windows Media Center". You may need to restart after Windows reconfigures itself.

Why are all my icons windows media center?
OK, so I have more than 50 programs on my computer, but something went wrong. All my programs have the icon of windows media center. So, when I click on a program, that he doesn't even go to this specific programme, it goes automatically to windows media center. It's really aggravating. So can you guys please answer. I tried to fix this problem, but its very frustrating and I am a very busy man.
... All my programs have the icon of windows media center...
I've seen this happen when opening a program via a shortcut (for example. LNK file), you are asked what type of program to open it with. After selecting the Windows Media Center (or another program) via the Select a program from a list of programs installedand check always use the selected program to open this type of file (circled in red below), the document or program referenced by the shortcut of origin opens in Windows Media Center as it should.
The problem is that now all shortcuts (for example. LNK files) on the desktop or in the browser will want to be opened by Windows Media Center and Windows Media Center icon to view the shortcut no matter what shortcut was originally intentioned to open. This is known as a file association and the default icon. The same condition can occur if you have performed these actions 'Open with' on one. JPG or even a. EXE, but the. LNK explanation is much more likely for the items on the desktop.
The good news is that a small free utility was written to cancel the. LNK file association was created. There is also a registry hack to achieve, but I recommend the utility unAssoc for its ease of use. I used to send people on another site to download this utility, but this site has become confused with all the ads and fake download links. I put a copy on by SkyDrive own here.
Just download, then use the utility to unassociate the. For the user or the Windows type world and LNK files, allowing to delete the file , rebuild a new default.

Original title: Windows Media Center has suddenly stopped being able to see tuners.
I am running Windows Media Center and have a 6 Ceton infinitv tuner connected to my network. Since a few weeks things have worked very well. Now suddenly after installing a faster wifi adapter, I get messages such as unable to find tuner or all tuners are busy... who don't feel like I can always go to the tuner by Explorer or chrome, by typing the address of it and it arises but also shows that it is set on the channels that I am no longer watching. Any ideas on why WMC is suddenly acting when the only thing I did was install an a6200 netgear adapter, nothing has changed.

Hello
Looking for help on this one...
I have a new install of windows 7 pro running, and I was not able to get the guide to download Windows Media Center. I am up-to-date with all the updates and SP1 version running. My video card drivers are also updated.
I use HDHOMERUN PRIME equipment with cablecard and who receives a TV signal very well and I am able to view it in WMC. I use Verizon FIOS and my zip code is 07452. Before this computer, I ran the cablecard even with a ceton infinitv and had no problem Guide at all.
It's just that I can't download the guide data. Its just totally blank. I receive the channels and view them, but there is NO data. Whenever I run the TV setup the same question comes up. Cannot download the initial configuration data due to the error of previous download. As far as I know, there is NO error message when Windows installed... actually... I reinstalled windows completely and this has not solved the problem. I tried to manually download the guide which did not help. It... nothing happened when I turned 'on' and 'off' WMC in Control Panel to reinstall. I even tried explore the ehome folder and remove the file db... but nothing is helping.
I can't find a file mcupdate.exe light on my system - don't know if this is relevant. When I looked in the event viewer here are some of the error messages that I see.
Impossible to extract the EpgLineups (error: unable to connect to the remote server)
Impossible to extract the MCEClientUX (error: unable to connect to the remote server)I'm starting to think it's a matter of windows. Anyone have any ideas?

Hello
Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site!
How long have you had this problem?All files compatible photo in your library in Windows will appear in Media Center, including whatever it is stored in the folder my pictures or public photo. If you store images somewhere else, like an external hard drive, you can add them to the Media Center as well. To learn how, see Add files to media in Windows Media Center.
The following is a list of reasons why an image will not display in Media Center, as well as suggestions for correcting the problem.
The picture file type is not supported in Media Center. For example, some digital camera photos are saved in the RAW file format, which is not supported in Media Center. If you have a photo editing software, try to open the picture in that program, and then resaving in a file type that is supported (for example, JPEG). To see what types of files are supported in Media Center, see file types supported by Windows Media Center.
The file is corrupted. If this is the case, try to open the image in another photo editing program, and then save it back into a different file type. For more information on the damaged files, see the files corrupted: frequently asked questions.
The file is hidden. You can view a hidden file by changing its properties in Windows. For more information, see Show hidden files.
