• Windows Media Center TV tuner not recognized

  MEDIA CENTER TV tuner

  Our computer does not recognize the TV tuner, it says that the region (Canada) is not possible, even if we were watch and record the TV for two years. We took the tour get served today and the technician could not find anything wrong, that he hung the Tower while I was in the store and everything worked very well he played TV programs that we previously recorded on the computer. On their return, I hooked the tower to have the same problem until I took the tour of duty please help with advice.

  Hi Kimberly MacDonald,.

  1. What is the full error message that you receive?

  I suggest that you reconfigure the TV signal in the media center of Windows and check if it works.

  one) to configure the tuner for use with Windows Media Center, on the Start screen, navigate to tasks.

  (b) click settings, click TV, and then click Set Up TV Signal.

  (c) follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation.

• Windows Media Center learned remote control cable, cannot recognize the Windows Media Center remote control

  Running Vista Home Premium 64-bit.  I rent a cable box so I can get some programs at the 3-digit level.  When I've set up my Windows Media Center (WMC), WMC learn successfully the cable box remote 1 - channel upward.  My problem is the next step and change the channel using the Windows Media Center remote control or keyboard.  My keyboard or the WMC remote will change the channel.

  I got Windows Media Center to re - learn the cable box remote control twice, which is always successful, but again once, when the time comes to use the Windows Media Center remote control or my keyboard to change the channel, the channel does not change.

  Could someone please help me with this?  Thank you in advance.

  Hey kansascitykid,

  If you receive your TV signal through a set-top box and Media Center is unable to change the channel, or it changes channels incorrectly, check the following:

  ·        The infrared diffuser is connected to your remote control receiver. If the infrared diffuser is not connected, Media Center cannot send a signal to the set-top box to change a channel.

  ·        The infrared diffuser is well positioned at the front of the set - top box. If you are having trouble placing the IR blaster on the set - top box correctly, try to use a flashlight to locate the signal on the set - top box receiver.

  ·        IR control codes are configured correctly. If constantly changing channels, control IR codes may not have been configured correctly during the installation of TV signal. To reconfigure your TV signal, on the Windows Media Center start screen, highlight toTasks, clickSettings, click on TV, then clickSet up the TV Signal.

  • Center cannot send a signal to the set-top box to change a channel.

• Just upgraded to Vista Home Premium to XP. Got a Packard Bell with RF for the Media Center remote control, worked fine with XP, but is no longer compatible with Vista.

  after update to XP media center units Vista remote control

  Just upgraded to Vista Home Premium to XP.  Got a Packard Bell with RF for the Media Center remote control, worked fine with XP, but is no longer compatible with Vista.  I checked the usb driver for the usb XF-10 rf remote receiver and it is fine, uninstalled and reinstalled it.  Handset was working fine a few days ago.  I also went in 'Administrator', 'services' and then active HID, but it still does not work.  Media works well, but it would be nice to have the operation of the remote control!  Not particularly computer, simply suggestions please!  Thank you, Nick.

  Hi Nicolas,

  I suggest you to check the battery. Additionally, make sure that you have installed the right drivers for you Consumer IR Port.

• Windows Media Center EPG does not have the correct data

  Windows Media Center EPG on my computer is so ugly!

  Description is separated in two, and it's always the last part that displays first, so you'll have to roll down to the bottom to read the description.

  The series is difficult to use, because the series 1) is not always marked as series (so you can select 'plain' Record), and 2) the title contains often series of numbering (e.g. "the bodyguards (1:6)"), so even if it is marked as a series, it will record ever "Guards body (2:6)" or other titles (the Media Center will just try to record any episode of "Bodyguards (1:6)").

  It is the broadcaster who create * data, and then displays in Media Center via Broadcasting Dataservices Ltd., or who are the last to blame?

  What is MS Media Center that does not have the correct data?

  I am in Denmark, if this has an impact on the response.

  Thank you and best regards!

• Pavilion a1250n: what is the executable media center

  I have a pc media center in Windows XP.  A rogue program wiped out my Start menu, and I can't find the executable file for the HP media center program which I preferred for Windows Media Player.  Anyone know the name and location of the executable?

  America, welcome to the forum.

  Here are some instructions that can help you find the file you need:

  1. go to START.

  2. click on SEARCH.

  3. click on 'files and folders...'.

  

  4. from "what you want to search for?" list on the left, click "all files and folders."

  5 type file names in the search box, and select "local hard drives" (normally, it's the disk C :).

  6. click on "Search".

• Windows Media Center visualizations will not work

  My Windows Media Center visualizations will not work for some reason any. its been like that for a while.
  When I listen to music and want to see my office shows that the program is still underway

• Windows media center ir hardware not detected units

  Hi all

  It's my whole first time attempt to install a tv tuner and set up and I have difficulties. I try configuring a hauppauge hvr 1850 in windows media center on windows 7 64 bit. My TV provider is directv and windows media center detects my decoder when it searches for tv signals. It does not detect my tv tunter as well, but he says no signal and I have to configure manually. After you manually configure my tv tuner, I get another message saying "ir hardware not found." I tried a lot of workarounds and none of them does not seem to work, I have a windows media center certified remote provided with my tv tuner and I can control everything in windows media center, but it stops said ir hardware not detected. I need help serious because I am running out of options. Does anyone use directv on this particular tv tuner?

  Have you downloaded Windows Media Center remote control receiver/blaster configuration utility?

• Windows Media Center IR hardware not detected

  Hi, I'm stuck at the 'IR Hardward not detected"when you try to set up the TV.

  I am in Australia and have a wireless component gets my digital signal in another room.  www.cocoonsystems.com.au I run a Haupaggue (spelling?) TV tuner.  The TV tuner may display the signal from my cocoon via its product called WinTV.  It is consulted on the Composite connection.  (PC is a new computer from Dell with Vista desktop loaded)

  So, when I go to configure Media Center to see the signal as I do the following:
  1. set up TV signals
  2. Australia region
  3. choose antenna
  4. Select digital terrestrial
  5. Select Yes (for the view through a decoder, because the other option does not find my signal)
  6. He found the photo and playback of the sound by means of Composite 1, so I select it
  7 IR hardware not detected.

  Media Center doesn't let me step by-pass 7 if I don't have an infrared connection.  I have no need of my PC to change the channel because I use the remote control digital TV to change the channel through the Cocoon system.

  Is there a way someone knows I can work around that this troublesome matter of IR hardware not detected?  I can only assume if I had my video camera connected through the Composite connection I would have the same problem too, because that was not a remote control.

  What can I do?

  Balibooblue,
  Thank you for visiting the Microsoft Answers community forum.

  The only way I know to bypass the need for a hardware device to IR during the installation of Media Center to watch TV is to use a "virtual" infrared device  There is one called "Vista MCE IR Blaster" is a file that you download from the Internet that simulates an infrared device.  You will need to do a search for it.  Or you can buy the hardware Media Center application relatively cheaply online, on the USD $20.

  Using third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.
