• Cannot use the DVR functions in Windows Media Center because Comcast went to digital maps

  Original title: Media Center help

  In my region, Comcast went to digital maps. My Media Center capabilities (Dvr) no longer works, (does not recognize the Media Center remote). I went through the media center set up to recognize the codes, but it does not work. I want my dvr back. I need to know if there is a fix, patch or work around to get my Media Center remote to work.

• change the order of the images displayed in Windows Media Center

  I'm changing the order that pictures are displayed.  To try to change their order of appearance, I changed the photo taken date of some photos.  When I go through the pictures in Windows Photo Gallery, they appear as I intend.  When I go through the same pictures in Windows Media Center (by date taken) some photo are out.  But they are not the photos that I've changed.

  Once they appear in the correct order, I intend to burn to DVD with background music.

  Thanks for your help.

  Hello donb113,

  ·         Have you tried to update the media library of the Center once you have changed the order in which the photos are sorted?

  You can delete and any location where you have saved your photos (media files). This will refresh your Media Center Library and sort files in the order that you have sorted your computer.

  1. on the start screen, navigate to tasks, and then click settings.

  2. click on the library settings.

  3. click on remove the folder to watch and then click Next.

  4. According to the where your digital media files are stored, click one of the options under which folders you want to add?, and then click Next.

  5 navigate in the folders that you want to add by clicking on the - and + buttons, and select the check box next to each folder. (Files in subfolders will be included with your selection).

  6. When you have selected all the folders that you want Windows Media Center to watch, click Next and then click Finish.

  After you have finished adding files, it may take several minutes for the files in the libraries.

  Follow the same steps and add the folders back.

  This will add the files in the order that you have saved on your computer.

• Change the shortcut to open Windows Media Center

  I am often embarrassed by Windows Media Center that opens unexpectedly when I type a shortcut (Windows key + Alt + Enter, I think). I would like to delete this shortcut or replace it with a different combination of keys I would ever use to prevent the program from opening unexpectedly. How can I do this if possible? Thanks in advance.

• Cannot play movies/recorded shows in Windows Media Center on Windows 7

  Three years ago I bought a Sony laptop with Vista and an external tuner ATI so that with a CableCARD, I could use Windows Media Center to record shows/movies. I recently bought a new PC with Windows 7 and found that the Windows 7 PC cannot read the 500 films/shows that have been saved and the new Windows 7 recorded shows can be played by the Vista laptop. Is any way to convert or run natively these shows that have been saved under the WMC?

  Hi RalphGreenlee,

  Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

  If I understand correctly, you are unable to play back movies recorded in windows media center.

  Looks like the file cannot not supported by Media Center or you need a codec to right.
  What type of video file format?
  Also check the videos if there are other formats to the choice other than the one you have now.

  Method 1:
  Step 1:
  Indicate the file types supported by Windows Media Center:
  Types of files supported by Windows Media Center:
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/file-types-supported-by-Windows-Media-Center
  Step 2:
  Try using a good set of codecs and then try to burn video files.

• How can I use the FM tuner in Windows Media Center?

  Hello world.

  New on the thread.
  Found this site looking for answers to a problem I have. ?:|

  I received my Toshiba Satellite computer as a Christmas gift. I noticed that it is a cool FM tuner.

  I've also been playing with Windows Media Center.
  However, I can't understand how to operate the tuner inside the WMC FM...?

  I added the NXP FM tuner program to the "extras" on WMC, but instead to open the tuner inside the WMC, it just opens the separate program.

  Anyone know how I can use the FM tuner (or another maybe?) inside the WMC?

  Thank you! :)

  Hello

  I have no experience with this because my Satellite doesn't have an FM Tuner but nice talk on it you will find under
  http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?MessageID=138027

  If you find the final solution, it will be nice if you can describe an own experience with it. It may be useful to other people here.

  Bye and good luck!

• Could not find photos in the computer anywhere except Windows Media Center.

  Original title: Windows Media Center hides my videos of me?

  I have windows media center, and I imported my blackberry videos. I can't find the videos anywhere on the computer, but when I go to the images on Windows Media Center. It is not sensible, and I can't download videos anywhere because my computer can not find them. Is there anyway to add to the computer and to get them off Media Center? I never got so bad to do something on a computer. I can't believe that the Media Center doesn't let me see the media outside himself. So, if anyone has the answer please help me.

  Hello

• Add the network location in Windows Media Center for recorded TV

  Locations of tv settings, tv, recorder, more Windows Media Center does not outside of the local computer.  I used Media Center to record some TV shows and I want to spend my laptop on USB large network of an old desk for viewing later.   Because I can't point to this place I'm stuck.
  The files are on USB key and visible in windows media player and video location in Windows Media Center.  In other words, none of the news of the series is visible in Windows Media Center (but is in windows media player), so I can't continue to record series because Windows Media Center is not aware of the episodes already on USB network.

  Hello Johngi2,
  Thank you for your message.  To change the location of your recorded TV shows and always keep the info so that you won't get duplicates please browse to the following location in Media Center.
  Settings > TV > TV recordings > TV storage > storage location
  You just change the location of storage on your USB.  Please let us know if it did or did not help to solve your problem.
  See you soon

• Cannot use the feature set in windows media player for Onkyo TX - NR509 Receiver Media

  I have the Onkyo TX-NR509 and everything works fine except for streaming music from windows media player. (I can sink my iPhone to the receiver box and can even navigate to my music box cylinder head and all the Games very well).

  When I click with the right button on a song and select "play to" and then select the amplifier box "play to" appears and after a while an error message appears "cannot retrieve information about the UPnP Server media."

  My laptop is a HP Pavilion dv7 (Windows7 64-bit)

  I made a few simple troubleshooting;

  1. under Network TX-NR509 shows as a support device and I installed the drivers.

  2. I checked the options of streaming media and my receiver is set to "allowed".

  3. in WMP, I did of course "allow the remote control of my player" and "automatically allow devices to read my media" are both checked

  4 reboot the router & mobile.

  I have no idea what could be the cause and to say it's frustrating is an understatement.

  I'd appreciate any help you could offer.

  M4A http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/316992 is not supported. You can try
  copying a file and rename it to mp3 to see if it works, but probably not.
  you will most likely need convert files to mp3 format.
