• Update of Windows Media Center electronic Program Guide only to July 22, 2015.

  Electronic Program Guide (EPG of my Windows 7 Media Center PC) ceased to be updated since July 15, 2015. I manually download updated guide to day and it confirms that the download was successful, but the guide has information up to the part of July 22. No information is passed to 20:00 on 22 July.

  This is a temporary problem or should there be a fix for Windows Update?

  Thank you!

  Same thing I had, but this fixed it for me.  Run the installation of media center and set up the new TV signal.  Takes a little everything and some channels is different, but the guide whole is back.  Not sure if I need to reprogram my recordings again.  I hope this works for everyone!

• Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 Guide Movie Database must be updated?

  OK guys, that here's what I would have answered as: I have Windows XP Media Center 2005 and use the program guide. When I see a lising for a movie and see the details for this movie she usually shows a copy of the DVD box cover or poster of the film with the inscription. Unfortunately, it only will do with cinema 2010 programs. For films released AFTER 2010, it doesn't show anything at all, except the written information about the film. No box cover or poster of the film at all. (I know that some of these DVDs are already out). Is it possible that the AMG can send an updated movie databases (and possibly CD) for use on the Media Center for all editions via Microsoft Update?

• Windows 7 media center tv guide, update no past 18/03/16 @ 9 pm CDT

  I have 3 windows 7 media center computers - all guides have ceased to update more later.  One is OTA antenna Installation Guide and two Cable Company Guide Setups.  The latest Guide entry on all 3 systems is on 18 March at 18:00 CDT.  I tried to manually request updates to guide without result.  The update of the guide indicates success - but no other entries are downloaded.  I tried to restart the computers. I have completely updated Windows 7 for all the updates that are known except KB3035583.  Nothing seems to make a difference. Still no update guide beyond 3/18. / 16.

  Everyone sees the same date limit?

  Help?

  I got the email from my contact at MSFT that this should be corrected
  today ' today/tomorrow.

• Microsoft has stopped support for Windows 7 Media Center's Electronic Programming Guide?

  I've been using the Windows 7 Media Center to watch and record local televisions more of one year.  Now, my guide-schedule is not download new data.  I tried several times to update manually the programming data.  The EPG shows the update succeeded, but no new data is displayed.  Microsoft stopped providing data to guide programming?  If Microsoft still provides programming data, what can I do to fix the problem?  PS: I have similar problems on a second computer.

  After re - run the TV Setup at least 100 times, it * finally * downloaded and updated to the source of Rovi.

  Keep trying, it will work eventually.  Try to run the TV setup during off-peak hours, such as early in the morning.

• Why Windows Vista Media Center Program Guide stopped working

  I've been using Windows Vista Media Center as my main way to watch and record the TV, music, and Photos for a few years (shortly after Windows Vista came out).

  Since January 1, 2013, the program guide showed no data.

  I believe that this is because the Microsoft agreement with the broadcasting of the Data Services to the United Kingdom is exhausted.
