Help with DMA2100-CA. Media Center stop itself.
Hello. This problem started 2-3 weeks ago. When I go to the "videos" section in Media Center on my TV, try to select a file to play, a message will appear 'Media Center stops'. Then he goes to the logoff screen and stops. The Media Center to reboot, it goes to the screen to reconnect. Once reconnected, Media Center again, but still the same problem.
Funny is that she will play some files and not others. All files are technically the same Xvid avi. Some files will play with no synchronized sound and some will break Media Center as soon as I select them.
Online TV works fine. Photos and music work very well.
Help, please
Hello
Now that you mentioned that the MediaCenter Application on the PC has a problem too, then this is the source of the problem. If the MediaCenter Application on the PC hangs even without the DMA2100 lit, then something has gone wrong with the application on the PC and that the error is to be cascaded when you use the DMA2100. As mentioned earlier, you might really need to do a system restore to the time where you don't have yet of all the errors on the MediaCenter Application or you can find the exact Windows update that causes the issue related to the MediaCenter Application on the PC and remove/uninstall it.
On the link of the forum below, he mentions that the MediaCenter Application breaks down can also be caused by a CODEC that has been installed or even drivers for the video card.
I hope this helps.

Windows Media CENTER stops during playback TV
Using Vista and HVR-1800 tuner, Windows Media Center stops (with warnings and sometimes rebooting Windows, but shutsdown) TV.
Update your tv tuner card driver. Visit the manufacturer's Web site to download and install the latest version of the driver.
Also look at the event viewer to find any clue, associated with such embarrassing behavior.

Problem with the LG Media Center application
Hello.
Sory my English is not very good.I have the problem with my LG JM53 8 GB MP4 Player software on my Toshiba laptop L10-192. I canoe convert video files with application included on behalf of LG Media Center: convert the Format. This application does not correct it hang and turns off without reason. I try a lot of things like upgrading drivers widdows but nothings helping. I have windows XP Home SP2, and I thought that's the problem with windows and I activate return of restore cd provided with the laptop to have pure system - but this help too aplication hang again :( He sims as aplication or drivers have some conflicts? Can someone help me? or told me for is to turn this problem? The LG service people do answer my questions.
Greetings
Maciej F.Hello Maciej
Problem is that if you use a third party software in case of problems you have to ask the help of the software publisher. I can imagine that LG don t answer and perhaps that they don't deal with simple queries.
If no one can help you here check it please if you can find some support page or the FAQ section if exist. By the way: you'll be very happy if someone uses the same software.

Creation of DVD Windows Media Player, Media Center, stop working
I use Windows Vista and that you cannot use Windows Media Center, Media Player, Media Player Classic or Windows DVD Maker.
When I try and play a video file for example, I immediately have an error message saying that "Windows Media Player has stopped working. A problem caused the blocking of the program works correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available. Same message for attempting to use one of the other programs listed.
I tried to reboot, I checked for updates and Windows Vista Service Pack 2 installed and I used the Microsoft fix it solution to 'Windows Media Player stops responding after you install a third-party product that registers its own version of the Wmp.dll file' (using both the "fix it for me" and "Let me fix it myself" options).
Unfortunately that I do not have a restore to restore point, my only option was to restore to the point before you install Windows Vista Service Pack 2, but my problem before this.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! I think that the problem may have started when I updated a program, I used without any problems in the past ("Format Factory"), because I can't think of anything that may have done so.
Thank you!
Hello
First of all make sure that WMP is really stopped, look in the Manager of tasks - right click on taskbar - task manager.
Start - type this in the search box-> find COMMAND at the top and RIGHT CLICK – RUN AS ADMIN
