How to get Windows Media Center to 'Save' a TV channel while I discover another. I have a card double Tuner called 'BGT3595 '. Can anyone help?

In Windows Media Center "Setup" screen, My double Tuner Card is recognized, as "Media Center" displays "Tuner No. 1", "No. 2 Tuner" and setting.  When I record a program and I want to watch another, "Media Center" displays the program that I wish to record.  I can't find in "Media Center" where I can manually click a tuner to record and use the other tuner for viewing.  Can someone please advise?

    Media Center

    While not a central theme of your comments, I have received about 50 emails about Media Center. I would like to reassure customers that Media Center will certainly be part of Windows 8. No doubt about it. Knowing how strong the support of Media Center is between the testers of the preliminary version, we still have to do to ensure quality and compatibility with supplements is what you expect still in pre-release (as for any version of Windows, compatibility is an important effort, and when we work on the underlying video engine (for example, make sure that the features that push these areas receive adequate coverage).

  • How to uninstall windows media center?

    How to uninstall windows media center? It keeps opening up, and I can't open all the files, pls help...

    See - http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/15530/uninstall-disable-or-remove-windows-7-media-center/ - perhaps?

    But if she "continues to open and you cannot open all files" maybe something is seriously wrong somewhere else. If he goes much evil that is, no file opens, then when it started to happen? It has been recently? you got whatever it is installed again just before the problem occurred? If then possibly consider to delete that or try a "restore point" at one point, just before the error started.

  • How to install Windows Media Center & decoder: Please help!

    I have a HP desktop computer. There not yet 2 years old, I have Windows Media Center (WMC) and I could watch TV very good about it until I'm the cable box. I simply plugged the cable into the Tower, no problem. Now that I have the decoder, I'm confused as to what's missing to make it work! It is said that the IR hardware & IR control cables are missing. What does that mean? Also, how far I will use? Do I have to use a universal? Oh, and it shows the channels that are supposed to be here (for example: it comes through that channel 53 is supposed to be MTV, but there is no video or sound).

    Thank you!!!

    -Lisa

    Set your tuner, PC TV channel 3 or 4 according to the cable box output channel.  The decoder is initially connect to the wall and the video output is connected to the PC.  Use the remote control for the set-top box to change channels.  If the PC is to drive the sound then you will also need to connect audio cables (red and white) from the cable box to the audio inputs of the TV tuner card.

  • Where can I get Windows media center xp

    Is there a way I can download Windows Media Center for XP, I can't find it on the Microsoft site.

    Windows Media Center is a feature within Windows and you can not download it separately. If your edition of Windows comes with media center, then you might find it in the menu start otherwise, you must run edition as Windows Media Center, included in this document, which is Windows XP Media Edition.

    However, you might consider getting a Windows 7 that is running Windows Media Center or other third-party tools.

  • I'm trying to connect my xbox live to my files. How to make Windows Media Center?

    I am trying to connect my files from my account to xbox live.  I was trying to figure out how, and he said that I needed Windows Media Center.  It doesn't even look like my Windows XP offers.  I can't find anyway.  Can I add my system?  Is that going to even to allow me to access my files?  Any help would be appreciated.
    LG

    Hope this helps ;) I know that it is a complicated process and I understand the House will network computers running the Media Center. If you click on the following link, you should be able to determine if you have any problems of compatibility http://support.xbox.com/en-us/pages/xbox-360/troubleshoot/media-center-faq.aspx

    I strongly recommend to contact Xbox customer service because they have a specialized department set up just to manage customers to help with the implementation and use of the Media Center/Media Extender services available.

    However, here is an overview of some of the basics to have this work:

    Some with Media Center PC/Windows versions are:

    • Windows 7 Home Premium or full, professional edition
    • Windows Vista Ultimate or Home Premium
    • Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005

    Once the media center is installed on the pc, you must configure the xbox as a Media Extender and authorizes.

    Finally, you need to add a network share connection between your console and your pc. This process can be a little intimidating, once again, I recommend that you contact customer service with the help of an expert in the Media Center .

  • Cannot get Windows Media Center to recognize remote STB

    I have a desktop Gateway computer with an AMD Phenom 8400 Triple Core processor.  He is 1 year old and runs Windows Vista.  The Windows Media Center seems to work perfectly.   Recently, I decided to add the TV option to the computer since the last of my children has left and I got a set-top box (STB) available.  I have Verizon FiOS service and I made connections that were provided in the installation of the gateway documentation.  I know it is getting signal through because when I try the manual set up the process, I get a small square window of 2 inches with channel 3 in it.  I can change this channel with my set-top box remote to all channels that are available from my service.  When I continue on in the whole of the process I get to a point where it asks me to point my remote decoder and press on and press and hold the '0' button so Media Center can learn the codes (and, I presume, activate the remote control centre for use).  It is never past "0".  I have new batteries in the tuner and I tested it on another box, so I know it works.

    I tried put automation in place two option first and that didn't work either--that's why I went to the manual set up.

    As I said above, the Media Center works great with all other options and the MSNBC documentary line CD/DVD playback, etc..  It's just the TV live set up for the Media Center tuner that gives me a royal pain.

    I hope someone can help me to finish the game.  Thank you, John.

    Looks like you are trying to change your set-top box with a remote control channels of Media Center.  To use Media Center with a set-top-box, you would need a remote control Media Center and one cable IR and remote sensor.

    Please see the following diagram: Media Center and your set-top box

    During the implementation of process Media Center application that aim you the decoder at the remote sensor and press the 0 key.  The remote sensor at the moment will record the signal from the remote control so that it can be reproduced for the decoder when the Media Center remote control.

    -Thank you

  • How to remove windows media center in the virus

    When I'm almost about to remove Center windows media, when I click on turn windows features, windows media center automatically pop. also, when I try to open any other program, Windows media center pop again. How can I remove this without it popping up when I click on something.

    Back up important data first, if you can. Then backup the registry. These two precautions.

    Then, if this has occurred there is little time, you can use System Restore to a point just before the association of the WMC has occurred.

    If this is not the case, see http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/19449-default-file-type-associations-restore.html and use file associations that are false. You probably need the patches .exe and .com (depending on what actually open WMC. For example, if all programs open WMC)

    Microsoft does not Media Center Windows 10 to be released
    later this year, so everything you buy with Windows Pro 8.1 with Media Center, or
    Windows 8.1Pro more than one $10.00 go to Media Center or Windows 8.1 for $ 100
    upgrade to Pro + Media Center is a machine, to that you will not be able to upgrade
    Windows 10 If you want that Media Center.
     
    There has not been a team of dev to Media Center for some time. Ms. believes that it is
    dead.
     
    My advice to you is to seek alternatives such as XBMC, etc to replace your
    Media Center needs.

    Microsoft abandoned Internet TV for Windows Media Center in September 2012. So you will need to use IE.
