Media Center does not support the digital TV Tuners to the Canada, only US places why

Is there a reason why Wondows 7 Premium Home Media Center isn't support / detect my digital TV tuner when the location is set to the Canada? Only the ANALOG tuner is detected. I have ATI TV Wonder HD 750 PCI-E installed

I am living in Calgary, Alberta Canada and the Canada's analog and digital at the end of August Tv is not broadcast anymore.

If I change my position to the United States and enter a ZIP code, as indicated for example, beside the ZIP box, both my analog and digital tuner is detected. manual configuration I would like to be able to view local HD channels, but the TV guide is is in the sewer because I put en location.

I thought earlier that there will be an update when switch us to television digital broadcasting here in the Canada, but is not passed.

Yet once, why the Media Center only detects the analog tuner when I have the location defined in the Canada and my correct Postal Code? I enjoy to get an answer to this, if it is the policy of some sort or a miss from Microsoft.

  • Windows Media Player does not support the codec used to compress the file.

    I can't do some of my videos to play it goes on to say that Windows media player does not support the codec used to compress the file. How can I fix?

    Hello

    What is the file format of the video files you are trying to play in Windows Media Player?

    Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The player might not support the file type or does not support the codec used to compress the file.

     

    You may encounter this error message for the following reasons:

    (a) the file type is supported by the drive, but the file was compressed by using a codec that is not supported by the player.

    (b) the file might have been encoded with a codec that is not supported by Windows Media Player. If this is the case, Windows Media Player cannot play the file.

    Windows media player will play only the files and videos only if it supports this type of file.

    Please see the bottom of the article that gives you information on the types of media files that supports Windows Media Player.

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/316992

    If the files are not supported by Windows media player, then you will need to use a few players from third party that supports this file format.

    WARNING OF THIRD PARTY SOFTWARE

    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.

  • Windows Media Center does not record the calendar.

    Planning to record a program, but sometimes lapsed time up to the point where it does not record. I am running Windows 7 Home. Yes, I checked preferences but which differs only up to 15 minutes max.  I have reinstalled twice already. Why please?

    Hello

    (1) did you make any changes before the show?

    (2) what is the brand and model of the computer?

    Windows Media Center records the first home run HD programs or any which TV tuner installed. However, you may need to follow a few rules.

    -If you turn off your computer, Windows Media Center does not have a regular program. The computer must be turned on or "standby mode" to record a television show. The computer will not automatically in standby mode if Windows Media Center is open.


    -Make sure that you turn off the screen and lower or turn off the sound if you have one at the request of a record in the middle of the night and don't want to be disturbed.

    -Your scheduled recording may not save in the following situation: schedule you a recording in Windows Media Center to start in less than ten minutes, close Windows Media Center and put your computer into standby or hibernation mode immediately. Use or one of the following options to save your record programmed:

    a. do not close Windows Media Center before you put your computer on standby or hibernation.
    b. after having programmed a recording, wait a minute before you put the computer in standby or hibernation.

    I would have you refer to the article below:

  • Vista Media Center does not display the subtitles TV

    I just started to use Media Center to Vista Home Premium and I need help.
    I googled but have not found my solution.

    Fortunately, my HDTV (Samsung) shows the legends on the captioned.
    When I go the same path of VMC, I don't have captions.
    Where is the 'button' to turn on / off?
    It is a function of the tuner (digital tuner Hauppauge HVR-2200)?

    Thanks for your help, but I finally got the legends of work.

    It seems that the solution is in the Windows Media Center TV Pack 2008 (x 86).
    I was provided by my HTPC seller and applied the 2 patches that came with it.
    The old system was WMC version: 6.0.6001.18000 (longhorn_rtm080118-1840).
    After installation, the version is 6.1.1000.18273 (longhorn_mc_dev (wmbla). 080702-2208).

    Now my menus show the items people asked me access but was not when indicated.

    It works with the same material: HTPC HDMI - HDMI-> receiver--> TV

    In fact, the legend of WMC are much more clean and elegant than those of Samsung TV.

    Is there a way of positioning, as their name suggests, under - titles?
    They appear in the middle and slightly below the center of the screen, rather than the bottom of the screen.

    Kind regards

  • Media center does not recognize the unencrypted HD channels

    I'm trying to record live TV of TV that gets its strings by simply using the power (without decoder) coaxial cable. When I set up WMC, choosing the selection of regular (analog) cable packages it offers, I get all my channels except 5 or 6 unencrypted HD channels that offers my firmware. What are the channels that appear on my TV as fractional as channels 116.2, 117.2, etc.. I really want to record these HD channels. Is it possible to add them manually to the WMC?

    Hello MtnGoat,

    Thank you for visiting the Microsoft Answers site.

    You can check that the card TV tuner and model is a compatible TV tuner of QAM.

    In addition, you can check if you are able to view the unencrypted channels when the cable is connected directly to the TV.

    Here is a useful link which includes information on taken TV signals supported by Windows Media Center:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/TV-signals-that-are-supported-by-Windows-Media-Center

    For further assistance, you can also post the question to the following Microsoft Web http://thegreenbutton.com/ Windows Media Center Community site.

    I hope this information is useful.

  • Media Center does not record the whole show

    Says Windows Media Center he recorded with success a program about 66 min record reports, but when I try to watch that it only shows the first 30 seconds or more.  Some programs record very well however.  I am running win 7, 64 bit, intel I5 processor terrabyte 3 HD previously worked well, another computer with the same hardware not having not problem.

    I guess you missed that in my original post I said that the same Watch record fine on another computer using the same material for TV tuners.  They also sometimes record ok on this computer, but at other times are not.  I suspect something is damaged in the media center and will try to uninstall and reinstall when I have the time

    Windows gives you integrated programs to open the image as png files.

    In Vista, use Windows Photo Gallery to open png files.

    In Windows 7, if you use it, you can use Windows Photo Viewer to open png files.

    If you have installed Windows Live Essentials, you can use Windows live Photo Gallery to open png files.

  • Error "Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The player might not support the file type or does not support the codec used to compress the file' when try to play wav or midi files.

    Original title: WMP "can't play wav or midi.

    Using WMP 11 on Windows XP SP3.

    Windows Media Player has somehow forgotten how to play wav or midi files. Doubleclicking either of these file types give an error "Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The player might not support the file type or does not support the codec used to compress the file. " There is a button 'Close' and 'Web Help' which still informs me, "you met the C00D1199 error message... ". ». Following the advice given nothing less than useful.

    I can easily play these files with RealPlayer or VLC so I don't think it's a driver problem, and it wasn't a corruption right after installing the other players. WMP seems to work OK when playing music or AVI. And there is no harm to hear a sound (wav or midi) in Windows for various system events. Have already uninstalled/reinstalled WMP without result.

    Thanks for your reply.

    I have since determeined the problem comes from an updated codec package I installed a few weeks ago. These codecs were from Shark007 which I believe is a Microsoft MVP. Use the codecs from this site for a number of years without any problems so I did not initially suspect it was the source of the problem. I uninstalled the codec pack and installed K-light package and everything seems to be Ok now. Now, I'll be in contact with the members of this forum.
