Media Center-Guide ads

OS-windows vista Home premium
When I created guide announces TV channels are listed alphabitically (arround 200 channels)
And it (the Decree) does not correspond with the channels available. How can I assign these channels in the guide for the channel list or lists. The solution is nice channel. It's almost a mission impossible. Because, suppose that navigate the list to 2nd 5th Channel to match my channel swept, the 2nd channel is moved to the 3rd position, a 3rd at 4rt position and so on. that is, all other strings in the list is arranged.
In the Edit Channel option, the channel number cannot be eddited
Is it possible to change the channel number in the registration guide.

It seems that nobody here knows answer (including me). I suggest that repost you this on The Green Button forums , there are some experts WMC. Tim Baets

  • Windows Media Center Guide does not correct list shows

    I use a Vista Home Premium, the other day I reformatted my computer because I had problems with it. everything went well and media center opens and works very well. However, it used correctly list indicated in the guide, no matter what I do, and it worked properly before the reformat. The channels are listed correctly, if TBS is supposed to be on channel 2, according to the guide, is, therefore, when I go to channel 2 I am indeed on TBS station, BUT even if the show is listed as 'Home' in the guide, which is in read mode is like Sienfeld or some other show. Even when I record programs when it starts recording it will tell me 'Reecording House' and when you go to channel his record some other show is apparently on at that time.

    I tried completely relative to the implementation of the centre, tried to re-do ads guide by using 3 or 4 different postcodes, tried to look in my BIOS to see if my system clock is off, I tried looking for an updated driver but can't find the Media Center or don't know what it's called , and nothing has worked so far.

    What is the problem with my Media Center? Is an off clock that actually play the shows at the wrong time? I've been home 3 days now so please if you know EXACTLY what is wrong just to give me a bunch of things to try, and I'll try them

    Thank you

    Hi eps3742,

    This can happen if the media center guide downloads information guide incorrect.
    I suggest that you try to re installation guide and download the guide for registration again and check if it works.

    To set up the Guide listings

    To find your favorite programs more easily, you can configure your Guide lists to match your local service provider's guide listings.
    1. on the Start screen, navigate to tasks, click settings, click TV, click Guide, and then click Set Up Guide ads.
    2. follow the instructions on the screen to configure the list of Guide for your region.

    If you are prompted to select a TV provider and you do not know which one to select, control a recent draft Bill or statement from your TV service provider to find the appropriate information.

    The providers listed in Windows Media Center vary according to the Postal Code or ZIP. If the supplier subscribe is not listed for the ZIP or the Postal Code entered, try entering local codes find the appropriate Guide listings.

    Check out the link for more information below.
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/set-up-Guide-listings-for-use-in-Windows-Media-Center

    I would also say that you check if the time zone in windows is set correctly.

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/set-the-clock

    If the previous step fails, then try to download the cumulative update of the Center media of the KB article below and check.

  • Windows Media Center Guide not updated lists of TV of Zap2It passed tuesday.21.07.15

    Overview: Windows Media Center (WMC) is provided to ads of TV via the WMC Guide, of Zap2It.  If you go on the website of Zap2It TV listings *, about 2 weeks ago from future TV ads.  When the WMC Guide is set to day, & functions correctly, these same 2 weeks of TV programs are downloaded into WMC.  If we could use the Zap2It site to schedule the recording of television programs, then we would not need the WMC Guide to download.

    It is very early Sunday asof this announcement; the WMC Guide didn't really update for about 9 days... There's only TV ads through Tuesday, in about 3 days.  The update of the WMC Guide seems to work fine, it connects with the site or the source or whatever/where he gets the Guide of... but they say, "The PSE Listing is already up to date", even if, obviously, is NOT "up-to-date".  I'm getting now, 'you only have 3 days of registration!, you must update the Guide!' scare-messages every time I go to the WMC, and I click on update the Guide, but all also when I manually run it, just as when WMC runs automatically update Guide, it isn't actually updated!

    To be clear: I use Win7Pro64bit; -ALL-all the updates, Windows software & if not, are daily checked & constantly kept up to date; There has been no changes to the computer, & it works like a dream; WMC works the same, the update of the WMC Guide works exactly the same, the only exception being that, "that the EPG Listings package is already updated" thing, when he has actually updated the WMC Guide.

    So Please do not post those standard, boilerplate answers for updating Windows & or by disabling caches & or such other hoax explosive...  The problem is almost certainly with the Microsoft, Windows, WMC, Zap2It interface.

    You can go on the site Web of Zap2It * yourself!, go!, see for yourself!, the next 2 weeks of TV programs are here!...

    ... then, why are not those TV ads- already & always present -are actually downloaded to WMC?, why isn't the WMC Guide updated?

    ... Thank you!

  • Stopped Media Center Guide to update

    I have Windows XP Media Center Edition and some time around Christmas, the Media Center Guide stopped updating.  In turn, the recorded tv has stopped working.  It's been over 3 months later and it still does not work!  It all started when my computer updated.  It's updated several times since then and has still not solved the problem.  Help, please!

    Hello Jen_1918,

    I suggest that scan you SFC [SFC system] on the computer that would be a system file corrupt on the computer search and replace.

    a. click Start, click run, type cmd in the Open box and then click OK.

    b. at the command prompt, type sfc/scannow, and then press ENTER.

    Note: Could you prompt to insert the Windows XP CD.

    The sfc/scannow command. analyzes all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions.

  • How can I get the Windows 7 Media Center guide to update the channel list.

    I noticed that lists of TV channels in Windows 7 Media Center guide are incomplete.  Not all available channels are appearing.  They disappeared for some time.  I checked the lists online of zapsit and they contain the missing strings.  The program zap2it descriptions are more precise than what appears in the Media Center guide.
    How can I get the added missing channels?

  • "No data available" Media Center Guide

    4 February 20114 Hi, I'm in London, I have two machines Vista Home Premium and a Windows 7 computer. I use a tuner TV USB Hauppauge on each of them. Everything worked well until the middle of December 2013. After updating the Guide two Vista machines now show "No data available" for some of the channels including BBC1, ITV, channel 5 and many others. I can receive the channels but not see their guide ads. The EPG Hauppauge also works fine on Vista machines. The Windows 7 machine is not affected and displays complete information.

    I see this fault happened in January 2013, and it was a result of Microsoft to not renew their contract with Red Bee. I visited Red Bee (they are close to me) but they don't know about this topic and say that they do not have a contract for the end user of Microsoft verification.

    I have tried everything I can think of including Windows Vista Factory reload, change of postal code, change the transmitter and c and nothing seems to work. I lost days trying to find an answer to this, and he sends me nuts!.

    Please someone knows how to fix this?

    Thank you

  • Media Center Guide download stopped download after years... no error message.

    Windows Vista 32 SP2

    After years of good Guide ads download of my system just stopped downloading updated lists of programs.  Media Center said that it downloads successfully but not so much.  No error message.  I tried to re - configure the Guide in Media Center.  I tried to manually download updated program listings.  I uninstalled updates 11/04/12 NETframe4 have read that they can be problematic.  I restored to the 10/04/12, which is just before the big update 11/04/12.  None of this worked and my recorded shows stop at 5 pm PT 19/04/12.  What is the answer?  Thank you.

    There are several recent reports of problems with the guide data. Some people
    declare that the guide has finally started in. you can try to fill a
    neighbor of zip code and see if you get better results and then switch back to
    your code.

  • How to change for the Media Center guide download time?

    How can I change the Media Center program guide download time?  My computer comes out of hibernation to download data at 12:15 and to sit down again it idling (for several hours) until she was put into hibernation or stop.  There is a utility that will change in time, but time is always changed back to the time of 12: 00.  I guess MC changes the time of return.  Thanks in advance.

  • Media Center Guide 'no data available '.

    I noticed that every now and then I see "No Data available" for some channels in the guide. Its random when it happens and what channels show it. The only way that I can't bring back data is to go in the guide editor and make a small change and keep the guide. After recording, the guide is complete again. After a week or two, the same problem is back. Could be timed with the release of the automatic guide.

    The channales than what is happening on are on my list dishnetwork.

    Thoughts?

  • Windows Media Center Guide - no data

    After doing an update, windows media center TV guide display more data... said 'No data available' went to settings, put in place the guide... guide downloads, but will not display the show there. ????

    What day?

    If this value is the cause might find you it under Add/Remove programs? If, then uninstall it and check again the question.

    You can also "Run Setup Again" [Open WMC > tasks > settings > General > Windows Media Center Setup > run Setup again]

    You can also try the system restore.

    Select any restore point when everything worked well.

  • Impossible to change the Windows Media Center guide to allow the use of ot TV relay stations (translators)

    Live TV with Windows Media Center, where RF channels are different from that of the guide because of the distance TV translators (relay Stations)

    Cannot change the guide to allow the use ot (translators) television relay stations where the RF TV channel is different from the current station. For example, Station POLO6N is 9 RF channel in Eugene, OR, but here on the coast, it is the 35 RF channel. Zip code for our region apparently points to the station itself RF channel and the number of 1092 is shown and dimmed so that it cannot be changed. How the inputs of channel can be modified to adapt to this situation? Here on the coast, we're out of range (mountains, etc.) of the station itself.

    BH

    I have apparently discovered a way to watch and record live TV using Windows Media Center where the geographical area is served by the translators of the TV and the.

    If you configure the TV channels using only NOT the guide and using Add missing channels feature to add and configure the channels you use before you download the guide, you can set the actual RF frequencies of TV translators serving your area. In my case, I had to add the letters TD after the call signs of stations so that when I load the guide, he be to point to the current channel.

    After having added all channels and before loading guide, check the reception using the function designed to help you in the pointing of your antenna. Then load the guide and your channel configuration is retained and stored in a file pref.xml which apparently replaces the channels.xml file created by the loading guide.

    Unfortunately, detailed documentation on the product missing apparently (help files I found only State to follow the guests), or I didn't find it. In all cases, you can use Windows Media Center to watch and record live TV if you live in an area served by the translators/TV relay stations with different channels channels over-the-aor real real TV stations.

    If you find that you need to change a channel, use channel add rather than the function Edit channels, clear the X in the box and start over with this channel.
