  • Windows Media Center - recorded not from TV Signal, but TV signal is good

    Windows Media Center record regular shows without problem until last week. Now I have to manually press record for each show, because the Scheduler is almost completely useless, the TV signal is absolutely perfect. Once I pressed record manually, it records very well.

    In regular history, the error is not recorded: no TV Signal

    This is simply not true. I noticed that this can happen, in particular, to the HD recordings. But the signal is always good.

    I tried to delete the programmed recording file but no change.

  • Windows Media Center displays/does not play videos in folders of same accurate as they have always been saved

    Videos that previously played by Windows Media Center (which came installed on my laptop) suddenly stopped appearing in Windows Media Center records, although some videos (very few) are always show and play exact same files on my hard drive as videos which stopped working.

    I don't know that I did something to cause this, although maybe I did, inadvertently, or certain updates or new facilities caused program.

    Please help, I use Windows Media Center as my main videos media player. Windows Media Center is not connected to a TV, just use it as a media player on my laptop.

    He also noted - I recently moved several files from my hard drive to an external drive, if it will be of any significance.

    Thank you.

    you go into media center tasks and add new locations to
    storage/libraries? some external drives can be a problem, too.
     
    best bet is a system restore. You can CANCEL a system restore if it does not work.

  • Windows Media Center visualizations will not work

    My Windows Media Center visualizations will not work for some reason any. its been like that for a while.
    When I listen to music and want to see my office shows that the program is still underway
    I thought it has something to do with the visualizations I instaled on Windows Media player
    (like ribbons and Upcube)
    I tried to remove them, they either come back or he will constantly ask me to go to it

    my system is portable

    • Windows Vista Edition home premium

      • Intel core 2 DUO

      32-bit operating system

    I missed a CD command before the directory (since corrected) so orders would be as follows:

    CD C:\program files\windows media player\visualizations\

    DIR

    You'll see the DLLs listed here, they are visualizations that have been installed (if the author decided to use directory default visualizations) NOTE: there may also be cases where the author badly spelled directory visualizations and used something like "visualizations".

  • Windows Media Center EPG does not have the correct data

    Windows Media Center EPG on my computer is so ugly!

    Description is separated in two, and it's always the last part that displays first, so you'll have to roll down to the bottom to read the description.

    The series is difficult to use, because the series 1) is not always marked as series (so you can select 'plain' Record), and 2) the title contains often series of numbering (e.g. "the bodyguards (1:6)"), so even if it is marked as a series, it will record ever "Guards body (2:6)" or other titles (the Media Center will just try to record any episode of "Bodyguards (1:6)").

    It is the broadcaster who create * data, and then displays in Media Center via Broadcasting Dataservices Ltd., or who are the last to blame?

    What is MS Media Center that does not have the correct data?

    I am in Denmark, if this has an impact on the response.

    Thank you and best regards!

  • My Windows Media Center Download the latest TV programming guide

    With the help of Win 7 Home Prem SP1 64-bit.

    Suddenly, Windows Media Center Download the latest TV programming guide.  It worked fine, then all of a sudden it stopped.  WMC wonder if I want to download the latest Guide Listing.  I click on the download option, then he said: 'Guide lists have been downloaded successfully. Yet, when I go into my program Guide for all the different TV channels (everywhere in the air, no cable or satellite) it says "No data available" in other words not it offers for download, guide, said that he never actually makes the fact.

    I don't know how or why this happened. I tried to download the application manually Guide by going to tasks-> settings-> TV etc and it does the same thing. It says "Guide Listings were downloaded successfully" but nothing.

    How to fix?

    PS my TV tuner and everything works fine. My internet connection is perfect. Am really confused.

    Re-run the installation of the TV, try a different zip code and then switch back to your own if this does not work

  • Why Surface does not support WTV (Windows 7 Media Center recorded TV) files?

    I have a Windows 7 Media Center, and if I try to open the WTV Recorded TV files I just get a pop up asking me if I want to find an app in the store to play this file format.  Why the Surface can not read files WTV in Windows 7 Media Center?

    the bottom line is because there is no decoder DVD on the Surface. If you convert to the
    MP4, the file will play.

  • Windows Media Center is no longer regular registration of programmes; Windows 7 64 bit

    I am out of resources here; for several months, I used Windows Media Center to record TV on a digital antenna using a USB stick tuner. I can still watch live TV and I can record TV, but recordings don't work anymore.

    If I start Media Center when a show is planned, it will start recording, but this is the only time where he records.

    It has no errors in the event viewer, and indeed if I activate WMC when a show is expected it will say something like "started recording as planned at 11:15" even if it was actually planned for 11:00 (11:15 when I started WMC).

    The broadcast of programs as provided in WMC before they air, but do not appear in the history (that is, there is no message "could not save") thereafter. It's as if they were never.

    WMC Scheduler service is running. I removed and added WMC. I've cleared my schedule and began again. I changed the drive on which the records are stored. In all cases, the programs do not register unless I start it manually, or start WMC after the show was supposed to start.

    Any ideas on what I can try other than a reinstall full Windows?

    Posted this on the forum of tecnet so will set post here.

    OK, I finally solved the problem.

    The error was caused by invalid or corrupted registry in the following text entries:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Schedule\TaskCache\Tree\Microsoft\Windows\Media Center

    When I removed the WMC she removed only some entries not all the following have been left in the registry:

    mcupdate_scheduled

    StartRecording

    PvrScheduleTask

    So I deleted C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\ehome & removed WMC, I then made a backup and deleted the key to Media Center. I then reinstalled WMC and make run the TV setup, checked the registry and found that the Media Center button had been replaced by new entries.

    Finally tested LiveTV etc., regular programs of record, and finally SUCCESS, all planned recordings recorded without problem.

    Remember to always back up the registry or create a restore point before you attempt to change the registry.

  • 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

  • Windows Media Center record the wrong channel.

    I have windows 7 with Windows Media Center.  I get my signal through a TV tuner card.  My signal is a local digital cable.  For some time I get recording wrong channel and can't understand why.  I try to save channel 12.1 by choosing the show on the guide and introduction to the record.  When I go to view the recording, she carries the name of the program that I tried to register, but rather records channel 5.  I check the stats and it said it was channel 12.1.  I rarely watch channel 5, so it would not have been set to that channel instead.  I also close media center and it works in the background.  I'm puzzled.

    By "How's your live TV feature", I meant "on your Media Center." ;)

    Given what you have said here and in your other thread, I would say new TV Setup running (and you might find yourself wanting to "rerun Media Center Setup."  The latter will force a reset of the entire configuration of MC; Sometimes, to run the installation of TV is not entirely clear the previous TV config.)

    As your local cable company has made an overhaul of their system, you may need to redo the TV Setup to have any chance of your Media Center properly reflecting the changes.

    HTH,

    Chris

  • Media Center Extender is not group registered in series tv episodes

    When several episodes of a TV show are saved, they used to appear in collections under the title of the series.  The number of recorded episodes would be in parentheses, and the list could be either be expanded to show all or could be reduced.  It still works that way on the Media Center.

    But now, on the extension, the individual episodes are only appear in a long list.  This makes the long and cluttered list, and it is more difficult to understand who is the oldest episode.

    I use Windows 7 with a XBox360 as the Extender.  I have not changed, hardware, or operating systems, but the behavior of the list has changed.  I had to reload the Media Center software and redo my channels when there was a change in television service.

    I solved the problem myself.  It was an obscure pilot error.  But I saw that other people have had this problem, so let me explain.

    In the recorded TV section where you see your list of records, it is in fact a bit of text mode upward at the top of the screen.  One, which is quite familiar, is the ability to add a new record.  But there's something up there, at the top of the screen that I never noticed before.  There is a place to choose if you want to display by or by.<p class="reply"> <div> </div> <div>Turn, when I reloaded the software Media Center, he must have missed in <date>which caused each single record to appear separately on the list of programs.  When I changed to<title>lists seems to sink into the shorter summary that I wanted, showing a series by name and the number of episodes carefully in parentheses.
I apologize if someone has spent time trying to find a solution.  Thanks for your help.  This case is now closed.
  • How can I copy my Karaoke from CD + G on Windows Media Center records and have my collection on my laptop?

    I have a nice collection of karaoke disc CD + G I want to be able to copy on my media center windows and being able to have my accessible karaoke music on my laptop.  I need to connect my laptop to my home entertainment center and have our usual karaoke fun nights with friends and family.  It told me that windows media center would be perfect for this because it can categorize my music and make it easy to locate our favorite songs and so on please help me to find the solution to my situation.  We do not want to download karaoke from the internet, we simply want to use what we have.

    Given that technical issues are inappropriate in the forum comments responses, I moved your post to the windows ' Music and Sound: forum.»  Always include your version of Windows when you post.

    Karaoke CD is not normal music CD, I think that you will need a program.  I don't think that Windows Media Center can read data from subtrack.  See this: http://experts.windows.com/frms/windows_entertainment_and_connected_home/f/25/t/11036.aspx

    A codec for karaoke claiming to allow Windows Media Player to manage the CD + G discs can be found here: http://sourceforge.net/projects/karaoke-dx/files/
