Media Center works with Comcast (PACE) DC50Xu?

I use Windows Media Center on Vista with a tuner Hauppauge 1950, with a kit remote control Windows Media Center with a DC50Xu of Comcast (PACE). While I can see the TV via Media Center, I can't have the Media Center to learn the codes for the Comcast DTA remote. I learned that the Comcast remote uses the XMP Protocol. Does anyone know if the Media Center IR receiver using this Protocol? Someone at - it similar devices and Media Center change the channel on the Comcast DTA?

  • Microsoft Media Center remote with pace DC50X 1039, Setup box cannot change channel

    Can I use Vista Media Center to record only TV etc...
    Recently I had to use a configuration of Comcast Digital adapter carrier (DC50X) in order to get access to the channels.

    Vista recognize the Remote Setup Box, but it is not able to change the channels of the Remote Microsoft.

    On this page: http://mythtv.org/wiki/MCE_Remote I have the 3rd remote from left to right.

    I contacted PACE (the author of the configuration box) with the following response:
    ". The DC - 50 X uses a new remote protocol called XMP. Check to see if it can emit IR codes using the XMP Protocol.
    "If you use Microsoft remote issue codes using the XMP Protocol, it will not work with the DC 50 x
    "

    Anyone know if Microsoft Remote is able to use the XMP?

    Someone knows how the Media Center as the configuration box to change the channel?
    It looks like, it uses IR (due to the extra step of IR with the configuration box).

    If you have a WMC working with the DC50X, what is your Setup, what version of the distance, whats is your hardware configuration?

    My tuner (Hauppauge WinTV-PVR-500) can see the image, the sound is fine.

    Any help would be much appreciated.

  • "IR hardware not detected" error when you try to configure the TV signal in Windows XP Media Center 2005 with Service Pack 3

    I have an HP dv6000t. He came with Yuan EC680 ExpressCard analog TV
    Tuner. When I upgraded to Vista, the IR receiver seemed to be detected,
    but after downgrading to XP MCE 2005. XP MCE 2005 was the ORIGINAL OS
    on the system (bought in November 2006). I've updated the drivers for the TWO
    the tuner card AND who do not HAVE the nVidia GeForce Go 7400 video card
    address this problem. Any suggestion on how to solve this problem would be greatly
    appreciated. What HP had try me, including Sofpaq fixes are not
    address my problem. It does not give the error "IR hardware not detected".
    overnight, it correctly detects the signal from my digital cable box.
    The main problem could partly be the we FINALLY converted to digital television
    signal and I always try to use the analog tuner ExpressCard? Once again
    any help is greatly appreciated.

    I found this fix on another site.  We're supposed to plug the IR cable to the TV box at the back of the first port on the remote sensor Windows Media (the ' antenna' of the Windows Media Center remote control) and then to put the tip of the probe of the IR cable to the cable TV box distance near the sensor on the cable box (it can be seen by a light in the glass) and then complete the configuration of the channels in Windows Media.  The problem is, it does not work unless there is also something connected to Port 2 of the medial distance sensor Windows as well (a head set will do).  With the sensor box IR cable company cable plugged into the first port in the back of the remote Windows Media sensor and headphones plugged into Port 2 of the remote sensor, Windows Media, and the end of the probe of the sensor cable box IR cable near the cable box remote sensor box, Window Media channel setup "found" the cable of the IR sensor and allow me to complete the installation.  I could not bind the Windows Media remote sensor with the remote for the cable box, but said that I managed.  I use the remote cable box to change channels and have box IR cable connected on the decoder cable TV and put the cable box IR receiver cable on top of my desk.

  • Why Media Center interfere with the master of local network discovery?

    At home, I have a mixed network of 5 win7, XP 3, xbox, pills and devices multimedia TV.

    The network relies on a specific working group name (that all windows computers use) not homegroup.

    This works well until my Win7 computer that is configured as a DVR with media center becomes the 'master' for LANs to discover.  Then only the Win7 computers on my local network.  All the XP computers disappear.

    Why is this and how do I solve this problem?

    It feels like the 'master' for local networks is chosen randomly.

    Why Media Center interfere?

    Can I stop this interference or inhibit the computer to be ever "master local network media center?"

    I use a free app called lanscan to give me a list of computers available in each perspective of computers.  When the broken state this app fails to list anything except on the Media Center computer.  Lanscan also shows the computer hosting the network discovery.

    Thanks in advance.

    I have over 30 years of experience with computers but my network is just enough to get me in trouble (and keep changing the rules)

  • Xbox 360 and Windows Media Center interfere with the operation of the Vista computer.

    Since the implementation of an Xbox 360 for the family to use, turning power switch and return to the dashboard caused Windows Media Center on the laptop family to turn on automatically, which, in some cases, interrupts programs and blocks computer. Sometimes the computer will be same turns on automatically when the XBox is turned on.

    I've done everything I can think of to stop the problem, including 'disconnect' XBox WMC in the "Uninstall" the XBox and the XBox settings in the settings of WMC. I do not anticipate using WMC in the near future, I just want to stop this crazy to happen.

    Thanks in advance for any help and please ask if you need more information on my problem.

    Hello ebduhamel,

    1. what type of connection you have between the computer and the Xbox, it's a cable or a wireless connection?

    2. is it to wake up the computer from standby or everything just stops?

    I suggest you try the steps below and check if you have the same problem.

    This could be possible only if media sharing is enabled on your computer.

    I suggest that you turn off media sharing and make sure you always have the same question:

    a. click the arrow below the Library tab, and then click media sharing.

    b. turn off media to find that others share and share my media to check boxes, and then click OK.

    By clicking OK, you confirm that you want to turn off sharing for yourself. You will also be asked if you want to turn off sharing for everyone who uses this computer. Note that if you let one of the selected check boxes, some sharing services may continue to run in the background.

    c. When you are prompted to turn off sharing for everyone who uses the computer, follow these steps:

    To make your changes apply to all users of your computer (including yourself), click Yes.

  • I need to reconfigure my WRT54G2 to work with Comcast Cable Modem - please help!

    She says it's the only place where I can get help, at least I have pay $39,99 help. My router worked fine. Comcast has made updates and now it will not work. If I connect the modem cable to the laptop, the internet works fine.

    It's the router. She said I have to reconfigure. I tried to look on the site by typing in the 192.168.1.1 thing and the "admin" password is not correct.

    My cable modem is Motorola SB5120. My linksys is WRT54G2 V1

    Please tell me how to reconfigure this works! We are working on the House and it is a huge obstacle for us not having wireless internet

    Hello Mominct! I'm glad that the wired connection works already. This means that the router has been able to get an IP from the modem already. Simply configure the settings wireless for the laptop to work.

    Here's what to do:

    1. open http://192.168.2.1 the router page and use admin for the password.

    2. go in the tab set the Configuration Manual wireless wireless. Change the SSID of "linksys" to any name you want, allow the broadcast of the SSID, then click on save settings.

    3. go to the wireless security sub tab, set the Security Mode WPA-Personal, enter a password (it must be at least 8 characters), then click on save settings. It will then be your password wireless. If you want to leave the unsecured network, simply left off wireless security.

    That's all. Hoping for the best!

    Hello everyone

    Also, when I installed SQL 2005 on the same server that run VC, he installed IIS. I know that Apache will

    For the question look at IIS application this post - http://communities.vmware.com/message/1098932;jsessionid=0575DBF4BCDBCEAF1777E067F0ED308B - IIS is installed for SQL 2005 Reporting Services.

    Also note that you can change the port used by Tomcat if IIS uses the default values.

    As for the installation of the server database on the same machine as the VC server, there are pros and cons to do. If they reside on the same server, the network connection between them will be no less a problem, and on the side, as is the VC porbably server you wouldn't create many other databases not VI - therefore you are using a version full SQL license to host a few databases.
