• Windows Media Center learned remote control cable, cannot recognize the Windows Media Center remote control

  Running Vista Home Premium 64-bit.  I rent a cable box so I can get some programs at the 3-digit level.  When I've set up my Windows Media Center (WMC), WMC learn successfully the cable box remote 1 - channel upward.  My problem is the next step and change the channel using the Windows Media Center remote control or keyboard.  My keyboard or the WMC remote will change the channel.

  I got Windows Media Center to re - learn the cable box remote control twice, which is always successful, but again once, when the time comes to use the Windows Media Center remote control or my keyboard to change the channel, the channel does not change.

  Could someone please help me with this?  Thank you in advance.

  Hey kansascitykid,

  If you receive your TV signal through a set-top box and Media Center is unable to change the channel, or it changes channels incorrectly, check the following:

  ·        The infrared diffuser is connected to your remote control receiver. If the infrared diffuser is not connected, Media Center cannot send a signal to the set-top box to change a channel.

  ·        The infrared diffuser is well positioned at the front of the set - top box. If you are having trouble placing the IR blaster on the set - top box correctly, try to use a flashlight to locate the signal on the set - top box receiver.

  ·        IR control codes are configured correctly. If constantly changing channels, control IR codes may not have been configured correctly during the installation of TV signal. To reconfigure your TV signal, on the Windows Media Center start screen, highlight toTasks, clickSettings, click on TV, then clickSet up the TV Signal.

  • Center cannot send a signal to the set-top box to change a channel.

• Just upgraded to Vista Home Premium to XP. Got a Packard Bell with RF for the Media Center remote control, worked fine with XP, but is no longer compatible with Vista.

  after update to XP media center units Vista remote control

  Just upgraded to Vista Home Premium to XP.  Got a Packard Bell with RF for the Media Center remote control, worked fine with XP, but is no longer compatible with Vista.  I checked the usb driver for the usb XF-10 rf remote receiver and it is fine, uninstalled and reinstalled it.  Handset was working fine a few days ago.  I also went in 'Administrator', 'services' and then active HID, but it still does not work.  Media works well, but it would be nice to have the operation of the remote control!  Not particularly computer, simply suggestions please!  Thank you, Nick.

  Hi Nicolas,

  I suggest you to check the battery. Additionally, make sure that you have installed the right drivers for you Consumer IR Port.

• How to load Microsoft Media Center TV from inside the Touchsmart request

  Hello

  I would like to be able to run Microsoft Windows Media Center of the Touchsmart software, however I don't seem to be able to add the Windows Media Center application to the list of "Targets" Touchsmart, in fact I thought that this would be already listed as target - but is not...

  In the case, I tried to add it manually in my target field but I get an error in pink bounce foolishly saying

  "The target entry is not valid. If please check spelling and re-enter the target. »

  Here's what I did and would expect it to work, but don't - mind if I get this you right from the start-> execute command or in a shortcut, the command works, it loads and runs the TV without going through the Media Center Start menu...

  In Touchsmart app,...

  1. click on customize

  2. click on add a tile...

  3. click on the type of program, and then click Next button

  4. in the type of field target in:

  C:\Windows\EHOME\EHSHELL. EXE /HOMEPAGE:VideoFullscreen.XML /PUSHSTARTPAGE:TRUE

  5. in name, enter "TV".

  6. choose an icon in the icon list

  7. click on OK

  (Here is where I get the mentioned error)

  Thanks in advance...

  In fact, I think I solved the problem!

  I created a link shortcut on my desktop with the command line and then instead to enter the command line for the target to step 4, I entered the link shortcut instead, for example I created the shortcut first and placed it on my desktop with the following command line:

  C:\Windows\EHOME\EHSHELL. EXE /HOMEPAGE:VideoFullscreen.XML /PUSHSTARTPAGE:TRUE

  I named the abbreviation "TV".

  In step 4, I entered the target manually as:

  C:\Users\Jim\Desktop\TV.lnk

  And then the rest of the steps, now I see the tile in Touchsmart and I am able to run the TV in Media Center live!

  But I still don't understand why Microsoft Media Center is not listed in the default target list...

  Cheers... (Yay for me lol)

• "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.

• Button 'Back' on the Windows Media Center remote is not recognized by Windows 7

  I am currently using the Windows 7 RC.  I have been for awhile now.  Recently, while trying to use the Hulu app, I noticed that the 'back button ' on my Windows Media Center Remote no longer worked to switch from the full video on the menu.  I contacted the support of Hulu and they guided me to an online tool that shows the output of a button on the remote control.  All other keys work fine, but the 'Back' button doesn't produce any output.  This means that Windows itself is not recognize the key.

  The button works in Windows Media Center, itself, but it does not work when I am in Windows.  It worked fine for the last few months and I had not used for about a month (and reinstalled the RC) and now it no longer works.

  The receiver displays in the form of "eHome Infrared Receiver" Device Manager and when I try to update the drivers it says I have the latest version.  Something seems to be wrong with either the driver or there is a problem in Windows 7 itself which is the cause of not recognizing this key more.

  Well, I tried using the key on the keyboard and which worked to switch between menus.  I accidentally hit the ESC key on the keyboard, which worked to switch between the menu and the video as well.  Out of curosity, I tried a few other buttons on the remote control then and the 'Clear' button, which is down by the pad on the remote works!

  Thanks a lot for your help mark! :-)

• Problem: Windows media Center Configuration connection to the digital cable box.

  I have HP Pavilion Elite with Windows Home Premium.  How do I get the library to accept the signal from the digital decoder (without additional I.R.).  The signal passes through fine using the S-video input, change channel with the cable, but 'Set up' box control requires I connect "I.R. Blaster (?) covering the cable box sensor which then beats command of other devices (television, etc.) using the cable box.

  You can follow the steps mentioned below to setup windows media Center without using hardware IR (infrared):

  1. open Windows Media Center and go to tasks > settings > TV > Setup TV Signal

  2. click on Yes to the question that appears.

  3. click on the default settings in the wizard until you get to the option where it asks if you want to configure your signal automatically or manually.

  4 choose think I will manually configure my TV Signal

  5. Select antenna; Choose analog only antenna after you go through this return to TV settings and click Finish.

  6. now, you should have your installation center media without the use of IR material. You must use the cable box to change channels

  You can follow the instructions of the manufacturer of your computer to set up your Digital Cable Ready tuner. So that the Digital Cable Ready tuner receive cable content, your computer must be a specially identified Digital Cable Ready computer.

• Visa connection Media Center AT and T Uverse Motorola cable Box

  I'm trying to get my Uverse box to understand the codes it receives from my new Vista Mediacenter PC (HP Pavilion M9600T). I am able to do Mediacenter during installation to accept/learn the codes of my Uverse remote but unfortunately when I then try to change channels the uverse box interprets false codes missing numbers or using false numbers. Anyone knows how to go beyond this issue?

  Hi David,

  Thanks for your help. I followed in fact already this sense arrived at a point that WMC learned codes Uverse remote but then again sent incorrect codes to the box. I then went in and actually disabled the Hauppauge Remote Control Board in the HP unit via the control panel and connected an external transmitter via the USB port. It worked. I'm now able to change the channels correctly.

  Interesting enough, I had my PC Pavillion replaced because of this problem, as I expect it is a hardware failure, but the new unit has exactly the same problem.

  His works now for me, but I wonder if HP knows they have a problem in their high-end line Media Center PC?

• Windows Media Center, says "the disk is full delete content or change the area of sotrage.

  Windows Media Center, says "the disk is full delete content or change the area of sotrage.

  What should I do? I don't think it's completely just a mistake, where us the files and I is not even saving programs!

  WMC stores the file in the Public TV folder saved on your hard drive by default, it is located at C:\Users\Public\Recorded TV.

  Check how much space is there.
