My Media Center doesn't recognize most any video file.

I know that I uninstalled a demo of video converter program because I bought another. The demo was Prism-video converter and had some other demos video app delivered too. I can always convert the video files in my new program. I can read files in Media Player and other video applications. I uninstalled and reinstalled Media Player and Media Center. I deleted the locations of media and add them. Moved files in other places and tried to add these new folders too. Running Windows 7 64 bit. I also tried to reinstall several codecs too. My Xbox can't see files and can not either my local Media Center. He can't even pick up my .wmv files. Been a week now, extremely frustrating. Can someone help me please? I've read several similar messages, but the things they have tried have not worked for me.

could help you.

  • Media Center will not recognize the internal TV tuner from Sony

    Original svl24 title: sony + tv tuner + multimedia
    Win7 Media center won't recognize the internal tv tuner Sony (Bravia). The installation program rises "tv tuner" not found. What is interesting, is that Sony SVL24 can detect and be able to use the TV without Media center option.  Anyone have a solution?

    you have a link to your model of machine somewhere on the Sony site? the info I have
    found the third sites indicates that there is no accessible software
    TV for Media Center tuner. This information shows that you can watch TV without the
    computer is turned on.
     
    To me, this indicates that the TV tuner is the type that you would have in normal
    only TV (which is not capable of Media Center) support.
     
    You can probably add a USB tuner to this all-in-one and watch/record TV via
    Media Center, but it doesn't look like the 'tuner' in your computer is a
    "computer" tuner

  • Windows recognizes most any USB device into a port any.

    Hi, my problem started as my Logitech Wireless Mouse M187 has not been recognized by Windows7. A box came to say A key USB has malfunctioned and windows does not recognize... Initially, the problem disappeared when I turned off for a while, then restarted. Now 3 days later he's back. Windows doesn't recognize any device in any port. I tried my printer and modem mobile broadband with the same answer. I uninstalled all USB host controllers and restarted them but there is nothing. Any advice would be appreciated.
    brencoz

    It looks like a hardware problem. Start by unplugging everything what is not necessary, leaving nothing but your keyboard, mouse and monitor. See if one of the ports work now.

    It is quite possible that you encounter a heat problem. If this is a desktop computer, remove the side of the housing to blow any dust, animal hair, etc. that may be on the blades of the fan and the heat sink. Don't forget that there is enough space around it for good circulation.
    If it's a laptop, use a can of compressed air to blow the dust of aeration.

    Leave the PC turned off, for a good, sit while to make sure that it is at room temperature. Turn it on and immediately check the USB port. The device works as it should? Leave the PC on during some time and look at a port. If this does not work after warming up well, then you have certainly a hardware problem, probably the side power on the motherboard. You may have watched it professionally :-(

  • Windows Media Center will not recognize TV tuner Digital stations live

    I am trying to display and record all my content from TV on my laptop using my hybrid analog/digital TV tuner card. So far, the WMC recognizes the analog content. But my cable provider provides many channels of ClearQAM I can see on my TV without a decoder, just using the QAM tuner in the TV. My tuner card is supposed to recognize the QAM signals, so I should be able to view all unencrypted content (users) that comes through the coaxial feeder on my portable tuner. But no luck so far. When I set up the TV signal in WMC, the menu only listed setup analog cable my cable box, even though I know that my cable company provides digital content.
    I had actually upgraded my Windows Media Center to include the TV pack (downloaded from Engadget) but even this last version does not recognize digital channels. If I try to change the Program Guide and add them manually, all I get is static when I select the. I am at a loss to know what to do next. Is this a problem that should fix a new TV tuner? I heard good things about the AverMedia card, maybe I should just go that route? Can anyone recommend a new tuner card?

  • 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.

    Hello Pinkled,

    Just got out how we can get video of .vob files play correctly:

    It's pretty simple, just add the folder to the library of MOVIES instead of VIDEOS. It is true that videos, just listen to the audio, but no video appears during playback.
    Once you add to the movie library, W7 Media Center it will read "like a DVD" then you will also be able to navigate through menus.

    Hope that works for you also.
