• Manufacturing of Vista Media Center more like Media Center of Windows7

  Hello

  I have myself recently built a HTPC using a card mother MSI Media Live Diva and Windows7 operating system. The package on Windows 7 Media Center in my opinion is excellent. It does everything I need. The only problem I have is not being able to prevent the audio device on the motherboard to get into a State of sleep. There is a loud as it switches on and outside. MSI do not plan to provide the necessary drivers for Windows7, so I bit the bullet and bought thinking that Vista Home Premium media centers would be the same. Vista media center offers userbility limited compared to Windows7. Is there an update that will make the center more like Windows7 vista support?

  Sorry for the hike but I wanted to make it clear what I'm after.

  Kind regards.

  Unfortunately, there is no download available that offers the functionality of the version of Windows7 for use on a Vista machine.  Here are all the available downloads and you can see that this is not one of them: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/download/AllDownloads.aspx?displang=en&qstechnology and http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/en/results.aspx?freetext=Windows+media+center&displaylang=en&stype=s_basic.  Make sure that your version has all the updates, because they can add a bit of the featurs you are looking for.

  Sorry for the bad news, but that's how it is.

  Good luck!

• Suddenly lost all ABC channels in Vista Media Center

  I have been using Vista Home Premium Media Center (v 6.0.6001.18000) with no problems for about six months.  Three days ago my remote control receiver box has stopped working (not), so I did what worked on the only other occasion it has went and passed the USB port to another port, which once solved the problem yet.  Shortly after, I discovered that all the channels (TV and radio) CBA had ceased to work in Media Center.  I tried it worked a few days scanning internet with no luck - please help!  Here's the situation:
  . I confirmed that are still broadcast channels ABC - when I plug my antenna directly into the TV, they're all here
  . my Media Center PC also shows the strings perfectly happy ABC via the software (Lifeview MFP) for the TV (TV Express X 1 MST-T2A2) tuner card
  . I reread several times channels in Media Center, and he correctly finds some 20 stations available in my area (Canberra, Australia), including all those on the strip of ABC (205 625 according to Lifeview)
  . but when I try to go to the ABC TV or radio channels in Media Center, Live TV or even in the preview to Add channels, I get the error 'No TV signal' dreaded
  . I'm back from the control box remote to the original USB port, where he worked with happiness once again, but the ABC channels are still missing.

  Any suggestions gratefully received :)

  (This is the first time I never posted on a forum, so apologies if I've not done it right)

  Found the solution for me on my two machines,

  Had to add the EnableAutoOffset DWORD key in the registry and the value 1

  [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Class\ {4D36E96C-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE10318} \0008\Parameters]
  "EnableAutoOffset" = DWORD: 00000001

  The 0008\Parameters varies depending on your tv card. Is better to follow the excellent instructions in this thread http://www.xpmediacentre.com.au/community/tuners-vista/33832-no-sbs-channels-working-darwin.html

  It worked on my two machines, without having to even rescan channels.
  Thanks to Troy to ABC for his help and none to MS.

  Thanks to tro n [i]
  [QUOTE = ' [i] n tro; 245833'] It is a bit important enough ;)

  I decided to do something for my SBS problem this morning, and jsttry was on the spot with his post... I've documented the process a bit to help make things clearer :)

  First thing you need is a special identification number, the sound for your TV Tuner, and to get it, he must pull up the Device Manager, then go to the properties of the map screen. Go to the Details tab, and then choose class GUID of device in the dropdown... mine was the same thing that jsttry, but just to be sure, I suggest double checking (it takes 2 seconds!)
  [IMG] http://img10.imageshack.us/img10/5229/tvcard1.jpg [line]

  Next step is to edit the registry, of course save it etc before doing anything.
  Navigate to [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\ [SIZE = "1"] [/ size] Control\Class\]
  Select the identification number we have identified earlier in the list and expand that... It should be a bunch of numbers, many of which are extensible - click on those who seek to detail that popup in the main screen, you are looking for your TV card so it should be labeled clearly enough
  [IMG] http://img4.imageshack.us/img4/9439/tvcard2.jpg [line]

  Once you have found that, click settings, click with the right button in the main section of the screen to enter a new DWORD value and call it [I] EnableAutoOffset [/ i] and give it a value of 1

  Restart the machine, and SBS might work if we don't have * anything upwards. It worked for me :) [/ quote]

• Qosmio G50 - cannot install the FM Tuner in Windows Vista Media Center?

  Can someone help me get the most out of Windows Vista media center with my new Qosmio G50.

  There is a tuner inside this laptop and I have the antenna and its plugged in. The drivers all seem to be installed but WMC tells me that I don't have the hardware to run FM stations and I can't make it work. Also, I can't record library but although I can't watch TV no problem at all.

  Someone out there have the answer?

  Hello

  Are you sure that your equipped G50 FM tuner to 100%?

  As I know a few models of G50 has been equipped with a tuner TV with antenna TV port that allows to connect a coaxial cable to this port to watch a TV program and then save.
  But as I said earlier, this feature is not included with all models of G50.

  Sorry, but I didn't find any info regarding the FM tuner.

• Vista Media Center will play is no longer the DVD or TV?

  Windows vista media Center will not play TV, although he did it again and it will not read the DVD more, but there again. The answers would be gratefull.

  OK, forget the TV, I have now it works well.

  But I still can't read the DVD.

  After having put in a disk, it makes a funny sound as if she is looking for the disc backwards & fordwards permanently. After some time when nothing is happening and I'm going to eject the disc, a popup said cannot detect a disk.

  This happens on the plant as well as those burned discs.

  What happens if you try to play outside of the WMC?
  If it is it may be a disk problem.

• Why Windows Vista Media Center Program Guide stopped working

  I've been using Windows Vista Media Center as my main way to watch and record the TV, music, and Photos for a few years (shortly after Windows Vista came out).

  Since January 1, 2013, the program guide showed no data.

  I believe that this is because the Microsoft agreement with the broadcasting of the Data Services to the United Kingdom is exhausted.

  What is Microsoft doing about this?

• Windows Vista Media Center crashes when I change the channel

  Original title: Windows Vista Media Center

  1] updated TV Tuner card driver. Visit the manufacturer's Web site and download and install the latest driver.

  [2] delete the file mediaCenterDataStore.db. By default, this file is located in the following location:

• Vista Media Center and my Xbox 360 extender connection

  Hi I have a problem connecting my xbox 360 and my windows vista media center. Everytime I try I get the message saying that it can't find the range extender and suggests that it is one of the following three things

  (1) the Extender is turned on and connected to the network

  It's on and it appears as an icon of the xbox 360 in my network on the vista machine and can connect to the internet, so I guess the network very well.

  (2) that the code is correct

  It's that I checked it about 30 or twice now.

  (3) UPnP does not work properly

  I guess that's the problem but cannot figure out how to solve. I have a BT Homehub router. I've implemented through active UPnp. I even tried to disable the firewall completely on it and on vista, it made no difference to the port forwarding doesn't seem to be the answer.

  Help please it is one of the main reasons I got an xbox 360 and vista

  Paul.
