No tile Internet TV Media Center

I have a laptop for years and noticed that my Media Center had no Internet option that was supposed to automatically download TV.  Despite the disabling the firewall and tent several times a manual download, not Internet TV.

I thought that maybe I need to do a TV installation, but when I try all it says is that I don't have a tuner and it will not go forward.  I don't see why I would need a tuner to get internet TV, but it would have something to do with it?

Tips on how to get my Media Center up-to-date and functional with Internet TV in the menu would be appreciated.

Hi lisamarie721,

Please use the answers.microsoft.com.

Involving the issue of Media Center and information showing him get & will not start.  Check the event viewer for more information regarding the failure to install or crash.

It is always important to have a good backup on hand, then run the troubleshooting steps.

Try the download updates, and then if they fail, view in Event Viewer.

Here is the process to get into the event viewer - click Start ORB / computer right click / Select manage / select event viewer.  Search for information about the installation failed and record that information in the forum.

If you have a good backup and got the information that we solicit, run SFC/scannow and CheckSUR utility and confirm that they are running with no errors.  If they correct the errors, you can retry the download.

Here's the information to run SFC/scannow diagnostic tests and the CheckSUR

  1. SFC Scannow http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929833
  1. CheckSUR http://support.microsoft.com/kb/957310 examination method 1

Please make us aware of the conclusions from these results, while we continue to work for the determination of the TV Tuner option.

Thank you

  • Is there for all other channels internet / online media center in Vista?

    Hello

    I was wondering if there are all the other channels internet / online that I can get for Vista Media Center?

    I have about 9 at the moment and would be like preferby for free. I do not have satellite or cable tv so want those online, is there any where I can get a sky without a satellite dish as prison breaks soon.

    Enjoy your weekend.

    I don t think you will be able to find a free channel Sky One in the internet.
    But I'm not an expert m and this is only my personal opinion.
    If you don t have a satellite or cable TV, you could buy a DVB - T TV tuner, and maybe then you will be able to receive more channels TV using MCE ;)

  • Internet of Windows media center tv missing tiles.

    Hello:

    Lately I had problems with Windows Media Center (WMC). When you click on internet tv tile, read the message "no content available) and just hung on this screen. Until recently, after clicking on the internet tv of tiles, I had several tiles it contains with many programs available. After some research, I found a thread here on social responses and followed the instructions. I went in the ehome folder and delete all its content and now internet tv tile is missing.

    Any suggestions on how to bring him back?

    I tried uninstall WMC and reinstall, but cannot find a way to uninstall it.

    I don't know if this is related but I'll post anyway; Recently, I noticed that some programs were not registered even after programming of the series to be recorded. Then I noticed that there was no information of programming after a date and a time. After some research, I found that my firewall was blocking mcupdate and ehome mcupdate to access internet. I think he corrected by adjusting the settings in my firewall.

    Installed tuner card / WMC in September of this year and so far, has worked without problem.

    System information:

    Windows 7 Home premium running on HP P6310f

    AMD Athlon II x 4

    64 bit OS

    Thanks in advance

    Hello, Jose

    You are in the United States, the United Kingdom or another region?
    Internet TV is not available outside the US / UK.

    Are you using the built in Windows Firewall or another?
    What security software do you use?

    If you do not use the built in Windows Firewall, make sure that the executable files in c:\windows\ehome\ are allowed through.

    In addition, try reinstalling Internet TV.

    First, go to start, Control Panel, uninstall a program, then check if Internet TV for Windows Media Center is listed. If this is the case, select it and choose uninstall.

    Then go to start, all programs, accessories, click with the right button on command prompt and choose Run as administrator. At the command prompt, run the following command and press ENTER: start/wait %windir%\ehome\mcupdate - uf-nogc

    After it is finished running, open Media Center and check if Internet TV is available or not.

  • Why Windows Media Center does not display tile of Internet TV?

    Does not accept downloads

    Hello, Packard37

    You are in the US, UK or elsewhere?

    Internet TV is available only in the United States and the United Kingdom - assuming that you are located in the United States / UK:

    Check your region settings in Windows. Go to start > Control Panel > clock, language and region > region and language. On the location tab, make sure that the country is selected in the administration tab, make sure that the language is also correct as well, otherwise click the settings change system locale.

    Go to start, all programs, accessories, click with the right button on command prompt and choose Run as administrator. At the command prompt, run the following command and press ENTER: start/wait %windir%\ehome\mcupdate - uf-nogc

    After you run this command, open Media Center and check if it is available, otherwise, you may need to reset the Media Center, note that this operation removes all custom settings and you will need to re-run the installation again:

    Open the command prompt, as described above once again and then type the following command and press ENTER: MediaCenterRecoveryTask - %SystemRoot%\ehome\mcupdate.exe

    One time only complete, open Media Center and run through the configuration. If you do not immediately see the Internet TV, let Media Center open for about 5-10 minutes, then restart and check if it is available or not.

  • Media Center Internet TV - no content is not found?

    Ok.  I have been using Media Center Internet TV for some time.  I normally watch CBS and all the CSI, NCIS sees when they come out. That said, I have some I Center media set up correctly.

    Lately I've been coming up with 'No content' when looking for shows.  For example

    .. I go in the Internet TV section

    .. All the tiles appear, and I scroll down to CBS and select it

    .. All the tiles show appear here

    When I have the CSI games, he says there is "1 full episode, 71 clips.

    NCSI said "2 full episodes, 133 clips" and so on.

    But when I go into them I get the error "no content found.

    No idea what happened?  Its been a few weeks ago.  BTW, Netflix works great.

    Flutterbydreams, it seems that nobody here knows answer (including me). I suggest that repost you this on The Green Button forums , there are some experts WMC. Tim Baets

  • Windows XP Media Center 2005 cannot connect to the Internet

    Dear all,

    I'm having a problem with Windows XP Media Center 2005. The problem is that when I connect the cable from the modem to the laptop, I only send packets without receiving. The IP address I get is also 169.254.207.207, which is not a valid IP address to connect to the internet, and so I guess that something is blocking the laptop to get the IP address. Another thing I noticed is that when I turned off the modem and restart it, I have connectivity maybe 5 seconds and then return to no connectivity.

    You guys can tell me what is the problem, and if I have to download something but in addition to the internet so that I can get my laptop to work. That said, I can connect to wireless with no problems.

    Thanks for your help and your time

    Martyna

    Hello

    Sorry for the question but what modem did you mean?
    A simple analog modem or DSL (broadband) modem that supports support a LAN connection.
    If you mean the second then I would check the TCP/IP settings in the properties of LAN card. The settings should be set to automatic

    You should also check that you firewall settings.

  • Internet wireless for HP Media Center m1264n

    I have a XP m1264n Media Center running. I used a wired Internet connection since I got the computer 8 years ago. Now I have a new computer and want to move the old one away from the router. This computer has the capacity of a wireless internet connection? If this is not the case, is there a kind of card I can get to make it capable of a Wi - Fi connection.

    Thank you

    Joyce

    802.11 is a wireless standard. It has nothing to do with the PC.  All you need is a free USB port.

    If you have XP with service pack 3 installed, any USB wireless adapter which has drivers for windows XP should work just fine.

    I used the maps on many PC XP desktop USB wireless.

    Don't forget that you also need a wireless router or wireless integrated into your cable/dsl modem.

  • Windows Media Center - I'd do lilke SciFi tv shows (programming) downloaded in the "Internet TV & guide" area of Windows Media Center for Windows 7

    How a person is new issues added to the Media Center for Windows 7. I wish that programs of Science Fiction (Scifi) added to the section 'Internet Tv and English' Media Center. Thank you.

    Unfortunately, this is between the owners of content/broadcasters and
    Microsoft. There are changes from time to time about what is available, but we
    as end users, have no say in what is available at any time. You may want to
    at the start of Netflix (there is a free trial version). While doing not part of Media Center.
    You can use a web browser to http://www.syfy.com/rewind/ where some shows are
    available (according to).
