    Sometimes of Media Center... Live TV will work without this message.  Tried a few bugs from Microsoft's web site without success.

    Help..! Thank you...

    Hi herbyderbydo,

    1A what difficulties have you tried Microsoft?

    2. does come with any specific channel?

    This problem occurs if the process of updating Windows Media Center (Mcupdate.exe) cannot access the Windows Media Center data store.

    You'll need to rebuild the Windows media center data store and check if it works.

    Run the tool fixit here automatically to rebuild the data store.

    You can also try manually as follows:

    1.

    Exit any running instance of Windows Media Center.

    2.

    Delete the file mediaCenterDataStore.db. By default, this file is located in the following location:

    %SystemDrive%\ProgramData\Microsoft\eHome\mediaCenterDataStore.DB

    To remove the file, follow these steps:

    one.

    Click Startand then click run

    b.

    In the Open box, type run , and then click OK
    If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type the password, or click continue

    c.

    In the Open box, type %systemdrive%\programdata\microsoft\ehome , and then click OK .

    d.

    In the details pane, right-click right mediacenterdatastore.db and then click Remove .

    e.

    Click Yes to confirm that you want to move the Mediacenterdatastore.db file to the trash.

    3.

    Start Windows Media Center.

    If the previous step fails, check the event viewer to determine the cause of the problem and post here

    What are the information in event logs? (Event Viewer)

  • Windows Media Center Vista don't tune in digital channels of PCI digital tuner tv.

    I recently installed a new Hauppauge WinTV HVR-1600 NTSC? ATSC/QAM tuner in my computer. Its a dual core 2.66 mhz 4GB Ram running Windows Vista Home premium with Windows Media Center. The tuner is made to work with Windows Media Center according to its box. He also had his own software cleaner, IE. WinTV, which I also loaded. I have an antenna hanging good input on the tuner card. That same exact antenna wire hooked to a digital TV Gets the following strings... 6.1 and 6.2 - 6.3 - 8.1 - 8.2-8.3-17.1-17.2 - 17.3 - 22.1
    WinTV those gets exactly the same channel list and can display them all. Windows Media Center, after the execution of the installation routine, list the same channels, but do not think that all. Problem channels are 8.2 - 8.3 - 17.1 - 17, 3.  These channels show in the guide as "No Data Available" and when you select them, there is no signal detected. Yet, channel 8.1 and 17.1 gave Guide and discover very well. It is interesting when you go through special antenna Signal: settings: TV: Digital TV the 8.2 problem channels - 8.3 - 17.1 - 17, 3 list all the and are verified with check marks and show full signal strength. I spent time trying to play with the Guides Add announcement & edit channels and add missing channels. Also, I spent time with "Set Up TV signal" several times.
    Any suggestions? Why is the windows media center grateful but not display secondary digital channels, still recognizing and displaying the primary digital channel very well. It can be the signal or the pilots, because MyTV of Hauppage shows them all very well.
    Help?

    Try windows update.  I use this card with media center 7 and had no problem getting all the digital channels.

  • HP Compaq 8000 Elite SFF: Some HP Windows Media Center buttons on the remote control does not

    I have a desktop PC HP Compaq 8000 Elite SFF that I use as a home theater PC.  I'm under Windows Media Center with 2 cards tuner and antennae of the OTA.

    With this configuration, I use a HP Remote WMC.  The model No. inside the cover of the remote control battery is TSGH-IR01.  The issue I'm having with the remote control that is stationary and move forward and "back" button do nothing when you press.  The light at the top of the remote control flashes when you press those buttons, so I don't think that the buttons themselves infrared are failing.  All the other buttons on the remote work fine.

    I wonder if it is a problem of programming/software and if so, what should I do to solve this problem.   It's annoying to not be able to stop a recorded program is playing when you press the stop button, but having to use a mouse to do it instead.   Any help that can be given will be very appreciated!

    For anyone having this problem, I discovered the cause after reading a post on the forums of thegreenbutton.tv.  An application in Chrome or any browser Chrome (in my case, the Slimjet browser) is the culprit.

    For me, it was the Plex app.  He was diverting the judgment and move forward and back buttons on my remote HP WMC.  As soon as I disabled the application of Plex, the buttons started working.   Never would have guessed that this was the problem!  Hope this helps someone else who might have the same problem.  Ah, tech.  Isn't beautiful?

  • Unable to sync music using Windows Media Center and Windows Media Player will not open

    Media Center will not sync music!

    I recently opened Media Center and I had no music in the library. I have constantly played music from the library so I didn't know what is happening. When I try installing the library again once it tells me that a necessary component for Windows Media Center is not available. I have not changed or downloaded something different. I went to check if Windows media Player is the multimedia file sharing. The message I get from that is, basically, that something is missing.  Now my Windows Media Player is not even opened. I wonder if my Zune Player (80 GB) has nothing to do with the problem. I charge my player when this has happened, but I do this all the time so I am at a loss. I went to the page "problem reports and Solution." It is the symbol of the Media Center window and says that the problem is caused by Windows. The solution is to update to windows; which I am fully updated. I tried to restore the system to an earlier date, but that doesn't work anymore. I'm at a loss to know what being of any help would be appreciated.

    As a side note video playback, TV and photos also works very well in Media Center.

  • Windows Media Center almost completely broken and ehRec.exe take 50% CPU

    My windows media center is broken. Part, but probably not all, the problem is ehRec.exe uses up to 50% of the CPU, which means that it is completely connected because I have a computer with dual-core CPU.

    Do not record scheduled recordings. Sometimes, I can't even in media center. It becomes inadmissible. Usually just after a reboot, I can enter (which starts the record if we were waiting) but not if I first have to do other things. It seems that my media center just kaput.

    I got this incomprehensible message in the case where the application log

    The description for the event (0) in Source (Media Center Scheduler) ID is not found. The local computer may not have the information necessary registry or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. You may be able to use the option/auxsource = flag to retrieve this description; For more information, see Help and Support. The following information is part of the event: unable to write the backup file...

    There is not any other journal entries of interest, with the exception of those who say that I started a record while the show was in progress. I get those now, when I start media center just after the restart, because he wasn't already record where it should be.

    EhRec.exe sometimes stop looping. Not this time. It was looping when I started to write this and it's always a loop.

    Is it possible to reinstall completely media library? I tried to run Setup, but it blocks half the time with ehRec.exe pounding to the CPU. I see that other people have the problem of ehRec.exe (beginning around mid-August), but it doesn't seem to be a real solution to this problem.

    Remove any recent update of microsoft .net framework. I had this problem several times. The first time, he ended up reinstalling the entire system. Although I suspect that the recent update of the .net framework is the culprit, I was not skilled enough to remove it first.  This time I look for answers elsewhere and no one really had a clue. Then I removed the .net framework 4 client update and voila, problem solved. I hope it will work for you, if you don't have not messed around first with other parts of the system too. I tried scannow /sfc solution, but really... This only works if you have the most recent operating system on the disk. Many have download updates, service pack, Microsoft and therefore, cannot provide a disk with the appropriate files. Anyway, it is not the solution. Apparently, the way of downloading these updates of .net framework is important. I don't know the solution for a correct installation of updates, but do not know that the 50% CPU problem is solved EVERY time, repealing the last update. Hope this helps someone. I have certainly spent enough time and lost enough when microsoft updates, disable the operation of my computer. Unfortunately, it's the solutions we try that sealed the fate of our readers. I lost 15mos of professional documents in my records of e-mail in September of my attempts stupid to solve this problem, after that a previous update of .net framework caused my duty reinsall windows.
