Problems with reorded/live TV in Windows Media Center/player
Having recently updated the drivers for my graphics (Nvidea GeForce GTX 460 SE) Windows Media Player/Center refuses to show any video image during an attempt to play live TV or TV recorded previously. I only get audio.
My drivers are up to date and the only thing I can think that I've changed has been updated my graphic drivers. This is television shows that were working before.
I have been using a third-party program to play these in the meantime, but obviously it is not compatible with my remote windows.
Any suggestions?
If it all started after updating the graphics driver, you can easily restore the driver.
Try to card tv tuner driver update. Visit the tv tuner card manufacturer's Web site to download and install the latest version of the driver.
Another thing, you could try resets WMC: -.
Run the Setup again.
Open WMC > tasks > settings > General > installation Windows Media Center > rerun the installation
Does that help?
If the above does not help then try to reset WMC: -.
Open Control Panel > uninstall a program > turn Windows features on or off > scroll multimedia features > uncheck the box against Windows Media Center > follow the instructions on the screen > Reboot > open again to turn Windows features on or off in the control panel > scroll multimedia features > check the box against Windows Media Center.
Now reconfigure WMC again.
I would also suggest you to uninstall any third-party application you are using at the moment.

Blue screen when you perform the search for live TV in Windows Media Center on the new Lenovo A700
I just got my new Lenovo IdeaCenter A700 yesterday and have been busy setting up. The computer is equipped with a built-in TV Tuner and I tried to put in place the TV on it so I could watch TV on my computer. I have RCN for cable and a cable TV that gets first plugged into the decoder and then I plug the cable to the TV - so I just plugged this cable on my computer instead of the TV.
I used the following Web site to set up using Windows Media Center - http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/9166/learning-windows-7-setup-live-tv-in-windows-media-center/. After that I put in my zip code he sought the power of the signal or something and then I got a blue screen. To restart the computer the information below has been MS. error message This happened to me twice.
Anyone know how to fix this? Or otherwise, I just want to use my computer to watch TV on, and if I can do this other method other than Windows Media Center free I am happy to do.
Please let me know if you need more information.

Anyway, now it shows a black screen and no sound for all channels, but that is a different problem... and I'll look in to that.

Is there a file where are stored the data pause & rewind live TV in Windows Media Center?
Is there a file where are stored the data pause & rewind live TV in Windows Media Center? More to the point - how can I save the time shift buffer in WMC?
I would like to know if it is possible to find the data that Windows Media Center is to store during her watch TV Online. I don't speak data WMC stores by itself to allow the use of the function of pause & rewind live TV, how to find files that you have saved yourself by pressing the Red record button.
For example, I often live TV playing on the computer in the background while I do something else. Can I see or hear a brief fact/clip/segment of interest that flashes by and I think, ' I wish I had recorded that. " If I go back to the bit I wanted to capture and hit record, it will not capture the part I want, it will start recording from the point, the program has achieved in real time.
Does anyone know where the actual data of the TV are kept so that I can retrieve these clips that interest me, but were never recorded by me manually? I found the "TempRec" in the folder "Recorded TV" - anyone know how to convert this video (if indeed it is the location where you store temporary data for pause & rewind live TV)?
If not, is it possible to enable a feature in WMC, which automatically starts the recording of TV channels as soon as you go to them? This way I can record everything, then just cut all the scenes of interest using Movie Maker. If not, are there other Win7 compatible programs that will do this?
Thank you.
Apparently, there is a way to achieve the goal.
A nice gentleman from the Germany wrote dll that create a "time-shift buffer recording" add-in for WindowsMedia Center (for Vista and XP only) which can be found at:
http://thegreenbutton.com/forums/p/3...83.aspx#162083
For Windows 7, there would currently be via a 3rd party of program, i.e. PowerCinema 6, which records from any point in the time shift buffer zone - I don't know why Microsoft has not also incorporated this feature into WMC for have other programs third 3rd (including EyeTV for the Mac).
Unfortunately, suggestions from another forum to change file extensions in .tmp .dvr-ms TempSBE and double-click on the file to read the file of time lag in WMC, does not work in Windows 7 x 64 (the message in this forum has been regarding the Vista x 64), however, I have not tried with other versions of Windows - I would like to know if anyone has had some luck using this method.
Even if it had worked, I think I would have always preferred the usability and features of a program that does the job for me, like Power Cinema - damage, it could not have been WMC. What do you think?
Thank you.

Windows Media Center/player will not play my AVCHD videos
I have a Canon Vixia HF R300 that came with a CD-ROM utility transfer, but not with the video ver.2 (Pixela) browser, which is supposed to work with my camera, but does not come with it and I can't find a download for it. I was able to transfer videos on my computer but not able to watch videos, much less edit. My videos have been saved in a folder called TVD_AVCHD, then in separate folders with .cpi and .mts 'pages' and a separate JPEG image. I tried to click on all of these files and used Windows Media Center and Media Player, but it says that no videos not found. Help, please. I know that my videos are okay because I can visualize in my camcorder and my TV.
Thank you!

"Other libraries" adding Windows Media in Windows Media Center player.
So, I am absolutely delighted by the distance streaming media in Windows Media Player. I run a guitar shop, and it was really nice to have all of my music at home, on my desk, can be played in the store. As opposed to everything I hold on my laptop.
But the thing is that I run Windows Media Center on the TV, and all of my media that are on my laptop looks fantastic up there, covers of albums and video library and everything. But the thing is that I can not add the media that I'm streaming from remote media streaming option in Windows Media Center.
I can play media in Windows Media Player, and it will appear in Windows Media Center, but without album art. And I can not play videos in Windows Media Center unless I open them manually with Windows Media Center.
So basically, I ask if it is possible to add media in my "other libraries" using option of streaming WMP remote in the library in Windows Media Center?
Thank you much for the help!

If I understand what you're asking, you want to be able to use Internet in WMPstreaming between two places, but with the Media Center interface?

Hello!
I came across a problem with my dvd on my laptop drive. The program that I use on my laptop is Media player from Windows. And the laptop will recognize the DVD and everything, but when it starts to play, it gives me this message from Windows Media Player: "Windows Media Player cannot play video DVDs. You may need to adjust your Windows display settings. Open display settings in Control Panel, and then try to lower your screen resolution and color quality settings. »Now I always use the old Windows XP for my laptop, but I can't seem to understand how to adjust the color quality and lower my screen resolution. Does anyone have a little step by step process that I could follow to do this?
