Record from DVR thru TV to laptop

My husband and I go on vacation, and we have a few records on our DVR.  If I can connect my laptop to my TV and then listen to the recording, can I use Media Center or Movie Maker to record in the laptop so that we can look at more later?

I found directions somewhere else that told us how to connect the laptop, but it said to use Movie Maker.  In reading through them, I could not know how to do this, but my laptop is not yet connected to the TV.  I think that Movie Maker is simply consider the import of sorts TV input.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

  • Equium L20-197: no not line-in jack - how to record from an external audio source

    Hello

    I am generally very happy with my Equium L20, but I now find some trouble which I assume are from cost reduction. For example, there are no micro shipped, so need to buy one for Voip purposes. And I would like to use this notebook to record from an external audio source, but now to discover that he has no line-in, and it seems that the microphone jack is mono only, even if it was possible to configure the audo map to use this to source line.

    I would be very grateful if anyone has any ideas for a solution workaround, possibly using a USB port.

    TIA

  • Code product key? had reboot my computer and I need a code for Windows Vista from the bottom of my laptop

    Hi, I'm having a problem with my laptop. I bought my laptop online, a year ago, and I got a virus. Then, I had my computer reset and I need a code for Windows Vista from the bottom of my laptop. After looking through records and information, we found that he had no number. He worked initially but then recently he was asked for a product key or something of the sort code. I was using my laptop but I cannot customise my background etc.

    Can you help me?

    Thank you very much

    The code is located on a label and is a 25-digit alpha-numeric (and very hard to read) code separated into 5 groups of 5 numbers separated by dashes.  If you can't find it on the bottom of your laptop, open the battery housing and remove the battery and look there - I know of cases where this is where it was placed.

    If you can't find the product key, your only choice is to contact the manufacturer and see if they can help.  Sometimes the relocations made with recovery disks don't need to be activated (depends on the manufacturer and their recovery process must ask them and confirm before you spend money on the recovery discs).  A valid product key is required for activation if activation is required - there is no way around this problem.  And in case you are considering on it, you can't switch from one product not enabled - you need to do a clean and complete installation (update disc will not work).

    I hope this helps and that the manufacturer can help you.

    Good luck!

  • During the Windows installation, I received the following message: Boot Record from CDROM tree research... OK press a key to boot from CD... Error loading operating system

    To stop this message from appearing, follow these steps:

    (a) remove any CD from the drive before you turn on or restart the computer.

    I receive a "Low disk space" message and to free up space (d) car which seems full of backup files dating from when I got the laptop. Now I also have the message 'the last backup impossible' because I don't have enough space on this drive.  He had originally 110 GB Local disk (d :)) and it fell to 7.44 MB of free space.) Can I remove the back of the 'safeguards' located in the 3 files and start on the 17/04/2008 right up to 2011-01.05 and just keep the last backup or removing the back will cause problems? Can someone help thank you.

    Hi KarenRoss56,

    You can try to remove the old files of backup from 2008 to 2010 and check.

    Note: When you delete these files and later if you perform a restore, you will not be able to get previous data. If you need one of these files, you can transfer the files to an external drive before you delete the system files.

    You can also use Disk Cleanup to reduce the number of unnecessary files on your hard disk to free up disk space and help your computer run more quickly.

  • transfer pictures from the phone to the laptop

    I use a HP Pavilion g6-2240sa Notebook PC and want to transfer pictures from my phone to my laptop. They are too big to send by e-mail.  I was told to try to use a card SDHC UHS-1 with adapter. This allows me to put my phone memory card inside the card that can be inserted into the slot on the side.  I want to know if the laptop a) will recognize the card and b) be able to read the card inserted in the adapter vioa and transfer images.  Does anyone know please answer this question?

    I just connect my phone using a cable usb towards micro-usb for my phone and the phone appears as a hard drive symbolized... Navigate to the DCIM folder and photos are here. They can be cut and pasted or copied and pasted on the hard drive of the laptop. What kind of phone do you have? Mine is a Smartphone Android HTC One. This avoids constantly pulling the storage card from the phone that may not have all the pictures on it. Some may be internal phone storage.

  • try to print from my Win7 x 64 laptop over the network (homegroup or workgroup) to an enslaved Dell Photo AIO Printer 926

    I'm trying to print from my Win7 x 64 laptop over the network (homegroup or workgroup) to an enslaved Dell Photo AIO Printer 926.  When I look for the computer on the laptop, I find, it seems to be fine, but when I print a job, the print job is in the queue on the laptop and does not send the job to the desktop printer.  I had it once before but a relocation removed.  I'm not sure why I see the desktop of my laptop printer but cannot get it working again.

    Any advice?  Thank you

    You need the Windows7 x 64 drivers for the printer (and perhaps software and fimware) installed on your laptop to be able to print using the printer on another computer if he uses another operating system...  Maybe when you reinstalled you forgot to install these things.  Try this and see if you can then print.
