• Xbox 360 connects to Windows Media Center (Windows 7-64 bit)

  I can't get my Xbox to connect to Windows Media Center.  When I ran Vista it would work, but now that I am on Windows 7, 64-bit, it just does not connect.  The strange thing is that I'm able to share media from my PC to the Xbox without fail.  In addition, Windows Media Center has detected the Xbox on the network.  But for some reason, the Xbox cannot find the Windows Media Center.  It makes no sense at all.  I even tried disabling the Windows Firewall to see if it would work, but it didn't.  There is no other firewall in my home network.  Help, please.

• Windows Media Center - not the initial download put in place data for guide "unable to connect to the remote server.

  Hello

  Looking for help on this one...

  I have a new install of windows 7 pro running, and I was not able to get the guide to download Windows Media Center.   I am up-to-date with all the updates and SP1 version running.   My video card drivers are also updated.

  I use HDHOMERUN PRIME equipment with cablecard and who receives a TV signal very well and I am able to view it in WMC.    I use Verizon FIOS and my zip code is 07452.    Before this computer, I ran the cablecard even with a ceton infinitv and had no problem Guide at all.

  It's just that I can't download the guide data.  Its just totally blank.   I receive the channels and view them, but there is NO data.      Whenever I run the TV setup the same question comes up.  Cannot download the initial configuration data due to the error of previous download.   As far as I know, there is NO error message when Windows installed... actually... I reinstalled windows completely and this has not solved the problem.    I tried to manually download the guide which did not help.   It... nothing happened when I turned 'on' and 'off' WMC in Control Panel to reinstall.  I even tried explore the ehome folder and remove the file db... but nothing is helping.

  I can't find a file mcupdate.exe light on my system - don't know if this is relevant.   When I looked in the event viewer here are some of the error messages that I see.

  Impossible to extract the EpgLineups (error: unable to connect to the remote server)

  the codec not created by Microsoft), Windows Media Player displays a message that your computer is missing a codec.

  In some cases, the file you want to play uses a codec that is not available or compatible with Windows Media Player. When this happens, you may be unable to use Windows Media Player to play this particular .avi file.

  Hope this helps ;) I know that it is a complicated process and I understand the House will network computers running the Media Center. If you click on the following link, you should be able to determine if you have any problems of compatibility http://support.xbox.com/en-us/pages/xbox-360/troubleshoot/media-center-faq.aspx

  I strongly recommend to contact Xbox customer service because they have a specialized department set up just to manage customers to help with the implementation and use of the Media Center/Media Extender services available.

  However, here is an overview of some of the basics to have this work:

  Some with Media Center PC/Windows versions are:

  • Windows 7 Home Premium or full, professional edition
  • Windows Vista Ultimate or Home Premium
  • Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005

  Once the media center is installed on the pc, you must configure the xbox as a Media Extender and authorizes.

  Finally, you need to add a network share connection between your console and your pc. This process can be a little intimidating, once again, I recommend that you contact customer service with the help of an expert in the Media Center .

  Hello

  Your MP3 player should have 2 settings - MSC that should allow the player to be used as a
  external drive and PSG that is the parameter to use to sync with WMP11. Remove the MP3
  and restart the computer. Change the MP3 in MTP mode - it power off and plug it in.
