Visa connection Media Center AT and T Uverse Motorola cable Box

I'm trying to get my Uverse box to understand the codes it receives from my new Vista Mediacenter PC (HP Pavilion M9600T). I am able to do Mediacenter during installation to accept/learn the codes of my Uverse remote but unfortunately when I then try to change channels the uverse box interprets false codes missing numbers or using false numbers. Anyone knows how to go beyond this issue?

Hi David,

Thanks for your help. I followed in fact already this sense arrived at a point that WMC learned codes Uverse remote but then again sent incorrect codes to the box. I then went in and actually disabled the Hauppauge Remote Control Board in the HP unit via the control panel and connected an external transmitter via the USB port. It worked. I'm now able to change the channels correctly.

Interesting enough, I had my PC Pavillion replaced because of this problem, as I expect it is a hardware failure, but the new unit has exactly the same problem.

His works now for me, but I wonder if HP knows they have a problem in their high-end line Media Center PC?

  • "Windows Media Center cannot detect the IR control cables, which are necessary to control the set-top box. Fixing parts IR that supports the IR control cables and then try again. IR HARDWARE NOT FOUND ".

    Original title: when setting up Windows Media Center, I get the error message: "IR hardware not detected".

    I have an internal TV Tuner that has been installed by HP, when I bought recently a "computer build-your-own." (According to the control panel Device Manager, my tuner is a Win TV HVR 1290, made by Hauppauge). The computer came with Windows 7. While installing Windows Media Center, after setting up the TV Signal (on channel 3) I am able to see a video thumbnail on my computer screen. I am also able to change the channel using my remote control U-Verse (not the Windows remote control supplied with the computer). So far so good! I then hit next and get the following message: "Windows Media Center cannot detect the IR control cables, which are necessary to control the set-top box. Fixing parts IR that supports the IR control cables and then try again. IR HARDWARE NOT FOUND ".  After you receive this message, the installation procedure is completed. I called HP that support intalled the tuner. They had not the slightest idea what to do. I then called Hauppage customer (manufacturer of TV Tuner). They said that I need to plug one end of the IR Blaster cable that shipped with the computer in a slot in the back of my computer (they told me which slot). They said so to run the IR all the way cable to my cable box and the other end of the cable to my cable box of band. They said it was necessary to be able to use my Microsoft Remote to instruct the box to change channels (cable IR stuck on the box). I told her that I did not use the Microsoft Remote, I could change the channel with my U-verse remote (that I preferred to use anyway). He said that it took the cable on the band decoder in order to remove the error message and the installation of Windows Media Center. I then called U-Verse technical adapter who informed me of their set-top boxes (made by Cisco Systems) do not have the ability to receive signals IR IR Blaster cable (or any othe IR signal source). Microsoft is apparently not understand how U-Verse set-top boxes are designed to work and sells a product incompatible remote control/IR. My question is this: How do I set up Windows Media Center, in order to avoid getting the error message "IR hardware not detected" when you install Windows Media Center and just use the remote control of the U-Verse that I prefer to use in the first place. Once understand you this point, please send the information to HP, At & T U-Verse and others. Thank you.

    Ron, I have something for you!

    and for all the people who have this problem :)

    Hi, I had the time of IR not detected in Windows 7 Ultimate with a TV wonder 650 card and a box of digital adapter from Verizon for my PC... Go on the road to installation and after the Media Center channel search, choose manual configuration. Choose the aerial signal (I aso picked after this analog) l. After he sought more, he finds no channels.  Do not be afraid. Just accept it and go to the main settings page in the Mediacenter. If I remember correctly, then select TV Guide. Choose Add channel. I added the channel 3.

    Since my Verizon box has no IR for the computer, I added the channel 3 for the media Center and I change the channels with my Verizon remote. All my stations in the Verizon box go to Channel 3.

    The story here is so, for some reason any Windows detects that only my box channel signal TV and you must manually configure the media center on the air, then go to settings and add the channel you want in the guide.

    Why the guide TV control which channel you can tune is beyond me, but the scanner locks all channels, it does not detect. they must be added manually in the guide.

    My TV works and looks okay now.

    It actually works!

    the only problem is that it is not in HD

    but there is something

    original title: REINSTALLED XP MEDIA CENTER EDITION, HAD A GLITCH AND USED XP PRO FOR INSTALLATION of REPAIR, NOW I can NOT turn ON WINDOWS

    Upgrade installing XP Pro Media Center of in the Windows environment.  Just start the installation of XP Pro computer and then insert your Media Center CD in the CD-ROM drive and upgrade the installation, provide the Media Center product key when you are prompted.  If this fails, you will need to install from a flat folder, post again if the upgrade fails and we can give you the flat installation instructions.

  • I have Media Center 2002 and upgrade to 2006. How can I do?

    I recently had a new hard drive and now can't use higher than Windows Media Player 9 I can't find plug-ins to play the DVD in there.  I want Media Center 2006 edition to support Windows Media Player 11.  Can I download it somewhere without losing my data?

    MCE 2005 is a separate product of 2002: she uses a different set of product keys.

    You can't improve your system without the right key - and MS stopped selling MCE in 2007, when he released Vista.

    The latest Media Player updates should be available in updates of Windows, in the section updated optional, once you use the custom option for the analysis of updates.

    If it is not there, then the system is unable to use it - and I see that MP11 requires at least MCE2005.

    I think you're out of luck :(

  • Records of Vista Media Center starts and stops at the wrong time

    I use Windows Vista Home Premium, SP1 and that you may have noticed that when I schedule recordings for some a particular channel, Media Center starts 2 minutes beforehand and ends 2 minutes in advance.  This affects only shows record from my local affiliate Fox - all other shows for other strings start and stop at the appropriate time.

    I checked the system clock with the start times of the shows and both are correct.  In fact, I saw one day Media Center started to record for a show that did not begin until 08:00 at 19:58 (according to the system time).  I had my TV on at the same time and was able to verify that the program in question had not yet begun, so the flow of the internet was sychned with the dissemination of local transmission.

    It's very frustrating because I miss the end of some shows and cannot always extend registration ends because I'm ordering another channel, the next hour.

    I have the same problem with the FOX network...

    -1 make sure your clock automaticly sets in the internet and update once by pressing the link (which makes that he can see the time server)...

    There are two ways you can go with this:

    -If your departure time is correct, then just go to the Planner and choose the program (or series) you are trying to install, select the recording settings (or adjustment of series) or advanced setting... There is an option to "stop recording" 1 min, 2 min, 3 min, 5 min, until 2 hours after the recording is finished... I have mine set to 5 minutes after, and she fixed it...

    -If the starting time is disabled (as mine is), to enter ERM and manuver to tasks > settings > TV > recorder > recorder defaults

    This is where you define all the flaws of the recorder, find "Start when possible" and "Stop when possible", 4 min value (max allows MCE)... Save and exit, restart the machine too...

    You should be good to go...

    PS, I just read the last sentence in your post, you must only have a tv tuner card in your machine (I have two, and that's the reason why I bought two), so you can always have a problem when recording two different channels (back to back on the same channel should work okay).

  • Media Center Extender and xbox - version question

    I've been recently using WMC TV recording, but I can't get the message to my TV. I think of buying any old Xbox console to get the Extender. -I really hate on the games-just the Extender. Is there a certain version of the Xbox that I have Extender? Thank you.

    Hi Dean,

    Thanks for posting this question in the Microsoft Community.

    You can go through the article to learn more about setting up a Windows Media Center.

    If you have an Extender that worked with Windows Vista, it should work with Windows 7. For example, the Xbox 360, which includes the built-in Media Center Extender functionality will work with Windows 7.

    Former dilution models that have been developed for use with Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 do not work with Windows 7. I suggest you to be sure to read the fine print on the expansion box before you buy.

    Hope this information was helpful and let us know if you need assistance in the future. We will be happy to help you.

    Don't worry man. Everything is ok! You have a MCE 2005 version

    You have simply checked versions MCE in the wrong way!
    If you want to check the MCE versions open media center, click on "settings", then click "about media center". The version of MCE will appear.

    What you're watching now is the version of XP/OS. The XP is the Foundation for MCE. ;)

  • Microsoft Media Center remote with pace DC50X 1039, Setup box cannot change channel

    Can I use Vista Media Center to record only TV etc...
    Recently I had to use a configuration of Comcast Digital adapter carrier (DC50X) in order to get access to the channels.

    Vista recognize the Remote Setup Box, but it is not able to change the channels of the Remote Microsoft.

    On this page: http://mythtv.org/wiki/MCE_Remote I have the 3rd remote from left to right.

    I contacted PACE (the author of the configuration box) with the following response:
    ". The DC - 50 X uses a new remote protocol called XMP. Check to see if it can emit IR codes using the XMP Protocol.
    "If you use Microsoft remote issue codes using the XMP Protocol, it will not work with the DC 50 x
    "

    Anyone know if Microsoft Remote is able to use the XMP?

    Someone knows how the Media Center as the configuration box to change the channel?
    It looks like, it uses IR (due to the extra step of IR with the configuration box).

    If you have a WMC working with the DC50X, what is your Setup, what version of the distance, whats is your hardware configuration?

    My tuner (Hauppauge WinTV-PVR-500) can see the image, the sound is fine.

    Any help would be much appreciated.

  • Windows Media Center does not recognize an Entone Hydra box/remote control cable

    I'm putting in place the WMC to work with my cable box Entone. It's not satellite, this is the area used by CCC Southslope in Eastern Iowa. There is no section Entone for activation of the box, automatic remote recognition does not take into account. When I try to teach my cable remote codes manually it will "key to continue" but never moves from the teaching of the 1 button for button 2.  I am sure that the IR receiver works and is properly plugged in, and that the batteries in the remote are fresh.

    Make sure the distance between the IR receiver and the remote control is quite close, there are no obstacles between the two and the whole set up is not under the direct fluorescent light.
