• Why has Windows Media Center Program Guide, an expiration date and is it possible to extend the updates of the information on the TV program?

  When I watched the recorded TV programs, I realized that no programs have been registered since May 1, 2012.

  When you open the program guide settings (settings:, TV: ProgramGuide) and watched part of the' Guide' he said start from 01/01/01, end date: 2012-05-01. So that explains why I get no updates.

  But someone how to get the subscription suite program listings or another way to obtain lists of programs TV in Media Center?

• Why the windows media center opens all my programs?

  I was working on my computer when all of a sudden, I was asked what I wanted to use to open a program. I chose 'Windows Media Center', and suddenly most of my desktop icons changed to icons in Media Center. Now, anytime I want to open a program like a web browser or game, it redirects me to Windows Media Center. Is it possible to reset these programs so that it does not happen? I'm not very good with computers, so a method of dumbed-down would really help.

• Sync IPod touch with Windows Media Center

  Hello

  I was wonder if there is a way for the Windows Media Player to sync with my iPod touch and also if possible how do I change the type of extension file synchronization?
  My current problem is that the iPod does not appear on the list of devices. As an employer in a business that uses music to support our workers during the construction outside, we cannot install program unless we get they technicians to tell us if the program is allowed to install. Technicians have said we can not install ITunes but currently has Windows Media Center on it. I hope there is a solution to this problem. I'm looking for a program/preference free but so essential function can pay up to 10 New Zealand dollars.
  In theory no. In practice, Yes.

  Go here: http://www.mgtek.com/dopisp/

  Its an add-on to synchronize i-products with WMP.
  However check your operating system, it won't work with OS 5 or 6.
  There are other products out there, just Google.
  See you soon,.

• All of a sudden no sound in Windows Media Center, video playback. No problem with the same files in media player

  My windows media center vista has all of a sudden start to turn off randomly and restart by itself, about 3 weeks ago.  Now, he has lost his.  When I'm going through orders, no sound.  Video games, no sound.  I can still get sound for mp3, but not video.  I can play the same video in media player without any problem.  Can anyone help?  I have Vista Ultimate, service Pack2.

  Hi Doramon,

  Welcome to the Windows Vista answers Forum!

  What are the file extensions you are trying to play?

  This could happen because some of the types of files supported by Windows Media Player are not supported by Windows Media Center.

  To check the file types supported by Windows Media Center please visit the below given link:

  Types of files supported by Windows Media Center

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/file-types-supported-by-Windows-Media-Center

  You can also try and run the System File Checker tool. This would be in repair of the system files that may be damaged.

  Scan SFC enforcement procedure:

  1. click on the Start button

  2. on the Start Menu, click all programs followed by accessories

  3. in the menu accessories, right-click on command line option

  4. in the drop-down menu that appears, click the "Run as Administrator" option

  5. If you have the User Account Control (UAC) enabled, you will be asked permission before the opening of the command line. You simply press the button continue if you are the administrator or insert password etc.

  6. in the command prompt window, type: sfc/scannow then press enter

  7. a message is displayed to indicate that "the analysis of the system will start.

  8. be patient because the analysis may take some time

  9. If all the files need replace SFC will replace them. You may be asked to insert your Vista DVD for this process to continue

  10. If all goes although you should, after the analysis, see the following message "Windows resource protection not found any breach of integrity.

  11. once the scan is finished, close the command prompt window, restart the computer and check.

  This would take care of the issue that you are facing.

• Windows Media Center has suddenly stopped being able to see tuners. Error "could not find the tuner or all tuners are busy."

  Original title: Windows Media Center has suddenly stopped being able to see tuners.

  I am running Windows Media Center and have a 6 Ceton infinitv tuner connected to my network.  Since a few weeks things have worked very well.  Now suddenly after installing a faster wifi adapter, I get messages such as unable to find tuner or all tuners are busy... who don't feel like I can always go to the tuner by Explorer or chrome, by typing the address of it and it arises but also shows that it is set on the channels that I am no longer watching.  Any ideas on why WMC is suddenly acting when the only thing I did was install an a6200 netgear adapter, nothing has changed.

• Windows Media Center - why it cannot detect TV?

  I used Qosmioplayer and it detects the TV from my Sky Digibox very well signal. However, I would like to record TV with my laptop and when I try to set up the TV using Windows Media Center, it cannot detect anything. I tried every possible permutation and the manual does not give pointers...

  Why the Qosmiplayer works for the entrance to Sky TV, but not the media library?

  Please help it's driving me crazy!

  I assume you are using a lead of areal coaxial standard to connect to your sky box? If so, you need to know which way the sky is coming in the. To do this, use the Qomsio drive to search for channels and when it detects the signal from Sky, it will tell you which way it is passed on. Something like channel 36. OK, now you have this information, start the machine and go into Media Center. You must manually add this channel. As Media center works with the EPG, all channels such as the skyinput must be added.

  So, in the main menu, go to

  Settings > TV > Guide > add missing channels > add channel

  Now enter the channel name you want displayed when viewing. IE SKY.

  Now you enter the channel number 36 IE that you got the Qosmio engine. This will now be held on the next available channel. IE 6/7/8 etc. Everything do you now is go to the channel and it appears at the entrance to heaven.

  Hope this helps
