• Windows Homer Server Media Center not showing the new files I downloaded

  So I installed WHS2011 and thought that the library would easily work. It seems that the new files I put on the server are not get updated when I try and view them through the Media Center. Also when I serach for libraries on another device, it shows me two homeservers, one who say no files present and the other who has files (but does not update the index!). What is going on? (the file types are the same as the other files that are appearing fine)

  It is a basic installation, the only change I made is to move the directory to a new hard drive and update the WHS settings to point to the serverfolder updated on the new hard drive.

  I checked the settings on the media section of sharing control panel and it's on, I also checked on the dashboard and the media of Stentor is enabled.

  Why are my new files not updated in the index?

  Why two media servers on my other devices?

  Hello

  Your question would be better suited for the TechNet forums.

  I suggest you to ask your question to the forum Server TechNet for better assistance.

• When I opened TB, under 'Accounts', it only shows the option "create a new account. Option: "view settings for this account" does NOT appear.

  When I opened TB, I don't see no information on the TB account that I used for years. Instead, the main menu shows only 'accounts'-'Create a new account - Email, Chat, newsgroup, feed'. Option: "view settings for this account" does NOT appear.

  Also the main menu does NOT appear "Email - messages, write a new Message" or "Advanced functions", etc...

  Real emails regarding the TB account I used for years are still present in the "users-> xxxxyyyy-> AppData-> Roaming-> Thunderbird' folder."

• Windows XP Media Center 2005 cannot connect to the Internet

  Dear all,

  I'm having a problem with Windows XP Media Center 2005. The problem is that when I connect the cable from the modem to the laptop, I only send packets without receiving. The IP address I get is also 169.254.207.207, which is not a valid IP address to connect to the internet, and so I guess that something is blocking the laptop to get the IP address. Another thing I noticed is that when I turned off the modem and restart it, I have connectivity maybe 5 seconds and then return to no connectivity.

  You guys can tell me what is the problem, and if I have to download something but in addition to the internet so that I can get my laptop to work. That said, I can connect to wireless with no problems.

  Thanks for your help and your time

  Martyna

  Hello

  Sorry for the question but what modem did you mean?
  A simple analog modem or DSL (broadband) modem that supports support a LAN connection.
  If you mean the second then I would check the TCP/IP settings in the properties of LAN card. The settings should be set to automatic

  You should also check that you firewall settings.

• Xbox 360 Media Center Extender loses the connection to the media center to Windows 7 after change of router

  I have a Windows 7 Media Center box, and an Xbox 360 that I use as an Extender.  The two connections to the same wired router.  Everything worked fine until I went on my old router (failed) and put in a WNDR4300.   After the new router has been installed, I didn't have the Extender work then, deleted from the media Center and re - he added.  It worked but after I shut off/started the xbox, no link.  It is repetitive: I can make a new connection, but then it didn't reconnect after reboot of the xbox.

  Check/change:

  -J' changed to a static IP xbox

  -There is no part 3 a / v or a firewall on the support center

  -L' on the media center network adapter is 'home '.

  -The network card on the media center * fact * show the xbox 360

  -The event log after the xbox is restarted shows:

  event ID 538: installation of media center extender does not like the Extender has been detected on the network, but for the Extender upnp search failed (timed out after 20000ms)

  -How long before it, I have found that the service IS running upnp device host (and set to auto)

  -J' checked 4300 router wndr and UPnP is enabled (advertising set to 30 minutes)

  question, any ideas what configuration will solve this problem?

  [2] delete the file mediaCenterDataStore.db. By default, this file is located in the following location:
  %SystemDrive%\ProgramData\Microsoft\eHome\mediaCenterDataStore.DB
  
  Delete: -.

  Start > run > type in %SYSTEMDRIVE%\ProgramData\Microsoft\eHome\mediaCenterDataStore.db > OK.

  Locate mediaCenterDataStore.db and right-click on it, select Delete.

  Restart the Media Center.

• Windows 7 Media Center has a bad moment in Tv Guide

  Tv Guide in my Windows 7 Media Center is showing PST registration dates of the postcodes of Alabama. It shows my time as being correct. But times are two hours late. I have reset media center two or three times and schedules are still out of my two hours.

  What can I do to fix this?

  Thank you, cdj1942

  Try turning the Media Center and Media Player and turn it back on and through
  Media Center installation again after that. Control Panel, programs and features, tour
  on and outside. Restart in the meantime and after turn on. Run it the installation again.
   
  I was assuming that you have double checked your time zone in Windows...

• Why Surface does not support WTV (Windows 7 Media Center recorded TV) files?

  I have a Windows 7 Media Center, and if I try to open the WTV Recorded TV files I just get a pop up asking me if I want to find an app in the store to play this file format.  Why the Surface can not read files WTV in Windows 7 Media Center?

  the bottom line is because there is no decoder DVD on the Surface. If you convert to the
  MP4, the file will play.

  Hi all
  I have Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit and a USB Pinnacle USB TV adapter (80th).  Which works fine with the software provided by Pinnacle, (TV Center Pro) using Clear QAM. However, I want to use the adapter USB TV with Windows 7 Media Center.  When I go in the options of signal TV of WMC, it shows Clear QAM as an option.  Can someone tell me please how to display the QAM option?  And why is it hidden initially?

  Bad bad Microsoft!  Shame on you for something!

  Hi all
  I finally got that it works, and that a single push.

  First of all, I uninstalled all drivers for my TV card in Device Manager. I had to do this several times, as he kept drivers already installed conclusion, but finally there lack of pilots.

  -Reboot
  -J' pressed F8 during boot and selected "disable driver signing" at startup.
  -Once Windows 7 has been started, I installed the drivers Beta 64-bit listed above.
  (I didn't understand how automatic default to F8 and 'Disable driver signing', always looking at this information, my plan is not to restart very often at the moment.)
  -Then, I scanned for TV stations, technnicaly my adapter showed as two adapters, said the Media Center window to search for the two adapters and found all my ClearQAM channels.

  I have installation check, I'll see how it works, but so far, Windows Media Center looks really sweet.

  I hope this helps others, I know that I spent many hours to find it.
