Windows Media Center crashes under Remote Desktop connection after the installation of KB2592687
When you view another computer (Win7 Pro for Win7 Pro) via the remote desktop connection, this (KB2592687) update causes Windows Media Center not start or leave immediately, in both cases briefly showing a popup that reads:
Windows Media Center has stopped working
Both computers have installed KB259687. WMC works by connecting directly to each machine. If KB259687 is uninstalled on the machine connected remotely via the remote desktop connection, you can run once again, WMC in the distance window. Note the video is not available, but you are able to verify existing records, change the calendar, see the rack TV, etc. (everything as before). Records on demand on the PC are working correctly, I had a crash the system (blue screen) apparently because of this.
Note that there is no problem watching a WMC when using desktop remote connection to a Pro Win8 machine when connected to a machine, Win7 Pro. WMC is installed on the machine Win8 Pro and is adjustable from inside the Desktop Login window on the Win7 Pro machine remotely.
I had the same problem, but uninstalling the update didn't fix it for me. I have studied and found that permissions for key reg key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\WinStations\Rdp-Tcp included not all permissions for the users group, just like the other subkeys. Maybe the update of above RDP modified these permissions? In any case, when I added for this key for users read permissions, shell new WMC would begin in an RDP session. I also found this race the ehshell 'as administrator' would work under RDP, but this was not necessary in the past.

Windows Media Center crashes on Vista when you try to play Netflix
I can connect to Netflix and discover my queue and all the rest. I can view the details of the episodes and so forth, but when I click on 'Play', Windows Media Center crashes and restarts itself - every time.
There are other problems in Windows Media Center. Sometimes it freezes during the display of other media, such as Internet TV. I had my computer more than a year, and this is the first time I tried to use Windows Media Center, so I don't know if it worked before.
I tried to find an update for it, but all that I've tried say that it applies to my system. (I always install the automatic updates). I also ran the Fix It program, which says it completed, but which did not help.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Cannot get Windows Media Center to recognize remote STB
I have a desktop Gateway computer with an AMD Phenom 8400 Triple Core processor. He is 1 year old and runs Windows Vista. The Windows Media Center seems to work perfectly. Recently, I decided to add the TV option to the computer since the last of my children has left and I got a set-top box (STB) available. I have Verizon FiOS service and I made connections that were provided in the installation of the gateway documentation. I know it is getting signal through because when I try the manual set up the process, I get a small square window of 2 inches with channel 3 in it. I can change this channel with my set-top box remote to all channels that are available from my service. When I continue on in the whole of the process I get to a point where it asks me to point my remote decoder and press on and press and hold the '0' button so Media Center can learn the codes (and, I presume, activate the remote control centre for use). It is never past "0". I have new batteries in the tuner and I tested it on another box, so I know it works.
I tried put automation in place two option first and that didn't work either--that's why I went to the manual set up.
As I said above, the Media Center works great with all other options and the MSNBC documentary line CD/DVD playback, etc.. It's just the TV live set up for the Media Center tuner that gives me a royal pain.
I hope someone can help me to finish the game. Thank you, John.
Looks like you are trying to change your set-top box with a remote control channels of Media Center. To use Media Center with a set-top-box, you would need a remote control Media Center and one cable IR and remote sensor.
Please see the following diagram: Media Center and your set-top box
During the implementation of process Media Center application that aim you the decoder at the remote sensor and press the 0 key. The remote sensor at the moment will record the signal from the remote control so that it can be reproduced for the decoder when the Media Center remote control.

Windows Media Center crashes when I try to add extender
About two weeks ago (about 9/30; "I think that was a day after an MSE update), my Xbox 360 suddenly stopped recognizing my Windows Media Center PC. When I would try to set up my Extender, she would get to the first step before you give me an error "cannot set up Extender. I checked to make sure that all services were running, the firewall allowed programs through and so on, but kept getting the same error.
About a week after that, the error "Cannot set up Extender" has been replaced with an error "Windows Media Center has stopped working". It reads: "a problem caused blocking the program works correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available. "He was giving me this error whenever I try to add the extension since last week.I tried disabling my firewall, WCM via the Control Panel, delete the mcepg2 file in the eHome folder, rename the eHome folder, remove mediacenteredatastore.db, tries to connect via another user and all other solutions I found on the forums of uninstalling/reinstalling. I would greatly appreciate it someone could solve this, like many other people, because it seems that there are several issues across the internet on this error. Please let me know if I can provide more information about this error and how to give it. Thank you.Solved: it was a problem with my router, Actiontec (Rev MI424-WR F).
