    2. in the search box, type Task Scheduler.
    3. under programs, click Task Scheduler.

    b. remove the mcepg2 - 0.db file. By default, this file is located in the following location:
    %SystemDrive%\ProgramData\Microsoft\eHome\mcepg2-0.DB
    To remove the file, follow these steps:

  • Media Center crashes when configuring the TV signal

    I bought a new computer there with Windows 8 (64-bit) a month and set at level to Pro pack for the Media Center. I use a TV HDHomerun tuner that is connected to the network that worked fine on my old machine of Windows 7 and Windows 8 new machine until this week.  I noticed that a show than I had expected did not record.  I found that Media Center did not find a signal.  When I started the process of signal TV Media Center froze.  After several trials, Media Center not continue and set up a TV signal.  I get a popup that says that Media Center has stopped working and closes.  I also received an error in Media Center indicating that Media Center has encountered a serious problem.

    I searched for this resolution and have not found one. I tried a clean boot and received the same error and crash.  I uninstalled Media Center, then reinstalled, which did not work. I also deleted files of database to let Media Center rebuild, which also did not work.  SFC \scannow comes out with no error.
    Can someone help me please?  I feel I lost the $100 for the Media Center of the Pro Pack.  All of this worked smoothly in Windows 7.  That's happened?

    If I can add my two cents to this, even if the thread is a year old, I have two tuners TV, one by HP and DIAMOND.  The DIAMOND is new and has not been tested with Win7, but the HP tuner worked fine with Windows 7, and it worked with Windows 8.1... once.  Now, whenever I try to use Windows Media Center to put in place my TV signal or watching television, the receiver service crashes, restarts and continues to hang until I have leave any action calls this service.

    The Compatibility Center said that the DIAMOND tuner is compatible with Win8.1, but not the HP tuner.  However, the computer is a HP.

    EDIT: Look in the event viewer and all ehRecvr.exe accidents are related to C:/Windows/SYSTEM32/vorbis.acm.  This file is associated with FL Studio.  I renamed the file vorbis.acm.bak and tried again, and made me the error.

  • 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.

    I clicked on "check online for a solution", but nothing came.

    I tried to install an earlier version, but was not allowed to do.

    How can I solve this problem.

    Hi Nick91606,

    KERNELBASE.dll is a file system of the operating system.

    Method 1

    I suggest that you save the file on your computer and check if Windows media player works.

    (a) click the Start button.

    (b) in the search box, type command prompt.

    (c) in the list of results, right-click guest, and then click run as administrator. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.

    (d) in the type command regsvr32 kernelbase.dll line press ENTER.

    (e) close the command prompt

    Method 2

    If the previous step fails then I suggest that scan you SFC on the computer that would be a system file corrupt on the computer search and replace.

    The analysis may take some time, so be patient. Windows allows to fix corrupt or missing files it finds. If the information of the installation CD is required to fix the problem, you may be asked to insert your Windows Vista installation CD.

  • 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.

    Hi farrelldoc,

    1. What is the error message you receive library breaks down?

    2. did you of recent changes on the computer?

    3. what Microsoft fixit did you run on the computer?

    There is a known issue on some computers that have a chain very long user agent in Windows Internet Explorer. This problem occurs when the user-agent string exceeds 260 characters. There is currently no work around supported for that matter.

    For more information, see the Microsoft article and try the steps mentioned below.

    Known issues and limitations of Netflix on Windows Media Center for Windows Vista

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/972496

     

    For the Windows media center crashes when viewing other media issue try the following procedure.

    It is possible that some third-party programs installed on the computer is causing the problem.

    I suggest that you perform a clean boot and check.

    To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows Vista or Windows 7 by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

    See the link below to learn more about how to clean boot.

    (a) click Start, type msconfig in the search box and press ENTER.

    (b) If you are prompted for an administrator password or for confirmation, type your password or click on continue.

    Thanks for any help on what I would use netflix inside the WMC if possible.

    Hi all

    It is a known problem with Netflix in Windows Media Center. It is caused by the presence of a very long user agent string in Internet Explorer. For more information about the agent user channels, see the following MSDN article. There is currently no supported workaround by modifying manually the user agent string can cause problems of compatibility with some Web sites.

  • Security Suite blocking Windows Media center to connect to the Extender

    I was initially a little happy home network with an xbox 360, a wired router and my pc under Windows 7 ULT(64bit) Norton 360 AV. During my AV license expires, I downloaded the version of my ISP (Norton Security Suite 4) to replace.

    Now I can't Media center to add or discover the Extender. I added to Windows Media Center svchost.exe to the list of permitted programs, but it doesn't have the thing.

    In help on the xbox live forums, suggestions are to work with the Windows Firewall not Norton. The Norton software has a different interface for the administration of the rules and I saw not a place where you can designate which programs can access which ports. And half of the programs listed as Qwave, Remote Desktop etc, I can't even find the interface of Norton.

    If anyone knows or has worked this issue before Norton Security suite please respond when you can. Thank you

    Hello

    You can try the steps below and check if that helps.

    (a) in the main window of Norton Internet Security (Protect computer, privacy), in the network pane, click settings.

    (b) under smart firewall, in line with program control, click Configure.

    (c) in the control of the program window, click Add.

    (d) in her select a program dialog box, locate the executable file for the program that you want to add.

    (e) click Open.

    (f) in the program control window, select the level of access that you want this program to have

    You can also check out the link below and check if that helps to allow access to the Media Center Extender.
