• Windows Media Center will not recognize TV tuner Digital stations live

  I am trying to display and record all my content from TV on my laptop using my hybrid analog/digital TV tuner card. So far, the WMC recognizes the analog content. But my cable provider provides many channels of ClearQAM I can see on my TV without a decoder, just using the QAM tuner in the TV. My tuner card is supposed to recognize the QAM signals, so I should be able to view all unencrypted content (users) that comes through the coaxial feeder on my portable tuner. But no luck so far. When I set up the TV signal in WMC, the menu only listed setup analog cable my cable box, even though I know that my cable company provides digital content.
  I had actually upgraded my Windows Media Center to include the TV pack (downloaded from Engadget) but even this last version does not recognize digital channels. If I try to change the Program Guide and add them manually, all I get is static when I select the. I am at a loss to know what to do next. Is this a problem that should fix a new TV tuner? I heard good things about the AverMedia card, maybe I should just go that route? Can anyone recommend a new tuner card?

• Windows Media Center didn't undating not yet.

  A few years ago my Media center was running down, less than a week before the updates are available.  Now he has done it again.  I miss programming next Tuesday - July 22, 2015.  Under the heading "about guide data" he told zap2it expires then.  Microsoft is committed to providing these data, as long as they make computers with Media Center on them, whether they are.  But when you ask for help, they have no idea what mean you.  What is going on?  Before he is always updated before it expires, but never had this close before.

• 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.

  I'm going to suggest you go through the following article: -.

  How to use the functionality of Microsoft MCE Remote control learning

• Windows Media Center learned remote control cable, cannot recognize the Windows Media Center remote control

  Running Vista Home Premium 64-bit.  I rent a cable box so I can get some programs at the 3-digit level.  When I've set up my Windows Media Center (WMC), WMC learn successfully the cable box remote 1 - channel upward.  My problem is the next step and change the channel using the Windows Media Center remote control or keyboard.  My keyboard or the WMC remote will change the channel.

  I got Windows Media Center to re - learn the cable box remote control twice, which is always successful, but again once, when the time comes to use the Windows Media Center remote control or my keyboard to change the channel, the channel does not change.

  Could someone please help me with this?  Thank you in advance.

  Hey kansascitykid,

  If you receive your TV signal through a set-top box and Media Center is unable to change the channel, or it changes channels incorrectly, check the following:

  ·        The infrared diffuser is connected to your remote control receiver. If the infrared diffuser is not connected, Media Center cannot send a signal to the set-top box to change a channel.

  ·        The infrared diffuser is well positioned at the front of the set - top box. If you are having trouble placing the IR blaster on the set - top box correctly, try to use a flashlight to locate the signal on the set - top box receiver.

  ·        IR control codes are configured correctly. If constantly changing channels, control IR codes may not have been configured correctly during the installation of TV signal. To reconfigure your TV signal, on the Windows Media Center start screen, highlight toTasks, clickSettings, click on TV, then clickSet up the TV Signal.

  • Center cannot send a signal to the set-top box to change a channel.

• 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.

• Cannot play movies/recorded shows in Windows Media Center on Windows 7

  Three years ago I bought a Sony laptop with Vista and an external tuner ATI so that with a CableCARD, I could use Windows Media Center to record shows/movies. I recently bought a new PC with Windows 7 and found that the Windows 7 PC cannot read the 500 films/shows that have been saved and the new Windows 7 recorded shows can be played by the Vista laptop. Is any way to convert or run natively these shows that have been saved under the WMC?

• Cannot get remote windows media center to change the channel on Cisco DTA50! Help!

  During the TV signal together towards the top there is no option for "Cisco".  Then I select "Unlisted" and setting up tells me there is nothing that can be done and leave the whole upward. Media Center will learn the remote control IR codes because it does not pick up the DTA remote this process.   I was finally able to get a "tv signal" implemented by choosing comcast, although this isn't my cable tv company, , but still the wmc remote will not change channels on the DTA cisco. The wmc remote works fine and changes channels in the real of windows media center, but because the string must be changed on the real DTA there on some channel I entered on the DTA remote. Since I use record TV WMC, indicates on the guide, it's impossible, unless I can get the DISTANCE WMC, put in place to change the DTA channels!

  I need help!

  I was finally able to set up the remote after tweaking autour with IR receiver. I have even connected infrared diffuser!

• Windows Media Center "to listen or look at a conflict"... does not recognize the TV tuner

  I have completely exhausted the forum Windows Media Center for response to the resolution of this problem. I replaced my unit ATI TV Wonder Digital Cable Ready, as well as my graphics card tuner, and WMC still says 'No TV Tuner Found"and the message" listen or look at a conflict - no tuner available to meet the current demand "when I try to watch live TV. I have also a "no tuner hardware detected... Please ensure equipment is installed correctly...» "if I try to set up the TV Tuner again.

  I don't think that my answer lies in Windows Media Center or hardware from ATI. I'm now trying to figure out if it involves this feature installed at the factory of HP listed on the bottom of my computer: "GENUINE WINDOWS VISTA HOME Premium TUNER DIGITAL". I understand that it is the software and hardware.

  I would be grateful if anyone has answers. If anyone knows what this function is that was installed at the factory, and how I can uninstall and reinstall the software and replace the hardware, I understand that too.

  Thank you

  After unsuccessfully trying everything I could find that had the potential to solve my problem, I finally solved the problem myself.

  It's actually a corrupted Windows file that allows my TV tuner, which caused all my problems. I reinstalled my Vista operating system to its original state, and now the ATI TV tuner works fine. Easier said than done.

• Xbox 360 connects to Windows Media Center (Windows 7-64 bit)

  I can't get my Xbox to connect to Windows Media Center.  When I ran Vista it would work, but now that I am on Windows 7, 64-bit, it just does not connect.  The strange thing is that I'm able to share media from my PC to the Xbox without fail.  In addition, Windows Media Center has detected the Xbox on the network.  But for some reason, the Xbox cannot find the Windows Media Center.  It makes no sense at all.  I even tried disabling the Windows Firewall to see if it would work, but it didn't.  There is no other firewall in my home network.  Help, please.
