'windows media center' on Vista32 and Vista64 can't see movies on 'disc of Windows 7 "
I have 2 Windows 7 machines. We have a lot of movies (VOB files) 3 TB drive. The other Windows 7 machine can play movies very well since Windows Media Center. But I have 2 other machines (a Vista 32-bit and a 64-bit Vista). The two Vista machines can see through Explorer, but in Windows Media Center movie files, nor machine can find movies when I try to add them to the library.
I use to have movies on discs smaller on Vista32 bit machine and all 4 machines could play movies very well.
Does anyone know of issues where WMC on Vista is not able to see movies on Windows 7 machines? Thanks in advance.

Windows Media Center photo date AND time
Is it possible to have Windows Media Center to deliver photos in Date AND time order. I have several photos taken at a given date in my folder, but WMC puts in the random time sequence in a date. My Pictures folder is in date and time order
Hi gingerandbuddy,
Follow the steps below to organize photos in media center in groups.
You can only group by alphabetical order and date wise, but you can also add the tag for photos that would make it easier to find photos.1. on the Start screen, navigate to pictures + videos, and then click picture library.
2. click on Folders to sort your files and folders in alphabetical order, click date taken to sort your folders and files by date or click tags to sort your files by tags that have been applied. (To learn more about labels and how to use them, see tag pictures so they are easier to find.)Play video and watch pictures in Windows Media Center

* Original title: Windows Media PLayer
I have Windows Media Player version 12 installed but when you try to play .mp4 files in WMP, I hear the sound but the picture is distorted and I can't see the picture. Please see image attached.
Even if I see that I can change the version of the file in a different format, I have the same problem with videos on websites that I can not of course change the format before playing these.
I managed to fix the problem for about 20 minutes by flattening my computer re - install the operating system and this resolved until all updates have been through, and then it disappeared again. I tried many codecs packs and this still does not help.
My system is running Windows 7 and Media Player version is 12.0.7601.18840, which tells me that Media Player is the most recent version.
Please can someone help?
Open uninstall a program in windows and in the left click on the feature to turn on or off windows. Clear the check box of the window Media Player, and then click ok. This will uninstall the drive, and then restart.
After restarting the same steps, now, check the box for the same and perform a restart and if all goes well it should solve the problem.
Note: Make sure that Windows is up-to-date.

Windows 7 Media Center Live TV and recorded TV no sound.
After the upgrade from Vista to Windows 7 and get all the drivers updated, Windows 7 Media Center has no sound for TV or recorded TV, but sound works for all other programs, including just play music in media center. Reading DVD and Bluray will similarly play with surround sound with HP DVD BD play, then it is certainly not an audio card/driver problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
An additional note: If you look at mixing devices, remember that you have multimedia running. If you do not, it may appear not as part of mixer. When I got a pronlem with no sound in WMC, but WMP worked (as well as my other apps), it turns out be the problem, but you would only see it when WMC is running.
Thanks, my TV sound is is arrested without reason, but everything except the sound effects in media center worked. turned out that some how the mixer was gone the media center to 0 and left it like that.
music media player plays even when he is selected in media center is not affected

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.

Group residential slow and other problems with it
Hello!I have 3 Windows 7 PC-s (office #1, #2 desktop and laptop). I created HomeGroup and join all computers, so I can access the files on each of them. But my problem is the following: homegroup is very slow. Loading files from another computer is very long and I can't watch movies on the wireless using homegroup, because it is slow and every two seconds of loading film. And also needed a few minutes to open the pictures (more than 10 GB in all folders) to a folder in the other PC. Why is this work so slow? I don't think there is a problem with slow wireless router, because I can replace my old Linksys WRT54GL Linksys E4200, which is able to transfer video HD 3D such as Linksys provide. What should I do to fix this? Should I change all the settings in Windows, perhaps in the router...?And why my laptop is not always visible to the other PC to homegroup? He see two others and two other sees, but they are not portable. This happens sometimes. But then I still share with homegroup libraries to my laptop and there still other computers see it and all shared libraries. Where is the problem? I also try to change the HomeGroup services automatically, but this does not solve the problem.If I forgot something to write, or you need more information, do not hesitate to ask.I'd appreciate any help really.Hello
