    Windows Media Center does not work on both my XP and Vista computer. The two events lastnight

    Hello

    For someone to really help him, it is important to give as much information as possible.

    You say "my computer XP and Vista" are this one computer dual boot with XP and Vista, or is - the two computers 'single '?

    If it happened "yesterday" did you updated anything or whatever installed?

    Having only happened yesterday have you tried a "System Restore" to see if this corrects the problem?

  • Windows Media Center does not work when on a remote desktop session

    I have just Setup Remote Desktop on my local server and connected my laptop... whew that was a task in itself!

    Server - Windows 7 Ultimate w/Media Center installed

    Laptop - Windows 8 Pro w/Media Center installed

    I am able to run the Windows Media PLAYER on the remote desktop, and it seems to work fine after that I added the libraries to it.

    BUT

    When I run Windows Media CENTER I get a message that "Windows Media Center has stopped working... Windows is checking for a solution to the problem. "The message goes away and that's it.

    Anyone got any ideas on how I can get the WMC to operate on remote desktop?

    Not very well why this would be considered as a matter of "ITPro.

    It's probably debatable that MS really intended for MC to be used via RDP, I'm not sure they believed that the feature has been used very well at all judging by what they were doing in Windows 8

    However, there are two possibilities on the cause of this. An update of the RDP client can be the culprit, but it is not always a good idea to block any update.

    You can also the following reg key

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Terminal Server\WinStations\Rdp-Tcp

    added needs of the user group have included in its read access permissions. You can also use the run as Administrator option when you start Media Center.

  • Windows Media Center will not scan digital channels using a dual tuner (analog/digital)

    I have an AverMedia Volar Max tuner which is analog and digital double Windows 7 Professional
    Media Library 'sees' the tuner as an analog tuner and properly identifies all the analog channels, that I see on TV.
    However, none of the digital channels are detected. I have not found a way to "force" a search using QAM256 or any other research of digital formats.   Using the tuner, cable and connections the same BUT with a linux sotware (mythtv) all digital channels have been identified.
    Is the problem because its analog and digital modes? How can I force Media Center to see the digital capacity of the tuner?

    Might have been a better place to look for information on the AverMedia Max Volar tuner AverMedia USA site.

    If you had looked here to find the latest drivers or to read support information, you would have found:

    The support of the AVerTV Hybrid Volar MAX QAM signals on Microsoft Windows Media Center?

    Currently, Microsoft Windows Media Center does not signal QAM. You will need to use our AVer Media Center in order to receive the QAM signal. Please download the application on our website programs:

  • Windows Media Center will not be updated to allow the Blu Ray

    Hello

    I have an Acer laptop that supports Blu Ray disc, but when I go to play with Windows Media Center there is a pop up that says that "an essential element must be updated", but whenever I click "update", it tells me that my internet connection is not working it may not update. I checked and there is nothing wrong with my internet connection and library still refuses to update. Is there a way to force it to update? Or another program that will support the Blu Ray?
    Thank you
    Kerryn
    There is no native support in Windows for the Blu - Ray, including Media Center. You
    need a third-party Blu Ray player. What Blue Ray software supplied with your
    computer? It works as a standalone program?

  • Windows Media Center will not record shows?

    I just brought a new model of the series Gateway ZRX 6971, with touch screen

    I have upgraded to Windows 8 Pro

    Get the free download for Windows Media Center

    Previously recorded shows that has been saved so I still had Windows 7 has played without problems in Windows 8

    However, it won't save poster now because I have "insufficient disk space".

    But I have over 900 GB of free space!

    I tried to tweak the settings in the settings options and even tried to disable recording of HD!

    Still no luck!  Help!

    See my post "Windows 8 - record TV with Windows Media Center problem"

    The answer to my problem is in the penultimate position...

    I managed to solve it now by running a recovery job in the computer management application.

    In case anyone else has this problem, here's what I did:

    1. close Windows Media Center

    2. open the computer management application and navigate to the bottom of the tree in the left panel by selecting system tools-> Task Scheduler-> Task Scheduler Library-> Microsoft-> Windows-> Media Center

    3. at the top, the central panel find the "MediaCenterRecoveryTask" task, which should have a status of "Ready".  Right-click on the task and select run (status changes to "Running")

    4 wait for the task to do his stuff (the status does not change) then right click on the task again and select end (State dates back to "Ready")

    5. open Windows Media Center, which will realize that there is a problem and that it is necessary to rerun the configuration

    After the execution of the task above and completing a successful installer of Windows Media Center, I found I could record once more tv!

    Guess I'll never know exactly what was wrong, but I'll settle for having working again!

    Hope that works for you

  • Windows Media Center will not play a DVD, I get video with a loud noise and no soundtrack.

    When you try to play a DVD in Windows Media Center or media player, the video starts, but there is a loud cracking sound with no sound of music.   This Media Center has played the DVD in the past.
    My system is: Vista Home Premium
    NVIDIA GeForce 8500
    Hauppauge Win TV HVR-1600
    Realteck HD audio
    ViXS Pure TV - U 48BO
     
    I checked these devices using HP Hardware Diagnostic tools and they work.  I uninstalled the drivers and reinstalled.  Also updated all the drivers.

    Reading this forum, I tried to delete the file from library: %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Medial Player

    So far, nothing has solved the problem.

    Thank you for your response.

    I went through the steps.  He has not fixed the problem.  The good news is that I stumbled upon a fix.  I've uninstalled and reinstalled the Realtek Audio drivers.  Which corrects the problem.

    Thank you.
