Now that Windows 7 RC Came out, the Theater 550 Card doesn't work. I tried the Hauppauge card and it also has issues with Windows 7 (Freezes all the time). What card is recomended by Microsoft.
It seems as much time and money I throw at the RC, Media Center doesnt work in Windows 7. Worked awesome in Vista (I'm going back to vista... ewww) It's supposed to enable awesome television for the home, you would think there would be some decent cards out there that anyone could buy at Best Buy or Fry's.
I have two computers. One a year old and one brand new. Both are running Windows 7 64 bit and both are running the exact same version of Windows Media Center. On my old computer I have my Windows Media Center TV configured for channel 3 and the cable attached to my internal TV Tuner card. Then, to access different channels I simply use the remote controller that came with my cable company set top box. Never any problems. Now, I am trying for three days to have Windows Media Center set up the TV stations on my new computer.
The device manager is finding the TV Tuner Card that I installed. All the drivers are up to date. I can use WinTV to find and play channels so I know there is signal coming from the cable...the same cable that feeds my old computer...I simply unhooked it and attached it to my new computer. So, it's driving me crazy that each time I try to scan for channels I wait for 10 minutes each time only to get a message at the end saying "no tv stations found" or something like that. What could I possible be doing wrong since everything is the same between the old and the new computer?
Has anyone figured out a patch or work around for encrypted basic cable ( that I pay for plus other stb's ) that works with a HDTV tuner card. I have a Hauppaug 1800 digital/analog PVR through WMC that has become useless since Comcast went all digital. LOL I live in an area between D.C. and Richmond Va. Get the irony in this, I am less than a mile ( as the crow flies ) from Comcasts antennas/dishes and a quarter mile from our state police communications tower. So it is imposable to get a single over the air channel with a great antenna and amp.
I have an "old" Winfast pvr2000 tv tuner card, My country switched to digital signal a couple of years ago so I can't watch tv anymore since this is an analog card. I was wondering is there a way for me to find some kind of other use for it or maybe some crazy way to connect a digital reciever to it cause they all have scart connectors and my card has nothing but the antenna in and out.

I have a Gigabyte P8000 Hybrid TV Tuner, and there is a problem. When I play in Analogue TV the screen is showing only black but plays sound. The digital TV shows ok the images and the video.I tried most everything i could do, I dont think is a driver problem, because all the other functions are playing normal.
My HTPC has 3 TV Tuner cards in it, all of which also have FM tuners.
What I would dearly like to know is can you choose which tuner card 7MC uses for FM broadcasts? Is there a registry hack or similar available to disable the FM tuners on the other two cards so the one I want to use is the only one available to 7MC?
I am looking for a radio tuner card that is windows 7 compatable that can tune or record AM radio bandwidth also if it can detect other bandwidth that would be an added bonus
I have an enter e210 tv tuner card with philips saa7130 chip.I have the drivers and wintvr 3 for xp.I want to know where i can find drivers for windows 7?
I am a relative novice at this. But I would like a recommendation for a tuner card for my windows media center. Currently I am trying to use a hauppauge 1250 tuner card but am not able to get digital channels, only analog. Am using it with a digital cable box with coax connection. This card is 3 years old. Would one of the newer cards work better for hd tv on my computer? I have downloaded latest drivers/software from Hauppauge.
WMC can see the tuner card (Ceton InfiniTV) but not the CableCard (Comcast). I've been working w/Ceton for a week and have changed out the CableCard with no improvement. I have not only disabled and/or turned off Norton, AdAware and SpyBot but have completely uninstalled them. I have uninstalled and reinstalled WMC. I have cleaned and optimized the registry. To no avail, WMC can see the tuner card (all 4) but does not detect the CableCard.
