I have a USB TV Tuner which works fine to watch TV in WMC. However, when a programme is set to record, and my laptop goes into sleep mode, I believe it turns off the USB TV Tuner, and therefore the programme doesn't record. WMC support center says that the program is able to record when the computer is in sleep so I know it is not the program which is the issue.

OS Windows 7 64 Bit ATI Radeon HD 4670 - Last driver update July 7th 2012 Driver version 8.970.100.300 TV Tuner - Hauppauge 950Q Mother Board - GA-H55M-S2V V1.4
I'm so at a lost as to why video won't work. I use WINTV7 and everything is perfect. Like to use WMC as it is had your tv listings and and quickly record what i want.
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?
I'm looking for some advice for a TV Tuner Card/Non Media Center.
I would like it to work both cable and over the air.
I don't have media center
Remote included
Able to record
no radio necessary
I guess that's it.
P.S. I have 2 9800 nvidia cards if that matters.
I installed a USB DVB-T TV stick together with the supplied software and driver. On loading the software it found the tuner and scanned and found all the channels and the TV appears on the screen. However, when I try to use MC it says there is no tuner available. Devices & Printers lists an Unspecified Device but names it as a TV stick and says the driver is fine and everything is working normally. Troubleshooter says there is no problem to troubleshoot. I have unplugged and replugged the device several times and have also rebooted several times with no avail.
View 1 Replies View Relatedevery time i run windows i get two drivers with a yellow exclamination mark beside it.
Conexant does not help you at all on their website, and HP does not help at all because i have windows 7 not their 5 year old windows MCE
The two drivers i need are
Conexant 2388x MPEG Encoder (Dual-Input)
Conexant 23800 Video Capture (Blackbird NTSC Dual-Input)
each time i try to uninstall and reinstall them i get an error.
the software for this device has been blocked from starting because it is known to have problems with Windows. Contact the Hardware vendor for a new driver (Code 48)
This is weird because it worked fine on windows xp, but not windows 7 no drivers for it??? and if not how would i request them to get that driver?
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.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm well aware that the WDTV devices (specifically, my WDTV Live HD) don't function as MC Extenders.And while I've seen developers out there that have hacked these players (specifically, this guy), I am unable to be able to get his hacks to work properly. I figure, I like the way Media Center looks in Windows 7, and it's a whole helluva lot easier to use than WD's menus (for example, I can't simply search for an artist or album or title while browsing through the Music folder), why not just try to find someone out there that's been able to turn WDTV devices into a WM Extender.

View 0 Replies View RelatedI'm in grave problem here. I just installed windows 7 x64 a few days back. And initially I installed the 32bit version of k-lite codec pack for my windows media player. The media center worked fine then. It was loading my ffdshow and ac3filter along as I checked it.But then yesterday I noticed that the same pop-up od recommended/express install of WMP came again. Initially I thought that it must be some bug or something, but then when my MKV and AVI files didn't work in WMC, I realized that somehow WMP x64 got triggered, and now it is using the x64 bit of WMP in WMC. And I just wanna revert back to 32-bit WMP in WMC.

I can't get eithe WMP or MC to play a DVD. I've set the region code. WMP acts like it will play, but then just goes blank, and MC says it cannot play the DVD. These are original discs, not burned copies. I have a custom built system, with 2 graphics cards (GTX 260 and a GT 220) 6 GB of RAM, and an i7 processor. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to turn off the sound on the media panel on my Toshiba A500-02J. The sound is muted when I mute it off the panel (that is, until I press volume up/down). But I'm trying to stop the beeping when pressing the volume buttons. I've gone to the system tray, and speakers, and turned off system volume. I've also gone to Sounds in the Control Panel but I haven't found anything specific on this.
I'm not sure whether I need to use a Toshiba application or just a general Windows one to turn it off.

The author in the article says to "restart" media center does that just mean to close the program and open it again? I tried that and it still didn't work.

View 6 Replies View RelatedI recently tried to use windows media center to connect to my xbox. I've had my hp laptop for over 2 years now and may have never even used WMC. But whenever I try to launch it, the blue wheel next to the mouse pops up for a second and then nothing. Nothing happens at all.
I've tried going to programs and features and turning off both WMC and WMP, restarting, and then re-enabling them. This has done nothing. I've even gone into Windowsehome and deleted all the files in it and did the disable/enable thing (I did, of course, make a backup of the folder). I looked through the programs and features themselves, hoping to find WMC so I could see if there was a repair option, but it doesn't show up. How can I make WMC work?
I started watching an OTA recording with WMC7 and about 2 minutes into it WMC7 stopped. A message came up saying it stopped & had options to restart WMC or go online (which appeared to send info to MS) and a 3rd option I don't recall. I just restarted & everything worked just fine.
I looked at event logs & found this. I did a search for that ntdll.dll but could not find a definitive answer to what caused the problem. The typical comments were to reboot or reinstall software. Is there anything from this listing that tells or hints at what caused WMC to stop?

I can't open any programs because of windows media center. I tried to access the "default program" which can be found on the control panel but still the WMC pops out and also the regedit in the start-up menu still WMC pops out. All my app icons are WMC. If i open it WMC will pop out. Lastly, I tried to make a system restore but it didn't work because WMC pops out again.
