Media Center and Aver tuner

I have media center pro on my 8.1 64bit system. I have an AVer tv tuner that is built into system. Media center Electronic program guide no longer working and the program will be gone with the new windows 10. How can I get an EPG for my Aver tuner to schedule recordings of favorite programs. There is none in the Aver settings. I contacted AVer but they said I had to contact hp. Anyone know what is going on?

 If you want to keep Windows Media Center 8.1 Pro with Windows Media Center and HDTV recording you can fix the Program Guide updates.  The issue was due to the Program Guide provider change on 7/7/2015 discussed here: http://www.avsforum.com/forum/26-home-theater-computers/2058850-big-wmc-guide-changes-starting-today.html What I did was re-setup the TV signal within WMC which switched the Program Guide to the new service provider:  Tasks>Settings>TV>TV Signal>Setup Up TV Signal    On my system it found many new channels that didn't work.  I removed them from the channel line up using: Tasks>Settings>Guide>Edit Channels. I have looked into a TV recording/program guide replacement for Windows 10 and if you have a Hauppauge TV tuner card, they do have a Windows 10 software offering on their home page at hauppauge.com.

  • Windows Media Center and Xbox 360 have stopped communicating

    I've had my Xbox and PC connected for years and have never had an issue until now. My laptop is running Windows 7, and has a wireless connection, but the Xbox is hardwired into my router. Now for some reason, the connection just stopped working. I
    tried deleting the old extender connection in Windows Media Center and generated a new pass code for it on the Xbox. When I enter it in, my PC tells me that my Xbox is connected to a different network, but it's not. I only have the one network and I know my
    PC isn't mistakenly connected to an unsecured, neighboring one. I've unplugged my modem and router, restarted the Xbox and my computer, checked my connection on both devices multiple times, but I can't seem to find a solution. So, what more can I do?

    Check the support web site of the manufacturer of your wireless router for the latest firmware update and install it.  If none is available, proceed to
    Reset Your Router to Factory Default Settings.

  • Mac Mini - Media Center and Multiple HDTVs

    I am interested in using the Mac Mini as my Media Center and would like to have it output to 2 HDTV's. One in the family room and one in the bedroom for instance. However, I want to play different content at the same time on both TV's. What is the best way to accomplish this?
    2 Mac Minis - 1 for each TV?
    1 Mac Mini and an AppleTV - Networked?
    Software or Device that I am unaware of that could stream different content to different TVs simultaneously?
    Thanks for your help!
    JM

    All my itunes music and videos, Netflix Streaming, Hulu, Amazon VOD etc., over the air HD content, any of my stored photos, DVD's that are on my hard drives.
    That lets out the Apple TV, then, without hacking the box. Running a couple of Mac minis with third-party software such as Boxee might be an option.
    I want preferably one device that can access everything the internet has to provide as far as TV and Movies.
    Not possible since there are so many different providers and formats, but you can come close.
    I want it to also take my over the air signals from the rooftop HDTV antennae and act as a DVR.
    That would require a system such as the units from El Gato or Miglia.
    I then would like for it to be able to network to my air, iphone, etc. so that I can then access all of this content remotely from anywhere in the world or take it with me.
    For that you'd probably need a Slingbox, unless someone here knows of software that would do the same job.
    Then, if it could all be controlled by one remote.....perfect.
    That probably will take one of the higher-end AV control systems to be able to control multiple devices, particularly multiple computers, all stored in an AV closet, from a single remote.
    I hope this helps some. If you do a web search for "mac mini media center", you'll find a number of sites and articles from people who've been doing the same sort of thing you're talking about, though perhaps not in such a complex setup. Those experiences might be useful to you.
    Regards.

  • When I open firefox,on one user account, it opens my media center and not firefox? any ideas?

    When I try to open up Firefox it tries to start in or opens my media center. But only on one of the accounts on my laptop.

    That is an issue with the "Cool Previews" extension.

  • How do you set up a TC as a media center and not a back up?

    Hello,
    I am new to Apple products. I have a 13" Macbook Air  and a 1 TB TC. I plan on buying the Apple TV. I am trying to find out how I can use my already networked TC to be used as a media center (to store pictures, music, movies ETC) instead of only being used for the Time Machine to back up my Macbook. Any help would be greatly appriciated.
    Thanks for reading and have a great day!!
    Jason

    Sorry Jason.. but this is not really possible.
    TC is a dumb hard disk in a router.. designed for Time Machine and laptops as a network target for the backups.
    It has minimal (to say the least) functionality.. ie file protocol for network.. AFP and SMB.. that is it.. sum total.
    No media servers. no nothing.
    And Apple TV is not really a media player.. it is a streamer.. it accepts a stream and displays it on a TV or through a hifi system. It is bound.. with bolts and shackles and chains to itunes. It can play itunes stuff from any computer running itunes.. TC cannot run itunes.. so as you can see.. it is merely a file store.
    So here you have it.. TC.. computer.. ATV.
    If you want to store itunes library on the TC you can but it is unwise.. without considering the following consequences.. it is slow to start up and fast to spin down.. making itunes have library location and streaming issues. More important in a way TC has no way to back itself up.. on the day the TC dies your iTunes library goes with it. Time Machine cannot backup network drives.. you will need to use a tool like CCC and then backup the files to an external drive plugged in where?? The MBA.. ?? In which case the whole thing is wrong way around.. put the library on the external drive and leave the TC to do what it does best.. act as a dumb backup target for TM.
    Now that is in Apple world.. of course you can use a real player.. eg WD Live TV and play files from the TC.. all the smarts of course are in the WD player .. there are none in the TC.. it is simply used as SMB network drive.

  • Is there a way to combine Media Center and Nettop?

    Hi there!
    I just ordered a mini-ITX mainboard including all the necessary components to set up a file server/media center combination. Now I realized I'll hardly need my real desktop computer. So to keep my electricity bill down I guess I'll shift to the new nettop-like thing for my daily computing needs. The question arising is:
    Is there any way to have a smooth media center UI for mp3/dvd/CD playback, but also have the option of running an ordinary desktop environment for more serious stuff? I don't know anything about xbmc, mythtv and the likes. I assume something like "have the user decide from kdm whether to run xbmc or kde" would work, but this makes for some very un-seamless switching between media playback and serious stuff. Is there some better way? I'd prefer running like xbmc, cause I expect it to boot faster than kde4, but I may be wrong...
    Any ideas anybody?
    Best wishes,
    Rufus

    You can run xbmc in full-screen mode and set it to start at boot.
    I have openbox running on mine but you could just as easily use kde or gnome. When xbmc starts full-screen there is no border so you can't tell that its really just an app running over a "normal" WM/DM.   If you need to minimize it you can just hit the \ button which brings it to "windowed" mode where you can move the window, minimize it, etc.

  • Contivity VPN Client, Windows Media Center and Linksys

    Has anyone had any issues connecting through VPN on Windows Media? I am using Contivity Client V6.01 (I've also tried some previous versions) and going through a Linksys router with a wireless connection. My laptop, which runs XP Home, runs flawlessly with the same client and the same connection parameters through the same Linksys router.
    When I first connect to the VPN site, it appears successful. Just a few seconds later, my wireless connection disappears. It's not just the media center, either -- it brings down my whole internet connection. Once the VPN client detects the loss of the connections, just a few seconds later, the internet connection reconnects. It's as though the VPN connection and my home network's internet connection are mutally exclusive.
    Anyone else find a solution?

    you might need to upgrade the firmware of your router and make sure that the configuration is right. because losing internet access at the same time will also be the cause of the configuration of the router.

  • Sound blaster Audigy LS, creative media center and creative playcenter wont install on

    Hello. I have a sound blaster Audigy LS card in my computer, it came as a bundle in my Sony Vaio that I bought in october of last year. I wanted to download the creative media center, or the creative playcenter. I went through the process of downloads and support and tried to run them on my computer it either says Setup is unable to detect supported product on your system. Click retry button to redirect your device and continue the installation. I've tried clicking retry and and the same message comes up. I have Screenblast Sound Forge . for VAIO and Screenblast ACID 4.0 for VAIO and wonder if thos two audio programs (came with the computer also) are in conflict with installing creative products? The operating system i am using is windows xp media center edition version 2002. Thanks in advance for anyone that can help me.

    Hi All,
    I am pretty much in the same boat but with an Audigy 2 Value Sound Card.
    Removed some old piece of rubbish card (6MB Aztech PCI 288 Q3D using a Trident 4DWave-NX Chip.... yes about 6 yrs old !) in my daughters pc and replaced it with the new one.
    Same error message i.e. hardware not detected... ihave already posted as im trying to find and install the right drivers. I have also tried the PCI-slot hopping etc etc.
    So what next people ?

  • Home Media Center and the MAC

    When will there be a MAC version of the Home Media Center????

    That's a problem
    You can increase the font size on the Desktop, you can increase the dock size, you can increase the font size in browser, but you CAN'T increase the size of the menu bar and menu items.
    Can also zoom in (System Preferences -> Universal Access -> Seeing -> Zoom -> On
    But that makes a) the display very pixelated and b) you have to scroll around through the content.
    Would be nice if Apple would make the GUI of Lion resolution independent scaleable

  • When I click on a photo, I now get Windows Media Center and can't get my photos. Can I get rid of this?

    I used to be able to click a photo and have it open. Now I have this massive page of "stuff" titled Windows Media Center. Can I get rid of this or find a way around it to view pix?

    Type '''about:preferences#applications'''<enter> in the address bar.
    Change that file type to the program you want to use.

  • MSI Media Center and WIN 2000

    The MSI Media Center does NOT work with Windows 2000! Will there be a Version that does work anytime soon?

    Hi Assaf,
    This gets to be more of a mystery!

    No, there is no sign any such a device in the boot up information, which is a bit strange isn't it? It lists my other stuff o.k. - see below.
    What other PCI cards do you have?
    I have the following installed:
    Network Adaptor 1: Realtek RTL8139(A)-based PCI Fast Ethernet Adaptor. The driver for this must be included in Win 2000 as I didn't have to install anything for it.
    Network Adaptor 2: BT Speedway ISDN PCI Card Rev. A (Win 2000). I had to install the driver for this from the supplied CD.
    Video Adaptor: NVIDIA RIVA TNT2 M64/M64 PRO. I installed the latest unified driver from NVIDIA (Version: 44.03
    Release Date: May 14, 2003).
    What puzzles me most is that when I rebuilt the system I started out with just the video card installed and no other adaptors (the card was using the Microsoft supplied driver) and there was no sign of the sound system then. So, unless there is something fundamentally wrong with the motherboard surely the sound should have been detected?
    Cheers and thanks for your help.

  • WRT610N v1 connection issues, media center and internet

    Good evening. I am having a connection issue with my wireless/wired connection and am wondering if anyone else has had the issue.
    I am running the following
    WRT610N V1
    Firmware Version: 1.00.03 B15
    Windows 7 Enterprise Edition
    I have an Xfxforce 780i motherboard with onboard dual 1gb nics plugged into the router.
    I am also using an Xbox 360 Wireless N device.
    The issue i have been having recently are two, both seem to be router related.  Sometimes while gaming or on the web I will losing connection to my gateway. I have both of my nic mac addressed reserved in the router.  On my windows 7 machine the internet connection will stop working and I will have to repair the connection. 
    The issue i have been experiencing with my Xbox 360 is sever choppiness while streaming recorded tv shows over my network
    For the most part while I am streaming the video's i am doing nothing else, it should be noted that i can watch the vidoes on the PC without an issue so the issue shouldn't be pc related.  I initally though maybe resource related but the vidoes run fine on the pc.  Restarting has no effect.
    I did do a hard reset on my router but that did not solve the issue.  The issue is semi random but the frequence is fairly higher.  Sometimes I will get through a full show or two and sometimes the quality of the steam will be horried. Where pausing and restarting won't do anything.
    I have used a direct wired connection and I still get the video degredation so I believe the issue is my access point.
    For the price that i paid for this unit, $200 - yes i did say 200 as it is a V1 model and i got it when they came out, this is one of the worst issue I have ever had.  
    I am going to test a netgear 54g tomorrow night to see what experience I get.
    I did some poking on the forum here and I noticed others have had some degredation issue but nothing seem to solve it even though their threads are marked as solved.  I have tried turning off windows 7 firewall and disabling my AV to make sure those weren't the issue, which they aren't.
    It should be noticed that my machine is the following and I am fairly sure the issue isn't pc hardware related.
    win7 pro
    xfx force 780i 
    intel e8500 dc 3.16
    evga nvida 9800 gtx ssc
    seagate dual 250gb raid 0 hard drive
    4gb g.skill pc8500 ram.
    I am adding more ram later this weekend to take it to 8gb and a new 1tb drive to transfer my media center data too. I do not believe this will fix my issue since the only issue I can see is the Linksys router.
    thoughts?

    Try these things, in this order:
    1. Disable Home Defender. 
    If that does not work, try
    2. Reducing MTU to 1300 (recommended by someone else on here for a throughput issue). This may not be relevant to you, but it doesn't hurt to try. MTU settings don't generally apply to in-network connections. But who knows what's what when it comes to this router.
    3. Disable Upnp. Some people, like myself find this setting necessary - but you may want to just go ahead and disable to see if that helps.
    4. You need to remove the name of the competing product (that router) from your post. I got banned from the forum for a few days for mentioning that I was using so and so router for the time being. Do it before the post is deleted or you're banned. 
    Good Luck. Let us know if anything here fixes your problem.
    Remember that you'll need to give the router 'time' with each fix separately. Don't  do all 3 things. Do 1 at a time and give the router a few days, to feel out if the solution works or not.
    Good Luck. 

  • Can't use WAP2 with XP Media Center and WRT54GL

    I downloaded and installed the patch from MS that supposedly enables WAP2 on XP, but when I switch to that level of security, I lose all connectivity. Did I miss something in the setup?

    First of all, give your network a unique SSID. Do not use "linksys". If you are using "linksys" you may be trying to connect to your neighbor's router. Also set "SSID Broadcast" to "enabled". This will help your computer find and lock on to your router's signal.
    Also, in the computer, go to your wireless software, and go to "Preferred Networks" (sometimes called "Profiles" ). There are probably a few networks listed. Delete any network named "linksys". Also delete any network that you do not recognize, or that you no longer use.  Also delete any entry for your current network.  Reboot computer.  Now return to "Preferred Networks" and enter your current network info (SSID, encryption, and key). Then select your current network and make it your default network, and set it to automatic login. You may need to go to "settings" to do this, or you may need to right click on your network and select "Properties" or "settings".  Reboot computer.  Computer should connect automatically.
    If the above does not fix your problem, download and install the latest driver for your wireless card.
    Hope this helps.
