Sure, if you convert it to a iTunes compatible MP4 file. There are lots of Third Party iPod Video converters. Do a search for Videora, it's free and easy to convert from DVR-MS to MP4

Touchsmart Iq506t Windows 7, Unable to acess s-video input from windows media center.

System: Hp Touchsmart IQ506T
Windows 7
Avermedia (A327) Hybrid mini Pcie Tv Tuner (NTSC/ATSC)
I purchase this system used without an operating system. I installed windows 7 and downloaded the drivers from Hp. All drivers are installed properly and the Avermedia (A327) mini card driver can be seen in device manager.
Yet, the A327 tv tuner will not give me access to the s-video input. I can get tv thru the rf connection but I want to use the s-video because it has a cleaner signal.
Any information about the s-video port will be appreciated..
Thank you..

Hi Cnmarsh,
I understand you are having an issue with the Touchsmart Iq506t with Windows 7, unable to access s-video input from Windows Media Center.
I read from your post that drivers are installed properly and the Aver media mini card drivers are seen in device manager.
I was wondering if the any of the drivers in Device Manager have a Yellow caution?
Also, is the Touchsmart Iq506t software all up to date?
You could try to download and run HP PC Hardware Diagnostics tool with this link.

Is there or can Microsoft develop a app for smart TVs so you can stream from Windows Media Center

I have used Windows Media Center for years to record TV programs and have even sertup my kids Xbox 360 as an extender. I've recently purchased a smart TV which allows me to steam music and home videoes from Windows media player but ofcourse the .wtv
files will not play. Would it be possible to develop an app for Smart TVs and other devices so they can be used as extenders. I'm sure many people would be willing to pay for the app. I've tried some 3rd party extenders and not been
happy with there performance and I'd like to not need another box and remote. I'm sure these new TVs have the ability to do it will microsoft allow them too?

Hi,
I agree with S.Sengupta.
You may contact the support of the smart TVs and request a tool to match Windows media player.
Hope it helps.

Problem streaming from Windows Media Center to XBOX 360 with Airports?

Good evening,
I have been having an issue trying to stream windows media center from my windows 7 ultimate (64 bit if that helps) to my Xbox 360. My network setup is:
I have an airport extreme (G) that is plugged into my cable modem and my windows 7 machine. In my living room I have an airport express that extends my wireless signal through out the house but my xbox 360 is plugged into it via ethernet. I have a very fast internet connection that is stable but any transfer between my computer and xbox is very limited it seems. I was wonder if there is a way to get this to work better. When I lunch windows media center on the xbox it sees my pc and it shows the available files but when I try and move from one to the other nothing happens and eventually I get a can't connect error. Would I be better off not connecting via ethernet to the airport express and just buying a wireless adapter?
Thanks

You don't say how your devices are connected, whether through your Verizon router or some other way. If through, say, an Actiontec then you may be having bottleneck issues. I used to run all my devices through my Actiontec and got poor transfer speeds (it only handles 10/100). Moving everything on my network to a 10/100/1000 switch helped my transfer speeds to shoot right up ten fold. This way only the switch gets connected to my Actiontec and my network devices can still get out on the 'net if needed.
It's ok to try to reinvent the wheel, but just make sure it's round.

Zen X-Fi Streaming Music from a media center Help Please

Hi,
I just opened brand new Zen X-Fi 6GB checked out it's playback installed Creative Centrale and was ready to test media streaming. Here it is where my frustration started and I hope somebody can help me.
The system:
Windows XP Pro SP3
Antivirus Kaspersky Internet Security 2009 (tried switching off during tests as well);
Windows Firewall switched off;
PC Connected through cable to wireless router Linksys WRT54GX-v2
MAC filtering is off in router
X-Fi obviously connected via wireless. Sofware version on X-Fi: .03.0 ( I know there is newer version, haven't tried that one yet)
Media Server is enabled in Creative Centrale, name to server is given. Instructions on http://support.creative.com/kb/ShowA...aspx sid=52949 have been read, everything seems to be set according to description.
Zen X-Fi finds my Wireless network and connected after I initially entered wireless password. When searching for Media Server, only Creative MediaBox comes up. This proves that Zen X-Fi is able to connect to router and that it talks to media server on internet. However, it does not see my Media Center provided by Centrale. I have also J.Ri'ver Media Center running on another PC at home that also has UPnP server running ( which I tried to switch off and on during tests). Not sure if this inmpact Centrale MEdia Server in any way. I have also found UPnP Enable/Disable option in my router setup, again traid enabling and disabling it, not sure what should be the set up.
I have probably tried to start server 25 times. There were four possible outcomes:
. Finds only Creative Media Box. Happened mostly
2. Gets stuck while searching, nothing happens. Basically have to soft reset to start it again. On/Off does not work. This happened probably 2 times during my test.
3. Once I go back from list of media servers (with only Creti've MediaBox in a list) , and try to hit Media Server again, player freezes. I get almost black screen with little backlight, which can only be seen in dark environment. Again, no other option than to soft reset. This happened 5 times
4 It found Media Server from Centrale as well as my Media Center from J.Ri'ver MEdia Center. This happened once... during my tests. Almost felt like I won lottery... Kaspesky was on during this test, by the way. Connected to Centrale and heard music, it was fine. Could not connect to J.Ri'ver media center, but that is another topic probably.
To summarize. This is not acceptable if I have to try 25 times, with 7 soft resets and hope for one succesfull connection. Certainly there is something wrong and I can't figure it out. Can you please help me

Same problem on my laptop at work, at home it just hangs looking for media server. The media server name shows up in my network devices. I turned off my firewall, etc.
I can't believe there's no response yet, I just emailed customer support.

K8N Diamond - sound from PCTV media center 300i

I have the following mainboard: K8N Diamond (NVIDIA, nFORCE, 4 SLI Chipset Based) - which I am very happy with.
I am watching TV on my PC using: PCTV Media Center 300i.
I have not yet found a way to hear the sound from the TV. There is an internal audio cable (4-pin) from the PCTV card which should be connected to the sound card. But I do not where to connect on the mainboard.
Can anyone help ?

I'm not sure as I don't have anything plugged in on JCD1, everything is working for me without this cable. Of course at the moment, I don't have a TV card either.
I'll see what I can find out, you may want to send an email to the MSI technical support. This is just a public forum and I don't think they monitor it.

Media in CD / DVD drive not writeable by Media Center

I have a Qosmio F20 laptop running Windows XP Media Center 2005 edition, when I try and record my recorded tv program onto a DVR+RW I get the following error message,
Media in the CD/DVD drive is not writeable by Media Center
I have update rollup 2 installed.
Rgds

Many thanks for the info above. Ive looked at those pages but was not able to find the solution.
I can record using the installed Sonic recording package onto all of my discs, CDR CDRW DVD+RW with no problem.
I just wanted to record via Media Center in the hope that it would play on my DVD player attached to my TV.
My CD drive model is UJ-840S so I hoped I woudnt have the problem. As the info from Microsoft says that its
the UJ-846S that may not work without installing Update Rollup 2 for Media Center.
I saw the following explanation on the Microsoft page http://support.microsoft.com/kb/909083
The computer is using a DVD-RAM drive that was not supported in the initial release of Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005. For example, the problem is known to occur when you use the Matsu****a DVD-RAM drive model UJ-846S. This drive was not supported in the initial release of Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005.
Update Rollup 2 for Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 adds support for additional drives, including the Matsu****a DVD-RAM drive model UJ-846S. Without these updates installed, the UJ-846S drive will correctly recognize DVD-R, DVD-RW, and DVD-RAM discs. However, the drive will not recognize CD-R, CD-RW, and DVD+RW discs.
To determine the model of optical drive that is installed in the computer, follow these steps:
1. Click START click RUN type MSINFO32 and then click OK
2. In System Information expand COMPONENTS
3. Click CD-ROM The mode of the optical drive is displayed in the NAME section.
I will keep trying various Microsoft solutions and come back If I find the answer.
Thanks again.
Mike

Possible soulotion to slow Media Center

I have been reading posts about the slowness of the media center and read one that indicated that the downloaded version from interVideo worked fine. This got me thinking about the skins. It appears on my system 2.4 gig celron it is the TransitionEffect that is using 100% of my CPU, by going into my registry using regedit I was able to turn off alot of the overheads.
This also stopped my DVD from jumping so I can now watch it from the media center.
Main keys are
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER]\Software\InterVideo\Home Theater\TransitionEffect
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER]\Software\InterVideo\Home Theater\AnimationStyle
I also turned by TV and Radio preload off.
Be aware there is also some keys under
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE]\SOFTWARE\InterVideo\Home Theater
Hope this helps you too.

The other thing I have been playing around with over the last copule of days in HT on the P4 (I upgraded). By setting the remove software to one HT and the MMCIII to the other thread neither locks the other up when they are busy. I still think there are issue in the remote But I am sure that is MSI fault whit s**t programming.
I found the same to with turing off the OSD.

Creative Zen Portable Media Center + Windows 7 = Good Stuff

Found my old Creative Zen Portable Media Center the other day while cleaning. I had put it aside since I found the process of moving/converting AVIs to it really cumbersome. Just for fun I hooked it up to my new laptop running Windows 7. It found the device instantly and loaded drivers.
Then came the best part, from Windows Media Center I am now effortlessly able to move my AVI movie files onto the
Creative Zen Portable Media Center. Mind you, they still get converted but all that happens in Windows Media Center, no more wonky 3rd party stuff.
Then I was able to play those movie files on my Creative Zen Portable Media Center. Yes, woohoo!? I don't have to donate it after all.

Awesome! Thanks for sharing Sprung. Welcome on board!

Possible Windows Media Center Conflict When Viewing .FLV FIles

I am running IE10 on Win7 and just downloaded Flashplayer 11.8.800
I verified the download via the Manage Add-ons list in IE10 and saw that Shockwave Flash Object is available.
I also verified that FP ActiveX - with the correct install date - is among the populated programs in my Uninstall list of the Control Panel.
However, in my WIN7 Default Programs details all .flv files are associated with Windows Media Center and when I try to change that association there does not appear to be a way to link the .flv files to the Flash Player
or a way to disassocaite the .flv files from Windows Media Center.
With the setup the way it is now, when I download a .flv file and try to run it,
Windows Media Center tries to run it and gives me an error that the file type or the codex that created compression may not be supported.
How do I get the .flv files to run?

I use VLC media player for downloaded FLVs http://www.videolan.org/index.html

Windows media center to ipod

How do I convert recorded tv (wmv) from my media center to something my ipod will recognize, without buying extra programs?
I already tried windows web site and followed their directions. It did sync to my ipod but it's functioning more like an external hard drive and not a player.(i.e. I can see the files on my ipod if I open it from my pc, but not on the ipod menu)
When I go to itunes, there is more orange (video) space used on my ipod, but none of the tv shows appear on the tv/video/movie list. I know I'm missing something and I know there has got to be a way to make this work. Please help!

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
Try searching google for ways to convert .wmv files to .mov files. (or quicktime format (windows media player video to quicktime video))
Then use quicktime pro or iTunes to convert those .mov files to an iPod-compatible format.

File -> Add folder to library and select the top level folder where your music is located, most likely \Music\.
