How to view broadcast tv on Touchsmart with internal tuner

I would like to watch digital over-the-air tv on my Touchsmart420 using the built-in ATSC tuner.
I have connected a tv antenna to the computer.
In Media Center I get a message saying that no tv signal is detected.
Do I need a special kind of tv antenna?
Should the antenna be connected to the port that has an icon looking like a tv with rabbit ears on top (rectangle with v on top and arrow pointing in)?
The computer is HP Touchsmart 420, product # QB908AV#ABA
Windows 7
The installed tv tuner is AVerMedia H323 MiniCard Hybrid ATSC
I have updated the driver (appears to be same as I already had)
I have tried 2 different tv antennae, both receive digital signals when attached to television set.
Thanks for help!

In case anyone else is having difficulty with over-the-air tv:
I tried several different antennae and found that an amplified "rabbit ears" model worked best. I don't need an amplified antenna to get signal on a television in the same room, so perhaps the computer tuner is not as strong.

    Hi Experts
    I want to examine the OBIEE 10g Server config params using the JConsole. I tried to start the Java agent by, navigating to the directory *"<oraclebi home>\systemdmanagement”*, and issuing the command *“runagent”.*

    Please suggest . Thanks in advance.

    one you have the data in the infosource, for performance and holding history, you shoudl move the data in a ods or a cube.
    ODS for daily report, only daily data no history
    CUbe for historical Reporting and daily reporting.
    you wil need to create update rules. and process chain to load data in yoru data targets( ODS or CUbe). then create a query on them. play with the query how you want the data to show. try to USe 7.0 as its more flexible if not 3.5.
    you can broadcast it straight to e-mails using web broadcasting. other wise create web template( as define in the steps in the previous post).
    remember do everything in yoru SANDBOX system or Development system. do not under any circumstances do this in production or testing.
    any question feel free to post
    hope this helps.

  • How to view satellite image during navigation with google maps iphone 5

    I am a new iPhone convert. I switched from the HTC EVO that used Google Navigation. Google Navigation in Android allows the user to see the image of the map during actual navigation to be the satellite view instead of the standard map view. I downloaded the Google Navigation App to my iPhone 5 but I can't get the map to switch to satellite view. I can only get the satellite view up for the overview map. Once navigation starts, the screen pops back over to the standard map view. How do I view the satellite image during navigation? Please help....

    I don't believe that is an option in Google Maps for iOS.

  • Using FIOS TV with internal tuner card in a PC?

    I've checked the FAQs and many of the postings but haven't seen anything about this, which makes me wonder if I am looking in the wrong place :-)
    Is it possible to view FIOS TV using an internal computer TV Tuner card, and using Windows Media Center to view programs?
    I do not have any premium channels, like HBO, etc.  I have not purchased a tuner card yet, (pending the answers I get here), but what I have seen online for various types of internal computer tuner cards mentions Digital ATSC, Digital QAM, etc.  It seems to indicate I can connect the cable directly to the TV card if the channels are not encrypted, and therefore I would not need a set top box.
    My question is, can I connect the cable directly to the tuner card, without a set top box, or must I have a set top box in all circumstances?  Can I see anything without the set top box?

    Unless the tuner card has provisions for a cable card (would be rented from Verizon for $3.99 / month) all channels with the excption of the broadcast (OTA) and PEG channels are encrypted.  That means no ESPN, USA, SyFy, etc. - only the broadcast networks, andy local independents, and any carried Public Broadcasting stations. 
    Actually has been discussed many times - did you try the forum search feature?

  • How do i view photos in macbook pro, and while viewing how can i delete the unwanted photos with delete button?

    1 My questions are about viewing and managing photos from a folder.
    a. How do i view photos in macbook pro - i know the space bar thingy but does not help my purpose?
    b. While viewing how can i delete the unwanted photos with delete button?
    c. How can i increase the size of the photos that i am seeing in the form of icons?

    double clicking in iPhoto will open the photo.
    The left and right arrow key will move between photos, as well as swiping on a trackpad or Apple mouse.
    See >System Preference>Trackpad or mouse  for options and tut
    While selected or in the smaller icon view hitting the Delete key will delete the pic.
    Command Z will undo the last action taken.
    Periodically you have to empty the iPhoto trash.  iPhoto drop down menu>empty trash
    Same applies for viewing pics in a Folder NOT in iphoto,  Use the up and down arrows does not work in Preview, but as you know in QuickLook (spacebar) the up and down arrows will navigate.

    There is HDMI input with TV tuner
    To expand on my post above, the TV tuner does NOT have HDMI input. If you read the User Guide that came with the TouchSmart (p.7, 8), the TV tuner's input is actually an F-type coaxial -- you either use an antenna for an ATSC signal (over-the-air) or NTSC *analog* cable (which is become more rare all the time). You set it up using Windows Media Center, page 18 through to top half of page 22 document how to connect a set top box using various analog (composite or s-video) cables. You can not use component and you can not use HDMI.

  • How to View PDF slideshow created with Adobe Photoshop Album?

    Many years ago during the Windows ME era, I created several short PDF slideshows with software (Adobe Photoshop Album) that included audio.  I saved them to a flashdrive.  I believe I used Adobe Reader 7 to play them years ago.  I am now running Windows 7 and attempted to open/play the videos and all I could see is the individual slides with no audio.  Is there a way to view these slideshows with audio today?  Some of them have special meaning and I would appreciate any assistance on how to view them once again.

  • How to view a BI query with anonymous user in the portal

    <b>Hi Gurus,</b>
    Does anybody knows how to view a BI query in the portal with anonymous user?
    Cause when i try to view a query the portal always ask for authentification. And i don't want to sign with a user cause my portal is for everybody and if the user logged in it shows the roles that previously were assigned.
    I have the Netweaver 2004 with SP9
    <b>Thank you Very Much</b>

    do you have sso configured between portal and BW server, if yes the authentication pop up should not come.
    if you dont want to do sso between portal and bw server and still want to logon to BW query with anonymous user,
    in you bw server go to transaction sicf and navigate to DEFAULT_HOST->SAP->BW->BEX and double click on bex node in the resulting window, log on details section provide a default userid/password

    You can use command (it will show CN, OU, O, L, etc... and expiration date, of course):
    jarsigner -certs -verify -verbose pathToYourJar.jarI'd suggest redirecting output (>>out.txt).
    Bye.
