HP Integrated HDTV Hybrid Tuner connect to DirecTV?

Just bought the dv6t pavillion notebook with the HP Integrated HDTV Hybrid Tuner (coaxial input). I have a DirecTV HD DVR receiver (no coaxial output) and want to hook up the notebook to the receiver.  I called DirecTV and the man suggested to purchase an RCA to Coaxial converter, which I did, and still no luck on viewing any channels in either WMC or HP media center. I'm running Vista 64-bit.  Please help, this is getting really frustrating and I really don't want my $75 spent on this TV tuner to go to waste.
Surely there has to be someone out there with DirecTV and this HP tv tuner that had this same problem before.
Thanks in advance.

I spent a lot of time trying to get this to work in HD, inlcuding hours on phone with both Directv and HP. Seems the HD Directv will not work with Media Center, but you can use the HP media smart to watch downgraded tv not hd (needs a little device which directv supplied to downgrade the hd signal to standard). I ended up getting a standard directv pvr, so i can record shows using media center and media smart and have shows record while i am out of town with the laptop. You have to have a USB IR blaster to have media center change the channel.

  • Will the HDTV Hybrid Tuner work in India?

    Hi,
    I recently bought a DV4 Pavilion with a built in HP Integrated HDTVHybrid Tuner. I purchased this product in the US for a family member in India. Was just wondering if the Tuner would work in India.
    Any suggestions to get some additional hardware/software to make it work?
    Thanks

    If by "3G" you mean GSM, yes, assuming of course that you use a carrier that offers a data plan for the iPad.

  • How to set up connection for directv receiver, TV, and home theater system?

    Can some one please show me the CORRECT way to connect my Directv receiver (it has no HDMI), Panasonic Viera HDTV (has 3 HDMIs) and my Samsung home theater HT-Z510 (has 1 HDMI)? The second question is with the set up that you advise, can I play the TV sound through my home theater speakers? and How do I do that each time I want to listen the TV sound through my home theater speakers? I am new and confused about all this so please provide or explain step by step please. Thanks in advance.

    Making sense of your connections on a message board is never easy. Hopefully you can piece this information together.
    Direct TV box to Panasonic TV using S-video cable....assuming it's standard definition. Component video if the box is HD. Run standard stereo RCA cables to the appropriate input for sound threw the TV speakers.
    Your Panasonic TV will have a set of stereo(left/white,right/red) outputs. Run cable from that output into the same inputs on the Samsung surround unit. Use the sound units effects to acheive simulated surround. This is assuming you have no digital outputs on your box. If you do, you'll be able to get 5.1 when available using a digital connection.
    Good luck.

  • I bought an HDTV cable to connect my MacBook Pro to my Sony TV via HDMI so I could watch videos from my computer on my TV.  My TV then shows my basic computer background but the videos won't play.  What am I doing wrong?

    I bought an HDTV cable to connect my MacBook Pro to my Sony TV via HDML.  The TV recognizes my computer; I see my basic computer screen on the TV. I tried to watch videos on my TV but got nothing. (tried via my facebook vidoes and Youtube.  What am I doing wrong?

    I've got a similar (but different!) problem: I have a MacBookPro3,1 running Mac OS X 10.6.8. I want to connect to my HD TV using a HDMI to DVI cable but the MBP cannot detect the TV display. What's the solution? Is this a bug in Mac OS X 10.6.8 ? Any ideas what I can do to make things work with the HDMI to DVI cable. (N.B.: I have separate audio cable running from the MBP to amplified speakers for the sound side of things. It’s the video that’s the problem!)

  • Can I use Apple TV to connect to Directv on demand

    Can I use Apple TV to connect to Directv on demand

    No, however, if you play Directv on demand through your MBP then you're free to do it that way.
    An IOS device would be an iPod Touch, iPhone or iPad.

  • I am trying to connect to directv using airport extreme

    I am having great difficulty connecting my directv wirelsss connection device to my apple airport extreme.  the directv wireless device will not accept my security code.  I had the directv technician over for 3 hours and we could not solve the problem.  Help!!!

    DirecTV wireless capabilities are quite limited for a modern product
    Make sure that the name of your AirPort Extreme wireless network contains no apostrophes, exclamation marks, asterisks, dollar signs, etc.  Use only regular lettters and numbers.
    For example, if the name of your wireless network is
    kikuum's wireless network
    DirecTV will never be able to connect. Change the name to something with only letters and numbers, no spaces, and no more than 20 characters. So, for example  you could use something like
    kikuumwireless
    You may also need to lower the security setting on your AirPort Extreme router from the default WPA2 Personal to WPA/WPA2 Personal
    Open AirPort Utility, click on the AirPort Extreme icon and click Edit
    Then click on the Wireless tab at the top of the window to access the settings page
    Click Update at the lower right to save your new settings

  • Can i have IVR feature with ccm 6.0.1 integrated with cisco unity connection 2.0.1

    Hi
    can i have IVR feature with ccm 6.0.1 integrated with cisco unity connection 2.0.1.
    And tell me a solution  how can i go for IVR with this design.
    Thanks.
    veera.

    Yes, you can have a basic IVR with CUC, no one can tell you how to design your CUC, that's up to you and your requirements.
    All you need are call handlers, caller input and greetings.
    If you need someone to do all this for you, engage with a local Cisco partner.

  • Jabber Directory Integration in hybrid mode

    We are running Jabber in cloud/hybrid mode.  Meaning we use WebEx connect cloud for IM/Presence but use our on premise CUCM for voice services.  This works great for the most part.
    We recently had Cisco enable "Directory Integration" for our ORG domain.  This allows us to export our users from AD, create a CSV file and then upload this CSV file to Cisco's SFTP server to be imported into Jabber.  Everything is scheduled and requires no user intervention to add/deacitvate users.  We have the import working and are able to get accounts created.  The problem is that enabling Directory Integration has disabled our ability to manually update user profiles and our users ability to upload their contact photo from the Jabber client. 
    From the docs it looks like we can specify a webserver that hosts our contact photos.  But this webserver would need to be wide open, no security so that Jabber can access the photos directly.  Seems like there has to be a better solution.  
    Anyone else running a hybrid deployment and tackled the contact photos dilemma?

    Hi Venkat,
    Yes, we installed a Windows 2008 with AD-LDS. Configured CUCM to sync to this AD-LDS and then configured Jabber to use UDS (CUCM 8.6(2) feature). This way Jabber has (indirect) access to the multi-forrest AD data.
    Used this document to configure the AD-LDS (https://supportforums.cisco.com/docs/DOC-16356
    Regards,

    PS. One thing we learned in this is that you've got to be carefull on selecting the "user-id" field. We initially used "mail" as the user id to make sure all accounts are unique but found out that when using Extension Mobility the user-id input on the phone doesn't accept very long usernames (which you might encounter when integrating based on the mail attribute).

  • Integrated ITS 6.40 - Connect to SAP R/3 4.6 C

    Hi,
    here first the tecnical details as required :
    SAP-BW 3.5 SP 15
    SAP R/3 46C
    Web browser IE 6
    Integrated ITS release 6.40 Kernel patch level 105
    I am trying to establish the ITS connection in order to be able to jump from Web reports to a specific CO transaction in SAP R/3. Given my poor technical knowledge, it is not working but I have already made the following check and settings.
    - in SICF, I have activated the service 'WEbgui' following the path SAP/BC/GUI/SAP/ITS.
    - I have made sure in the profile of the instance that both parameters 'itsp/enable' & 'em/global_area_MB' were properly maintained.
    But it is unclear to me how to maintain the entry in table TWPURLSVR. What I have done so far is the following :
    - logical system corresponding to the target client in SAP R/3
    - Web server of the BW instance   /sap/bc/gui/sap/its/webgui
    - Web protocol : HTTP
    - GUI start server of the target client in SAP R/3
    When trying to make the jump from a Web report, I get the following error message stating :"http://host:port/scripts/wgate/webgui/! call was terminated because corresponding service not available."
    Any help would be appreciated (and rewarded)
    Thx
    Stéphane Beguin

    you can call a transaction of BW system using the integrated ITS.
    for ex. for Txn SE38 it will be
    http://host.domain.com:port/sap/bc/gui/sap/its/webgui/!?~transaction=se38
    but from BW system's integrated ITS you cannot call a transaction of your R/3 system (which is on 4.6C)
    if you want to call a transaction of R/3 system from your BW query you have to have a standalone ITS installed. (yes separate server).

  • New D-Link router won't connect to DirecTV cinema kit

    Just got & installed a new D-link DSL 2750B yesterday. I set it up with my existing SSID & WPA passcode -- all my devices work perfectly, EXCEPT my DirecTV cinema kit which is a wireless receiver. IT was fine until the new setup. I spent ( so far ) over 5 hours trying to set this up. The DirecTV techs ( 2 ) I spoke with don't have a clue. I reset everything multiple times to no avail.  The DirecTV forums list several resetting steps, all of which i tried. Nothing. If anyone has any clue as to what i can try, I'd certainly appreciate the help. The router didn't come with any manual and I'm not too comfortable changing any settings other than the security mode ( WPA, etc ) without some guidance.Thanks in advance.

    Bottom Line: If you have a Dlink DSL2750b from Verizon and are trying to install DirectTV cinema connection STOP RIGHT NOW and save youself the five hours I just spent learning that the two are simply incompatible.
    For some reason no one at DirecTV knew this and put me though endless paces to no avail, including a change to my router password that now means I have to reconnect all of my devices.
    Once I learned in DirectTV forums that this Dlink modem router is incompatible with DirectTV I called Verizon and the tech agent said, "Oh yes that one is incompatible with DirecTV." And he cheerfully ordered a free replacement, the Actiontec GT784WNV, which I haven't gotten yet but was promised it will be fine.
    Two Questions:
    1) For DirecTV, why in the world isn't this a known issue for your tech team so that they don't have to belabor consumers with hours of troubleshooting that does no good.
    2) Most importantly, for Verizon, why in the world do you even send out a modem that isn't compatible with the growing use of internet connection equipment for TVs? Or at least tell us before we order them.

  • Integration Engine does not connect with SLD

    Hi all,
    We have an XI 3.0 system that acts as QUA system in our track. This XI 3.0 system is connected to a central SLD installed on a PI 7.1 system that acts as our DEV system.
    Everything seems to be OK in the Java part. We refresh the caches successfully and enter the SLD in DEV system.
    We have a problem, though with the SXI_CACHE transaction. It shows the following message:
    "Unable to refresh cache contents.Error during last attempt to refresh cache"
    And the detail of the error is: "LCR_GET_OWN_BUSINESS_SYSTEM - NO_BUSINESS_SYSTEM"
    We have checked in the SLD and the Business system is created.
    In transaction SXMB_ADM when checking the Integration Engine connection with SLD we get the following error: "No access to system landscape at present"
    In the Runtime Workbench of the system, when checking the Cache Connection, the Integration Engine part shows a warning. In the RWB also the Self Status Check of the Integration Engine gives errors:
    "Are roles in SXMS_CONF_ITEMS and SLD consistent?"
    We have already followed all the post installation guides, and the cache checks, and SLD checks guides.
    Do you know which the soltion could be for our error??
    Thanks!
