Media center crashing during recorded tv playback

In the last month or so my Windows 7 Media center started crashing during Media Playback (Unhandled ExceptioN). I've been using media center on this system and others for years and have never seen this type of crashing (expecially on Win7). While
I initially presumed that the issue was with a single system within a day or two I started to see the IDENTICAL issue on a SECOND system that I have that is also running Windows 7 x64. They run with completely different types of Motherboards, cpu's (both
are Intel but one is a Core i7-4770k and the other i7-2600k), both have different types of display adapter and displays (Display adapter on system 1 is NVidia GeForce GTX 650 Ti the display adapter on System 2 is NVidia GeForce GTS 450).
However given the fact that they BOTH regularly crash 2-3 times per hour I'm suspecting a recent update, both systems are set to download and apply all critical system updates. One system is playing back from local disk array (Raid), the other is playing
back over the network. Both have failed when payback is of local content the second system has also failed when playback originates from the first system (via network share).
System frequently has other applications tasks running so there could be conflicting tasks that influence, however system 2 is a dedicated system for recording and playback and runs little else besides Windows Media center.
Given the only STRONG commonality between the two systems is:
Version of Windows
NVidia Drivers
And given the fact that it's Unlikely that Microsoft is making any tweaks to Media Center on Win7. I'm STRONGLY suspicious of the update that landed on my machines in Late Oct/Early Nov. IS ANYONE
ELSE SEEING ISSUES with Windows media center crashing on Windows 7 immediately following an Update from NVidia? Details of my update are below.
nVidia - Graphics Adapter WDDM1.1, Graphics Adapter WDDM1.2, Graphics Adapter WDDM1.3 - NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650 Ti
Installation date: ‎11/‎17/‎2014 8:10 AM

Have you tried uninstalling and reinstalling graphic card or rollback?
I shall suggest you to update the driver from Nvidia's site instead of Windows Update.
You shall also look at the media center error logs to find out possible causes behind this issue.

Booklet crashing during fullscreen movie playback

My Nokia 3G Booklet crashes during fullscreen movie playback, usually after 30 minutes. I'm using the booklet to play to a LCD screen @ 1024 x 768 via the HDMI output. The movies aren't even HD, just 600-700MB Avi files. I'm using Windows Media Player version 12.0.7600.16415. Anybody else have this problem? The Booklet gets pretty hot playing movies too.

About the temperature you should not worry to much, I would suggest you just to try another player, such as GOM Player, and to see if you have same issue, also If you could submit some logs with the latest Error Logs from your system, so that we can check if there is a Kernel Power issue or it might be related to overheating of your CPU. I had seen full movies over HDMI and no issue with it. I guess might be some software issue.

Premire Pro CC 2014 and Media Encoder Crash During Launch

Premire Pro and Media Encoder crash during startup and are unusable. I am using Windows 7 Ultimate and already tried reinstalling Adobe Creative Cloud from scratch and it's still happening. I also tried following Adobes KB articles directions to rename the Adobe folder in my documents and appdata to no avail. When I try to launch either application, I get a generic windows crash message "Adobe Premire Pro CC 2014.0 has stopped working" and when I click problem details, it lists this:

I am having a similar problem.
Premiere Pro CC 2014 suddenly decided to crash every time I export to either Adobe Media Encoder or within Premiere itself.
The encode will usually go for 5-10 minutes before the programs either spits out a "serious error has occurred" window, or it just sits there frozen until I force quit.
I did find a work-around for the moment. If I open AME and FILE > OPEN, select my project and then the sequence I want, AND put it in Software render mode, it will work.
My timeline is 2K, 58 minutes in 23.976
Only effects applied are Lumetri LUTs - no third party.
I've exported as recently as a week ago without issue.
Running OSX 9.5 on an X99 board
3.75 GHz 8-core
64GB 2400 MHz RAM
EVGA Titan Black 6GB
Because I can get my renders out, I am not too concerned. Either there is something wonky with my timeline that screws with any graphics enabled rendering, or there is a bug that is have the same effect. I will try rendering on another of my edit bays that utilizes a GTX 580 that I KNOW works. The Titan is pretty new to my workflow.
Thanks Adobe, for checking this out.

Idvd crashed during recording dvd

I did a new project with 2 film made with imovie09 and extracted to quicktime one in full hd and one in 4:3.
Idvd goes well untill the moment of recording, when it is in the phase before burning the dvd.
He remains some minutes in analysing resource, and then crashed.
Do anyone help me why this happens, i did a lot of projet with idvd and never happened it...
thank you.

Update:
- The Application File Juicer was able to extract the movie as JPEG-pictures.

- This is a site where they can help you with damaged movies. I don't know if it's better than File Juicer, they are looking at the file at this moment. They answered my inquiry very rapidly though, and seems to be very professional!

I hope this is worth something for someone, this was not a funny trip... :P
(how in heavens name can an iMac crash during recording??)

G5 crashes during iTunes video playback after Leopard install

I have a G5 1.6 single-processor running 10.5.1. Since I installed Leopard, I have been experiences frequent crashes during iTunes video playback (TV shows bought in the iTunes store). The crashes hang my whole system and require a restart by holding down the power button. The video itself sort of "blip-blip-blips" during the crash, but the mouse and keyboard are unresponsive, windows don't do anything, etc.
Any thoughts? Anyone else with this problem? Thanks!

Ever since I installed Leopard on my dual 2ghz G5, neither itunes nor quicktime player works. They both crash on launch. Maybe not the same issue, but I'm regretting the upgrade.

Media Center Deluxe II Recording Quality

I am trying to find a better quality format to record DVD's with. The 720x400 does not seem to be sufficient for recording high quality DVD's with. Can anyone recommend a better compatible codec or fixes for this limitation? I am recording in NTSC_M_J which has 100 more vertical lines than NTSC_M. this helps a little, but I need better quality for commercial reproduction. Thanks,

How can I make Media Center Record a TV show on a TouchSmart 600-1055 and Windows 7? Can view the TV show without a problem but the "Record" button does nothing. Also I cannot change the record options as explained in the Users Guide.

Hi,
I think very clear from this angle:

Windows Media Center Crashes

Hi!
I tried to connect my Xbox 360 with my PC through Windows Media Center Extender. WMC asks for a setup key given by the Xbox. I entered the key and when i clicked on "Continue" button WMC crashed. This happened every time I tried. I also tried in
Clean Boot mode, but the program chrashed just the same as in normal mode. I need help, because I have no idea why is this happening.

Remove the existing computer connection
To fix this problem, remove the existing computer connection. Here's how:
On your console, go to the Settings and then System.
Select Computers.
Select Windows Media Center.
Select Disconnect.
Go back to Xbox Home. Select Apps and then My Apps.
Select Windows Media Center.
You should now see a setup key:
Set up Windows Media Center on Windows 7 and Xbox 360
Troubleshoot the connection between Windows Media Center and your Xbox 360

Media center crashed

I recently updated my dv6t to Windows 7. Since then I have been having problems with Media Center. When I try to minimize or maximize the screen it freezes and then most times crashees. Recently I have bee receiving a message bit rate to slow. Any ideas?

If You have you tracks in MP3 format you could put as much as 300 to 500 Tracks on a cd. I don't Know if itunes could do it. But Music Match will. I burn about 20 CD with better than 500 track on each. some had as many as over 600 tracks. It depends on the bit rate your files have at about 96 you could get about 500 at 160 where I now have mine I would say about may be 200. It really all depends on the bit rate.

Premiere Pro / Media Encoder crash during encoding

Afternoon guys, wonder if anyone has any tips on how to solve my issue. It's a new pc that I'm working on, my first project on it, everything working great in terms of the edit, but crashing whilst encoding both through Premiere Pro and Media Encoder with an error message (below). I'm not great with this stuff so please let me know if I need to provide more info and I'll provide much information as I can.
I'm a creative cloud user.
-Premiere Pro cs 6 (6.0.3) - I have tried to re-install the software, and ran all the updates yesterday after the install. Problem still persists.
-Encoder cs6 (6.0.3.1)
-Windows 7 Professional service pack 1, 64bit. Whilst I was online re-installing Premiere Pro windows did some updates (I generally keep my editing pc's offline).
-DSLR footage (.mov) for video, up to 3 sources of video (nested for multicam shoot) and running one source of audio (mp3 file). Two of the timelines I'm trying to encode are about 45 minutes long.. I have succesfully encoded other clips (a 5 minute, and a 35 minute previously. Miraculously this morning I encoded a 1h12m clip using the mpeg2-dvd preset with only adjustment of quality bumped from 4 to 5). So this was encoded after all the updates, however since then everything else is not working.
-Initially encoder was either freezing, or giving me an error message. Since re-installing all the software yesterday it now does not freeze, but I get the error message: "Adobe Media Encoder CS6.0 has stopped working... A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available." I get the same message when encoding with both AME and Premiere Pro. I click "close" from here and nothing else happens.
-Trying to export to mpeg2-dvd, I have tried the PAL widescreen preset, as well as trying to adjust the settings, doesn't seem to make a difference, the error message pops up different points during encoding.
-The only plugin I have used is magic bullet looks for some grading. It also fails to encode with no plugins used.
-PC     - Intel i7-3770 @ 3.40ghz,
          - 32GB ram
          - Operating system and Adobe Suite on c: (SSD 240gb)
          - Project source footage (video, audio, etc) f: (2tb)
          - Encoding files to e: (SSD 240gb)
          - my case is an Antec 902, with no additional fans. It does sound like it's working harder during encoding, not sure if a heat issue could be causing the software to error?
-I am using the mercury playback engine with a Gefore gtx 680 (2gb).
I have not been able to find any definitive answeres with regard to the crashes. I did also have encoder hanging whilst reading the xmp file. I have tried encoding video only (audio disabled) and whilst it doesn't hang during reading of xmp file, it still stops working with the above error message.
I also run an older PC with i920, 24gig, gtx570 and it never crashes but performs much slower. It is also running windows 7, same setup but different hardware. Not sure if the hardware on my new pc could be causing the issues, if you you guys have any troubleshooting tips it would be much appreciated. At this point i have tried starting a new project, new timelines, nothing seems to work, so I have transferred the data to my old pc for encoding (as I need to deliver the discs to a client), but I need to get this new setup working properly.
Cheers,
Stevan

Hi Axel,
Thanks for your suggestions, I just tried cleaning out the media cache and also rendered out a wav file of the audio and placed it in the timeline and deleted the mp3 version.. Tried once again to encode an mpeg2-dvd file.
1st attempt encoding through Media Encoder, pal widescreen with variable bit rate set to 6, 7 and 8 = everything froze, had to restart via button.
2nd attempt encoding through Media Encoder = this time tried video only same settings just no audio = same error (Adobe Media Encoder cs6.0 has stopped working...)
3rd attempt encoding through Premiere Pro, same settings with audio = same error message.
4th attempt encoding through Media Encoder, pal wide preset as standard with no change = same error message.
5th attempt encoding through Media Encoder, h264 preset for vimeo, 720p = same error message.
6th attempt encoding through Media Encoder, AVI (Uncompressed) 720 x 480 preset. 1m40s in the dreaded blue screen appeared. "A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer. A clock interrupt was not received on a secondary processor within the allocated time interval. " Bla bla bla.
In all instances the encoding is absolutely flying, but always ends up crashing.

Premiere and Media Encoder Crashing During Export of Quicktime Files

Premiere CC and Media Encoder CC crashes when exporting Quicktime H.264 files. Sometimes the export will work, sometimes it crashes the app. After crashing, the app will freeze while loading "ExporterQuictimeHost.bundle" and requires a hard re-boot of the system to startup again.
I have tried removing some Quicktime codecs from the Quicktime library folder, as suggested in other threads. This has not solved the problem.
I am editing with Quicktime ProRes 4444 files.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated. Here's some system info:
Mac Pro Mid 2010
OS X 10.9.4
2 x 2.66 GHz 6-Core Intel Xeon
36 GB Memory
NVIDIA Quadro FX 4800 1536MB
Blackmagic DeckLink HD Extreme
Cuda Driver Version 6.5.14
Creative Cloud CC 2014

I'm having similar problems. I can't export anything now...either from Premiere or from Media Encoder. My sequence is ProRes HQ, I am exporting using sequence settings.
It gets about 75% of the way through and bails with this error message:
Export Error
Error compiling movie.
Unknown error.
That's really helpful. Addtionally, when I tried to export out of Media Encoder, I was greeted by an extremely loud bleating goat noise when it failed. Nice. I had a room full of clients. Thanks Adobe.
I'm seriously doubting the claim of "Pro" at this point.
This was not beta tested with a ****.

FCP 7.0.3 Media Manager crashing during copy

I want to copy the used media from a project (used media is on an internal hard drive) to an external RAID drive using Media Manager in its "copy" mode. I do this when I have finished a project to "archive" the keeper video so I can clear up space on my scratch drive for the next import.
Media Manager starts OK but then crashes about 20 to 30 minutes into the copy process. Both the source and destination disk look OK in Disk Utility. Neither are full.
Tried with two different projects - both crash. Projects appear to be OK and successfully exported when last accessed.
Done this many times successfully in recent months. Only change I can think of is recent upgrade to OS.
Any thoughts on how to work out what is causing the problem.
FCP 7.0.3
OS X 10.6.8
6 Core Intel Xeon
24Gb RAM

It is the darndest thing. You know when you take your car to the mechanic and report a problem but then the problem mysteriously disappears, well, after I put up the post above, I ran Media Manager for the 5th time to get the error details when it crashes - AND IT DID NOT CRASH! I have just run the Media Manager copy successfully on 3 projects. Crashed 5 times, ran successfully 3 times. And I did not change anything. Weird?
Sorry to bother.

Crashes during recording iPad2

Started recording a smart guitar on my new iPad 2 and after 8 to 10 seconds the screen freezes but the loop keeps playing. Have to hard boot the iPad by holding the home button and power button to restart.
Ipad2 32 GB with a ton of free memory.

I started having similar issues of audio input randomly stopping in the middle of a take. I have not had a reoccurence by going to the control bar and turning off monitor (headphone icon) for the track that you are recording with. Prior to this I tried all kinds of things including deleting the entire song and powering off/on the IPAD and then creating a new SONG and importing WAV input that I was enhancing with additional tracks. I was planning to re-install Garageband, re-importing WAV input and saved songs in Garageband native format but I wanted to make sure I tried all of the fundamentals before going on to a more radical approach. Seems like such a simple fix but it's working for me so far.

Midi latency problems during record/playback

I am starting to use Garageband for midi recording--I am going through an M-Audio Audiophile interface by firewire--when I preview the software instruments everything is fine but when I record then the recorded notes are dropping out or delayed during record and playback--how can I solve thhis problem?
I have already followed the Garageband help suggestions for settings
I would welcome any help!

Do they have the same interface as you? I get very little latency on my iBook G4 and I am using usb 2.
Before getting my external drive I had been recording successfully on my iBook's hardrive. Besides eating up hardrive space I had no problems. Much of what I do uses GB's excellent software instruments and MIDI.
Software instruments are strenuous on the cpu and ram. What is your ram situation?
I also lock tracks as I go along, especially with software instruments. Avoid using effects during the recording stage, add the effects afterwards.

Hdmi sound problems with m9150f in media center

I am running a pavilion m9150f Q6600 vista 32 bit and GeForce 8500 gt graphics on a sony wega 55" lcd projection tv. Recently I have been having problems with media center sound. Recorded programs from standard channels (2-64) seem fine but hd channels (1341, for example) produce an error message stating "Unsupported Audio Signal. Please check device output." Which kills all sound from Pc. After shuffling through various output options, often returning to the original settings, and occasionally reinstalling devices or drivers, the problem is fixed. Then, seemingly at random, POOF!, error occurs again.I am at my wits end and am ready to throw my PC out in the street and hit it with a bus! Please help prevent its untimely demise.
Thank you.

Hi again
I have downloaded the Realtek sound driver from the Tosh page and unzipped it.
(I have chosen the driver for Vista!!! I suppose you use Vista???)
There is a folder called sound. Access this folder and run Setup.exe
But before you will start this procedure you could access the device manager (control panel -> computer -> device manager) and choose sound, video, and game controller. There you have to mark realtek AC and click on uninstall and reboot the unit.
After this sound driver removing you should start the new driver installation described above. (setup.exe)
