electric6, go to this address https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?threadid=29813&sid=&hilight=Personal+cinema for informatioon regarding your problem. You are not alone.
I'm afraid there is no definitive answer to this problem. I have the same problems and the main protagonists MSI and nVidia couldn't give a . This is a serious software problem and it looks like it will never be solved. I'm running the latest Personal Cinema driver v56.64, which does actually load the capture driver, but NVDVD, NVREMOTE etc, have to be loaded separately.
Cheers.

Personal Cinema 5200 Sound Problem/DVD Question

Hi,
I'm running
P4 3GHz Prescott
1Gb RAM
Asus P4P800E-Deluxe with onboard realtek 5.1ch sound setup
MSI 5200 Personal Cinema 128
Two problems:
Firstly, I can get my normal 4 TV channels for the area I live in, however I only have sound on 3 of these channels. The other one has sound intermittently come on and off, I've tried re-tuning but that doesn't seem to make any difference (it seems strange that it's the channel with the best reception!!!)
Secondly, my motherboard came bundled with WinDVD 5, which unlike the Personal Cinema-bundled dvd player supports 5.1 sound...is there any way of getting the NVDVD/remote to open WinDVD instead of the bundled player? When I try to change the player that the remote opens, it can only find its bundled player...do I have to re-install the Personal Cinema software everytime I install a new media program so that it can find it?
Regards,
Nic

One more thing if the movie is on Full Screen in Cinema Display and the MacBook screen is down and I lift the movie switches to the MacBook as it should d and I get this message:
The selected movie won't play on one of your connected display
This movie can be played only on displays that support HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection).
Try moving the iTunes window to a different display. Make sure the entire window is on the supported display.
The same thing happens if it was palying in an iTunes Window or a Separate window.
Is this normal or another symptom of the problem with the sound and what may be causeing it?
Thanks,
David-Paul

Personal cinema 5200 fx

i buy a personal cinema fx 5200 everything is ok exept when I capture in movie factory or an other software program there is an inconvenience for about 2or3 mmdownside of the capturescreen.I have the latest drivers

I have a MS 5200. I got great results after I started reading the http://www.doom9.org website. I have scrapped the programs that came with the card such as Ulead and WinDVR. I now use the iuVCR recorder from IULABS at http://www.iulab.com and record AVI files using the Huffyuv codec. You can get it at http://neuron2.net/www.math.berkeley.edu/benrg/huffyuv.html and install it, the iuVCR will find it, then it's a matter of trial and error to get the right adjustments Then I take the TMPG decoder from http://www.tmpgenc.com/ and convert the AVI file to MPEG. One can get great results with this card, but trying to record and compress the video in one shot is the problem with this card, it's too much for a computer. It takes for example around 5 hours to compress a 2 hour film with TMPG. So it comes as no surprise that it doesn't work so well in it's natural state.

3d blaster personal cinema with another graphiccard?

hey.
i've got your tv tuner. While I don't have an agp slot for the card, i would like to use your tuner with another graphic card.
is that possible and if yes, how?
are there any drivers for linux?
cheers
Gnik

Just to provide an update:
I tried out the SR731 RF repeater with the Personal Cinema FX5200 remote (UR88A). It does not work.
Fortunately, by moving the RF receiver further away from the PC with a USB extension cable, the range improved.

Other version of Windows?
We need a little more info than that if you want anything remotely helpful from anyone here.
Take a look at some of the thread in here and notice the signature that most users have you can edit it in your profile information.
Then provide some info on what you did or the process in wich you installed the drivers and the utilities.
If you have a dual boot setup did you use the latest drivers for each OS?

[GeForceFX] Configuring NV Remote (nvarem.exe) to open different programs in Personal Cinema

Hi all,
We have an FX 5200 Personal Cinema card with the NVIDIA Remote Control and the NV remote software installed. Whilst this is OK, it is a little limiting. I wanted to change one of the assignments for the DVR software as we have updated WinDVR 2 to WinDVR 3.
I have trawled through the registry looking for entries that could relate to NV Remote or nvarem.exe but have come up with nothing.
Is there a way of hacking NV Remote to work with the programs I want, or is there other software that would work with the NVIDIA X10 remote control hardware?
On another note, is there better software the Intervideo’s WinDVR to view and record TV programs from the Personal Cinema card work with the NVIDIA remote?
Swin

Also, does this version of personal cinema support teletext? I can't seem to get this via WinDVR 3 or find out any info form MSI.

TV Viewing with FX 5200 Personal Cinema

Hi all,
Please please help me! The Personal Cinema FX 5200-VT 128 doesn't work!
The drivers are the latest version but i don't receive any kind of Tv Channel!

It seems you are pleased with the current software! Then why you are posting so many threads with problems?

FX 5200 128 Personal Cinema - Drivers

Please forgive a novice`s question. I`m having problems getting the correct drivers.
The card is used in a PC with an ASUS A7V8X-X, Athlon XP2600, 512mb, CDRom, DVDRom, etc. with Win XP Pro. The present ver. 4.3.51 I`ve made two attempts downloading new drivers - the first was from MS Windows update (ver 5.2.1.6 I think) which resulted in nView Desktop Manager lockup. The second, using MSI live update, caused me to lose my IR Remote icon and the sound from live TV (WinDVR). I`m back where I started and it seems I must await a unique set of drivers for Personal Cinema before anything will work properly. I have no doubt It`s me - something I`ve done or have not done. Any help welcomed.

No thank you, Grand Poobah Global Monitor Glenn, who's icon is a Starfish! (You know they have the same size of brain as a Goldfish!)
I've just off-loaded the the piece of c*** my post referred to due to the same kind of drivers. I did this at a considerable financial loss and thought other subscribers to this forum should have the benifit of my experience. Something they are unlikely to get from a company lickspittal like yourself. The thread may be two years old but I do not expect to have to replace an expensive vidoe card every two years any more than I would my car!

ChasP,
if we had any idea what problem you were having with your VGA card, then we might be able to help you ???
as it appears you don't want any help and just want to cause trouble, you're not likely to be welcome around these parts for much longer
oh, and in case you haven't already read and observed the Forum Rules, you're probably not aware that none of the admins or mods are in anyway affiliated with MSI, and are just users like yourself

5200 Personal Cinema MSI-8918 NEW SOFTWARE

Hello folks,
it seems newer Personal Cinema (but not from MSI) and NVTV cards are coming with the new Forceware Multimedia Application instead of WinDVR and NVDVD.
Who knows what is MSI's and NVIDIA's politics for upgrading the users to the new software?
Because the old software SUCKS! Just two examples:
- WinDVR deinterlaces during capture and makes a mess of your captured TV footage!!
- NVRemote has that nvgpio bug and can't be customized.
Let's ask MSI to give us the new software! Do you agree with me?
Thanks!

It seems you are pleased with the current software! Then why you are posting so many threads with problems?

FX5200 Personal Cinema TV Problem

TV Not working . No VCR no TV no S-Video
Please Help
I install new Nvidia drivers, and all works ok (exclude remote)
But WinDvr no screen any programs no from TV no from S-video and no from VCR. I connect my VCR to VIDEO-IN connector and if i change source to S-Video or Composite, or TV i see black screen and not more.
I not have any error messages when i start WinDVR
And i think that problem in drivers or in card(physical)
Please Help !!!! S.O.S !!!!
thanks

I`m no expert on this but I`ve had similar problems with my FX5200-128 Personal Cinema card which I have managed to solve. These have included TV picture without sound, unreliable TV capture and channel selection problems. It seems that to get good capture you must start off with a strong aerial signal for the card to work best. This is especially true if you experience poor channel lock.
If you have TV picture without sound then IMO this points to some conflict/incompatibility with video and audio on the PC. I started with simple onboard audio and only managed to get TV sound after adding a cheap SoundBlaster PCI card (make sure the onboard audio device is turned off in BIOS afterwards to avoid problems).
I also met a curious problem with TV Standard selection. I live in Greece and the TV Standard used here is PAL-B. The FX5200 setup insisted that this should be SECAM. This caused a lot of grief and the only way I`m able to get good capture is if I use nearby Turkey - which the settings happily accept as PAL-B. This is covered briefly in the User notes somewhere. So, depending where you are, you may have to log to some neighbouring country to achieve optimum capture.
Hope some of this helps.

Personal Cinema FX5200

Hi,
A customer bought an personal cinema in my shop, but now he want's to connect his coax-tv cable to the personal cinema card but he can't browse channels.
I haven't workt with the card yet, so I've got no clue on how to solve it, or how to configure the card that it works with an TV-Cable.
Could anyone help me and explain me how to configure it or give me a link to a manual that explains how to make it work with a coax-tv-cable.
I'm hoping that someone could give me a quick answer because I want to help that customer asap.
Thx In Advance.

Regards from Sweden Guys,
Same problem here! I have W2k and I at least got the remote to function as a cordless mouse. The channel selector doesn't work, the text TV buttons don't work, none of it works and to make it more frustration, if I used the mouse function to start the recording button, I got simply horrible video recordings, go figure...
I am getting excelent video recording now, no stutttering, no sync problems, just a great picture. I junked the uLead and the WinDVR programs and I use iuVCR or Virtual VCR to record a TV program in AVI format using Huffyuv codec, then I take TMPG to compress an 80 gig 2 hour film to 4 gig. Works great now!

Sound channel problem with Personal Cinema FX500

WinXP SP1
MBoard : ASUS P4S533
(CMI8738 on-board Audio)
MSI Personal Cinema FX5200 MS-8918
The problem is that in the setup of WinDVD, the only audio source i can choose in WAVE,
but the sound output of the video tuner is on Line-In, of course.
Because of this problem, the remote affects the volume of WAVE, and has no effect on the Line-In channel. And, of course, when recording, the sound on the wave channel is recorded,
so, no sound !
Any one encountered this problem ? I installed the drivers on the original CD.

After nearly 3 months, I came up with the answer myself:
I installed a new driver (639) for the CMI8738 on-board sound and now the "Line In" option appears in the WinDVR setup.

Problem with FX5200 Personal Cinema and DirectX 9 - serial reboots

I'm hoping someone here can help, because I'm pretty much at the end of my rope here. Here are my system specs:
HARDWARE
========
Motherboard: MSI KT6V-LSR
RAM: 2x 512MB Infineon PC3200 DDR
CPU: Athlon XP2500+
Video: MSI FX5200 Personal Cinema 128MB
HDD: Maxtor 160GB
CDROM: MSI DVD/CDRW Combo
SOFTWARE
========
Windows XP Home SP1
All available Windows Updates
Norton SystemWorks 2003
MSI bundled drivers and software
MSIDVD
MSI Personal Cinema
MSI Live Update 3
The problem is, I get serial reboots (computer boots to desktop, then reboots within a few seconds) unless I start in safe mode, or use MSConfig to disable all startup items. Enabling even a single startup item, no matter what it is (NVCPL, any of the Norton tasks, etc) results in serial reboots.
Troubleshooting steps taken so far:
=======================
Replace RAM - (single 512 or 2x512) no effect
Replace motherboard (same model) - no effect
Replace video card (same model) - no effect
Replace CPU (same model) - no effect
Replace power supply (w/ 450W) - no effect
Update all drivers, MBD BIOS, VGA BIOS, DVD/CDRW BIOS w/ Live Update 3 - no effect
Install Windows XP but don't install any Windows Updates - computer functions normally
Install DirectX 9.0b - serial reboots
Roll back to DirectX 8.1 - computer functions normally
Install DirectX 9.0a - serial reboots
Replace video card (GeForce MX440) - computer functions normally
Throughout this whole process, Windows XP was reinstalled clean about five times - just to be sure the issue wasn't caused by file corruption in the install.
Anyone have any suggestions? Do I have to go with a different video card? Or is there something obvious I've missed?
-Cameron

Try to put another video card on the computer.
Try the video card on another machine.
Try the lastest driver (there will be a new driver from http://www.nvidia.com tomorrow or may be a few days later).
Try the lastest motherboard bios.
Install the monitor driver.
Install WinXP SP1

Personal Cinema and S-Video input

My Personal Cinema FX5200 set up works fine on TV-tuner and Composite Video, and I get good picture quality, and good sound using the Ulead Videostudio 7 software ( and Nero VisionExpress, too)....but when I use an S-Video lead from my VCR into the break-out block, I get black and white images only. I can live with capturing from the composite leads, but why doesn't the S-Video lead work? I have checked and double-checked all the settings, and have run out ogf ideas.
Is anybody else having this problem with S-Video input?
Does anyone have any suggestions where I might be missing something?
Any help much appreciated...I don't like these little problems beating me!

Ricardo this is not solution for you. Using S-Video cable can be used for video signal transfer only.
Do you want to have picture without sound. I don't think so.
I have made similar experiments and I have copied old VHS cassettes to my old Qosmio G30. Later I have converted recorded material and created DVDs.
My Qosmio G30 has antenna in port and I have connected my VHS recorder to this port and transferred video and audio signal. I have for example started video on VHS recorder and started Windows media centre and scanned all channels and on channel 33 I saw my recorded material that comes from connected VHS recorder.
I have tested recording with Qosmioplayer and MCE. Using both options I was able to use record option and have video material on HDD.
I am sure the same can be done with G40. Check it out.
