    - Does Vista Media Center add any metadata ("tagging") for videos? I'm presently running XP MCE, and would like to be able to add additional metadata "tags" to videos, to help organize and be able to more easily retrieve a particular video... Does the Vista version of Media Center add any functionality in regard to "tagging" VIDEOS? For example, the abilty to define my own categories of tags. I've read that Media Center simply uses the metadata functionality of Windows Media Player. If that's true, then I assume the ability to define additional metadata for videos in Vista MC is still is pretty limited. I already have WMP 11, and while it does a fairly good job for organizing AUDIO (as long as you don't want to define your own categories), WMP's metadata features for VIDEO are fairly basic.

    - Stop Media Center from opening every time I turn on the PC I am a beginner here but I can't figure out how to stop or at this point just get rid of the Media Center screen from opening every time we start the PC or just walk away from it. I have gone to Windows Defender to disable the Media Center program from running at start up and it makes no difference. I am about ready to remove it but don't want to do something I will regret later. Any tips?? Tag: windows media center Tag: 185129

    - Windows XP CPU Usage I am sorry, but the Discussion Group may be wrong - the selection list is very long and I never found Windows XP. I have seen many posts that are related to my problem - CPU usage goes to 100% and computer freezes. I have Windows XP SP3 and Office 2007 Professional with Outlook. Since I installed SP3, i get a freeze almost daily and have to reboot. Looking at task manager, the biggest usage is sqlservr.exe Network Service. I have read most of the posts but don't think any are exactly like my problem. Should I uninstall SP#? Or buy a faster computer? I have a Toshiba Qosmio with 2 Gig memory. -- Sandra Tag: windows media center Tag: 185128

    - Live TV & FM Radio stopped working I have a new HP m9360f with a Hauppauge WinTV HVR-1800 card running Vista Premium (64bit) and 8 gb of RAM. When I set the computer up 1 week ago the Live TV and FM Radio worked perfectly. In the middle of last week they both ceased working. I have spent hours on the phone with HP who keep going through and reconfiguring, etc. I have even restored the computer to its factory install to insure no conflicts came over when I did the easy transfer from my old XP machine or installed McAfee. The radio finds the stations on seek but no sound plays (but the sound is working perfectly for everything else). The Live TV loads the guide perfectly and everything but nothing shows up when the channel is on and then finally it displays a message about Loss of Signal - Windows Media Center has stopped capturing data due to low data rate in the TV signal... etc. Yet, if I connect the same cable to a TV it works fine. Seems to me since nothing connected to that card is working now (but did 1 week ago) that either the new updates for VISTA are conflicting with the Hauppauge card or I have a faulty card. Nothing else has been loaded on the machine now from the original factory install. All help would be greatly apprectaited as I am at my last straw waiting for an actual technician at HP to call back and I guess bring the computer back. Thanks Tag: windows media center Tag: 185127

    - Building a Media Center PC with a Dell and a Hauppauge PVR-150 I'm looking to take a Dell Dimension 3000 and convert it into a Media Center PC. I'll be doing the following: 1) Putting in a new hard drive: Maxtor ATA/133 with a ATA/133 PCI card to support it. 2) Installing Windows XP Media Center 3) putting a Hauppauge PVR-150 card in it to record shows 4) Using the Media Center application to schedule recordings 5) Using the Media Center application on the TV to show/play all of the taped shows. I want to be able to hook up the following to the video out from the motherboard: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16882339047 It gives this warning: Please, check your PC & Video Card manual or manufacturer to make sure that your VGA card has TV-Out function capability through the VGA connector to ensure this cable will work for you! How do I determine if the video output from the MB supports this? One way is to just buy it from Ebay ($4 shipped) and try it :-) If that doesn't work, I could use a recommendation for a cheap PCI video card that will support this. Video quality is not super-critical because the quality of the recordings is not great to begin with. As long as my wife can watch her soap operas reliably and with a user- friently GUI. (unlike the Hauppauge Media MVP device) Any other gotchas that I need to know about doing what I'm doing? Tag: windows media center Tag: 185107

    - Download help...Is Media Edition XP Pro, or XP Home? I need to download the files that allow me to create a recovery disk for my XP installation, but the only two options are "XP Home Edition" or "XP Professional". There is no offering for Media Center. Which download do I choose, or does it matter? I am using Media Center version 2002 (actually it's not my computer...I'm cleaning out a malware infestation for a friend). Tag: windows media center Tag: 185102

    - Blue screen at random intervals, even after reformat I have a question about a problem i am having. I started getting blue screens at random times after having my computer for 3 years or so. Sometimes it's right after windows boots, and sometimes hours after windows is running. I couldn't solve the problem, so i reformatted and reinstalled windows. All drivers are up to date and correct, but I'm still having this problem. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Tag: windows media center Tag: 185100

    - Hard drive consumption Windows is consuming over 50GB of my hard drive space, and yet I can't come up with anywhere near that amount when looking at the detail of all folders and files (including hidden ones) that I can see. Can their be some huge files or folders that are not visible through Windows Explorer? One concern is that every time I shut down, Windows tries to download several updates, but it seems they never load...as I can shut down again, and it starts downloading the same number of updates. Any suggestions how I can find out what's consuming so much of my drive? -- Don Tag: windows media center Tag: 185095

    - possible virus. Hi I wonder if anyone can help me. I recently scanned my computer using norton antivirus and found a hacktool and downloader virus which I quarantined. Problem is that whenever I use my computer again it slows down and crashes as if it is still infected even though the scans show there is nothing on. Also, whenever i try and shut down the computer I get an error message saying "SVChost.exe DLL application failed to initialize as the windows station is shutting down." Also when I am online in safe and normal mode the internet connection intermittently terminates. I suspect that a virus is still on there... Any help would be most appreciated.

    - Windows Vista and Windows Media Center Up until last week Windows Media Center was working fine for me. It would d/l daily the tv program guide but then all of a sudden it stopped doing that. Now it says download programming data guide, 0 percent complete. When I click on the guide info itself, it says no data available, and I get a little popup saying Guide listings are still being download OK. The thing is it's been downloading for days then but nothing is happening. I'm using Vista home Premium. Is there anything I can do to get this working again? I sure would appreciate any help you can give me. Tag: windows media center Tag: 185063

    - MSVCP60.dll not found. XP Home Edition 32-bit, 3ghz pentium c2d, 1gb ddr2, 250gb maxtor sata. Yesterday explorer started starting and stopping for no reason at all. Norton found and removed one tracking cookie. Tried installing service pack 3 but Windows Update stuck at the downloading part. Shut it down, and couldn't boot into Windows today. Tried F8, all kinds of safe modes, last known good configs, xp repair console, none worked. Thing is when Windows complete initial loading, error dialog saying something like "Application failed to start because MSCVP60.dll was not found. Reinstalling the application may solve the problem." And it just stops right there. Solutions, anyone? Tag: windows media center Tag: 185059

    - Windows XP SP3 Download Failure I just visited the Windows Update site, and it recommended I download SP3, which I was happy to do. Immediately I get a window telling me that the installation failed. I tried this two different times, both with the same result. I managed to find an error code, 0x80200010, on some link. I have tried pasting this error code in every Microsoft (and beyond!) search I could find, and none returned any results. My computer is a 2001 home-built with an AMD Athlon processor (1 GHz, I think). I've got 1/2 Gig of memory. Not sure what else you'd need to know--oh yes, I'm running XP SP2. I just succeeded in downloading and installing IE7, thanks to "Taurarian" . Please help me! Tag: windows media center Tag: 185052

    - Firefox My Yahoo mouseover balloons no longer work, but IE's do Sometime within the last week or so, I've lost the little balloons which appear on Yahoo, when I would mouseover a news story, or a city in the weather module, etc. This only happens on one of my 2 HP XP MCE desktops. It only happens in Firefox 2.0.0.16. Java is the same on both machines 1.6.7. Settings are the same, as surely as I can tell. This is NOT, amazingly, related to ZoneAlarmPro (7.0.483) because bringing that down on the affected machine does not fix it. The little mouseover balloons work on Firefox on a W2k machine as well as on the other HP XPMCE machine. I asked Yahoo (actually, apparently, I asked a computer at Yahoo) about this and got completely irrelevant answers. Anyone have any insights on this? I'm posting it here because I have no where else to turn. Mozilla's not replying either. :( Thank you. Tag: windows media center Tag: 185040

    - Virus recovery without OS installation disk A friend of mine got a virus on his computer, and ask me to try and fix it. I have removed the virus and various trojans/adware/spyware, but the OS is still corrupt. I tried System Restore to no avail, it sayed the restore was successfull but the OS is still corrupt. He does not have the installation disk or a back up, for me to use to repair the OS. He has Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005, is there somewhere I can download the OS without having to BUY it?

    - Hauppauge PVR-150 question If I remember correctly, the PVR-150 came in two versions, the MCE version or the non-MCE version. (I may have this wrong, but maybe someone can set me straight). If it is the non-MCE version, does that mean that the Media Center application won't recognize my card? How do I know for sure which card I have? (the card is not installed currently - hopefully it can be determined just by looking at the card) Here's a picture of it: http://mysite.verizon.net/vze6mrju/DSC01864.JPG Thanks in advance.

    - Recording Past Midnight Last night I scheduled to manually record a program from 11:45pm to 4:30am. This morning the "Recorded Programs" menu shows it as a 289 minute (ie 4 hours 44 minutes) entry yet the recording runs only 14 minutes, stopping at midnight. Is the remaining 4 1/2 hour recording concealed somewhere else on my hard drive, or have I missed out on this due to a stupid MC bug? Tag: windows media center Tag: 185008

    - RECOGNITION OF DEVICES PLUGGED INTO USB PORT My pc has recently stopped recognising devices when plugged into the usb ports. If I plug my camera in I can access it through explorer but there is no indication that the pc has seen it and if I highlight the "safely remove hardware" icon, the camera is not listed for removal. I recently purchased an "all-in-one driver" device for the external connection of HDD's, CD/DVD drives etc. via USB. The pc does not see it at all and I cannot access it via explorer, but if I plug it into my laptop running XP home edition it reports "new hardware" and installs it. Does this sound like an OS software problem? Tag: windows media center Tag: 185005

    - Solution to problem with entering 2 identical digits on STB where only one shows up. ( MVP Awareness) I had a problem with my STB when I would enter channels with 2 identical digits. i.e., 22 would give me 2. 355 would give me 35. And I asked MVPs about it. While searching for something else on the MS Help and Support site I stumbled onto the answer. It's called " You cannot change a set-top box to channels that have equal consecutive digits in Windows Media Center Edition 2005" The article ID is 896480 It involves working with Regedit but fixed the problem. Now if I could only find out what is causing my #1 S-Video input to flash in small horizontal sections. It makes recording useless. Seems to be a bad cable but that isn't the case. #2 S-Video is fine. Set Top Box is fine. Is there a way to make #2 the DEFAULT tuner?

    - Repair Errors I received an error message identical to an MS Article 307545 (Registry Hive) and proceeded to fix. I was able to complete step one. Then, as Windows was opening and I could view the administrator desktop, it gave me and MICROSOFTSMLBIZ error message (SQL) and locked up the computer. I then proceeded to do a Windows repair. Now, in using a resource CD for Windows XP Media Center Edition, it gets locked up during the repair/reinstall while â??Installing Componentsâ?? and suddenly the monitor goes blank for about 3 seconds, reappears, the hard drive activity diminishes and the CD/DVD drive no longer is reading the CD. I have ran the boot utility to determine if there are hardware problems with all hardware passing these tests. Each time I try to boot, the system is aware that it is trying to install Windows and asks for the SP2 disk to continue. Otherwise, it is locked up and I have no other alternatives as far as I can see. Any suggestions? Tag: windows media center Tag: 184975

    - MCE not switching to correct tuner card WMC successfully finding my two tuner cards (WinTV PVR 150 connected to Standard Cable & Leadtek HDTV Cinema connected to an HDTV Over-Air Antenna) it seems MCE has trouble switching from one tuner to the other when selecting channels from the EPG. If I am watching an over-the-air HD channel then switch to a channel that is assigned to the WinTV card, it seems to look for that channel on the Leadtek card instead of the WinTV Card and all I get is static (since there is no connection to the analog input of this tuner.

    - Media Center crashes I have a Dell laptop with Windows Vista home premium installed and I have a problem. A while ago, I installed a program called mediacenter FX that allows you to change the "theme" of the windows media center interface. Media center worked great for about 2 months after that, but then it started to crash whenever I tried to use it. It happens any time I try to open media center, and the problem report that comes up is as follows: Product Media Center Problem Stopped working Date 7/14/2008 1:10 AM Status Report Sent Description Stopped working Problem signature Problem Event Name: CLR20r3 Problem Signature 01: ehshell.exe Problem Signature 02: 6.0.6000.16386 Problem Signature 03: 4549b55e Problem Signature 04: mscorlib Problem Signature 05: 2.0.0.0 Problem Signature 06: 47577b16 Problem Signature 07: f44 Problem Signature 08: 7 Problem Signature 09: N3CTRYE2KN3C34SGL4ZQYRBFTE4M13NB OS Version: 6.0.6001.2.1.0.768.3 Locale ID: 1033 Extra information about the problem Bucket ID: 147663311 Can anybody offer me any assistance with this problem? If not, is it possible to re-install just media center and not the entire operating system? Tag: windows media center Tag: 184954

The default location is C:\Windows\Ehome\Ehshell.exe. However, Media Center
only exists in Home Premium and Ultimate versions of Windows. If you're not
running one of these two SKU's, you won't have it.

You may also create a shortcut of the same.
