Simple question to ask but maybe less simple to answer based on some of the reading I have done.

I have used Shark for years on my Win7 MCE box but with Win10 almost everything is playing (still havent figured out why some of it does not).

What is the recommendation here on the forum? Yay or...

I have a HDHomeRun Prime that I watch TV through several Xbox 360s via Windows 8.1 WMC. It has worked well for several years, with minor issues. About once every 3 or 4 months, WMC would just loose the tuners. It would usually be a 15-20 minute ordeal to reinstall the tuners, but the system would...

I normally do an end of year error report. This year I experienced 120 errors but I'm not going to post them in detail because they all have to do with Schedules Direct (SD) growing pains .

This year we all experienced them and my take on it is this... Every time we had some glitches, when we...

I noticed just in the last week, that many of my directories show as empty in WMC, when I can see the files there in Windows explorer. Or WMC shows episodes 1, 5, 8, 16 of a TV show (for example) when I know there are a total of 20 episodes in the directory.

Any thoughts on why this might happen?

Installing a wall mount 75 Samsung TV and want to hide the cable box behind the unit . So I need a IR box to install behind the unit to repeat the signal to the cable box than run a IR wire around to the front of the TV.

P.S. it needs to be I.R. so the Samsung remote will work no R.F. repeater
Any...

I went to do this yesterday and put in the channel number and got the message that the channel does not exist. Turns out this was a channel that I had moved as our network channels on the local cable are not sequential like in some markets. For example we have 1003, 1008, 1030 and 1061 for CBS,...

Like almost everyone else, when I'm done watching TV I go 'back' to the main menu and leave WMC running when I turn off the TV. Occasionally, I have a solid green screen when I turn the TV back on, no cursor or anything.

I can press 'enter' and the screen comes back, displaying the channel guide....

Hi, since not long ago the only TV signal I am able to receive is DVB-C (digital cable). I am an owner of TBS5520SE, although there is no option of using it with WMC. It does work using DVBLink TVsource, but the company is shut down since a year and I'm unable to purchase a license after the trial...

If you have stable Ceton InfiniTV PCIE 6 tuners with Coax adapter(s) you’d be willing to sell, send me a PM with an offer that includes priority/first class speeding shipping to Houston, TX.

Have some issues here on my old Xbox 360s. Both Xboxes giving me media update require to playback TV. One Xbox was unable to update. It died last night and will not turn on. The other Xbox works but somedays I get the media update message. It's probably close to death also. Anyone else having...

Greetings.

I've got two HTPCs each with an InfiniTV 4. PC 1 is wired to the LAN, PC 2 has an Archer T6E (AC 1300). PC 3 also has an Archer T6E (AC 1300). The wireless PCs (2 & 3) currently share tuners (2 each). That setup has been in effect for years. Previously I ran older 'N' 450 TP-Links...

I wasnt sure the correct forum to post this, so I am linking to my post in the Ceton section here.

Does anyone have any ideas how to fix this?

I have a pretty large music library, all in flac. I use WMP Tag Plus so that WMP/WMC will properly read the flac tags. Each file has an embedded 600x600 album art as well as a folder.jpg in each folder at 600x600. I'm currently using Windows 11 but later versions of Windows 10 caused the same...

I can delete something I watched, without a problem. Most other actions, the kind that bring up a dialog box hang. Example, delete a series, change drive to record to. Posting here to see if it is an issue for anyone else. My hardware is old, but, does not show any obvious sings of failure....

I just noticed on my DMA2100 that when the video is set to 1080p it's only doing 1080p 30hz. The stations in my area are a mix of 1080i and 720p. If I set it to 1080i it is 60hz. What would you guys recommend I set the resolution to? Thanks for your input

If you have one in good, working condition, let me know your price. Shipping to Kansas.

I've been juggling a lot of recordings around in order to record as much of the Olympics as possible.

One of the things I've needed to do is offload recordings from the WMC recorder storage drive to an external USB drive in order to free space for new recordings.

I've added the E:\Videos\Olympics...

Running on the same W7 system for many years with windows updates turned off. I have a recent problem that is making WMC randomly hang. It only happens during ui actions. Playback is not affected. Randomly when an action is selected WMC hangs for up to 5mins. It always comes back, but it is very...

Have a Ceton InfiniTV6 in my Windows 7 PC running WMC. Cox Cable just transitioned to transcoding all cable TV to 720p, so I want to add an OTA tuner to my system to allow OTA channels to be recorded alongside my Ceton doing its Cox thing. My OTA antenna is positioned as of now receives all local...

I am a new user of this forum. Suddenly last week, all of the thumbs on my library of recorded TV programmes have disappeared when I view the list within WMC. All the recordings are on a separate drive. I did have a cloned backup of my SSD and I tried booting up from that. When I started WMC, it...
