So i have a link that I can play in Media Player, by specifying Open URL . How can I save the address as a file, so I can hopefully play it in Media Center as a video??? Here is the link:

This works with open URL by installing...

Hello,

So I am new here. I've been using WMC for a while but in the past few months I have been getting errors on some files. I'll be watching a video file and at some point it will stop and say cannot play file . If I play the same file in VLC or XBMC at that point where media centre stops, the...

Has anyone tried the nero 2014 and recoded a large WTV file? I know in 2012 it would crash. The goal is to send them to the nexus or ipad for viewing on the train in a fairly easy way (via a batch at night or something)?

Is it possible for Windows Media center to play ISO files?

I am trying to remux .MP4 files (H264 video and AAC audio) to .WTV so they will show up in the Recorded TV list in WMC. I have tried using ToDVRMS but it just hangs forever while creating the WTV file. If I just kill the conversion (after several hours) there is a WTV file of a reasonable size but...

Yes. It is used for PS3 but it works for XBOX360 too. It's super simple to install and much less bloated than any of the other options (like Tversity, Orb, Mediahome) that I've tried. Here is the webpage. Norton360 indicated that the file is safe.

The settings I changed were:

1. In the General...

Hi,

Can someone please help me with getting .ts files to show in the recorded tv library. I've got a number of .ts files on a NAS. I've added the NAS folder to the library under recorded tv but they don't show up. I can play the files if I right click and open with WMC.

Is there a registry change...

Hello to all. I'm new to the WMC world and just got my Ceton card.

I DVR a documentary that's available in both English and Spanish. What I want to do is convert it to MP4 or any other file format so that I can send it to family and friends. Thing is my parents don't speak English and my friends...

Guys I am heavy into mp4's and mkv files. As of right now I use the Haali Media Splitter which I like very much. My problem is subtitles it seems that the splitter does not play back subtitles. So I would like to know if anyone here has any ideas on how to enable subtitle playback? I am not...

Recently installed 64-bit Win7 MC on an SSD after many many years of trouble free playback on 32-bit version (went to 64-bit version to fix memory issues)

Now when I playback old XviD stuff with AC3 audio Media Center totally crashes (eshell.exe) and drops me back to Windows desktop.
MKV's I can...

Hi

I'm running windows 7 64 bit and I'd like to replace the audio codecs so I can tweak the settings for live TV. I'd like to know if anyone has successfully done this before I open up a hornets nest of installing and using different codecs.

I'm in the UK and SD TV has mpeg audio with mpeg2...

Hi guys

Can I use a filter to give assistance in synchronizing audio and video for live TV? I am getting audio a split second before video.

I do not use a AV Amp/Reciever. I have my video going to my plasma with HDMI and my audio going to some hifi speakers via my soundcard's optical out. I've...

Does anyone have a recommendation on how to compress WTV files?

I have tried transcoding them to MP4 using handbrake- It works great for playing on my HTPC/projector but they look awful on the XBox360 extender (looks heavily compressed). Is this because the XBox h.264 decoder sucks?

I tried...

Here is what I am thinking. I would like to use the MKVs for Minimalists on Windows 7 but only Step 2 and Step 3, I don't need FFDshow unless I have to use it to make Step 2 and 3 work. Has anybody tried this and does it work?

Ok, this should be an easy fix but I can't find the solution.

I've got a regular old TV with HDMI coming into it from the PC, Stereo speakers.

I've also got a pair of 7.1 Wireless headphones.

I need the TV to disable AC3 filter from being used when it is the default playback device. AC3...

I believe so, but just figured I'd ask.

So I've got a bunch of Blu-Ray/DVDs with digital copy codes that need to be redeemed. For many of them, I have the option of choosing what service I want to redeem them through.

Usually the choices are Amazon, iTunes, VUDU, and UltraViolet (flixster).

Sounds like VUDU is out because its browser...

Hi

I'm using Windows 8 with the Media Center plug-in.

My problem: After watching live TV (Satellite using TBS 6981 card) for a few minutes, the sound starts to stutter and gradually gets worse until there is no sound. If I simply go up or down a channel, the sound is fine, then it starts to...

Recently when I try watching MPEG4 files there is noticeable and continuous flicker. These are MPEG files that I made from VOB files using Handbrake. This didn't use to happen and I don't know why it is happening now. At first I thought it was an isolated file, but it is all MPEG4 files. The...

Gang, I'm looking for some insight on m2st containers with mpeg2 & ac3. I keep reading tons of info that the Xbox extenders can handle it natively w/o any codec or splitter installs and on the media center extenders.
Yet, every bd rip I've tried the past two days results in pretty bad choppy...

Have a new ASRock with the main purpose being to view all of my movies in MKV through it. It worked for a while, but now doesn't.

I've uninstalled and reinstalled Codec packs (Shark007) and VLC and others. Each time, I end up being able to watch the movies through MP but never on WMC. Each time,...

Good morning all.

I have a very diverse array of file types in my media collection. This is the result of many years of me being ignorant to the different container/audio/video types. As such, since I began my migration to a whole home solution based around MCE/extenders back in the spring, I've...

I'm not having any luck trying to get codecs installed today. I first tried AC3filter and then ffdshow and can't get either to work. The installations say they completed successfully but they won't start when I try playing an MP4 with AC3 audio. The video plays OK but there is no sound. I don't get...

I'm looking to add metadata to video files quickly and easily. any ideas?
