More Media Center problems
Sat 26 May 2007Filed Under: Windows Vista | Comments Off on More Media Center problems
Since the last post on Windows media center I encountered another unexpected problem. I lost SBS! For some reason this channel no longer works. Initially I thought it was the driver but after reverting the recently updated driver – which coincided with the lost TV channel – it still wouldn’t work. I then decided to re-tune the channels – I avoided up to now as it takes over 1000 clicks to get the order correct. I was very surprised when it actually worked and I can now receive SBS. The cause of the problem remains unknown.
It may seem like the program is completely flawed but in reality it does work quite well for basic TV and recording but the interface and some basic functionality really needs a lot of work.
Media Center issues
