    Re: Windows Media Center TV Pack

    Help with my setup please!!!

    I'm running a vista home premium 32 bit setup on a Q6600 with 4GB of Ram and a OnAir GT USB Tuner. 

    I installed the TV pack following the instructions in the text document, but I did not do a clean install.  I did install everything though, including the hotfixes, restarting after each step in the installation.  After installing the Play ready PC runtime x86, it took forever to shut down when i restarted the computer.  I ended up leaving the computer and coming back and it was at my logon screen, so I have no idea whether that step was successful or not.  Anyway, after everything, Vista Media Center looks exactly the same.  When i setup, i have no options for digital cable - it will only search for digital OTA signals and then It says it can't get any signal.   Interestingly, when I use the software that came with the tuner, It forms a list of digital cable channels but I can't get a signal for any of them - only the analog cable channels.

    I live in Raleigh NC and have Time Warner Cables HD digital package.  Anyone have any idea why this is not working?  If I can get this to work, great.  If not, I will just uninstall and purchase the HDHomerun.

    Thanks!

    In order for the tuner to work with QAM in VMC, it needs TV-Pack compatible drivers.  Your card may not have these yet.  In general the Hauppauge and HDHomeRun tuners seem to work the best with the TV-Pack...
