Re: Media Center with Vista



Visit Windows Update again. There should be a DVD decoder (required for Live/Recorded TV and DVD usage) included in the build. Additionally, your video card must meet certain requirements for Media Center in Vista. An unsupported card can cause "decoder" errors, as well as a missing DVD Decoder.

That did it, thanks. Now MCE is asking for a decoder, where can I get the
best one?

I have a 550 Pro ATI Tuner but I can't get Vista to recognize it when using
Media Center. I went to ATI's website but they don't offer a Vista driver for
that tuner.
Does anybody have any suggestions?
