Re: Vista Ultimate and XBox 360

Have you moved the default location of TV storage?
This is really an odd looking issue. Is there anything in Event
Viewer on the PC?

It might be worth it to delete the extender - and remove the
association on the pc and the 360 and then re-associate it and
rediscover the library. Then, if you still have this error, can you
look in Event Viewer again?

The firmware on the DI-624 is 2.53
The 360 does have a hard drive

what firmware is in the DI-624?
is the user on the computer an administrator or limited user?

Hi Dana

The router is a DLINK DI-624 so it's not a gigabite router - BUT it is a
gigabit network port in the PC. I'll try swapping it.

There is no antivirus software (yet) as this is a new build for a customer.

Best regards

I seem to remember this may be caused by your router...by any chance is it a

Hi

Media Center in Vista Ultimate records TV in dvr-ms without problems. The
playback on the PC is superb.

I have an Xbox 360 which I have linked to the PC using Media Center on the
XBox. Pictures and Music work well but when I try to view recorded TV I
get
an error "Files needed to display video are not installed or not working.
Please restart Windows Media Centre or restart the computer". Please can
you advise what is casuing this problem and how I fix it. I have installed
an
extender within Media Center without problems.

I have had two long, expensive and fruitless calls to Xbox support who can
only tell me that dvr-ms is not supported. I don't understand. I have
posted
on the partner Vista forum and they have asked me to post here instead.

I am trying to deliver a solution to a customer and deadlines are looming.

Many thanks

Rob
