Re: Tuner failure in Vista MC?

Ok so this is what is "running" while live tv is on. ehRecvr and ehSched.
ehstart is stopped. while looking through my problem reports i noticed that
the MC Host Module stopped working. Could this be part of the problem? and
if so is there a fix out there for it?

Are you saying it is set to automatic however it is not running. Automatic
means that it should start automatically when you boot your system.
When watching Live TV does ehrcvr show as running in task manager?

Yes, and they had. But the Reciver service for some reason dosen't
want
to
start. Could this be the problem?

No dice. I went in and reset the Windows Media Center Scheduler as
well
as
the Windows Media Center Reciver to (automatic) and started both.
Went
to
work hopfull for success, but to my dissapointment the same tuner
failure
was
blamed for my shows not recording. So now what? I have run Media
Center
for
over 2 years in both it's xp and vista versions and have not had
this
problem
before. Any other Ideas?

Now scroll down to Windows Media Center Scheduler.Make sure that
this
service has started.The default Stratup type is Manual.

a tuner failure. My nVidia dual tv ntsc works fine if I watch
live
tv
or
record on the fly, but when ever I try to schedule a program it
fails.
Same
thing on my Ultima ATSC-LGMT Digital TV tuner. Works fine with
live
stream,
tuner failure when ever I schedule to record. I updated the
drivers
for both
devices. Any advice?
