Windows media center pc. Vista.
Auvitek ATSC tuner and Hauppauge HVR 1800.
The hauppauge has a radio tuner as well.
However, at any one time I can either have windows media center allow 1 TV tuner and the radio installed in WMC, or 2 TV tuners and no radio. In that case it says no radio tuner installed will have to go through tv tuner setup to set it up.
So I don't know what to do.
The radio tuner will work through the default application it installed with. But I want to use WMC to control it and both tv tuners. Anyone have this problem?
Problems with TV Tuner cards.?
Simply put, WMC isn't designed to handle that many devices. I believe Vista's version of WMC accomodates that setup but I haven't yet confirmed this.

Why does TV picture clip off edges?
We're watching a widescreen DVD on a widescreen TV (TV and DVD player are Sony) and the TV clips off the sides of the picture while our new MacBook does not - the computer shows more on the sides. The DVD player has been used with both HDMI cables and component cables. We've tried all the different zooming options on the TV, but no matter what, it still cuts off some of the side pictures.
Not cool! Suggestions?
Why does TV picture clip off edges?
You need to configure your DVD player and television settings.
Basically, you have to change the DVD player's video mode from 4:3 to 16:9.
Then, you must set the TV to display at full 16:9.
In addition, is the widescreen DVD anamorphic or not?
Reply:it seems like u did everthing u cud, now, u jus gotta call sony
Reply:there should be a function that brings the sides of the picture inward or outward. .

Best tv to get?
I am getting a brand new tv I just wanna know what is the best tv to get for gaming I want a big screen tv. Also amazing graphics for watching movies.
Best tv to get?
Asd - not enough info!
Do you live in the USA or?
What is your budget? It's a waste of time to recommend a 60" plasma when your budget is only $400 and it's a struggle to buy a quality 19" LCD.
Also, what screen size do you want/need? "Big screen" means 26" to some and 50"+ to others. Post answers to these questions and you might get a good, specific recommendation or two. Without this info, no one can realistically answer you. You'll just draw meaningless, inane answers like,"My biG scren visio 19' is to bitchin."
Reply:Here is a very accurate list of what are generally regarded (and reviewed) as the Top Lcd Brands in decending order: ****Sony, ****Samsung, ****Sharp,**** LG, ***Toshiba, ***Mitsubishi, **Panasonic,**Phillips,**Hitachi, **JVC, *Vizio, *Westinghouse, *Insignia,*Olevia
*= O.K. Brands
**= Good Brands
***= Better Brands
**** Best Brands
In my opinion you should stick to Samsung,Sony, or Sharp
P.S. check out the Samsung LN40A650!!(120 hz,1080p,50,000:1 contrast ratio,4ms response time) its one of the best lcds out there (i'll most likely be purchasing this model soon)
Let me know what you think
Reply:my big screen visio is totally bitchin'. you should buy one.

Reply:TV doesn't reflect reality in many countries. (Including the USA).
Reply:Well, that's not just Mexican tv.
Take a look at American, English, French TV...
As for the "average Latin American" person, remember there's no such thing. Latin America is as diverse as you can imagine.

you have to live in Mexico and learn things
dont judge something you dont know about

Reply:I guess the only Mexican channel you can get it SiTV.
Reply:Well, I would say that TV will always put what according to the society's standards, is considered good looking people on the screen. Last time I checked on my neighbors here in Arizona, none of them looks like Eva Longoria, Jessica Alba or Tyra Banks....
Also, keep in mind that makeup can do wonders.
TV industry will put on the screen whatever sells and good looking people sell on TV.
Reply:In mexico's all races I have white skin but that did not remove me mixity.
There are millions of Mexicans regarded as white but mixed like me, because at least we have an Indian ancestor.
But that does not make me more or less person, which is very true is that in MEXICO NO BLACK AFRICAN-AMERICANS.
Reply:Sorry to burst your bubble, on what you see on TV, but I think you have lots to learn about Mexican people,and the history of Mexico.
Also for you to say that the women in Mexico look nothing like the ones you see in person....tells me you have a lot to see.
and no i am not light skin white looking......but let me tell you that i am not your average brown lookin girl.
Sorry you have a lot more to see, and discover I encourage you go do that.
Reply:You didn't see black people on American soaps or sitcoms until the Cosby show either.
Reply:I think it has to do with their perception of beautiful, most of the men go ga-ga over light skin, blonde hair and blue eyes. And most men anywhere like the big boobs and butts.
I would relate it to US t.v. in this way, 60% of Americans are overweight- how many of the actresses in our Soap Operas are overweight? How many are more than a size 2??? The U.S. also has old people and balding men but you don't see them on daytime T.V. (unless you count doctor phil)
Sex and beauty sell no matter what country you are in.
Reply:What the heck are you talking about. There are no Mexican channels in the US because well.... we're in the US. They are called Spanish channels, and they consist of Mexicans, Puerto Ricans, Colombians, ext ext.

Get Man Off the TV and Onto Me?
Men out there, why do you veg out in front of the TV? Why do you watch tv for several hours straight and then expect us to get frisky with you only after you are good and tired of the tv? What can we do to get you off the tv and onto us? I am quite frankly getting tired of hubby's tv addiction, can I do anything about it?
Get Man Off the TV and Onto Me?
I think that it's just a man's way to stop thinking about his day. Men tend to be very simple creatures. So when they're stressed, they need to decompress. Once they do, then they remember that they adore you and that they want to be with you. YOU are also a part of that relief! That's a good thing. You would rather be a part of their release than a part of the problem.
I would let my man know what you need. You won't get it all the time, but maybe you can request some Date Time BEFORE getting intimate. Because men see it as a release, but women need a little bit of love and affection. He probably doesn't understand where you're coming from, just as you don't get where he's coming from.
Reply:My wife lives for TV. Expecially Reality TV. And I HATE IT.
I wish I knew the answer to this question.
Reply:Get a TIVO. He can record all of his favorite shows and watch them later. Also best is that it has a pause button, if you feel the frisky coming on pause what he is watching and go to town
Reply:i wish i could help you out but i have had the same problem-
Reply:I'm anxious to see the answers you get. I have that problem myself. Hopefully all the guys aren't offline watching TV.
Reply:Oh boy. So I'm not alone!
Reply:Put a hammer through all the TVs in your house that may get the point across.
Reply:Their is something on your side that is more important to a guy than the TV.......You just have to find a way to present it to him that will peak his interest. Don't fuss or complain about what he is doing just go dress sexy ( that is up to you what to wear to turn him on) then don't stand in front of the TV....That is a NO NO.....but beside it. If he don't respond then sit beside him quietly and wait. Then if he don't acknowledge you start rubbing around his leg or what ever......you get the idea....Don't think of the TV as the enemy but as a competition to drive you to up your game....In the end it will be worth it... Remind him what you can do that the TV can not.......Just have fun with it!!! just one guys opinion!
Reply:Do you have a video camera? Make a movie of yourself in something sexy, or nothing at all, and do a few provocitave moves on it. Whatever rocks your boat. When you're done, the next night tell your husband you're tired of the same old TV, and lets watch a movie. Put in the movie you made, and hope he won't choke on anything when it starts playing. He should get the idea. Oh yea, if you have any kids make sure they're out of the room.
Reply:they take you for granted and assume you will always be there so for them ..whats the hurry?
put some pressure on and watch them squirm. do what they do and choose the times that are best for YOU. make them feel like you have and dont' back down.
Reply:Try getting naked while he's watching tv.
Reply:None of us are ever happy with our lot are we? I have just the opposite problem - my husband can't be bothered with TV and I enjoy sitting down in front of it at night after everything is done and I'm ready to relax.

Reply:Meet him at the door (when he first arrives home) wearing nothing but a smile.

Reply:Well, for me all it would take is telling me she wants me on her...if she actually put on lingerie, I'd never turn the tv on again. I watch tv, because she isn't interested in me on her. I need some sort of entertainment. Don't tell me it's because I am a lazy jerk. I work all day to support her and the kids. She takes care of the kids and the house during the day. I come home from work and I help out with the kids, housework, cooking, shopping, and on the weekends I do all of it so she can get a break. She goes out with her friends when she wants and we try and get out once a month just her and I. It isn't because of my lacking in the bedroom either. She ALWAYS finishes at least once before me and I do anything she wants-if something is wrong she isn't telling me and that's her fault. So tell me, why should I turn the tv off. When I inquire about us having sex, all I hear is no(insert any excuse you feel like-I have heard them all). Once a month she wil tell me she is in the mood and proceed to give me maybe 1/2 hour. At least the tv entertains me when I want it to and it likes me.
Reply:Don't make your self so available to him. If he knows he can get it whenever he wants why wouldn't he just watch t.v until he's ready (hope you don't have Tivo0. If you refuse him a couple of times he will be itching for it. Go take a shower smell all nice and put on something sexy and simple right before you think he is done. Then pick up the phone and call one of your guy friends. When he approaches you brush him off all while laughing your @$$ off on the phone. Just do that a couple of times. He'll get the picture.
