Troubleshooting
Hardware Setup
A–3
I am using a TV in my
setup, but I cannot see
anything on the TV
screen.
Confirm that the TV is properly connected to the
computer. Refer to “
Adding a TV to your
connection
” in Chapter 4.
My TV tuner is
connected to a TV
antenna but I do not get
a broadcast signal.
Windows Media Center does not automatically
detect TV antenna signals during the setup
process. In order to properly get a TV antenna
configuration setup, select the manual
configuration option rather than the automatic
configuration option during the TV signal setup.
For QuickPlay run Setup again. Refer to “
Running
the Setup Wizard
” in Chapter 3.
Picture quality is poor
when I watch live TV.
■
Be sure all cables are properly connected.
■
If you have basic cable, try a signal booster.
A weak signal will cause picture quality to be
degraded.
■
Confirm that you subscribe to the channel you
are watching.
I cannot record a movie
that is playing on a
premium channel.
Some premium channels use copy protection
technology to prohibit or degrade recorded movies.
