Installing the WinTV-PVR-USB2 MCE
The
WinTV-PVR-USB2 MCE
is an external USB2.0 device with a built-in TV tuner
plus FM radio and hardware MPEG encoder.
The
WinTV-PVR-USB2 MCE
differs from the retail WinTV-PVR-USB2 version in that
the MCE version does not include a built-in remote control receiver since Media Center
requires its own unique USB connected remote control device.
To sucessfully configure a Windows XP Media Center 2005 system with
TV and remote control
, you will need to install the Hauppauge WinTV-PVR-USB2
and a Media Center remote control transmitter and receiver (included in some models).
