Vista Tutorial - Windows Media Center is really Pi*&ing me off

I cannot find another message base that is specific to WMC so I'm
putting the problem here.



Can someone tell me why this would be happening? I set WMC up to record a
specific show, and it does, but in the middle of the show when I'm playing
it back (sometimes during a commercial even), I get this message on the
screen: "Restrictions set by the broadcaster or originator of the content
prohibit playback of the program on this computer". This is sooooooooo god
blessed aggravating, I cannot even begin to tell you how aggravating. This
has happened more than once on a couple of different occasions. But it does
not happen all the time. What gives here? Is it a setting within WMC, some
kind of security setting or something? I'm not sure of this, but I think it
was actually on the exact same show/channel each time. The new Knight Rider
show on NBC channel 3 in my local area. Is anyone else having this
aggravating problem? Thank you for your time.

being broke? ;-)

I use Pinnacle TVcenter Pro, along with WMC to record TV shows.

:-) Way to lighten the mood, I needed that. So in order to get around
this problem I have to go out and spend MORE money. My God, doesn't it ever
fricking end? Or could the software you're talking about possibly be free?
Probably not huh? Anyone else have any ideas as to what is up and how to
get around it? Thanks for the laugh Paul. :-) Oh, and I like the show
myself, but hey, to each his own. :-)

Hey, thanks for the info. So I'm assuming that that program runs on Vista?
I mean I don' thave to go out and buy Linux do I?
