Vista - Vista Television

09-30-2007

Hi there,

I've been using Vista since it has come out and since my main TV is located
connected thru the Vista PC i've had almost a year or so of watching TV with
Vista. I'd have to say that at this time I've had just about enough. I'm
debating switching back to MCE05, and Microsoft with their lack of effort or
support on the HDTV end is helping out that much more.
Basically I have one question, HOW DO YOU STOP THE VIDEO PAUSING EVERY 15
MINUTES OR MORE!!!???
I doubt I'm the only one with the issue of the video just p;ausing and the
HD's turning either on or off and the television you're watching turns out
ruined. A football game where every 5th play is halted and paused midair and
needless to say, that is pretty annoying. This is like clockwork, every
10-15 minutes my harddrives make noises in the unit and video flux. I am
very tired of this, especially since i'm running 2GB of memory inside, 2GB
out, and a Dual core processor.

I'm about to give up on Vista if no one at Microsoft seems to care about the
TV functions of their system.

Help Please or I may turn to Mac Fanboy.

Yes, this happens to me as well, when using Media Centre. It happens every
couple of hours or so, but not on such a regular interval. The sound often
stutters very quickly, and the pause goes on for about 10-15 seconds, until
hard drive stops spinning up.

Let's hope SP1 fixes it. It's very annoying.

The best way to watch TV with a PC is BeyondTV from
http://www.snapstream.com
You will never go back to Media Center!!
Plus it's free to try for 30 days.

I have 2 tuners, and it streams to my other systems on my network.
I sat in my yard yesterday watching Live TV stream to my laptop while
it was recording a different show and my wife was watching a recorded show
on our family room TV, all signals coming from 1 PC.
Never miss a episode of Ninja Warrior again!!!

I'm such a geek!!

I used to use that program about four years ago, when it was still called
SnapStream, but they do not support DVB-T digital cards which are used in
Europe and Australia. This is a shame, as it is a powerful program,
although it was a bit bloated for my old PIII, which I used as a streaming
HTPC those days.

hi again

I'm glad I'm not the only one with this problem. The way you said it is
exactly how it happens, the sound first stutters then the video freezes and
then after the HD's snap back alive they try to catch back up but as u'd
expect it's almost too annoying to deal with. I Also hope it's fixed in SP1,
i'd also hope that Microsoft might give a beta invite to those of us bitching
about these problems that are very important at the base of the digital media
revo that MS wants to control.

There have been a few other people reporting this problem as well, and I
think that the reason why there are not more, is because it is only
affecting people with multiple HDDs.

I for one would welcome an invite from MS to the SP1 beta

I know what I'm
doin lets see what it's got. And I may Ditch media center as the other bro
said if they don't get working with DirecTV sooner than later.

My tuners don't support HD.
But all it would take is a tuner that is HD compatible
and I believe you would just pick record.
I've seen HD cards on snapstreams website.
