Tobb555 Posted June 4, 2004 Share Posted June 4, 2004 I have windows media player 10 beta and was woundering if there is a way to watch TV on it. I have a TV card but cant get the crappy ATI software that it came with to work. I know that WMP and do just about everything so i just assumed that i could watch TV on it. Thanks alot.

Nexus- Posted June 4, 2004 Share Posted June 4, 2004 I have a TV card but cant get the crappy ATI software that it came with to work. Crappy? I love MMC and the tv app it has mainly for the perpose that you can make any app in MMC transparent so you can watch tv and still see the rest of the stuff runing on the computer and use it. Surf the web and watch tv or a movie or a dvd. Type a report and still watch tv etc. I love it. In fact ill let you know how much i do love it; the tv card i have is an off brand (avermedia) and it came with a remote that works only with the bundled app but i gave that up so i could use the ati tv and it doesnt work with the ati tv. dunno ive never got to watch tv in wmp (mainly i figured that why have tv in wmp when theres windows media center edition app which shows tv.) If you could tell me what the error is i could help you to get the ati app working. Make sure you installled all the extra stuff to get the main mmc software installed i think there is another thing that you have to install to get it to work. says it all somewere on the ati site when you download the mmc bundle.

cal2002 Posted June 4, 2004 Share Posted June 4, 2004 WMP 10 is not a TV Tuner. It does however, have added support in the library for DVR-MS files recorded with Media Center PC's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
