Release notes for Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005
Article ID : 887793


INTRODUCTION
This Microsoft Knowledge Base article documents known issues and other information about Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005. These known issues were not previously documented in a Microsoft Knowledge Base article at the time that Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 was released.



Create CD/DVD

• When you create a video DVD, Media Center may not be able to create a DVD of some recorded TV shows. This issue will cause a "Create Failure" error message or an "Unsupported File Type" error message after the creation has been started. Try to re-record the show at the same quality setting or at a lower quality setting.
• If you try to create a CD or DVD and you receive a "Create Failure" error message, Media Center may exhibit strange behavior. For example, the disc may appear full when it is not, and subsequent tries to create a DVD may fail. To avoid this issue, leave and re-enter the Create CD/DVD experience. Additionally, you can quit and restart Media Center.
• The audio on a video DVD is down-mixed to be dual mono instead of true 2.0 stereo. This means that surround sound or stereo effects will not be present.
• When you create a video or a slide show DVD, the computer can require as much as 6 gigabytes (GB) of free hard disk space to create temporary files. If this space is not available, the creation process could fail, and you may receive a "Low Disk Space" error message. Alternatively, the computer may stop responding indefinitely. To resolve this issue, make sure that there is enough hard disk space available before you create a DVD.
• If you use new DVD media in a writable drive, the "Insert Writable Media" error message may still appear when you try to enter the Create CD/DVD experience. This issue may occur if the writable drive does not support the particular type of DVD media that you inserted. For example, some drives only support DVD+/-R media. These drives would not detect DVD+RW/-RW media. See your hardware documentation for more information.
• Only content on the Media Center PC can be added to a CD or DVD in Create CD/DVD. If an item that is not on the Media Center PC is selected in Create CD/DVD, you receive an "Unsupported File Type" error message, and the item is not added.



My TV
Record/PVR
• If you manually rearrange channel order, the schedule recording priorities may change. If you previously made decisions about which show to record when there was a recording conflict, these decisions may be overwritten by the priority of the series. After you reorder the lineup, review your recording schedule for conflicting recordings.
• After you upgrade from Microsoft Windows Media Center Edition 2004, the default recording quality is reset to 'Best.' You can check your recording quality in the TV Settings menu. To do this, follow these steps: 1. On the Media Center Start page, click Settings.
2. On the Settings menu, click TV.
3. On the TV Settings menu, click Recorder, and then click Recording Defaults.
4. Under GENERAL RECORDING DEFAULTS, you can change the recording quality by selecting the -/+ scroll control next to Quality.
Enhanced channel scanning is now available for TV viewers who receive a PAL broadcast who have not downloaded Program Guide information or do not have the Program Guide available in their region. After you upgrade from Media Center Edition 2005, you must redo your scheduled recordings to map to the correct channel position.
• Metadata may be missing for DVR-MS files that have been manually moved to your My Videos folder. This issue only occurs when the file belongs to an ongoing series recording on your Media Center PC.
• Manual recordings that have automatically inherited metadata, such as 'Title', will not update if you change your Guide provider. The show will continue to record on the time that is specified, but the old metadata remains. You can cancel and re-create the scheduled recording.
• If you start and stop the Media Center services while recordings are in progress, files may be created that have ".corrupt" or ".recovering" file extensions in the Recorded TV folder. These files are large and cannot be deleted from within the Media Center UI. You must manually delete these files through Microsoft Windows Explorer.
• You cannot migrate the 'scheduled recording list' by using the File and Settings Migration Wizard. You can copy the Recordings.xml file to an external media source before you upgrade. The Recordings.xml file is located in the following folder:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\eHome\Recording
After the upgrade is complete, stop the Media Center Scheduler Service, and then copy the Recordings.xml file back to the Recording folder. To do this, follow these steps: 1. Click Start, click Run, type sysdm.cpl, and then click OK.
2. Right-click Media Center Scheduler Service, and then click Stop.
3. Copy the Recordings.xml file to the following folder:
C:\Documents & Settings\All Users\Application Data\Microsoft\eHome\Recording
4. Restart the Media Center Scheduler Service.
5. Open Media Center, and then verify the schedule.
If you experience a signal loss while you are recording a DVB-T broadcast, the History entry for the recording does not report the signal loss.
• While you are recording, Media Center might experience a loss of audio data or video data from the TV Tuner. Media Center stops the recording and restarts it to try to recover. The recording ends up in two pieces.

TV Playback
• After you set up Media Center in a set-top box configuration, if you press LIVE TV, the stopped screen may be displayed. If you press RESUME, the TV plays correctly.



My Videos
• If you change Media Center from full-screen mode to windowed mode while a video is paused, the video automatically starts playing. This does not occur for Live and Recorded TV or DVDs.
• If content from a shared network location is being viewed through Media Center, and you do not have read/write permissions to that share, the video thumbnails will be regenerated on each visit to My Videos. To avoid this, change the permissions to enable read/write access.

Playback
• If you install a new version of Media Center over an earlier version of Media Center, Digital Rights Management (DRM) licenses on the Media Center PC will be erased. This means that recorded premier TV content that has copy-protection enabled will not have licenses, and you will not be able to play them after you install a version of Media Center. To avoid this, you must back up and restore the DRM licenses. To do this, follow these steps: 1. Start Windows Media Player.
2. On the Tools menu, click License Management.
3. Click Change, select a folder in a partition that is not erased by a new installation of Media Center, and then click OK.
4. In the License Management dialog box, click Back Up Now.
To restore your license after you install a new version of Media Center, follow these steps: 1. Start Windows Media Player.
2. On the Tools menu, click License Management.
3. Click Change, change the location to the partition and the file name where you saved the licenses, and then click OK.
4. In the License Management dialog box, click Restore Now.

Your protected recorded files should now be viewable.


Setup
• The following information is for the French Media Center release only:
When you upgrade from Windows XP Media Center Edition 2004 to Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005, if the recorded TV storage was set to a drive other than the C drive, you must copy all recorded TV files from the "TV enregistrée" folder to the "Recorded TV" folder manually by using Microsoft Windows Explorer. You can do this only after you set the recorded TV storage drive for Media Center Edition 2005 TV settings to the same drive that was used for Media Center Edition 2004.
