Title: TV Audio Not Working With Media Center 14
Post by: banjomarcus on December 27, 2009, 06:35:05 pm

I'm new to the forum since I just signed up today.  I have a HP Expresscard Digital/Analog TV Tuner.  However, when I try to watch TV in Media Center 14 I can see the picture but I get no audio.  However, when I watch the TV on Quick Play it works just fine.  Can someone please help me with this problem?  I would like to have the option of watching TV with the Media Center 14.  I have a laptop computer with the Vista Operating System on it.  Thanks!

Welcome to the forum.

If you're watching over-the-air ATSC and want analog audio (i.e. laptop speakers), you may need to install a decoder for the AC3 audio.  Google for CCCP.

After that, Media Center will probably use the decoder automatically.  If not, you might have to tell it what decoder to use in television options.

Let us know how you fare.

Thanks.
