Richard Miller MCE MVP
I followed all of the instructions above
My current setup is as follows:
Windows Vista Ultimate running Windows Media Center
XBOX 360
Windows Home Server
I want to be able to record TV shows using my Vista Machine and then copy the files to the Home Server. I want to then be able to watch the shows uing my xbox 360 connected to the Vista machine as an extender
I can see and play the files files I have saved to the Home Server using the Vista Machine, However When I try to watch them using my XBOX 360 as an extender connected to the Vista machine I get the following error;
Video Error
Files need to display video are not installed or not working corretly. Please restart windows media center or restart computer
Richard Miller:Ok give me about three weeks to setup another MCE PC, I will see if I can fix the recording refresh to multiple MCE problem.

I have followed the guide and cant get it to work.
I have vista ultimate.
When I try to record I get 'low disk space' error.
Alex - what did you do to resolve the low disk error?
Coma.

Did you change the Quota? You need to change this to what size your hdd is.
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Media Center\Service\Recording]"Quota"="300000000000"
300000000000 = 300gb
Alex - my quota was already 320Gb - I tried increasing to 600Gb - i still get the error.
Thanks anyway
Richard,
I have 400gb free on whs. I have moved over about 10gb of recordings and cannot see them via mce.
In case this affects anything > I named my whs 'Homeserver' and have used this name in the setup. Also currently have Windows Live Onecare for virus and firewall etc
Maybe you need to configure some setting in Live Onecare?
I use nod32 antivirus and I had to exclude network in the Amon media to resolve this error.
Alex,
I cant find any other options in onecare - and i tried connecting with firewall disabled with same result.
I'm almost out of suggestions. The only thing you can try is deinstall Live Onecare and see what happens.
I'm using windows firewall and nod32 with no problems.
Ian,
You do record to WHS with Vista right?
Don't you have this problem, http://thedigitallifestyle.com/cs/forums/thread/2811.aspx
Or is your MCE machine on 24/7
Maybe you can test it so I don't feel all alone anymore
