Using the Media Center Remote Control
To begin using your remote control:

sensor should be located near your monitor or in a
convenient place. Make sure there is nothing blocking the
path between your remote control and the remote sensor.
2
Press the Start button to start the Media Center and to
open the Media Center main window.
Use the arrow keys on the remote control to select an
item, and then press OK to select an option and begin
using the Media Center.
Watching Television Programs
In My TV you can:
Watch your favorite television programs in full screen
mode or in an inset window.
Pause, stop, rewind, and fast forward live TV, similar to
the way you would control a DVD from a DVD player.
Record a single TV show or an entire series. My TV will
manage the recordings for you and give advanced
warning if there are any recording conflicts.
Create a recorded TV library.
Search for TV shows to watch or record using the
Television Program Guide.
Before you can watch TV using Media Center, make sure your
computer is set up correctly for your TV signal source and that
you have completed the Media Center setup wizard.
