MCE Kit for use with Media Center
The WinTV-HVR for Media Center boards differ from the non-MCE version in that it
uses the Microsoft Media Center USB Remote control and IR transmitter
instead of the WinTV-HVR's built-in IR receiver transmitter.
The WinTV-HVR MCE-Kit will work with Microsoft's Media Center application in Vista
Home Premium or Ultimate.
If you have Windows Vista Home Basic, you can still use the WinTV-HVR to watch
and record TV, but you will use Hauppauge's WinTV application instead of Microsoft's
Media Center application. See the WinTV-HVR-1600 Quick Installation Guide for
instructions on installing and using the WinTV application. Note: The Media Center
remote control has limited functionality with Hauppauge's WinTV application.
