 * Problems with Recorded TV Programmes in Windows Media Centr****e**

When you try to view TV programmes that you have recorded withWindowsMediaCenter, you may find that the gadget used to record content in the Recorded TV folder does not work properly, with a spinning cursor displayed.

When this happens, even rebooting your system will not cure the problem; you will still see the cursor the next time you open the gadget.

Unfortunately, this will also mean that you cannot access the other Media Centre functions to view music and pictures.

If this happens, you need to completely reset the recording schedules as follows:-


 * 1) Close the Media Centre and Media Centre gadget if open.
 * 2) Press [**Windows Key**] + [**R**], type **C:\​ProgramData\​Microsoft\​eHome\​** and click **OK**.
 * 3) Right-click on **mcepg2-0.db** and choose **Rename**. Name the file **mcepg2-0.dbx**.
 * 4) If there are any other files with the db extension, you should rename those to **.dbx** also.
 * 5) Open the Media Centre and reconfigure your recording schedule.
