Jul 15th 2009 10:57AM I'm glad they're dead. The laptop I bought from them in '06 did not last a year and had plenty of troubles during that time. Their support NEVER got back with me on any issue I had.
Stay dead, bitches. You are not wanted here.

WMC-TV brings local news to Memphis, Tennessee in HD {Engadget HD}
Jul 11th 2008 2:09AM Hello, I'm researching a problem with windows media center and tuning WMCtv and WPTY, Memphis and have found the answers for Windows Media Center (MCE) over at thegreenbutton.com. Check it out. I now have WHBQ and am able to view in MCE. The other channels, no go. Here's a link to the fix and an explaination.

Basically, the channel info for WHBQ in MCE is incorrect. The fix is in the link and you will be able to view that channel.
For WMC and WPTY, it is the TV station's fault! We cannot fix it and have to live without those channels in MCE. We will have to contact the channels and give them the link to that blog. Maybe, if they are not busy (or if we can even get ahold of the engineers), they will have time to troubleshoot with one of us to get this corrected.
As it stands, you can watch WHBQ in media center (I use MCE2005). But, we cannot watch WMC or WPTY. Please, let's make an effort to contact these guys.
NBC admits "inadvertent" broadcast flag use, still doesn't explain why it actually worked {Engadget}
May 20th 2008 1:07PM This one is microsoft's, and was a couple years ago, fault. There is no need for them to add this to their software! They should've ditched it back with MCE2005. This is not the first time this has been an issue.
