Phillips tv will not work with any remote control?
My phillips tv 27″ 5 years old is very sticky with any remote. It started with my dish remote. The volume and channels will not change with out pressing really hard and sometimes waiting for quite a few seconds. I programmed a universal, and same problem. So I am assuming its the TV. The Dish guide and channel changing was fine. Just TV direct control. Would love to fix, any suggestions?
Nagesh answers:
If it works at all, then there’s a signal getting to the TV. Try using a duster around the bottom. Maybe the detector is being blocked by something. Try pointing it to different locations instead.

How do I use my pc Windows Media Center as TV2 to watch Dish network?
I have a Dish network DVR 625 which I want to connect to my Windows Media Center. I have a TV in the living room connected to TV channel 3-4 out port on the receiver and this works properly. To watch TV on my pc elsewhere, I ran a coaxial cable from the channel 21-69 port at the back of the 625 receiver to the TV-in port on my PC tuner card, using an attenuator between the cable and the TV-in port on the TV as directed in the receiver user guide. I then ran both automatic and manual scans on Windows Media Center but have been unable to get TV signals. What am i doing wrong? Please HELP !
Nagesh answers:
I did this also. Windows Media Center’s TV tuner will not recognize the channels that TV 2 come in on (mine is 73). Only channels channels 2-4. You could “capture” video using MovieMaker and tuning to channel 73, or you could do what I did, which was run TV 1 to the PC with a coaxial going from “TV 1 Out.” I have my TV 1 hooked up to the TV using RCA cables, so I’m not using the TV 1 Out jack for the TV. I was originally going to split my TV 2 cable, which goes to a TV right NEXT to the PC, but came across the channel issue which prevented watching “Live” TV and getting the program guides, etc.
Sharon asks…
How do I record shows with direct tv?
Or can I record it on the tv or do I have to use a vcr?
Nagesh answers:
If you have a Direct TV DVR:
Its easy
1.go to the tv guide.
2. Pick the show you want to record.
3. Push the record button on the remote.
If you do not have a DVR you need a VCR.
YOu must program the VCR to record the channel your TV is set to. Usually channel 3 or 4.
Then program the day and times of the recording.
Then leave your Direct TV box on and tuned to the correct channel.

James asks…
What channel will the Much Music Awards be on in the US?
I’ve heard people say it’s only on in Canada, but I don’t think it’s true because why wouldn’t they show it here? So if you know please tell me. I have Direct TV by the way 🙂
Nagesh answers:
I know i want to see them too!
I guess only people in Canada
can watch it tonight, but people
in the U.S. Can watch it on June
27th at 8pm. I know, it sucks ):
And I still don’t know what
channel it’s on. I’m just going to
look at the online TV Guide for
it. I hope I helped you out! (:
