Installing the WinTV-PVR-150/500 Kit

for Media Center Edition

The WinTV-PVR for Media Center boards differ from the non-MCE WinTV-PVR ver­sions in that they use the Microsoft Media Center USB Remote control and IR

transmitter instead of the WinTV-PVR’s built-in IR receiver transmitter.

Installation overview

Step 1. Install the WinTV-PVR in your PC and connect the TV and A/V cables.

Step 2. After starting WindowsXP, install the WinTV-PVR device driver from

the WinTV MCE Driver Installation CD-ROM.

Step 3. Install the Media Center remote control.

Detailed installation instructions

Step 1: Install the WinTV-PVR-150/500 board in your Media Center
PC and connect the cables

Turn the power off on your PC. Install the WinTV-PVR into a PCI slot. On

some PC’s, the WinTV-PVR needs to be plugged into the first or second PCI slot.
Plug your TV antenna or cable TV cable into the TV Connector.

Audio and video from an external A/V device (satellite TV receiver, cable TV box,
VCR, camcorder, camera, DVD player) can be brought into the WinTV-PVR via the
back panel connectors. If your A/V device uses S-Video, connect to the S-Video
input on the WinTV-PVR-150/500MCE. If your video device uses composite video
instead of S-Video, use the yellow RCA jack.
