You need to burn programs that were recorded with your
computer to a DVD using Media Center
• Media Center saves recorded programs in the DVR-MS
format. You can burn a DVR-MS file to a DVD with DVD
recording (burning) software and with Media Center
itself.
You want to play recorded programs on other computers
• A DVR-MS file recorded to DVD can be replayed on
another computer running Media Center or on any
computer that has a DVD player and DVD decoder
software (such as WinDVD). The non-Media Center
computer must also have at least Windows XP with
Service Pack (SP) 1 or 2, Windows Media Player 9 or later,
and the Windows patch Q810243 Update.
You get a “Download Error” message when Media Center
