I have Vista Ultimate, and have a TV tuner card. It works fine with my coax line for TV. However i also have S-Video and Composite inputs, but i cannot figure out how to get VMCE to change to those different inputs.

wallaceb, my Mom has a TV Tuner for her laptop and it's not easy to get to the Line In. I guess if you had an instruction manual that covered this, you wouldn't be asking here. One thing that you can try is to channel down past 1 because some tuners use the Channel 0 space for Line In. If that's not it, then you need to go into the TV setup in Media Center and change the settings. On my Mom's laptop, I had to "lie" to it and say I had a Satellite box connected to the line in connector. That was on XP MCE, so I can't tell you where these settings are in Vista. Let us know if you figure it out.
