I have a Sony VAIO computer with Windows
XP Media Center software. When I recently
changed from Brighthouse to AT&T Uverse I
had to stop using software to decode the TV
channels and begin using a video box from
AT&T (with the computer tuned to channel 3).
It works fine for most channels, but there are
several channels I cannot view because the
monitor turns blue after a few seconds of
watching that channel.I noticed it primarily happens to premium
channels such as HBO (both standard
definition and high definition), but the system
works for SHO high definition, but not standard
definition. Likewise, I can get high definition
NBC, but not standard definition NBC. I know
it is not the Uverse decoder box because all
channels work when I hook the cable to a
regular TV.I was wondering if the software on the Sony is
inspecting the content and blocking it out
because it thinks it is not legal, because I
cannot view recorded programs or live
broadcasts from these channels. Has anyone
else had this issue? Is there a fix?
