This configuration included some questions about my geographical location, language, additional software or hardware clients (for streaming media across a network connection), media and recording directories, as well as my TV system (NTSC) and screen geometry (4:3 Aspect Ratio). Actually I'm quite familiar and comfortable with Windows services and still use the SageTV Service Control program.įirst Time Configuration After starting SageTV for the first time I was able to switch to my remote control immediately to complete the initial configuration. If you're not already familiar with the Windows Services console you'll probably prefer to control SageTV services this way. SageTV Service Control Although the SageTV service can be controlled from the standard Windows MMC console, just like the Windows MCE services, a shortcut is provided on the Start Menu to run a special configuration program. I selected the option to run the SageTV as a service, and was presented with the SageTV Service Control application after installation completed. If you try SageTV and prefer to stick with Windows Media Center (and haven't installed WMP 11) you can simply reverse these steps to activate it again. Installation began with shutting down some Windows Media Center related services.
