Restricted Content??

I have Vista Premium, while trying to use the Media Center to watch TV
(Hauppauge DVR150) some of the channells start to play, then I get a
Restricted Content message. These channels play just fine on my TV.

I assume its a DRM setting, how can I go about fixing it so I can watch all
the channels available to me?

System Info:

Pentium 4 HT 3 gig
2.5 gig memory
[Quoted Text]
> 100 gig HDD
ATI X700 Video
Cable thru Comcast Box

Thanks for any help.

That happens when your cable company sets the copy never flag on the
cable stream. See, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CGMS-A, for more on
cgms-a.

If you're just trying to watch TV and not record it, make sure you
have the latest video and tuner drivers. Also you might try this,
