Introduction:

 Even if your computer doesn’t have a TV tuner
  card, you can still watch broadcast television
  programming with Media Center in Windows 7.
  Today we take a look at some of the features and
  how to get started.
 Earlier this week in another Learning Windows 7
  post, we showed you how to set up live TV in
  Windows Media Center (WMC). Not everyone has a
  TV tuner card and maybe can’t install one…in a
  laptop or netbook for example.
 Update: This feature may not be available in all
  countries. Users who are in the UK should be able
  to use Sky Player which integrates into WMC. If
  you’re in the US and don’t see this option, make
  sure you have all of the latest updates for WMC.
Internet TV
   Open up WMC and scroll down to TV
    then over to Internet TV.
• In the next screen, check that you accept the Terms of
                Service and click on Install.
• The installation process begins…
• Now you can begin browsing through the available
    programming, which varies from classics to the
  latest editions of your favorite news, Showtime and
                       CBS shows.
 Browse through Golden Globe winning shows and
    also Netflix (which requires a subscription).
 Get the latest news and current events type
programming such as 60 minutes and nightly news
                   broadcasts.
 CBS Classic is always a lot of fun too for checking out the old
                        school shows.
 Click on an episode to find out what it is about
  and its length…
 If it’s your first time watching a show you may
 need to install the latest version of Adobe Flash.
 Now you can sit back and watch some of your
            favorite programming.
• If you’re a fan of Desktop Gadgets, you can use the
   WMC one to scroll through shows from the gadget
                and launch them in WMC.
Conclusion:
    If you’re looking to watch TV on your computer, this is yet another way of
    quite a few methods, including several online options such as Hulu. This
    method is quick to setup and allows you to watch some limited programming
    on demand with WMC in Windows 7. Not all programs are full episodes, but
    does include clips from several of them. In the future we’ll be taking a look at
    some other types of Internet TV and video streaming options you can
    incorporate into WMC.
