RE: No UK Feeds in Media Centre following Vista Ulitmate Upgrade

Same problem here. When I format the harddisk and install vista ultimate
brand new with Switzerland settings, I get Swiss TV as the online feeds. But
after a few days it changes to Germany feeds and I have found no solutions to
set it back.

Hi There,

Been reading your feed problems. I've just installed Vista Ultimate and got
the exact same problem!! American feeds all the time!

I've managed to get around it now by installing the correct feed from the
related website. i.e. for bbc news feeds you need to go to:

http://newsrss.bbc.co.uk/rss/newsonl...ion/uk/rss.xml

and hit "Subscribe to this feed" There are loads there to choose from but
this one is the BBC News UK one. Once you've done so you'll see it's appeared
under the options when you right click the feed gadget. Select it and the
feed will appear.

Hope this helps

Jim

He's not talking about RSS feeds Jimbo, but Online Content within Media
Center (sic)

I had EXACTLY the same issue XP/MCE 2005 worked fine, but upgrading to Vista
premium has given me US content that I can't view because I'm not there.

Irritatingly my laptop with a new install of Vista Premium works fine and I
see the (limited) UK content!

I've searched high and low for a solution to this problem that Landshark
(correctly BTW, Buellpilot you need to READ the message and not be so
pedantic!) highlighted, but no-one seems to care

It's another of those irritating "US-English" problems; "hey it's in
English, what more do ya want?"
