    Are these movies you recorded? Are you able to watch them on your computer? What happens when you try to play them?

    they are just movies that are on tv when im trying to wacth them like if i went to HBO on my tv I could watch them so they are not recorded and regular cable channels work fine but when I click on a movie to watch it it says CANNOT PLAY PROGRAM This channel may not be supported if you cannot tune to any other channel restart media center and/or your computer.

    Do some research but I believe that HBO and other movie channels have setup preventitive measures on this.
