I have windows 8 media center, I installed Remote Potato and now live tv is not working. I uninstalled remote potato and live tv is still not working. If I tell WMC to record the channel it will record and play in the recordings tab with no issue. When I select live tv I get a blank screen of the WMC background. The play/pause button shows the play symbol and when I click it, it shows the pause symbol for a split second and goes back to the play symbol, never changing from the blank WMC blue backround.
I have a Hauppauge WinTV-HVR-2250 and I installed the WinTV software. Live TV works in the WinTV software. So this seems to be a WMC issue.
I then installed the XBMC backend and frontend, live TV will even work there but not in WMC

I would start by re-running the TV Signal setup wizard. Although this will reset any guide tweaks and scheduled recordings.
Do you have a system image (prior to installing Remote Potato) that you could restore?

You can repair the system files. Open a command prompt as administrator and run:
sfc /scannow
