I recently went from cable to satellite (dish network) and I cannot get my
media center remote to change the channels. The small picture comes up and
the sound is good but when I punch in a new channel it does not change the
channel. I have tried everything I could think of.

The best place to ask Media Center specific questions is the
"officially blessed by MS" Green Button website :

Like here, it's still peer (user to user) support but there are many
knowledgeable users who will have had exactly the problem you have and
can ask the right questions to help you fix it in the Forums :

To assist them and speed up the solution, it would be worth stating
briefly but accurately the PC hardware and windows version (e.g. media
center 2005, Vista MCE, Windows 7) and TV decoder card type, as well
as anything about your sat network name you think might be unusual.
