PE5 add-in for Vista Media Center

I upgraded from PE$ -> 5 a while ago and noticed that I lost the media center icon for photoshop elements.
How do I get this to work with PE5? I see the Digital Home files and have done a uninstall and re-install of the app already..
Thanks

PSE 5 does work under Vista Home Premium.
What is the media center icon?

Are there any other internet/online channels for Vista media center?

Hi,
I was just wondering if there are any other internet/online channels I can get for Vista Media Center?
I only have about 9 at the moment, and would like preferby free ones. I don't have satelite or cable tv so would like online ones, is there anywhere that I can get sky one without a satellite dish as prison breaks on soon.
Enjoy your weekend.
Ian

I dont think you will be able to find a free Sky One channel in the internet.
But Im not expert and this is only my personal opinion.
If you dont have a satellite or cable TV you could buy a DVB-T TV tuner and maybe then you will be able to receive more TV channels using MCE ;)

Vista Media Center plug-in for Photoshop Elements

So what is the scoop for Vista Media Center plugin? Is it still supported? Will it make it to Photoshop Elements 8?
Any help or guidance will be greatly appreciated.

I just started Media Center on my Vista 32 system, and the PSE 8 plugin was present and could open both my catalogs (though sluggishly). Beware that someone else reported they couldn't get the plugin to work (with PSE 7, I think) and that Adobe customer support said it was no longer supported. You can't trust what customer support every says (but they don't usually help you in any case).

Elements 7 on Vista Media Center

Hi,
I am running Photoshop Elements 7 on Vista Media Center and am unable to get the Media Center add-in to work properly.
If I open the Elements catalog from photoshop it displays all the thumbnails correctly (some are stored on a local hard drive and some are on a network drive).
In the Media Center plugin it only displays thumbnails of images located on the local hard drive. No thumbnails of any images on the network drives are displayed.
This cannot be a permissions issue since Photoshop Elements Organiser can access all of the images on the network drives and so can Media Center's photo viewer.
Is Photoshop Elements not capable of accessing images stored on a network drive?
thanks,
warren.

To rule out obscure problems with permissions, I suggest setting the permissions of the catalog folder and its contents and your picture folders and their contents to Allow Full Control for Everyone.
Also, see this section from the PSE 7 Readme:
HOME NETWORKING TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM: Photos and videos appear as black thumbnails on Media Center Edition (MCE) Extenders.
ANSWER 1: This problem occurs when the Photoshop Elements Digital Home feature does not have permission to view the files in your user account. To learn more about security and permission issues with MCE Extenders, check the documentation that came with your device. To fix this problem, if your photos and videos are stored in your My Documents folder, you can use the Media Center Extender Manager to grant access to your My Documents folder to the MCE Extender
Launch the Media Center Extender Manager by going to Start > Accessories >Media Center >Media Center Extender Manager
Choose File > Settings. This will launch the Media Center Extender Setup program, showing you the Content Settings page.
Make sure the Make all My Documents Folders Available setting is checked. Continue to the end of the setup program by clicking Next at each page.
Click Finish when the last page loads. After running these steps, your photos and videos should display on your MCE extender.
ANSWER 2: Shared folders: An alternative resolution is to make the folder(s) your photos and videos are in, as shared folders on your machine. This will allow access to those photos on remote devices, including MCE Extenders. IMPORTANT: this will also allow access to your photos and videos from other computers on your network. Make sure you understand the security risks of shared folders before using this option.

Vista Media Center x64 Embedded Flash

Hi All
I was wondering if anybody knows any way to make Vista media
center 64 bit edition work with Flash. It will not work when
playing videos or with embeded media center plugins.
When playing video it says that the codecs are not installed,
but it will play if i use media player.
When trying to use the embedded plugins it can either crash
or loop back round instantly as if it has played the file.
Thanks for any help in advanced.

Digi@nywhere A/D Plus, Vista Media Center, Analog cable

How do I configure Vista Media Center to use the analog part of my digi@nywhere tuner card? It will only "see" the input source as: digital antenna. And, since I don't have an antenna connected, all signal strengths are at zero. Besides, the configuration seems to think I only have 16 channels availabnle to me, when in reality I have 30+. THinking this might not be a problem with the tuner card, I borrowed a hauppauge card from a friend. One that also had an analog tuner. Media Center worked just fine with that card. The included ArdSoft TotalMedia software also works fine, but I'd really prefer to use Media Center rather than the TotalMedia.
Thanks,
Dennis

Hi,
You probably need to format the new HDD - try the following.
If you're running Windows XP, see the guide on the following link.
http://www.simplyguides.net/guides/prepare_second_hdd/prepare_second_hdd1.shtml
For Windows Vista, Windows 7 or Windows 8, continue as follows.
Hold down the Windows Key and press R. Into the Run Box type compmgmt.msc and hit enter. Click Disk Management in the left pane and let the drives load up. Right click on your new HDD and select Format to start the Wizard. Windows will assign a Volume Label so if you’re happy with this, just leave the default one. File system is normally NTFS. Allocation Unit Size should be left as the default value. Select the option to perform a Quick Format if it is not already selected. Leave any other settings as default and click Ok and Ok again to start the process.
When this has completed, your new HDD should now appear when you look under Computer.

DP-K

Cheap graphics card for a media center PC

so i traded some hardware teh other day, and got an asus m2n68 board that i started building a media center pc with. now my idea was to use xbmc and mythtv. now as it turns out, mythtv is a little more involved to setup than i expected, i haven't even managed to get my tv tuner working yet, so thats one issue
the other thing, the main thing anyhow, is it turns out the xbmc performance is terrible with the nouveau driver, so i'm thinking about getting a cheap radeon 4350 since as far as i know, they'll do audio over hdmi so i can run a single cable from the box to my tv. my question here now is if anyone has any experience with the radeonhd drivers and these cards, even maybe with xbmc? i just don't want to go out and spend the money to find out it doesn't work any better than what i had performance wise. really just want to know if the radeonhd drivers are working 100% with the 4350 or not

yes, absolutely, for standard playback, the integrated chipset was good. the problem was XBMC doesn't seem to work well with the nouveau driver, even trying to browse menu's was super choppy, took like 10-20 seconds everytime you press down in a menu for example to see the selection change. i could have used nvidia's binary driver, but i've been using nouveau for so long now, and it actually makes my system feel like it has a quad core which the nvidia didn't at the time, maybe nvidia's drivers have improved since then? but at the same time, i'm glad i got the radeon, the XBMC performance is great, and the HDMI hookup for the tv is convienient as well. Also using the vga input on my TV, i kept having to adjust the screen position because its constant autoscan everytime the resolution changed did not get it right, with the hdmi its lined up perfect without having to mess with it. so i think the 50$ for the card and an hdmi cable was worth it

Can mac mini be used like a NAS for a media center?

Hi everyone,
i'm new to macs and am considering purchasing my first one. i am setting up an audio system with a digital media player/reciever (Linn Majik DSM) and i was recommended to use a NAS for storing music files. I got the suggestion to use a mac mini instead (small form factor, low energy use and also get a 'full computer'). Does anyone know if a mac mini (or mini server) can be used like a NAS to house music files. also, would this play nicely with other computers on the network (windows7). thanks in advance.

I've been using a mini primarily as a media server in my family room for 5 or 6 years. It is connected directly via HDMI to my receiver which is connected via HDMI to a TV.
For music, you can control iTunes with an iPad/iPhone using the built-in OS-X iTunes remote server, works fine. For video, the mini really doesn't cut it even when connected to an HDTV. (at least the late 2011 with video card doesn't). The video quality is OK, but not as good as a BR player.
I use my Bluray player as a UPnP device and haven't found a Mac server that gives fully customizable UPnP menus. However, the Mezzmo server (windows only) does, which adds a bit of complexity but is worth it to me.
My Mac does not show up as a UPnP device, you will need a server of some kind.

New patch for MSI Media Center Deluxe II

all-
forgive if this has been posted before, but there is a new patch for the MCD II. it upgrades it revision 3. i will try it out tonight when i get back from my LSAT class.
http://www.msi.com.tw/program/support/driver/dvr/spt_dvr_detail.php?UID=447%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20%20&NAME=MS-8912
i wish MSI would make it easier to find or notify somewhere on the website about these patches. also it would be nice to read what exactly these patches fix.
currently the only issues i have with MCD II is the slideshow doesn't work for My Pictures, and you can't stop a video file in the middle and switch to another entity- say TV, DVD, or even music without have the sound in the video file continue onwards.
not sure if i should uninstall current patch to install 2nd patch, but will try all combinations to see which one works.

what a waste of 18 MB. the update did not fix anything at all. the slideshow bug is still there, as is the video file sounds.
i did a clean uninstall of the previous version, and installed from the CD, then applied the patch. no difference.
did a clean install from CD, applied patch 1, then applied patch 2. no difference.
worse of all, the program, when exited, does not switch the monitor refresh rate back to what it was before. (this was fixed from the previous patch).
but i won't discourage those who had issues with the first patch not to use the second patch- maybe it will fix mcd2 for them. for i had no real problems with the 1st patch.

WRT610N disconnects and does not work with Vista or media center extenders like the DMA2200

Linksys and all other router manufacturers advertise the greatness of the wireless 5ghz band (especially with 802.11n), but I’m beginning to have my doubts. It is true that the 5Ghz band is hardly being used so you'll have virtually no one to compete with. However, the 5Ghz distance in no way compares to 2.4Ghz, and as a matter of fact, I find it to be quite terrible. At approximately 20 feet away, both my Linksys DMA2200 and HP notebook barely get 1 bar using the 5Ghz N band with my WRT610N router. In comparison, while using my 2.4Ghz WRT54g router, I get 5 full bars at that range, and at least 2 bars from anywhere else in my house.
I have all Linksys equipment in my house as I have been impressed with all of their 2.4Ghz in the past. However, I’ve recently upgraded everything to dual-band N equipment and found numerous flaws in each of the new devices, plus none of them really even play well together. My setup is: Linksys 610n router, DMA2200 media center extender, and a WUSB600N Dual-Band Wireless-N USB Network Adapter for my laptop – all of which are currently using the most up-to-date firmware. Other devices include a WRE54G extender and Nintendo Wii.
Problem #1) The LELA software with the new N devices doesn't even recognize that my DMA2200 is a media center extender. Using LELA, I should be able to select my media extender and allocate more bandwidth for streaming media. However, since my extender only shows up as an “unknown network device” those options are greyed out. I tried to manually change the device to a media center, but still no go. I suppose you can manually allocate bandwidth in the router setup somewhere, but considering these are all Linksys products, it’s absolutely ridiculous that an option specifically incorporated in the LELA software for a Linksys Media Extender does not work!!!
Problem #2) If you are only using one system with the router, the router might actually work as intended. For most of us though there are going to be at least 2 or more systems connected to the router (wired, wireless, or a combination of the two) such as a PS3, Wii, laptop, PC, media extender, Xbox, etc. If that’s the case, you’re probably screwed because you WILL experience frequent dropouts… ESPECIALLY if just one those clients is a VISTA machine. Check the Linksys forums and you will find that this seems to be a problem with all of the new Linksys routers (610N, 310N, and 110).
Here is a Microsoft article that explains the issue
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928233/en-us
Problem #3) Because of problem #2 I will never be able to get rid of the dropouts since my network is using one of Linksys’s media center extenders. The DMA2200 is essentially a VISTA PC to some extent and accepts DHCP requests the same as a VISTA PC. Since it is not really a PC though, there is no registry modification that can be done to alleviate the VISTA problem (not that the registry mod really works anyways). So as long as I try to use my DMA2200 wirelessly with my WRT610N router, the frequent dropouts will occur and there’s nothing I can do about it. This is REALLY TERRIBLE since the DMA2200 is specifically designed to be used with the WRT610N router in order to take advantage of the 5Ghz band and wireless N transfer rates. You absolutely need 5Ghz wireless N to efficiently stream HDTV WIRELESSLY, but if you lose your connection every 10 minutes, it is impossible to watch any type of streaming media.
Problem #4) As mentioned already, when the “N” 5Ghz range is working on the WRT510N router, the distance sucks compared to standard 2.4Ghz G, N or mixed mode networks. You can try to make it better by strictly using N products, disabling the 2.4ghz band all-to-gether, and using the wider 40mhz frequency, but it doesn’t really help. The higher 5Ghz band is a more concentrated signal and therefore simply does not reach as far as the lower 2.4ghz band. I wonder why all of these new products state that the 5Ghz range will increase your distance, when in fact it actually makes it worse?
So… basically, this router does nothing that it claims too and is basically rendered useless on any network with a VISTA machine. This has not been addressed by any Linksys firmware updates or VISTA software updates so there is no reason to even consider using this router if you you’re using VISTA or some type of VISTA Media Center Extender such as the Linksys DMA2200.
Although, I’ve always sworn by Linksys in the past, the amount of wasted time, frustration, and horrible support has really changed my view about them. I’ve reverted back to my old trustworthy WRT54g router and had to run cable through my house so that I wouldn’t have to box my DMA2200 extender up and let it collect dust in the attic. It’s really disappointing that I spent all this money to buy this equipment specifically because they’re supposed to work together, but in fact they don’t. Plus what’s the point of having top notch wireless equipment if you have to run cables in order for them to work?

I have fixed all the IP adresses to avoid the DHCP problem but I still have problems.
I have sereval scenarioes:
1. MC < 1Gb wire > WRT610N < 5.0n WIFI > MX
I can see HDTV on this one but it disconnects
2. MC < 1Gb wire > WRT610N < 2.4b/g WIFI > MX
No HDTV and disconnections
3. MC < 2.4b/g WIFI > WRT610N < 2.4b/g WIFI > MX
No HDTV but no disconnections - but very slow and streaming like youtube
4. MC < 100Mb wire > WRT610N < 2.4b/g WIFI > MX
No HDTV but nice picture - testing for disconnections right now - 30+ min.
Result:
This test was very good. Stabil streaming, no disconnects for an hour. Won't support HDTV but the rest seem to work fine.
5. MC < 100Mb wire > WRT610N < 5.0n WIFI > MX
Not tested yet - looking forward to this - might bring me HDTV.
Result:
This gives HDTV but there is a problem with stability on the streaming but very difficult to see on the picture. Testing for disconnects - now tested for 30 min. - no disconnects.
This looks really promissing.
I am pretty sure that the WRT610N have a problem in the switching part of the router specially when it has to switch from 1G to WIFI. I bought the WRT610N to get HDTV on WIFI and Cisco markets the DMA and WRT610N as a perfect match. But it definately have problems - i still do not understand their silence about this.
I will come back with the last results when I have them

[request] Jriver Media Center 19 for linux

It would be very nice a package for Jriver Media Center 19 for linux.
Reference here:
http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?board=35.0
I have installed manually in my system. It's a 32 bit package and it needs lib32-curl 7.23.1 (not the last one in repository).
You can see my discussion here:
http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=84651.0
Luckly requirement for libcrypto++ and libboost-regex has been dropped!
I remember that this Media Center is one of the best ever made. The version for linux is Audio only, but can play also DSD bitstream.
