I guess the questions that Bill wants an answer to are.....

I started to consider getting my gf to install the app on her phone so we could test w/ that 4G connection.
Then I started to think paying twice for an app I can't get to work might be kind of silly.

OK, so I haven't used 'My Media Center' for android for some time. I tried starting it the other day and it crashes after the splash screen. I'm running one of the latest CM11 (kitkat 4.4) nightlies (5/20/2014) and all partitions are formatted to F2FS. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the...

I'm experiencing the exact same issue with the latest oem software for my Verizon Moto X, which I believe uses f2fs as the filesystem for the data partition as well. Either way, this is a problem and needs to be remedied, but I don't think we'll see any action from Ceton though as they have gone...

Yes. I set both the local and remote addresses to point to my dynamic DNS host name. I use no-ip.org. Then just forward the external port to your PC. The external port doesn't necessarily have to be the same as the port number you've configured in the My Media Center service on the PC.

Help needed with Port Forwarding

Rhenusen » Fri Jan 10, 2014 4:31 pm
First post
I have been trying to do port forwarding on the SBG6500 router but when I go into the forwarding tab all it has is a button that says Create IPv4. I really need help with this it would be much appreciated.
Last post
It's possibly asking for the internal IP you are forwarding to/from.

The My MC app suddenly limited my channels in the guide but everything is working normally in Media Center. The guide now stops at channel 151 and won't go any higher. Does anyone have a solution for this problem? Thanks.

Just a heads up, since ART is still beta, but My Media Center crashes if you try to run on it.

That is correct, ART itself causes the issue: is the bug, which has already been fixed and is awaiting release. ART itself is only nexus 5 currently as well and is only encouraged by google themselves for developers really.

Change the Remote buttons for "Movies" and "Recorded TV"

gilhamj » Sun Sep 22, 2013 5:15 am
First post
Hi, I would like to change the remote (channel up, down, numbers, etc.) for 2 buttons. Specifically for the Movies and Recorded TV buttons, I would like it to launch WMC addins Media Browser and Recorded TV HD respectively.
How could I accomplish this with the My Media Center remote?
Last post
So I hijack the remote control buttons for TV and Movies using any MediaCenter RF or IR remote. However, I can't override your program functions as I assume they are direct.
In a future version, can you perhaps add and if/then on those buttons for a registry override. Thanks!

Will you ever support ripped TV in the My Media Center App? It would be awesome to play my ripped TV shows like the Sopranos or Firefly.
I use Metadata from MediaBrowser, so Yamm isn't needed for support if you can read that standard metadata (or NFO for XBMC).

No problem. That is the usual issue. If you see a password wrong popup that means that it could find the server but either the password was wrong or there was another reason such as time/date.

I think he's saying his movies show up properly in the Win 8 MMC app as well as WMC itself; and it's just on his phone it won't display on the MMC app. Is this correct OP? If so, what mobile OS is it? Also, try to clear cache and run initial setup again, there's options in the app to do both.

Hi Ceton team!
I think I may have found a lot of issues, but only regarding my setting: DVBlogic's TV Source.
First off, since our guide here doesn't have any Images/posters, I use EPGCollector to collect data with images, and pass it on to DVBlogic to inject it inside Windows Media Center. The...

Hey Motz, thanks for the update.
As many people are still using 3rd party guides with images downloaded on their Hard Drives instead of being pulled from the web as is the normal guide, is it possible to allow the MyMediaCenter apps to look on the server for the images? I'm no coder, but I can't...

Wake on lan works great on IOS when I am attached to the local network via WIFI. When I attempt to VPN into the same network, and then try to use the WOL the request fails. This was discussed earlier in a previous message and it may of been due to the way the port is opened up on the application...
Last post
Under normal circumstances, WoL works by broadcasting a request over the whole LAN, such that the sleeping device can recognize a call directed at it. Broadcasts can only be initiated by a device on the actual LAN itself. In some circumstances, a router can be configured to trigger such a broadcast...

Hi Ya,
So in exploring the My Media Center app I noticed that when I'm in the guide, and click on a channel number (not a show) I see a little star icon in the corner. I would assume this is a favorite button of some sort? So I'm wondering if there is some way to filter the guide based on...

I just added the Companion app to an iPAD2. I compared the settings to my WP8 and Windows8 laptops that work and they are the same.
However when I try to connect with the iPAD I get
Unable to Connect
The iPad is also on the network.
Any ideas?

try to add the PC manually in there and try to enter the password again on it. That seems very odd, I use a password with mine.
Do you have remote access setup so you can access outside the house if so I can try it on mine if you would like to double check. just PM me.

First post
Are there instructions to use My Media Center to control the echo?
I did a PC scan and MMC only discovered my HTPC and not my echo.
Did I miss something or is echo control not possible with MMC?
Last post
Okay. I saw that before in the Companion App but my echo has been unplugged for a while. I'll check again.

I'm playing with the Companion tonight on my iPad and the program guide is blank. It momentarily shows a loading next to each channel and then .... nothing. Just channel numbers and blackness. I just tried it on my iPhone and same thing. Anyone can help please?

Hi,
It would be nice to have more than just 15 minutes to install this app. If there's any trouble at all, you're going to take more than 15 minutes.

Yes it helps. I guess this sort of thing happens whenever a new system gets set up, especially when it's got so many different big companies involved.
