I'm looking forward to buying a XP era WMC Remote, and I was wondering if it would work on Win10 WMC.

Thanks.

I recommend using the one Gyration made. That's a nice beast as it allows also to move the mouse pointer in a similar way the Nintendo Wii Remote can do. The bonus is that it is not infrared but RF for the MCE/Computer control. And additionally it can learn additional IR commands for other devices...

Current storage for the entire PC is a 1TB WD hard drive. I want to get the existing Windows 7 OS onto the new SSD, remove it from the old hard drive completely. The hard drive will continue to store WMC recorded content and a bit of old documents, etc.

I have read some topics here that seem to...

One additional suggestion. I once heard it was the amount of change that would break DRM. You might see if you can add a disk and if DRM does not break, then try cloning the system disk to a SSD. (i.e. perhaps having the additional disk will keep DRM from seeing as big a delta when changing the...

Sad to read that Logitech has made the decision to discontinue designing and manufacturing Harmony remotes. :cry:

They say they will continue to maintain the Harmony database and software.

I got 2 issues:

I use the epg collector and it starts at 5:00 am and it runs every days, it works fine.

The last couple of days when i start to watch live tv...

Last post

I think i already did that but afterwards i did not get the guide, i only have recordings and live tv.
If you deny the Program Guide ToS, you will need to manually set some registry values for the Guide option to appear.

Hi fellow WMC enthusiasts! :D

I live in Australia where EPG123 can't be of service due to the unavailability of SchedulesDirect guide data, leaving me at either the mercy of IceTV or the OTA EPG. While WMC can pull in guide information from the DVB-T signal over the air, the experience is...

Last post

Yah, I took a peek last week at where you were and noticed you went to the source. I didn't look at the radio stuff... is that where your programs without IDs are coming from?

Weird about the matchName. I do know that if the name matches the callsign of the channel, it should work, but I'm...

I set up the latest version yesterday, the guide was working OK and I had a green desktop EPG123 icon.

A schedules guide update was carried out this morning at 2am, and I have now found that the desktop icon is amber instead.

I have checked the log and can see warnings about a number of series...

Hi I sometimes like to watch recorded tv on double speed. Yesterday I installed shark 007 advanced codec and now have lost sound when playing recorded tv on double speed. I uninstalled shark and then could not play anything back. WMC was saying codec error, forcing me to reinstall shark 007.
How...

Last post

Thanks for all your suggestions. Space the link to shark settings helped. I unchecked suggested settings and audio came back. I feel silly I didn't try that first. Thanks again!

I personally use the Harmony 350 (when it was the 300 or it later changed to the 350i - something like that) at 4 TVs ever since using WMC - and it was discontinued years ago by Logitech, so I bought a bunch when announced that model will be no more. Was gonna go to Harmony Hub and remotes after...

The MiBox s showed up yesterday a little late but that's on USPS as it was shipped the same day I paid for it which is amazing! Plugged it in and set it up. It works great, like new!

Thank you for a smooth and easy transaction!

Good, glad to hear. 👍

As per title, I am getting error 246000 in iView when going there via the iView extra installed with MCEWebView.

It tells me I have an unsupported browser although I have Edge as default. Also I cannot see any video when playing content in iView.

Is this a known issue? Can I specify another...

Ok, will do. From what i see, only an address is given so I expect the default browser will be used - but who knows...
