I know I am late to the party but I set this up the other night and it is mostly working. However I am not sure about a few bits. I didn't turn on any meta data functions as I do not intend to use MMC for movies, just for remote access for managing recordings.
When using the iOS app I find:

Last post
From looking at other screenshots, I don't think Scheduled Recordings or Recorded TV are meant to have images. So that is fine.
However the iOS app crashing/closing in Series Gallery is clearly not right. But I guess I just have to live with that.

I recently bought my media center for my android phone and installed the appropriate software on my windows 8.1 PC. I was having trouble getting all of my movies to show up on the android app. I read in another post that this can be caused by the name of the folder the movie is in. I changed the...

My Media Center uses Yammm to search tmdb.org for the movie title. The name of the folder needs to closely match the movie title as much as possible so Yammm can find the movie.
If the folders still do not get renamed then you can manually append the movie identification number from tmdb.org to...

I did think about port forwarding but didn't think this worked with magic packets for WOL. That being said its not ideal as I prefer everything external to use the VPN.

I have dug through every page on this app and I still haven't found a way to accomplish this?
If this something that can be done via the app? I know you can do a manual recording on the computer in WMC directly
Any help is greatly appreciated
thank you

I think the title of this post needs to be changed to Extended Recording from MMC app.
I guess the questions that Bill wants an answer to are.....
How do I adjust the extended recording options of WMC, from within MMC?
and.....
Is it possible to extend a recording more than 3 hours?

I am currently a Remote Potato user but I would love to switch to MMC if it could offer music streaming, picture access, etc. These are mentioned in the FAQ but that hasn't been updated for a few years. Are these being worked on or is the app now feature complete ?

Thanks, that is a very generous offer. I think you it sold to me already. It sounds like it should tick all my boxes, especially once the new iOS app is released.
Rather than hassle you any more I'll install in a VM to so I can testout installing the WMCServer component.

Hello Ceton,

Please don't remove the sidebar mode, I think it is very useful (for the scenario I outlined above, slingbox + iPad). Please don't kill it, but fix it instead.
