Is there a way to change the audio stream that is being used by the Xbox WMC extender? For some reason I am only getting Dolby Digital 2.0 on Fox and not 5.1 and all the voices sound muffled. I get 5.1 on other channels such as CBS.

I have a strange issue with a DMA2100 I found free it's got a strange quirk with the volume being to low when I use my Xbox 360 or a direct connection to the W7 machine I can set my tv volume to say 20 but with the DMA2100 I have to turn it up to 45 to get the same level of Audio with the same...

What is the cheapest fully functional extender for playing copy protected WTV TV files out of my Win 7 Pro PC? I just need a tool to use until I clear (watch) all the copy protected files off of my old WMC PC. All attempts to move my drives into my new $1500 PC, and all attempts to play (share) the...

3 of my 4 extenders are no longer using the settings and media folders of my main login that the other extenders are (initially thought it was just one, turns out there is only one still using the normal profile).

They connect, can play live/recorded TV, etc. but every time I log in with those...

I'm still using Windows 7 pro because I have both Ceton Echo's and Xbox 360's as extenders on my network. I found a thread with instructions on how to start an Xbox 360 extender in live TV mode on WIndows 8 from member wilkcards this evening It didn't work at first but with a slight modification I...

I was wondering if anyone has been successful in adding Xbox360 extenders to either of the current Android or Apple app versions of MyMovies (developed by Binnerup)? I can add the host PC, but none of my extenders. I've sought help on MyMovies forum, but support falls short of a solution. I'm...

Hi All
New to the forum, but been using WMC for years and years.
I have no TV signal in a room in the house that I'd really like to put a TV in. From reading it looks like the best way to extend my existing WMC is an extender of the xbox 360 variety.
I don't have an xbox (only a PS3 that never gets...

My Linksys DMA2100s stopped working when Comcast moved to mpeg4. I've found that the Raspberry Pi running OSMC and adding Server WMC to the Media Center PC makes an acceptable substitute.

I am using an RPI 2. I also found it was necessary to purchase and install the RPI MPEG2 license for ~$3....

Hi everyone,

I am having trouble with my Xbox Media Remote. Currently I have my Xbox set to turn on and start up into WMC extender. I use my Xbox Media remote to turn on the Xbox. I find that after booting into the WMC, the remote is not causing any response to WMC. during these times, if I turn...

Hi. I am unable to see one mp4 in the xbox 360 system video player through WMC PC but it will play in system video player through a direct usb connection. I can see it and play it through media center (videos) on the xbox 360 and I can see it and play it through windows media center on the PC...

Hello. Hopefully someone can provide ideas.

I recently bought some powerline ethernet adapters, as my condo is 20yrs old (thus, poor regular ethernet wiring,) and my wifi is not fast-enough to provide even low-level playback. I want to be able to use my XBox 360 to watch TV and recorded TV in my...

Last November, we celebrated a major milestone, as the Xbox 360 console turned 10 years old.

The Xbox 360 helped redefine an entire generation of gaming at Microsoft. I am incredibly proud of all of the work and dedication that went into development of the Xbox 360 hardware, services and games...

Not sure where this question goes, but can't find an answer with my searches so far...

I have my always on WMC 7 machine, and two XBOX 360 extenders... I guess over time and re-installing / re-configuring the extenders they are now labeled as MCX5 and MCX6. Is there a way to renumber them? I need...

Hi folks,

I'm planning on adding an Xbox 360 Slim as an extender in the future. I will have them hooked via WIRED a gigabit network switch. Currently, my WMC PC will sleep after a period of inactivity. I would like it to continue doing that once I add the Xbox (no sense in wasting electricity). If...

I have an Xbox 360e and the Ethernet died. Is there a usb WIRED adapter that works? The thing is useless slow on wireless.

I have set up my Xbox 360 as an extender to my windows 7 media center. Everything works fine except the interlaced channels look like heck on my TV. Jagged lines everywhere. I set the XBOX to 1080i as the output but it doesn't seem like the video is being passed to my TV as interlaced content as...

Hello,

I have spent countless hrs attempting to fix this problem, only to hit dead end after dead end. I have a xbox that I have used (successfully, for about a year) as an extender for WMC 8. Im not sure what I did, but I am now unable to connect to my HTPC running win 8.1 pro. I have tried...

Just curious if anyone has tried 4K content through an extender. I'm not even sure if it's possible through a 360. I've tried searching and only found some info on on people with HTPC trying it out.

Just wondering how many of you have no problem playing the new Cable TV format MPEG4 h.264?

Some say Echo and Xbox are unable to play protected Live TV that is broadcast in the new MPEG4 standard.

Apparently Live non protected plays fine.

Hi everyone,

We've been using Xbox 360's for two extenders, but one has died and I wanted to try something quieter for the bedroom. I bought a Linksys DMA2100 off ebay that did not come with a remote. I figured this was fine since we have the older model 360 universal media remote, plus a SMK...

I have 3 extenders, an xbox 360 slim, linksys dma2200, and Ceton Echo. When I got a new router, the Linksys WRT1900AC, all of my extenders originally worked. Then, at some point, the Ceton and Linksys extenders stopped playing content even though I have no problem pairing them. After some tinkering...

my xbox 360 media center extender used with win7 home prem HTPC random disconnects with these errors
WMDRM-ND registration failed for media center extender error 0xc00d278f
and windows media center encountered a DRM failure error 0xc00d278f

This happens randomly when watching recorded TV or mp4...

So I have this issue which I can’t find any possible solutions on the web, hopefully some of you might have an input. I have a HTPC with Windows Media Center and two XBOX 360 acting as extenders, one hard wired to Ethernet and other connected through wifi. Had this set up for several years with...

Newbie question about volume control on the media remote for Xbox One - is this only for controlling the volume on a 'recognized' TV or receiver via IR blasting or can this control the actual volume output via HDMI or Optical out from the device?

Thanks in advance!

I am running xbox360s all over my house primarily as media center extenders connected to a windows 8.1 WMC PC. I control them with Logitech Harmony remotes and on startup they go right to WMC and start Live TV. Is there a way to program the remote or configure the xbox360 to fire up..say Plex or...
