I've always wanted to play Blu-ray's from native Windows Media Center Movie Library so that they open with players like MPC-HC or MPC-BE, so I could get the best possible image quality by using madVR and LAVFilters.

I decided to make a plug-in for 7MC/8MC, it's written in C#, Visual Studio 2012....

Last post

I updated the registry settings file as some of the keys were renamed in MPC-HC since I made this.

For some reason I get the UAP prompt now when launching movie. I don't know if it's because I updated to Win10 2004 or the fact that I'm using WMC 8.8.4 now instead of V12/V13 that I used previously....

The only thing that Remote Potato does that My Media Center cannot is content streaming to remote devices.

The copy on myfrem exposes live TV for streaming I believe. He built an android app to go with it, where you can cast WMC's live TV to something like a Chromecast but you have to pay for the unlocker. I have a copy of it but I never used it much, and moved away from WMC.
