Previously in Windows 7 I used to be able to place MCL files starting in the following path:
C:\Users\%Username%\AppData\Roaming\Media Center Programs\
I could then create, for example, a subdirectory called "Radio" and place an MCL file calling an html file pointing to an internet streaming radio site. I could then put one each manually for each of my streaming radio stations. The MCL files would automatically appear as an app in the Radio folder of WMC. E.g.,
I could put two files in C:\Users\sippelmc\AppData\Roaming\Media Center Programs\Radio, "CJPX.MCL" and "CJPX.HTM"
CJPX.MCL contents:
Code: Select all
<application name="99.5 CJPX - Radio Classique"
url="CJPX.htm"
startimage="CJPX.JPG"
thumbnailimage="CJPX.JPG"
description="99.5 CJPX - Radio Classique - Montreal"
category="1"
companyname="">
<capabilitiesrequired directx="false"
audio="true"
video="false"
intensiverendering="false"
console="false"
cdburning="false"
/>
</application>
Code: Select all
<script>
function IsMCEEnabled()
{
return true;
}
window.external.MediaCenter.PlayMedia(1, "http://1741.live.streamtheworld.com:80/CJPXFM");
window.external.MediaCenter.Experience.GoToFullScreen()
window.external.MediaCenter.CloseApplication();
</SCRIPT>
I'm aware of the streaming 3rd party apps but they really aren't very UI friendly and WAF dictates nice, easy to nagivate menus....
Thanks.
