Found MMC very useful when MC was running on Win 7 - any way of making it work on Windows 10? I have the download from Ceton saved from a years ago - If not, any alternative that would allow management of recorded TV
Thanks

This is not really an issue that needs to be fixed for me because all info is loading, but thought i would report the recent missing images

Not a big deal , but I was pleasantly surprised after converting to epg123, that the premieres in the MMC app started showing up. For me this never worked with the old guide system. I found this very useful in discovering new shows to try out. Not sure of when but of late this feature does not work...

For my network stations (CBS/NBC...etc) - the listing are correct, but the Icons on the far left side on the app (on my phone) are saying HBO/Hitz 1/Hitz 2...etc - and there are various other channels with errors like this as well

I am using EPG123 as my guide engine, and everything looks fine on...

Hey everyone. I am trying to get some data out of my WMC setup into Home Assistant, such as Scheduled Recordings. Just by running a Wireshark capture, I can see that the Ceton MMC app is simply sending GET requests to the WMC server. This is easy to replicate in Home Assistant, but there is one...

Where can I download My Media Center for my Windows 7 HTPC?

I can't seem to find the download page for it any more. Did Ceton go out of business?

Do I need to do a 2020 update?

I have one Ceton Echo I run at my desktop computer (Windows 10) using My Media Center.
I had to change the IP address on my WMP Windows 7 computer and now cannot connect my Windows 10 running My Media Center to it. A Scan for the new device says No New Devices Found After manual install of Windows...

So there have been a few looks, but no suggestions to the My Media Center problem I've got.
How about this.... I've got My Media Center running on another Windows 10 computer. Since the app is no longer available anywhere, is anyone smart enough to help me copy the working app from one computer...

Hi,

My issue is when using MMC to set recordings, it does not use the default recording settings within WMC. It starts the recording at the broadcast start time, not the 5mins early set within WMC. Is there a setting within MMC I have missed?

WMC records fine if recordings are setup from within...

I love using Ceton My Media Center from the comfort of my phone or tablet. But when I got a new phone yesterday I could no longer install it from the Play Store. It's just not freakin' there any more! Long story short it is being sold on Amazon. (Which sucks, because you have to pay $4.99 for it...

We're at the point where we're thinking about the best way to distribute MMC on iOS.

App Store distribution is not possible since this isn't our app and we don't have the source code.

Enterprise distribution is not possible since Apple has pretty stringent requirements for signing up for an...

Hello,

I recently installed EPG123 and it's been great. All except for I think it might be the reason that MMC is no longer showing upcoming shows when I try to search for them.

I can search for any title and if I have it recorded, it'll show the recorded TV, but it will *not* show future...

My Companion remote access is not working today, and I was hoping some people would have recommendations for troubleshooting.

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.

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 ?

Hello Ceton,

I found a bug when using My Media Center on my iPad in the new sidebar mode. This is wonderful since I use it in combination with a Slingbox to access my media center remotely (mostly from the gym).

I honestly don't put any stock in this ever getting fixed, but figured I should give everyone a shout out and let them know that wih the new EPG provider changeover in WMC, the 'Premieres' function in MMC no longer works.

Hi,

I really like the My Media Center concept (mainly Windows 8 apps to get the modern UI experience also for PVR), but I get a bit worried in investing in it (not the price as it is pretty cheap, but more the time needed to configure it) as the last release seems to be from 2013.

So, two...

I successfully upgraded my Windows 8 Pro WMC machine to Windows 8.1 this past Thursday Oct. 17th. When I launched WMC after the upgrade, WMC posted an error message stating that Ceton OTAY application could not be started, giving me the option to disable the application.

Grasping at straws, I...

HTPC Win7 MC
Running My Media Center on Win 8 and Win 8.1
Recording management, etc, works fine.
When I go to play a recorded tv episode, I get No devices detected capable of playback, ,,
The xbox is on, and in WMC mode.
I can play all the recorded tv just fine through the xbox MC app.
Any ideas?

ok... I got a new wireless router and was trying to set up port forwarding. I know my way around a computer, but anything networking related has always caused me problems.

I'd set up port forwarding on my old router... and thought I was doing it correctly on my new router... but spent 2-3 hours at...

About 90% of what I do with the Ceton app is set recordings of basketball and football games. I generally like recordings to go 60 minutes beyond the program guides time block. This can be done within Media Center, but can it be done from the Ceton app? I'd love to have an Edit icon where I can...

Hello, I was wondering if Ceton plans on adding a feature to My Media Center to be able to playback music from the WMC music library on my phone like Remote Media Center client app for Android. Also wondering if there are plans to have a web interface to the My Media Center server like Remote...

Hey guys,

I have a HTPC on Windows 7 and I'm trying to control it through My Media Center running on iOS 7, Windows Phone 8, and Windows 8.1. On all the devices, I can connect locally, and download the information, but I can't actually 'do' anything. I can't control the TV, I can't record a...

is anyone else again having the problem that your WMC screen is going black ('timing out' to screensaver mode) after using the remote functionality on this app? I am using a 360 extender, and the android app. This seemed to be fixed for awhile, and apparently has returned.

I'm using the newest...

Wireless providers have been using carrier grade NAT for IPv4 for a while now, and many have added IPv6 support to their networks (Verizon Wireless and AT&T both support it, and I believe T-Mobile does too, at least partially). Comcast has taken the lead, with their network handling the most native...

I loved this app but recently have not been able to connect to my PC and receive Otay error messages from WMC. I have verified times, rebooted, manually entered IP/port, removed AVG, removed Malwarebytes, turned off fire walls, uninstalled/reinstalled app and server; but still no connection. I am...

Love this app. Running it on a Kindle fire, computer is running Windows 7 and aside from on little hiccup during installation it's been running flawlessly.

I've been transferring my movies from disc to hard drive and for the most part the app has picked up the metadata for just about every movie...

I have been trying to do port forwarding on the SBG6500 router but when I go into the forwarding tab all it has is a button that says Create IPv4. I really need help with this it would be much appreciated.

The My MC app suddenly limited my channels in the guide but everything is working normally in Media Center. The guide now stops at channel 151 and won't go any higher. Does anyone have a solution for this problem? Thanks.

Just a heads up, since ART is still beta, but My Media Center crashes if you try to run on it.

Hi all

Anyone have any thoughts or experience with the following. I had a functioning MMC install on the HTPC that had a fresh Windows 8.0 build. Ceton Otay and etc. functioned normally. I did not remove the Ceton services prior to performing the 8.0 to 8.1 upgrade. Now, with 8.1, I am unable to...

I cant change the channel on my phone. I can can see the guide, record shows, but i cant change the channel. Any suggestions? Win 8.1

I recently got this app working on our iPad. One thing I can't figure out is I was able to change the name of my PC from ARCADE-PC to Bedroom but when I click tune to channel my options are Gamer and something close to MXC1-ARCADE-PC . I think Gamer is one of my login ID's on the ARCADE-PC so I...

My Media Center hasn't received any updates in months so is it safe to assume it has been abandoned like the echo ?.
I use the app frequently and considering how it was progressing at the start I thought it had so much potential and it will be one outstanding app. Ceton should have a look at the...

Hi all

When i install and try to open My media center it hangs at the blue intro screen and that's it no response to even the back button. I have to force stop or uninstall to close. I have reinstalled the app, Run the diagnostic in My media center config on the PC, checked the port connection from the...

Using the Win 8 and Android apps, I cannot get my skip buttons to work. I think this has gone on for a couple of versions of the PC configuration tool. I was on a version from several months ago, then recently updated My Media Center Configuration to 13.10.20.0199, then the beta 13.10.28.1275....

Hi
I have a surface RT tablet and a windows 7 64bit PC and I have downloaded the necessary software on that PC. I have a Telstra modem so I don't know how to set port forwarding but my PC is not recognised when I try scanning.
Can I set up My Media Centre from my tablet? Thanks!

Hi,

I get a install error on a fresh german Windows 8.0 Media Center. (See attachment)

Thx for help.

Under the settings in my iPhone, When I go to Ceton's My Media Center ( My MC) the screen is blank. I have contacted apple and they had me do the following:

unistall the App
Reset my phone altogether.
reinstall the app.

They said it must be an issue with the app's newest version.

I cannot rename...

Is this capability true or false??? Both websites, CETON and APPLE display an iPhone with renamed extenders ( such as family room and bedroom ). Yet, I am unable to do this. The CETON website directs me here for a fix.... Is this possible. So far, I have one response that informed me that the...

is there any way to make this thing play music that i have on a nas. it plays in media center fine just want remote control for when im in the yard without having to buy a sonos.

In the Settings screen of an iPhone 4, iOS 5.0.1, the font size for Default Channel is larger than the font size of other items on the screen. Therefore, the word Channel overlays the default channel number.

Scrolling up and down moves the channel number over to the right, the...

I'm using the My Media Center app on Windows Phone, and went to the guide to schedule Monday Night Football. I selected the option to record the series, and the red dots show that the guide entry was set to record. If I hit the back button and then click on scheduled recordings, the item does not...

Apologies if this has been addressed already - I would like to run the windows 8.1 app on the same PC as the MMC server. I have win 8.1, installed the beta server and installed the app. (all on the same computer). But the app will not connect to the server, no matter how I try to set it up. I...

Hi,

Can someone tell me how to set this up.

Thank you.

When choosing a movie from my own local library, the app first says Playback will begin momentarily and then followed by has started. However, on the computer with My Media Center Config installed, nothing happens. No programs open, no videos begin playing, nothing. What is wrong?

To give some...

Just purchased, wanted to try it out first but no free trial :|
I just tried to record a few things on purpose trying to create a tuner conflict, the app said it was going to record, however wasn't on the scheduled recording list in the media center, but on the app's guide it said it is scheduled...

Picked up the kindle and went to check the tv guide and I get an error, Password incorrect, please longpress on PC to edit, Unable to connect to PC. please check connection or PC settings.

I haven't changed anything and there is no password set on the config program. I've tried un and...

Hello! I have been running My Media Center 13.2.26.1062 since it's release & have experienced no issues accessing the interface. I upgraded to the latest version today, 13.10.20.199 and can longer access the software. It appears that the latest update (13.10.20.199) incorrectly sets the TCP...

After updating to the lasted version of the MY Media Center App (13.10.20.199) on my Win 7 machine, the forward and backward skip buttons no longer work on my win 8 phone or my wife's iPhone. All other buttons work including the fast forward and back button but just not the skip (>>I)(I<<).

I purchased and installed the app for WIndows 8.1 a few days ago, absolutely love it. BUT I have an issue. When looking at a program in the program guide there is no information about the program. For example if I click on Mythbusters I would expect to see a description of what the program is about...

So two weeks ago everything was running fine, with my Windows 8 machine and iPhone 4s finding each other and connecting without issue. However, suddenly the phone can no longer find the computer using the Wi-Fi scan, and with a manual add I get the Unable to Connect message. I have checked the time...

Hi been lurking here for a while normally just browse but now I need help. Recently bought the my media centre app for my ipad mini and also my channel logos XL. My HTPC running win 8pro with media centre.not all of the logos are showing in the guide on MMC app.I,m in the uk and bbc1,bbc2,itv1 and...

I love the feature to load all the Movies, Recorded TV, and Scheduled TV...and would love it ported to the guide as well. The current configuration is a 120 HD channels (using Ceton's InfiniTV ETH Cablecard), but it's very time consuming to scroll and wait 5 seconds for each batch of 10 channels....

Is there a free trial version? I would hate to buy it and find out that it doesn't fit my needs.
Also I have an Ipad and an android phone.
Would I need to purchase twice for each OS?

Since the days of the MSN guide tool and later remote potato, I have missed being able to control WMC from my desktop PC In my office(not my HTPC). Tekzilla discussed a Android emulator for running android apps on a windows PC. I gave it a try and it is working perfectly for running My media center...

Has said coming soon for a while.

Happy user whom just wants this one key feature to support downloaded/ripped (not just recorded) TV.

So if you are updating from Windows 8 to 8.1 I would recommend first uninstalling MMC services before upgrading and re-installing after.

If you have already updated and get Unable to launch Ceton Otay simply uninstall and then re-install and it should be all fixed up.

I just went through this at...

There is a problem with Yamm as the metdata engine. It's not updated frequently, nor does it support TV.

Two external programs do a great job at this. Media Center Master or Media Browser 3 provides rich local file base metadata. Please have an option to read/import local metadata (don't change...

I have one Win7 64 machine that the installer won't install Cdata service and the install fails???? I've rebooted, closed MC, disabled antivirus, stumped :crazy:

When my Media Center is installed it causes video to go blank on my extender and then freeze up, audio still plays but nothing else responds.

I'm using windows 8.1 build 9600

Ceton has released a My Media Center Services update that fixes the problems with YAMMM not populating the movies section of the app. You may or may not have to enable BETA updates in the MMC Services to get the new update if you update that way.

The new version w7_13_10_20_0199 (Windows 7) and...

I was going to post these to the tracker ( but it appears to be down. So here's a few things that I've run into over the last two weeks of using My Media Center. Most are pretty minor but I'd love to see some way to fix #1.

1) I have an X360 and Windows8 machine, and although I want to tell MMC to...

OK, I'm at the end of my rope. A couple of days ago I added a few new movies/folders to my movies directory and thought it was strange that YAMMM didn't populate them immediately (it's never taken more than a couple of seconds). I check the folders again the next day and they still didn't populate....

Is this coming for the iOS version of the app? I use it on the Android version and it works great.

I'm having the same issue that everyone else seems to be having with this app. I get password incorrect please check settings. There is no password set and my time zones and times are the same (setup via internet time). I have checked the port mapping and used the test port mapping feature and it...

I've been using Ceton tuners and their Android app for a while with great success and love it.

I recently purchased a Windows 8 Pro 32 Bit tablet and then purchased the Media Center App.

Here's the problem: I can't seem to get the app to connect to my HTPC, yet the Android one works perfectly...

Just noticed I was updated to 1.3.6. Thanks.

Is there a way to get MMC to use a personalized/custom guide set up within WMC? I have over 500 channels I don't need on MMC. I do have a personal guide on WMC and even customized Remote Potato to limit the number of channels displayed. I can't find a...

Hi, I would like to change the remote (channel up, down, numbers, etc.) for 2 buttons. Specifically for the Movies and Recorded TV buttons, I would like it to launch WMC addins Media Browser and Recorded TV HD respectively.

How could I accomplish this with the My Media Center remote?
