Hi,

I used MCC for the whole trial period. It worked well so i donated 10$ to activate the software.

But everytime I try to activate it there is the following error message:

unable to activate: Failed to get activation data: Unable to get activation key: Unknown license ID: .....

Does anybody...

I installed Media Center Cast, and it seems to have integrated itself just fine, but it doesn't seem to be what I'm looking for.

What I want to do.. is stream the TV content I'm watching on my computer in WMC to my Chromecast. Is there any way to do that with this? If not, can it be made to do so...

There are now new chromecast apps. I tried the Revision3 app. It shows the cast icon and my MCE is listed. When I try to cast, it does not connect. Made sure my system was working with youtube app and it works fine.

Anyone getting the Revision3 app to work. I also saw that Pandora is suppose to be...

I'm glad I didn't pay for this because it looks like it has been permanently abandoned. Too bad because it had potential if it was kept up to date and could leverage apps like Pandora.

I use Eventghost and an Android remote app to control my HTPC with WMC. Eventghost has a built in WMC plugin that sends commands such as play, pause, live TV, and even back. The problem is, since MCC is not actually a part of WMC, these commands are ignored and I cannot back out. Is it possible to...

When installing, I selected the option to allow it to un in the background, but it appears that I have to manually run it myself the first time. Is it possible to set this up to run automatically upon system startup so that it's always ready, willing and and able to accept casts???

so i bought and download mediacenter cast b7 version and by the way great product..it beats other aiplay streaming softwares like aerodrom , air server and such...i ve tried them all but this one is the only one that feels native to the mobile device but its not a finished product by any means...i...

Couldn't find any settings for the app in the program folder, hoping to get rid of the giant bar on the bottom that displays the last keypress on screen which takes up about a 10th of the 720P screen.
If it's not already possible to disable could you please add it? If you're too busy, I'm willing...

Hello,

I recently started using the Media Center Cast in my household and my girlfriend and I love it howver we do have one request.

Is it possible to make the Media Cast play Google Music continuesly from a playlist.

As it currently works we pick a song and it plays that song but it does not...

The Pandora Android app has been updated to support casting to Chromecast. However, when I am on the same network as Media Center Cast, the cast icon does not show up. Is this something that MCC needs to be updated for?

It's obvious the developer is not interested in supporting this app, which is a shame since it wasn't cheap for what it was. I really can't recommend this app to anyone when the actual Chromecast is much more feature rich.

Youtube works fine but I just get a white screen and this error when tab casting:
Cannot load the requested version of the CV receiver app. Please try again later. If the problem persists, try updating the CV extension in your browser.

Any ideas?

I've had this issue since the first beta and I'm not sure if others are having the same issues. I use a remote to control my HTPC and pressing the back button twice does not bring back to windows media center. I have to hit the green button but when i return to MCC none of the controls work.

MCC is crashing on occasion and I'd like to figure out why. I didn't see any events logged in the event viewer. Anywhere else I should be looking?

Hi there,

paid for the app and am happy with it and only very occasionally does it crash or stop responding.

can there be an option (or is there already ??) to have the MCC start in the YouTube screen. The one you get after you have cast a YouTube video from your phone, where you use the remote to scroll up...

I had the trial version B07 installed and it was working great. Something in the last couple of days has stopped it working. Currently I am using the iOS YouTube app. It finds the media centre to cast to. The mediacast opens the video ready for playback but it never starts. Switching to another...

Hi

I love the idea of this app but am having some issues setting it up. It basically won't work and every time I launch it, my tv tuner stops working. I am wondering if it is binding with the ceton infinitv network card instead of the Ethernet. Is there a way to specify e correct nic card to...

HBO Go was just released for chrome cast... any chance you could get that for media center cast too? :grin: pretty please?

Hello,

Does anybody know how to play youtube video's in HD with media center cast. HD video's play dont play on high resolution with the default settings. Cant find anything to adjust this. Is it even possible?

Thanks for your concerns,

kind regards, Hegino

Hello! I am running Windows 8.1 Pro (my personal machine) & I am unable to use the MediaCenter Cast software with Youtube via my Android LG G2 phone (I have confirmed the basics - on the same Wi-Fi network,etc.). The MCC software loads without issue inside of MCE, but the chromecast button simply...

Hello.

I'm very interested in you app for WMC.
Maybe it would be possible to support Samsungs AllShare-Cast in future? That would be a great addition. AFAIK it also works on base of DLNA streaming.
So it would be very handy to stream pictures and movies directly from mobile device to WMC.

Any...

I may have missed this, if it has already been posted, I apologize.

I installed trial version of MCC and it works very well, but (you knew there would be a But ) I have lost the ability to Stop Live TV W7MC with the stop button on the remote. I uninstalled MCC & the Stop function on remote...

I would love to be able to change the screen in media center cast that shows up when it is idle. A screensaver like the actual chromecast dongle has.
Also change the name of the device without changing the name of my PC.
Can we display the network the computer is connected to?

Thank you in...

Been using this for the past few days and noticed quite a few odd things about how this program works. I know its essentially an Alpha but it seems quite a bit of the basic functionality doesn't work as expected… here are some of my issues.

Download the latest beta (1.0B6) and get Chrome tab casting!

Note: You need a desktop chrome (Windows or Mac) and the Google Cast extension .

Tried to cast with Google Chrome and the cast plug-in. Worked at the youtube site. Tried to cast from another site like:

Screen when black like it was going to cast, but nothing showed on the screen. Then got Cast error on browser that it couldn't cast. Also tried full screen (Experimental)...

I'm a little stumped as to what I am doing wrong. I have installed Media Center Cast beta 5, ran it from WMC, and opened up my YouTube app on Android. The Chromecast button at the top does not appear, though. I have made absolute certain that both the PC and phone are on the same network. Is there...

I upgraded to B5 from B3. Now when I try to play a youtube on the MCE I get the error: Playback Error. The video is currently unavailable.

The video plays fine on my tablet.

Don't know what happened. Have not tried going back to B3 to see if it works back there.

I'm running the latest beta and I have a problem with the screen media center cast launches on. I have a dual display setup for my HTPC and MC Cast always launches on the wrong one. Is it possible to either specify the launch screen or launch on the same screen media center is on?

Thanks!

Hey everyone,

some early adopters have been experiencing problems with their Crestron setups or getting an SSDP error message.

To all users, I imply you to download 1.0B3 which will fix all these early beta problems.

Fred

Hey everyone,

if you are experiencing problems with some YouTube videos having problem playing, please update to 1.0B4 .

Fred

A new version has come and here are the highlights:

- Added background casting option to keep the service running in background and allow any-time casting
- Removed the .net 4.5 installation requirement (should now run on straight computers with built-in .net 3.5 like Windows 7)

Background...

This looks promising (including Brians' reply in the comments).

The FAQ says, The WMC remotes controls the YouTube app perfectly. But, I couldn't pause with the WMC remote; I had to pause on the tablet. ???
