Not sure if this is a general Windows issue or specifically WMC, but I have a multi-monitor setup, and I'd like to keep WMC full screen on one, while being able to work on the other 2.

Currently, if WMC is full screen, the mouse is unable to be moved to the other screens.

Is this possible?...

whenever the cmd.exe window appears it just sits there with nothing happening. is this a problem with the windows script host?

Hi, I’m new to The Green Button and Windows 10. I’ve been using WMC on Windows 7 with my HDHomeRun Prime and EPG123 without issues for many years. Unfortunately, Turbotax 2020 is forcing me to use Windows 10, so I’ve decided to try to get WMC to work on it. Here’s what I’ve done:

Made a clean...

When attempting to install either of the mentioned versions I get a constantly flashing CMD screen. I have to restart the computer in order to stop the cmd screen.

Need help in how to completely remove any instance of WMC from computer in order to install a fresh copy of WMC. Just doing the uninstall in the program doesn't appear to do so.

I'm stuck - upgraded my machine to win10 (64-bit) and installed WMC fine. But when I tried to go and scan using my existing USB tuner (KaiserBaas) it gave me the BSOD. Apparently no updated win10 64-bit drivers and no longer manufactured or support.

So I need a new USB tuner (or two if not dual)....

So, when I was using WMC W7 I was able to tune all DVB-T stations but when I moved on to W10 8.8.5 and reinstalled I have three channels missing. The option in Settings > TV > Settings > Guide > Add Missing Channel is missing so I cannot manually add. I have tried everything else, rescanning...

Hello there:

I have a Xbox 360 Media Remote and I want to use it for WMC on Windows 10, the bad thing is that there is literally no documentation on how to do this anywhere :problem:, I wonder if you guys can help. :D

Hello there.

Is there a recently found solution for WMC Extenders on Windows 10? I've been looking with no luck at all, I have an Xbox 360 S that I had since 2016 and I want to connect WMC to it to watch TV and Recorded TV. I hope someone can help me :D

Back in 2015 I built a HTPC and started with Windows 10. I had nothing but issues getting Windows Media Center to work. I was using a CableCARD + HD HomeRun Prime at the time, so perhaps that was part of the issue. Constant forced updates would break Windows Media Center, the guide would stop...

Hi guys,

Successfully running WMC for some time now, and tonight it wont start. I have the icon pined to my taskbar. Windows updated very recently, maybe overnight... Went looking for it on the PC and its not listed in the files. Tried to install 8.8.5 using InstallerBLUE.cmd This is what I am...

Hi, not sure what I've done... WMC was running fine on Windows 10... I did some housekeeping on my music files and now 'My Music' shows no files / albums... just an error message 'There are no items in this library yet - Windows Media Centre is searching for media files in the background. To add...

Hi forum, I have tried everything, Kody, Plex, Media Portal, Embry and god know what else but for me Windows media Center is still the best, simple interface, practical and clean . I am running 8.8.5 on Windows 10 and no issues, have customized with MCE Toolbox and have even got the old Netflix WMC...

Has anyone tried remote potato with WMC on Windows 10?
If so.. any links or setup instructions would be appreciated.

Full-screen freezing started a few days ago, with no major changes to an 1809 build, other than a .net update from late last month (uninstalled that). Tried the copy ehome out and copy back with disabled acceleration, updated video drivers, downgraded video drivers, tried a few different windows...

When I point my cursor to the epg123 icon in the tray after the scheduled update, I see the message importing ... waiting for recordings to end ... except the recordings haven't started yet. Is there a cure for this? Thanks.

Using epg123 1.6.1.3 with Windows 10 20H2 build 19042.746, WMC 8.8.5

i recently refreshed my win10 install and now when i try to install the WMC pack it says it is already installed, however the 'C:\Windows\ehome' directory is no longer there and has been moved to 'C:\Windows.old\ehome' copying the files back and running the uninstaller does not work either, what...

Hello - I recently upgraded to Windows 10 and installed WMC 8.8.5 in the hopes that it would detect my HDHomeRun PRIME tuners, as these are supposed to work 'out of the box' with WMC 8.8.5, but unfortunately WMC is saying it cannot detect any tuners in my system, despite the fact that they work...

So I'm using Windows 10 Media Center on build 10586.0, which is the last build I know of that supported DRM for the SiliconDust prime 3. Did I miss anything about supporting DRM past build 10586?

Title pretty much says it all - has anyone ever seen or accomplish custom keyboard shortcuts?
Thanks in advance.

Hey Everyone! Longtime lurker first time poster.

I have had this issue for years, but I recently updated to a Windows 10 Machine, WMC 8.8.5, and a WinTV Quad Tuner and hoped it would go away, but it didn't.

Whenever a scheduled recording takes place, it switches my liveTV to that channel even...

It's always bothered me that video output on WMC looks somewhat blurry and lacking in dynamics.

Well, for some reason, WMC does not display the rightmost column of pixels (even with display type TV, overscan off, TV set to 1:1 fit) AND no matter the video decoder (MF, LAV, ffdshow...)

Just about...
