Next SVN version should take care of WMC (Windows Media Center) services on Vista as well. Note that MP has to be run as Administrator, as only admins & installers seem to be able to start/stop services for now.
It now stops ehrecvr, ehsched & ehtray and restarts them after MP has quit. Note that ehtray is no service, so whurlston's way is of course the right way when you're not going to use WMC, but doesn't stop Vista from loading that exe. For whurlston's way you have to stop ehtray from starting up on Vista boot e.g. using msconfig.exe. That way you wouldn't have MP to run as Administrator for that reason... Might still be needed for other parts, time will tell as it's all not really been tested on Vista like it has been on XP over the years.
...or you just let MP run as admin for now and don't have to do anything else... (my fix still needs checking, tho) |
