[QUOTE="CyberSimian, post: 1245531, member: 141969"] Since WMC is included in Windows 7, and you already have Windows 7, why not use that with WMC? If you are trying to setup a second HTPC, you could probably purchase a Windows 7 DVD from Ebay. You need to be careful, as there are many sellers who are selling either pirated copies, or OEM copies, for very low prices. Last year I purchased two Windows 7 DVDs from Ebay, but I restricted myself to items where the seller clearly stated that it was a full-retail DVD, that the images showed the actual item, and that the images were consistent with official images of Windows DVDs with the holograms. As a result, I paid virtually full retail price for these pre-loved copies of Windows, but they have installed and activated without problem. The problem is that most MP developers are in Europe, and have little or no knowledge of the USA cable TV system. The one and only MP developer who is expert in TV matters is on sabbatical at the moment, with no return date fixed. So I think that there is no one around who can offer advice. That is why you would probably be better advised to pursue a WMC solution. Open-source volunteer software projects have both advantages and disadvantages. -- from CyberSimian in the UK [/QUOTE]
