[QUOTE="Danno100, post: 24954, member: 16006"] Biggest pain with MCE is that it is a special version of Windows XP. Whereas MP is just an application that runs on XP (or other). Therefore, MCE is much harder to install. MCE has fewer plug-ins, but it is more reliable than MP. MCE has much greater demands on hardware, especially how it handles video cards (the issue is beyond my understanding). I also purchased Meedio, but the TV application is separate and I don't think it should be. Meedio is harder to configure, but has a lot more plug-ins and skins. Having all three on one computer, I prefer MP because it has TV integrated, and is easy to configure and flexible. MCE has a slightly better interface. MCE makes EPG easy. [/QUOTE]
