Media Extender coming to Toshiba Regza LCD TVs and DVD playersYesterday

This is huge!  Much bigger than HP's previous offering.  No offense to you at HP..you make an awesome Windows Home Server and touch enabled PC.

New CableCard PC Option to debut at CESJanuary 3

Have not heard much about ACE, but they are planning to debut an OCUR PC with one tuner for less than $1000.  I will be watching closely, as they are located near me.  Hope they have TV Pack and options do not bring it too high in price.

Requesting Windows 7 Media Center ForumDecember 28 2008
Not sure if this is the right place (couldn't find a forum feedback forum) but it would be nice to have a separate section for W7MC (Windows 7 Media Center). Now all posts go into the nearest match which is the VMC forum.

W7MC seems to differ more and more from VMC and has a lot to offer for us htpc junks. I bet after the official build 7000 release of W7, the number of forum posts about this will increase rapidly.

Admin can you give us a new section please?





Windows 7 Media Center MoviesDecember 28 2008

Hello all,

For those of you Windows 7 testers out there, I have what might seem like a simple question...how do you add movies into the new movies section?  I have a couple of movies in storage but they don't show up in movies but show up in videos.  Do the files have to be in a specific format?
