Re: Command Center

How did you change the GUI of your Media Center 2005 to that of XBMC?

I run XBMC ontop of MCE 2005. I dont even really use the MCE part of it. I had Vista Home premium and loved the media center part of it, but my aging P4HT in the living room had trouble keeping up sometimes. The menus were slow and whatnot.

I've fallen in love with XBMC after discovering the online video scraping it does for Adult Swim, CBS, NBC, Hulu, etc.... and have since shut off cable.

Do you mind linking to where or explaining how I can get XBMC to run on a PC?

Right now, I personally run Vista Media Center as well, with it hooked up to my LCD TV. I think it's great, but I'd like to give XBMC a try.

»xbmc.org/ I would kill to figure a way for them all to sync what they're doing if asked so that no matter what room I'm in, i can see the same thing I was watching/listening to in the other room, but seriously no complaints. Especailly since it's really not that demanding on video hardware.
