    Media Center Extender


    Now that Microsoft is doing such a great job with backwards compatibility, can we please have someone port the Media Center Extender app to Xbox One?

    I currently have 360s all over the house simply to tie back to my home theater PC which servers up our cable to every TV. We have no cable boxes.

    :)

    Couldn't you just use the plex app to manage that?

    Plex doesn't do encrypted channels via cable card.

    Media Center is for when you're using the Xbox as a Media Center Extender, when connected to a PC running Windows Media Center. :)

    Confirmed: No Media Centre Extender... No Backwards Compatibility... No Deal.

    Wow , no Windows Media Center Extender capability, this is nuts. The Xbox 360 works as a Media center Extender, and so did the Original XBOX. But not the NEXT GENERATION console. What a joke, whats next ?

    Media Center and XBOX wont work - windows 7

    My PC is Windows 7 Home Edition, My Xbox and PC are both on a wireless connection, I managed to connect the Media Center just fine, The way I did this is following the step by step instructions on connecting them together. Please double check these instructions
    and see if you missed a step or maybe by mistake did something wrong.



    First to be on the safe side do this.

    •Click Start, Windows Media Center.

    •Select Task, Settings.

    •Select Extender.

    •Select your Xbox 360 Media Center Extender.

    •Select Uninstall.

    If you cant find the Xbox 360 Media Center Extender then you may not have it installed yet. After checking this step please try the following.



    Gather Setup Key from Xbox 360

    •Press the Media Center Start button on the remote or go to My Xbox, then select Windows Media Center.

    •Advance through the on-screen instructions to obtain the 8-digit Media Center Setup Key. Write this key down.



    Add Extender

    •At the Windows Vista or Windows 7 Media Center PC, launch Windows Media Center. Select Start, Windows Media Center.

    •Select Tasks, Add Extender.

    •When prompted, provide the 8-digit setup key you received from your Xbox 360.

    •Complete the Extender setup.



    This is the exact way that I have installed the media center using a Wireless connection to both systems and having Windows 7. I am however not sure if network discovery has anything to do with this on your PC.
