Anyone who has used this piece of software (prob only MCE owners and Vista Beta testers). What do you reckon about this software.

Personally I think its great. Well, the XP version is anyway, the Vista Media Center has been redesigned and now sucks as much as you do through a straw, put it this way, you cant play audio through it at full screen. Well not very easily.

Yup, I like it, and find it to be a nice little expansion to the Windows XP Operating System. Now, how about I go try to make some stuff to go under 'More Programs' for it. That'll be good, I have the SDK for it, so thats good.

Anyway, comments from users or just avid readers of Paul Thurrott's SuperSite for Windows.

The Vista version is still in Beta, so that should be fixed when released, or MS are morons, wait... scrap that.

I use MC! :lol: I havent had a problem with it so far. Weve got a digital tuner aswell for ours so we can basically have 2 TV's on Freeveiw! Tis good when 2 people wnat to watch different things on different channels!

used much of the picture slideshow features?

Errrrr. No....Do you really think i know how to use that feature?!

Isn't it just clicking "show slideshow" and then have some fancy options as you view or something? (I don't actually know, just guessing).

Hit View Slideshow
Arrow keys to select image
play/pause to pause slideshow
when paused
- enter to zoom in out
- aarow keys to browse

shame i dont have a mce remote, that would be nice

So it's just pressing view slideshow then using some fancy but pointless features.

why you say theyre pointless?

Well they're not that useful, not much of an extra selling point.

and? it may not be the main feature of it, but so what?

M$ could have spent mor time mking their OSes work properly?
