Why I left out Gateway
I don't know if certain vendors plan to incorporate a stand alone unit into the hardware that functions independently of its being an MCE eXtender. Q: What front-panel controls/displays do you expect I am not sure if Windows CE will support a tuner anyhow. -- Regards, =D- Derek R. Flickinger Interactive Homes, Inc.

MCE Xbox Rollup 1 - How?
Maybe it's the media player control or support for local animation - does the MCX have the same animations as MCE? IMHO: Not enough cool technology to warrant hacking the MCE / MCX interface You are probably right :-( On one side, they are pushing standards like UPnP and on the side they make everything proprietary

5) Does the Xbox in MCE eXtender mode support both VBR and CBR WMV videos equally as well? This seems to be in contrast to some of the earlier threads discussing problems people have had rendering certain videos. The bottom line, based on the original question about the differences of a PC-based MCE machine and the

Creating an "soft" MCE Extender?
So far, I have XBox 360 and a Linksys MCE extender. Xbox 360 has built-in support for MCE so it's working great. Linksys extender is working well but too much compared to the original xbox with extender kit. I could probably get an used xbox + extender for around $150 Canadian. Least expensive Linksys extender is

AAACK!!!! "X-Box 360 has been disconnected because..."
If your iTunes library contains Apple Lossless tracks then so far I have not found a way to get WMP (and therefore MCE) to play them. Ironically, WMPTSE (see below) First an AAC codec (I use CoreAAC) and secondly Windows Media Player Tag Support Extender (WMPTSE) see http://www.wmplugins.com/ItemDetail.aspx?

MCE Extender can't change TV Channels
I'm guessing that your son is saving his video in a non-extender-supported format - if he saves his video in MPEG 1, 2 or WMV then he should be fine (once you have WinDVD6 installed on the MCE PC!) 3. Extenders don't support DVD playback at the moment - so this is (kind-of) unrelated. Fingers crossed it all works!

MCE Extender and MS Anti-Spyware - NO GOOD
The AntiSpyware software will not support Media Center Extenders. You have the latest XBOX CDROM (the original disks have since been updated) and the current Media Center Extender update software installed of the MCE2005 machine correct?? How is the XBOX attached to your network: Wired or Wifi?
