Should I remove some programs first, or just install windvd? Any particular version have good codecs? I would like to be able to play all video file extensions...
from what I read the NDVD codec from nvidia is the best dvd codec for MCE. I installed it and now I can play dvds in MCE and Media Player fine. also get the Kazaa codec pack that has almost everything you need to play video.

Does your tv tuner card have no functionality at all? I mean can you install the driver? Can you get it to work with the MSI software?
Just wondering.
I know this is kinda late but I want to know if MCE is a stand alone OS, or does it need XP before installation
Guess what guys. PowerDVD 6 includes a DivX codec and is giving me great MPEG2 results. I haven't tried a fresh install yet, but that is the only codec-related app I have installed at the moment and everything is working great - better IMHO than the Nvidia codec.
More info and a free demo can be found here.

Like what?
well I 've had it going for sometime now and to tell you the thruth havent used the MCE part hardly ever.
Music- winamp
dvds- powerdvd 6
vids- BS player pro
pictures- adobe album or XP's picture fax viewer
movie making- ulead dvd factory3
messenger- trillian 3.0 beta
But isn't that just because your TV doesnt work in MCE or is it that you don't like the interface?
I use it exclusively because it's all remote controllable.
I am wondering if you can install the TV tuner for the MSI TV@nywhere and use the MSI software to get it to work?
I am going to try this out tonight I think.
the msi software works fine just not thru the mce control panel.
That's good news. Well i can't install it tonight.. so I will try again tomorrow.
Supa, what version of MCE are you running? I heard the Australian released version only support ananlog TV and not Digital HD TV cards?? Does support mean there is no M$ WHQL certified drivers for the cards, or that MCE just wont work at all??
