We finally got around to setting up a Media Center PC 2005 box and we’ve got to say, it’s a great deal better than the previous version(s) of MCE. Especially with its ability to use Media Extenders. A Media Extender is basically just software or a device used to extend the Media Center PC’s interface and content to another PC, or, in this case, an Xbox. So, if you have videos, pictures, recorded TV, podcasts, and downloaded media (like we showed you here and here) on your Media Center PC, you can use the Xbox to access them all just like you would on the Media Center. It was a little more complicated than we think it needs to be for average users, but it’s certainly nothing you probably couldn’t handle. Before we get started, if you just want to check out the video to see what this is all about, click here to view (WindowsMedia).
