Demon sorry to bother again but I need your help again.
I reformatted my PC and i seemed to get all my settings using media browser working like I had them before except 1 thing.
The volume in my MKV and AVI files is really low.
Before I used to have my volume at 50 or 55 max when watching MKV's but now I have to go to 65 even 70 to use it and I don't seem to be getting sound with all of my speakers with the surround.
I installed same items I had before (Shark 007 and CCCP)
any help please??

The only thing I'm sure of is it's codec related, apart from that I dont know how to tell you to fix it, and on that point, my pc is the same as yours with mkv, so if you figure it out let me know plz

I love the look of MediaBrowser, but have always been apprehensive at modifying MC for gfear of it becoming unstable. I travel a lot and it would not be good for it to go down while I am out of town. Wife would kill me. Before I leap can I ask a couple questions?
- Comment on stability?
- Can it be run in parallel with current menus so I can evaluate for a while?
- Any problems with breaks with metadata or other? - Wife factor.
- Basically it needs to be pretty bullet proof for the wife or I pay...

It will be fine for starters its a plugin ,so basically wife can still use wmc without using media browser, the stability is fine i have used it for a couple of years and no problems whatsoever with wmc,and i recently had a wmc update and that created no problems either.
also it adds a item to the menu so you choose MB or use the other menus as suits.

Hi- Simple question I think. I have downloaded and installed Media Browser. The install went OK and I see it along with my media. I do not see any metadata. No fan art, nothing on cast and crew, or no synopsis. Do I need to get one of those plug-in themes to make it work?

i use media center master to get my meta data. i drag one folder at a time over to MCM and it sorts it out for me, you can drag several one by one and it forms a que,
Tip make sure the film title is correct with no extra info ie file type and add the year

I thought media browser did all that. I tried clearing the cache and refreshing and still nothing. If it does not manage the metadata then that explains why there is nothing there.

i think its supposed to but its never showed for me thats why i do it manually, its a pain at first if you have a large collection of movies but once its done then its easy just adding one or two as they come along.

To have mediabrowser fetch it's own metadata you'll need to have your collection sorted like mb needs to be able to understand what it is looking at.
That means every movie will need to be in a folder of it's own named EXACTLY as the movie is named, and same for the movie it's self, named exactly as the movie is.
ie D:\Movies\Cars\Cars.avi
D:\Movies\Avatar\Avatar.mkv
TV shows also need to be sorted just so for mb to fetch info.
F:\TV Shows\Lost\Season 1\Lost 01x01 - Pilot.avi
or s01e01
but the names MUST be perfect, or mb will not know what it's looking at and fetch nothing.
you must also ensure that fetching metadata is enabled in the mb config options.
to learn all about what makes mb tick check out the MB Knowledge Base or (KB), Media Browser Community Tracker

If I put on my remote for example the button for “ VIDEOS” I go into this chapter in WMC.
But I would like to put on the same button and go into MEDIA BROWSER. Is this possible ?

if you can program your remote to open a shortcut ,then have it open the mediabrowser shortcut, if you cant find it it will be in programfiles/ mediabrowser , and the shortcut is called application.
if not then pressing the media center button on your remote and scrolling up to mediabrowser is the only option i know.

Hey all been a while. I just bought a sony bluray and was wondering if i can set-up wmc with mediabrowser to connect via https, and if so will it look worse than streaming directly to device via wmp?
savvy - as in - this meaning
Thanks in advance
p.s. i see serviio pro has mediabrowser with it but do i need or want to buy that program just to access from internet?
netflix looks OK
i just installed - web- API not sure if right thing
Thanks again, peace
update - tried mezzmo - ok but cant do on the fly rendering or transcodes
wmp - great, but cant read a lot of files even with shark codecs and flac support etc.
wild media center - so far so good
xbmc - tried but looks like rest unless i add to bluray as http -
plex - no way
arcsoft - awaiting on you as George might say
serviico - still wait for expert opinion
obviously can download these illegally, but want to pay for correct one for my pc

Yes, but you'd need to be a proficient programmer in C# and MCML. the code is open source and there is plugin project files included for the template
