I am trying to get the XM Radio Online plugin to work within Windows Media Center 7. I am following the widely published instructions, but when I click on the plugin it navigates me straight to the SiriusXM site. I do not get a popup to login or start a 7 day trial. I have tried this on multiple machines and I experience the same thing. When I click on "Listen Online" link it wont open up the XM player, it appears popup windows do not function in the browser within WMC.

Has anyone come across this behavior? Any suggestions

I know, not exactly the answer you were looking for but "I don't use WMC to listen to Sirius/XM on my desktop".

Instead, I use a great (free) program named XMTuner.

Of course you must have the Online Service enabled on your Sirius/XM account, but if you do then you're in.

Small, useful, works find. Give it a try.
