Putting on a New Face

We decided it was time to update the face we present to the world, so we've spruced up our website a bit.   We needed to do more to show off what we can do with this incredible set of applications, and let people know what a fantastic community of users and developers we have here.

Media Browser Kinect has never been easier.

The Latest Release Date: Saturday, March, 1, 2014   Speech Training is still very important for Media Browser Kinect. I have attempted to write the application to need no speech training, however the Speech recognizer could not handle the number of commands it takes to run Media Browser. So we'll stick with the current one.   You can visit the NUI Thread to get the Download. http://mediabrowser.tv/community/index.php?/topic/850-media-browser-nui-natural-user-interface-kinect/     LED C

New Server Beta Released

This is a big one, and it's all about giving you finely grained control of what your server is doing. Let's get to the changes:   First, the warning:   This release will re-scan your library. Please be patient. Also review your user library sharing because you may need to reconfigure some of them. Finely grained control over metadata settings. Choose where your metadata comes from, prioritize internet fetchers, and choose what formats your metadata gets saved to. Local metadata is king.

IMPORTANT - Update to MBC 129

Another reminder that, before you update to the next beta server release, you must update MBC to version 3.0.129 or greater.   If you neglect to do this, you will not be able to enter MBC after the server update. MBC will produce an "Invalid Password" error upon entry. If you end up in this situation, either re-install from the web site or update via the Configurator.

MB Classic 127 Released

MB Classic Version 127 has been released to beta. This version includes several small fixes and tweaks to both the core and the default Chocolate theme but the biggest new feature, by far, is the ability to now manage your connection information and all plug-ins within MBC itself.   Administrative-level users will now have both a Plug-ins and Advanced tab in configuration. The configurator should now only be needed for external player setup.

Back cover images – enhance your media with THE WHOLE COVER

MediaBrowser 3 has a new theme launching very soon – Aztec. But this is no ordinary theme.   For the first time ever, you don’t just see the front covers of all the movies on your HTPC – you see the back covers too, beautifully animated. All the detail about every movie, just like you see on a DVD or Blu Ray case.       The folks at FanArt.tv may soon be adding full cover scans – front, back and spine – to the already extensive selection of images and artwork.
