I got everything to work except when adding network drives (unc paths) the network drives are only visible from Media Center directly. When you use a media extender you only see local drives.. You can’t see mapped drives via drive letters nor the UNC paths I manually added.. I don’t understand why Microsoft makes this hard on us… We should be able to simple browse folders?! Mapped folders also… I guess uPNP is the only way to go.

I got it working. The fix was to simply un-check the default “My Music” location at the top (all my music was in a different folder anyway). This plugin is just what I needed for my non-metadata-ed music.

I have MediaBrowser 2.1.3 installed, but the above menu .reg hack didn’t do anything. Any ideas on how to add it to a more visible menu?

I have Win7-Pro (32 bit). The newer version you link to will install on Win7. The config. part runs, but if I try to Save settings (or Reset to Default) , I get get a box saying “Invalid Application”. Never did see the actual program run.

I really need this for simple music folder view/play. Thanks and cool site!

It is working now, great. But I do not have the media browser icon in basic MC strip. Is it some way how to make it? I used the reg file, but nothing. Thx

I had issues with getting this app to work in Windows 7, there is a post on the project website in ref to issues with installing on Win7.

It provides a link to a fixed msi package from Mikinho
