Hacking Windows 7 Media Center

New ‘Platform’ Media Center Theme

by @ 3:29 pm on July 8th, 2011 in themes with 14 Comments

Greetings internet denizens and media center fans! I realize it’s been quite some time since the last update but today there’s a new media center theme available for download. Thanks to Jason Benjamin of perfecthue.com for allowing the conversion of his work over into Windows 7 Media Center themes. This particular theme is based on the Platform wallpaper available on his site. Hopefully this means I’ll have more themes available in the near future as well but for now, enjoy!

platform music menu

DOWNLOAD PLATFORM THEME

Installing this theme requires Windows 7 Media Center and Media Center Studio, a free media center theme creation application. Once you’ve downloaded the zip file extract the .mct file inside to a location of your choice. Open Media Center Studio and select the themes tab then select Import Theme. Locate the file and import the theme into the program. Select the newly imported theme from the listing and hit Apply. The theme will be applied the next time media center is started.

Again, don’t forget to head over to perfecthue.com and check out more wallpapers from the same artist and grab a few for your desktop. Also, thanks again to Jason for allowing the use of his fine workmanship!
