You can use MC's zones to serve media to several clients, even playing different media at the same time. Media Center will work with thousands of TVs, Blu-ray players, receivers, and other devices that support the DLNA protocol. You can also use a PS3 or an Xbox 360. The remote control is easy. Media Center supports any remote with a Green Button, and most other remotes can be programmed to work. JRiver sells a Media Center Remote that is certain to work straight out of the box. Media Center can automatically convert audio and video streams for client playback when your connection isn't fast enough to play unconverted media. Setup is simple. Just use Media Center on your server to generate a six-character access key. Then enter that key on any client you want to use. A test mode can use JRiver's servers to test whether access from outside your network will work.

HTPC (Home Theater PC)
A Home Theater PC is a computer that is connected to a television, a projector, or an audio-video receiver for the purpose of watching video or television from across the room. Think Couch Potato. This requires what is called a "ten-foot" interface or GUI so that the person on the other side of the room can read it well enough to control it. Media Center's ten-foot view is called Theater View. A remote is usually used so that the viewer can remain on the couch. JRiver supports several kinds. Media Center has a ten-foot interface called Theater View. It's drawn with 3D graphics so it has a nice elastic feel. It's also configurable, so you can remove portions you don't use, or move things around to suit your taste. Background graphics give it additional appeal. Theater View is touch screen friendly.

Images
J. River Media Center for Windows PC is a powerful way to store and view your photos. Plug a camera in, wait a few seconds for Windows to find it, and click Acquire in the Action Window.
