So I have MCE 2005 and its great. Bad thing is no DivX support. I can add a icon to open up the Divx playa but that doesnt have a cataloging feature like MCE does for mp3s and dvds.
Question: is there a know hack/plug-in for cataloging my divX files?
or
is their a similar front-end that i could use just for divXor .iso?
Are you serious about the DivX support? That sucks. You might try media portal. http://mediaportal.sourceforge.net/ or meedio http://www.meedio.com/ or some other.Quote:

try the divx codec and the AC3 codec. If Media Player supports it then MCE2005 does.
Thats all I use it for Divx, and DVD's.
I have MCE 2005 and it'll even play real and quicktime if you set it up right.
Thats not necessarily true, media player will play a number of badly written codecs that MCE does not. Since mce renders directly to a directx texture, the codec must be able to output a stream in a particular pixel format that MCE can convert to a directx texture in. I have run into this DivX problem myself before depending on the exact version / variant of the codec installed even though the files played fine in media player.Quote:
