lol ...

I was just having a fit with Media Center that's all.

I think it sucks every way I look at it. Performance, features, looks. But the biggest fit I'm having is with MP3's. geesh, is it that hard to use ID3 tags the way they were invented? It's screwing up artists' names for album names or just doesnt' know the album name. But when I go to artist the album is listed so it does know it. Just going in and out of the list is enough for MCE to change its mind and screw up something else. it's buggy as hell and I hate it. And don't tell me my ID3 tags are not correct 'cos I know they are correct. Every other program I uses works fine using them.

See, I'm happy know.  jester.gif

I agree windows media connect is the biggest load of time wasting anybody could attempt. it's driven me barmy as you can probably tell by the opening tone of this post. name me one other device that needs a win reinstall and even at that it doesnt run properly. Has commercialism and consumerism  really started to give us unfinished software products sold to us as finished (but might need a wee patch here or there!) its ridiculous. How can these companys sell us stuff as the next big thing have us waitin and waitin for it then when we pay through the nose it aint fully finished or properly tested. ok heres one for eg: when ghost recon 2 came out i bought it £40. but when on live i couldnt scroll down my friends list n stuff it was so annoying i decided not to play it again until a patch came out to fix it, by time it came out it was £20 in shops!!!!!!! thats the kind of thing im talkin bout costs me £40 and i get an unfinished program but dont buy it for a month or two and you get a finished game for half the price can someone explain that logic for me cause i just cant get it mx vs atv unleashed too tryin to get into a game lobby is unbelievably difficult it just kicks you out each time and gives you some network error message thing, which is rubbish as you just keep joining and trying and eventually you will get in (but im talkin like 25-100 mins continuous trying) and still no patch or fix. its got worse and worse as the last few years have passed, it used to be that if software was released onto the marketplace and was unfinished and had bugs you would hear about it and it would affect sales but nowadays all these companies and publishing monthlys or whatever are all in league with each other official or unofficial and this windows media connect thing im givin up on it cause i think even if you had a flawless install and your 360 and pc can see each other itll prob give more hasstle than its worth, and its not like keepin tryin will teach u sumthin your just lookin for answers in that regard not explanations that let you understand whats actually happening when youre trying stuff eg: hacking.
anyway win media connect dont waste your life on it you only have 3 score years and 10....... if youre lucky!
