Microsoft Media Center - Web News & Weather
Installation:
Unzip "MCE-SAMConsult.zip" in "c:/program files/MCE-SAMConsult".
Edit "Start Menu.reg" to modify "Mijn nieuws" to whatever you like.
Double click on: "Start Menu.reg" to add Web News to the Start Menu of MCE, if you want Web News under "More Programs", use the "Web News.mcl" file. Place it in the "C:/Documents and Settings/All Users/Start Menu/Programs/Accessories/Media Center/Media Center Programs" directory. "Web News.mcl" can be edited in Notepad.
Run "MSVBVM50.EXE" to install the VB5 runtime files.
Double click on: "SAMConsult.reg" to register "SAMConsult.dll", you can first use regsvr32.exe to register and later double click on the "reg" file.
Double click on: "WebNews.reg" to add 70 newsfeeds of BBC, CNN, Reuters, Elsevier and Nieuws.nl, plus My Weather and Satellite Animations.
The total number of news feeds or menu items is unlimited and news feeds and menu items can be mixed.
A menu item can be any html page or url, but within MCE its preferably a hosted html application. As an example a Menu page is added to Miscellaneous, with which you can reach all the menu items of MCE (this is part of the MCE SDK, but in MCE style).
Web News works well on MCE 2005 (1280x768) and also on Windows XP (1280x1024) without MCE.
Web News has filters for BBC, CNN, Reuters, Elsevier & Nieuws.nl.
Web News can also be used as an alternative menu system.
My Weather is based on information of The Weather Channel.
After installation you can fully customize Web News to your own needs.
