The latest version of the very popular media aggregator for Windows Media Center has been released.

Media Browser

If like me you have a lot of recorded TV and movies on your Media Center you may be interested in using a media aggregator, which basically pulls down information, artwork and various other things about your content, and also displays it all in a very usable and friendly way.

Probably the one of the best applications out there is Media Browser, and the latest version, 2.2.4. has just been released.

I have been using Media Browser for a very long time and its one of the those applications that frankly I couldn’t do without!

The latest version includes:

  • The Media type is now retrieved from locally stored metadata.
  • Better support for using MyMovies and Media Browser side-by-side. The user can now set the preferred order of local artwork.
  • Watched status indicators are working normally again.
  • It is now possible to Clear the Cache from the Media Browser Configuration Wizard.
  • Various sort-order bugs for Media Collections have been fixed.
  • Lots of other bugs have been fixed.
  • You can use SQLite and share playstate settings & display settings.
  • Better rotating backdrop support. It is now possible to randomize the order in which they appear.
  • Using the custom entrypoints no longer results in a full library refresh.
  • Improved installer interface that can create optional shortcuts to Media Browser.
  • Overall performance increase due to various changes to the cache mechanism.
  • Last but not least, Media Browser can now be localized by theme developers and the community.
  • You can download it here: http://code.google.com/p/videobrowser/downloads/detail?name=MCE_Media_Browser_2_2_4.msi&can=2&q=

    Be aware that this release will need to re-build your entire item cache as changes were made that are not backward compatible. This may take some time the first time you enter MB with this version so be patient while everything re-builds.
