change in new version of WR...

Hey Shane,

Why did you change those 4 service defaults to auto in the new version of WR?  Shouldn't they be manual by default?

Shane:
Had 4 people email me (Pretty mad to) That thier media services wouldn't work. (They didn't know how to turn them back to auto)

Turns out that when you use the media in windows it changes them from the default of manual to auto.

I tested on my machine and found that windows did change them to auto. And having them to auto seems to not hurt anything. So I had to go with that to cover the people who use those services. :wink:

What media in windows?  I just opened up Windows media player - those services are still on manual.  I then opened Windows Media Center - same thing, those services are still set to manual.  This is on Win7 by the way.

edit - I don't even have the Windows Media Center Service Launcher service.

friedmonky:
Those services are supposed to work in manual.  That's why that is their default state.  :confused:

Shane:
No I checked. When you enabled the streaming and sharing in the media center it changed them to auto.

The people who had them set to manual could no longer stream to other devices or share on their network from media center, such as their xbox and other computers.

When the services where put back to auto and running everything worked.

I tested on mine (Windows 7 64 bit) and when I setup the sharing the services where changed.

Media extender is what changes it.
