Listening to music, watch videos, movies, photography, television and radio content with Windows Media Center
You can remote control all your media content from your smartphone. The advantage of Media Center Control relative to the normal operation is that the current play is not covered by the Media Center user interface, as long as you look for other content. Find interesting content while the other audience look on undisturbed. No need to turn the TV or display on to start listen to music.

Listening to music, watch videos and photography with Windows Media Player
If you don't use Windows Media Center, you can play just as well your files with the Windows Media Player. However, it is important to note that the Media Player can not play television content.

Easy and fast searching of music, video or TV content
Accessible at any time the search button can find your content quickly. Enter a search term and Media Center Control displays the results directly on your smartphone. Searching for an album title or a television program is easy with a particular actor out of hand.

Scheduling and playback of TV recordings
You can always schedule a recording with one fingertip. Just like you used to in the Windows Media Center. It supports single and series recording. You can configure recordings over the internet even when you are traveling. You will never miss a show again.

Fast connection via Bluetooth, WiFi, LAN, Internet
You can control all your media content from your smartphone. This is done automatically with either a bluetooth or network connection (eg WLAN/WiFi). The setup is simple and must be performed only once. If you want to use the recommended bluetooth connection, you need a computer with blueooth. If your PC isn't equipped with a bluetooth interface, it can be expanded with an inexpensive USB adapter. The advantage of a bluetooth connection is that little energy is needed and the connection remains even when the phone is idle. We therefore recommend the bluetooth connection to use. Connection via network needs more energy, but it is possible to remote control Windows Media Center or Windows Media Player over far distance. If you want even from another country. An internet connection and a router that has the appropriate port open, are a precondition for this.

If your computer is switched off and you connect via network, MCC is able to wake your computer with Wake-On-LAN. It works via internet also, if your router is supporting this.

Playlists
Playlists are supported. You can use your own or automatically created playlists. Media Center Control automatically creates playlists for videos. This allows videos consist of several parts to be viewed without interruption.

Sleeptimer
The Sleep Timer is easily accessible and programmable. Shortly before your computer shuts down or is put into standby, the Media Center Control reports again with you. Perhaps they'd still look a little further? No problem.

Volume down or pause on phone call
You can configure Media Center Control to pause - or reduce the volume - when you get an incoming call on your smartphone. So you can talk undisturbed.

MKV support
Normally MKV files don't appear in the media library. Media Center Control adds the support for MKV automatically. Of course, all other formats that Windows Media Player and Windows Media Center can play back are supported also.

Themes
Media Center Control supports themes. Select the surface design which you most like or create your own surface. The following three themes are shipped with Media Center Control.
