I've just updated to Media Center 12 beta. The beta of Media Center works very well, but the TLB Media Control plugin doesn't support it all that well with the old player plugin.

Could support for Media Center 12 be added, please?

In case anyone wants to try using the Media Control plugin with Media Center 12 right now, here's what I found: I managed to get it "sort of working" by copying the following keys to the Media Center 12 subkey (rather than the Media Center 11 subkey, as shown):

Code:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\J. River\Media Center 11\Plugins\Interface\TLB Remote
Code:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\J. River\Media Center 11\Plugins\Interface\TLB Remote
I made sure that the latter key shown above had a DWORD value of Enabled, and that this was set to 1. I also ensured it had a DWORD of Active, also set to 1. I think Media Center 12 only looks at the Active value for this plugin (but seems to use Enabled for others...I don't know, don't ask me...). I didn't feel like testing it more.

I also changed the Path to player to C:\WINDOWS\system32\MC12.exe. I tried using the path to Media Center 12.exe, but it wouldn't work at all.

As it is, the Media Control plugin works with Media Center 12 beta, sort of... Once Media Center 12 starts, if I click the play button on the Media Control, there's a delay, but it eventually works... Sometimes. Not always.
