Vista Tip 27: Start Media Center in a Specific View

Wed, 2008-02-27 20:00 by Jens Schaller

If you don't like the view in which Vista Media Center starts up by default, you can change that using some command line parameters:

Parameter	Behavior
ehshell.exe /directmedia:general	Starts VMC in fullscreen mode
ehshell.exe /directmedia:music	Starts VMC in fullscreen mode and navigates to the Music Library
ehshell.exe /directmedia:video	Starts VMC in fullscreen mode and navigates to the Video Library
ehshell.exe /directmedia:tv	Starts VMC in fullscreen mode and navigates to the TV Recordings
ehshell.exe /directmedia:pictures	Starts VMC in fullscreen mode and navigates to the Picture Library
ehshell.exe /directmedia:discplayback	Starts VMC in fullscreen mode and starts playing a CD or DVD inserted into the drive.
