A few people have asked me about how I do Pandora and integrate TMT5 menus so I made a quick video of my setup. Id love to help answer any questions.

Like the new splash screen for TMT5. That looks really good. How did you set up Pandora and the other websites?

to add website icons inside wmc:

these are the basic instructions i used. the exact location of the Media Center Programs was not the same on my installation as in that guide but it was close enough I was able to find it.

Even with the code tag I was having trouble posting mine here.[ pandora.txt 0k .txt file


pandora.png 8k .png file

rename the .txt file to .mcl

Did you use Media Center Studio to move the applications from the Extras strip to the Movies/Music/TV strips?

yep. it took me a while to figure it out but i got it. thats also how i changed the icon for the media browser movie collection and put it in place of the default movie library. changing the icon is also possible in the registry which ive done before as well

COOL VID!!
I definitely like the xfinity on demand in the TV menu. How easy is it to use Media Center Studio and to edit in the changes to the Menus you have done?

So does Pandora and Xfinity OD need a mouse and keyboard to navigate or can it be done with the handheld WMC remote?

you might be able to map the tab and spacebar buttons to a wmc remote. i use a lenovo keypad with trackball so i never tried that much. i know you can navigate ie with a remote, just someone clumsily. pandora starts playing for me automatically, so as long as the station you want was the last one playing you should not have any problem.

navigating the program isnt very intuitive at first but you get the hang of it. you basically drag and drop icons where you want them.
