Media Center has higher hardware requirements than other editions of Windows XP. An unofficial method has been found to reenable the ability to join a domain in MCE 2005 but doing so will likely disable the Extenders installed on that computer, as said before. Apart from this, MCE 2005 still retains most of the other Windows XP Professional-specific features, such as Remote Desktop and the Encrypting File System, but that limitation effectively precludes its use in a corporate environment. Therefore, since MCE is targeted to home entertainment, Microsoft chose to completely disable MCE ability to join a domain for this type of users, while (reasonably) leaving this feature enabled for those who already used it in previous versions. Presumably, Microsoft introduced this limit because Media Center Extender devices, introduced in this version, rely on the Fast User Switching component, but this component must be disabled in order to join a domain, so using an extender and joining a domain on the same computer isn't apparently possible (although, according to an unconfirmed source, it seems that the Linksys MCE Extender works fine when installed on a computer joined to a domain).

Instead, if the installation of MCE 2005 is an in-place upgrade from a previous version already joined to a domain, this ability is retained, unless a user uses a Windows Media Center Extender: in this case, such ability is lost and cannot be reverted back again.

Joining a domain: in MCE 2005, Microsoft has disabled its ability to join an Active Directory domain post install.

A new specially designed wireless computer keyboard for MCE 2005 was released September 2005.

First party hardware: Microsoft has released its own first party remote, receiver and infrared blaster with MCE 2005.

Media Center 2005 currently can support up to 5 Media Center Extenders per household. The Xbox 360 also has Media Center Extender functionality out of the box, including HDTV support (which is notably absent from current extenders). Linksys and other companies currently sell Media Center Extenders, and Microsoft sells an add-on kit for the Xbox game console that allows it to function as an extender.

Media Center Extenders, dedicated hardware devices that allow users to view the same content that is available on the MCE computer over wired or wireless Ethernet, are introduced in this version for the first time.

SoundSpectrum's G-Force: a special edition is included as one of the music visualizations.

Microsoft Plus! Digital Media Edition: a number of applications not included in previous versions of MCE are now included.

Royale theme: not included in other editions of Windows XP, it is included and enabled by default.

Windows Media Player, upgraded to version 10.

Windows Movie Maker, upgraded to version 2.5 with new effects and transitions and support for DVD burning.

Consumers generally purchase Media Center preinstalled on a new computer, or from a reseller that sells OEM versions of Microsoft software. Microsoft only distributes it to MSDN subscribers and OEM System Builders in certain countries.

Unlike competing commercial DVR products, Microsoft does not charge a monthly subscription fee for its Media Center TV guide service.ĭue to strict hardware requirements, Microsoft has opted not to supply Media Center as an independent retail version. Windows XP Media Center Edition is distinguished from other editions of Windows XP by an exclusive preinstalled application, Media Center, which provides a large-font ("10-foot"), remotely accessible interface for TV viewing on the computer as well as recording and playback, DVD playback, video playback, photo viewing, and music playback.
