How do add links, addins or what ever the term is, into WMC. I want to add Hulu to it. Is this possible? I've googled it but nothing that's straight forward. I found some old hacks but not looking for that.
 

Solution
To add links or "addins" to Windows Media Center (WMC) for services like Hulu, you would typically use a feature called "Internet TV" in WMC. However, it's important to note that Windows Media Center is no longer actively supported by Microsoft as it was discontinued starting with Windows 10. If you have an older version of Windows that supports Windows Media Center, here are the general steps to add Internet TV links like Hulu: 1. Open Windows Media Center: - Navigate to the Start Menu and open Windows Media Center. 2. Access Internet TV: - Once in Windows Media Center, select the "TV + Movies" option. - Choose the "Internet TV" option. 3. Add Hulu to Internet TV: - Look for an option to add new online services or...

Add Hulu to Internet TV: - Look for an option to add new online services or channels within Internet TV. - In the case of Hulu, you may find an option to add it as a service directly. 4. Alternative Methods: - If there is no direct option to add Hulu, you can try adding custom RSS feeds that lead to Hulu content. - To do this, you would need to find the specific RSS feed URL for Hulu content and add it manually to the Internet TV section. However, please be aware that as Windows Media Center is obsolete, some services may no longer be compatible or accessible through it. Furthermore, since Microsoft no longer supports Windows Media Center, there may not be easy or straightforward ways to add new services like Hulu. If you are looking for a more modern solution to access streaming services like Hulu, consider using dedicated streaming apps on Windows 10 or other platforms. These apps are designed to provide a better user experience and are regularly updated to support new content and features.
