The current version of Media Center Master is 2.14. Version 1.32 has been used for many the examples in the wiki, so beware that some of the options may be expanded or look different than various screen shots.

Official/Unofficial Wiki Pages Most of the content on the wiki was written by fans and users like yourself. If a page is marked as Official, then the content was written with official information (usually by the software author).

Debug...

Debug is developer - level debug messaging. It provides a deeper level of logging for determining the cause creating a problem. The messaging is enabled by the user, and is viewed in the log window. It will also be listed in the log text file, if the Application Menu>Log all output to a file...>Log to file option is enabled.

Show developer-level debug messaging

When a user seeks assistance through the forum involving certain circumstances, Pete may ask the user to turn this option on, enable it, and supply a portion of the "Log Viewing Pane (shown below)," or from the "Log File."

Log auto-update attempts to disk

The "Auto-update Log File" is a text file containing a log of the auto-update process. It is not viewable in the "Log Viewing Pane" in that the processing is done before the user interface is opened. Should a user need assistance with an auto-update problem and post a topic in the forum, this log file can be used by Pete to assist the user in resolving the problem.

Enabling the "Log auto-update attempts to disk" option will allow Media Center Master to create a text file named, AutoUpdate.log, and store it in Media Center Master's hidden user folder. Media Center Master will only create one auto-update log file, and will continue to add logging information to the one file.

Auto-update Log Location

The AutoUpdate.log file can be found through:

Windows XP at C:\Documents and Setting\username\Application Data\Peter Souza IV\Media Center Master (shown in above example)

Windows 7 and Vista at C:\User\username\%AppData%\Roaming\Peter Souza IV\Media Center Master

Or, it can be quickly accessed in Media Center Master through:
