Entry Point Registration XML Reference

Windows Media Center exposes XML elements that are used to add a tile for your application to the Windows Media Center Extras Library. You can add your application to Windows Media Center by passing XML code to the ApplicationContext.RegisterApplication method or by using the RegisterMCEApp.exe command-line tool. Older applications use XML code in Media Center link (MCL) files, which are deprecated. This section describes the XML elements used to add applications to Windows Media Center.

application Specifies the path to your application and sets several application attributes.
capabilitiesRequired Specifies the capabilities that are needed to successfully run your application.
