Identifying a Media Center Extender Session
Because a Media Center Extender device has a slightly different set of capabilities than the host computer, it may be necessary to detect whether the user is accessing your application from a Media Center Extender session.
The best way to determine whether the user is on the host computer or the Media Center Extender device is by using the MediaCenterEnvironment.Capabilities property—the value for "console" returns false for an Extender. If "intensiverendering" returns true, the user is using an Xbox 360 as an Extender.
