Control Windows Media Center using a Windows Mobile 5 Device

An article of mine was recently published in MSDN's online blog Coding4Fun:

http://blogs.msdn.com/coding4fun/archive/2007/05/14/2632164.aspx

The article demonstrates how to use a smartphone running Windows Mobile 5 to remotely control a host machine running Windows Media Center.  The article includes the following topics:

  • Create an add-in application that runs within Windows Media Center
  • Create a Windows Mobile 5 application to communicate with the Media Center add-in
  • Use the implementation to manipulate Media Center via the Windows Media Center API

Feel free to post feedback here.  I can also be reached via email.
