The Movies folder really needs some way of splitting out the folders. Having everything as one big list is practically unusable with a media remote control and big screen.
Primary issue with all in one view is when PowerDVD starts it insists on rescanning all the files instead of just a simple directory read this takes ages and I have less then 30 files across 5 folders of various types. The folders are across the network on fast disks and a reliable 1G link, even tested with 10G link and no improvement, bandwidth consumed reaches 500Mbps+ during load. Need a way to quickly refresh just one folder. As a file is added it should be immediately available to PowerDVD shouldn't need to either restart PowerDVD or wait a long time (seems over 30min) for the new file to be found. Don 't want to rescan every movie (i.e. restart PowerDVD) just to add a single new file.

Thank you, placing WTV folder into Movies is much more reliable ... why can't the Videos folder play Videos saved as Movies ?
I'll keep on eye on it in coming days to see if further problems.

Unfortunately tech support = hours and hours of my time instead of tech support doing the troubleshooting themselves.
In the meantime just use another player for .wtv files ... but the eminant demise of MediaCenter despite being one of the best players on the market means have to test alternatives.

There seems to be an annoying problem when playing back files recorded with MediaCenter .wtv
If you start to fast forward quickly up to 16x or 32x and then press play to resume normal playback if this is done too quickly i.e. you didn't mean to do it in the first place or only want to skip a few seconds anyway then the sound and video end up completely out of sync. The sound continues from when you started the fast forward the video resumes from the point after skipping.
This does not occur if you let the FF continue for a few seconds.
Even more annoying is that after having to stop the playback ( to fix the sync ) you cannot resume from place last played and have to go all the way back to the beginning.

Are there plans or a way similar to the ipad/android PowerDVD Remote client from a Windows 8.1 tablet or Windows phone 8.1
