Windows XP Media Center Edition (codename eHome) is a version of Windows XP designed to serve as a home-entertainment hub. The latest version, Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005, was released on October 12, 2004.

Windows XP Media Center Edition (XP MCE) is distinguished from other versions of Windows XP by an exclusive preinstalled application, Media Center, which provides a large-font (???10-foot???), remotely accessible interface for TV recording and playback, DVD playback, video playback, photo viewing, and music playback. Also, Windows XP MCE uses the Royale (Energy Blue) theme by default, instead of Luna. The Royale theme can be downloaded for Windows XP Professional or Home versions from grawity???s web site

Although Media Center is based on Windows XP Professional, Microsoft has disabled its ability to join an Active Directory domain. This effectively precludes the use of Media Center in a corporate environment. Media Center still retains most other Windows XP Pro-specific features, such as Remote Desktop and the Encrypting File System.

Because of strict hardware requirements, Microsoft has opted not to sell Media Center as an independent retail version. Microsoft only distributes it to MSDN subscribers and OEM System Builders in certain countries. Consumers generally purchase Media Center preinstalled on a new computer, or from a reseller that sells OEM versions of Microsoft software.

As of Update Rollup 2, Media Center 2005 supports up to 4 tuners on a single computer (up to two analog tuners, and up to two HDTV tuners). It cannot, however, record more than two programs at any one time.

Microsoft has released its own first party remote, receiver and IR blaster with MCE 2005. A new specially designed wireless computer keyboard for MCE 2005 was released September 2005.

With version 2005, Microsoft has added support for Media Center Extenders???dedicated hardware devices that allow users to view the same content that is available on the MCE computer over wired or wireless Ethernet. Linksys and other companies currently sell Media Center Extenders, and Microsoft sells an add-on kit for the Xbox game console that allows it to function as an extender. The Xbox 360 also has Media Center Extender functionality out of the box, including HDTV support (which is notably absent from current extenders). Media Center 2005 currently can support up to 5 Media Center Extenders per household.
