Media Center add-in: Postion Changer (vista) by Stephen Toub

This add-in lets you move (relative or absolute) to a location in a recorded video:
from http://blogs.msdn.com/toub/archive/2007/01/03/position-changer-add-in-updated-for-windows-vista.aspx:
"using the add-in is pretty straightforward. While viewing or listening to media, press the right arrow on the remote or keyboard. Then enter the time you want to jump to (123 for 1 minute 23 seconds, 1053 for 10 minutes 53 seconds, etc.) and press enter. Pressing the left arrow instead of the right arrow makes the jumps relative instead of absolute."

Instructions for installation:
1.Copy the contents of the debug folder to \Program Files\MCE\Position Changer Add-In 2.Open a command window with administrative privliges 3.cd \windows\ehome 4.fsutil hardlink create PositionChangerAddIn.dll "\Program Files\MCE\Position Changer Add-In\PositionChangerAddIn.dll" 5.cd "\Program Files\MCE\Position Changer Add-In" 6."\windows\ehome\RegisterMCEApp.exe" /allusers "PositionChangerAddInReg.xml" 7.Restart all of your Media Center Sessions... I can't take credit for this ... http://unmitigatedrisk.com/archive/2007/03/17/38.aspx cna however. And I can confirm it works :D Great little plugin :)
