Until there's a way to stop the muting of WMC also muting your entire ****ing PC, then it can whistle for it .
There is a way to mute WMC without muting the entire pc, requires a mouse though. Go to the sound icon on the bottom right of the desktop, select mixer and mute accordingly. Voila.
I have got in the habit of leaving it open most of the time and just muting things as I go along.
When running WMC bring up the mixer from the volume control in the system tray and you can individually change the volume of the various programs which use sound that are running at any given time - WMC included.
Not 100% ideal, but it is only 3 clicks.

Hi wonder_lander, for themes you'll want to check out Media Center Studio (it's in the OP somewhere) in conjunction with the nice customisation of Media Browser. I set both backgrounds the same for a 'seamless' transition into media browser from WMC. I can't remember what theme I'm using, it may be Vanilla? I can check at some point.
As for multiple tuners, I can't comment as I've only used DVB-T.
I don't use it at all tbh, I don't download/rip anything, just use the discs or watch stuff that was recorded by WMC via DVB-T. It was on a recommendation above. What mkv splitter are you using wonder_lander?
Avforums said:Next you need to manually register the mkv splitter from the MPC-HC standalone filters pack. Place the MatroskaSplitter.ax file in the root of your C: drive. Now you need to open an elevated command prompt. To get an elevated command prompt simply open your start menu and type “cmd” then press ctrl-shift-enter. Once inside type the following:
C:\Windows\system32\regsvr32 C:\MatroskaSplitter.ax
C:\Windows\sysWOW64\regsvr32 C:\MatroskaSplitter.ax, if using Win7 x64.
