eBay listings coming soon to Media Center
Published March 3, 2005 by Ed Bott
In the comments to my TiVo versus MCE versus Cable post, Christoph Bünger sends along this teaser to his upcoming eBay plug-in for Media Center:
mceAuction will include:
- Search auctions
- View auctions with images and description
- Bid on auctions
- ‘Buy Now’ support
- My eBay (”Items I’m Watching”, “Items I’m Bidding On”, “Items I’ve Won”, “Items I Didn’t Win”,”Items I’m Selling”, “Items I’ve Sold” + “Unsold Items”)
All “after auction handling” has to be made with normal browser. all things are “read-only” (Except the bidding-part of the application, that is real user-interaction with eBay).
The plugin will be officially eBay-certified and proofed. It comes with multilingual support (english and german at release, more languages when someone translates them for me), installation/deinstallation.
This one has the potential to be a real winner. Christoph’s other add-ins are first-rate. If you use MCE, the mceWeather add-in is a must-have.

Ebaying the Media Center Way
We’ve told you about the ability to surf eBay over your TiVo. Now, MCESoft.com is working on an eBay plug-in for Media Center. The plug in will let you: – Search auctions – View auctions with images and description -…
Next good news: the complete new version 2.0 of mceAuction just got the “eBay Star Developer Award for Innovative Application” at the eBay Developer Conference in Las Vegas.
It’s worth taking a deeper look at the 2.0: there are plenty of new features like notifications and Google Maps support for item’s location.
greetings
