Become an installer

When joining the System Builder program, System Builders and System Integrators (referred to as System Builders) can pre-install "My Movies" on their Windows Media Center or Windows Home Server products - only registered System Builders may pre-install "My Movies". There is a $250 signup fee to cover registration costs.

The program provides the option for System Builders to offer "My Movies" as a service to their customers, with the System Builders logo appearing on the about page of "My Movies" as an official registered installer. The version of "My Movies" installed by System Builders is the same as the one installed by the end-user themselves, and it can be upgraded with the normal upgrade procedure without losing the installer information.

When you, as a System Builder, join the program you will receive an installation XML file to install on your systems - this installation XML will contain information about your company, a license code, and will optionally be matched with a company logo.

System Builder installations does not require a user account, and does not have any product limitations - all product features are unlocked with the System Builder license key.

System Builder Benefits

As a registered System Builder, you get different benefits over the general "My Movies" users.

No point prompts
General My Movies installations will prompt the user for points, and will feature a point purchase button within the program. These buttons will be removed on all System Builder installations.

No program limitations
Different functionalites in My Movies require a specific amount of purchased points or contribution points to unlock full potential. There is no such requirement in System Builder installations.

Program Logos
An installation made by a System Builder lists the System Builders name in the about page of the program, along with a logo, and on the Collection Management program, the System Builders logo is displayed on the about and the start splash screen as an official installer. 

Official Installer List
The System Builders has the option to be mentioned on a list of installers on the "My Movies" website, to let users know who they can contact to purchase Media Centers pre-installed with "My Movies". The end-user can use this list to see which System Builders support the development of "My Movies", and they can use the list to see which Media Centers to purchase to be sure they work well with "My Movies". 

E-mail Support
If you need support that requires personal attention, in situations were you do not want other System Builders to see the communication, you have the option to get e-mail support. As all other support, e-mail support is free of charge.

Customer Support
Your customers can, as all "My Movies" users, get free support on the general support forum, so that you can either choose to support the customer directly yourself, or you can provide them with information on how to get support on the "My Movies" forum. If you find that one of your customers has a problem that requires special attention, you can provide us with contact information to the customer, and we will provide direct e-mail support for the customer's problem.

Feature Request Priority
Feature requests received from System Builders will get a higher priority than requests received by end-users. System Builder requests are prioritised based on how many units the System Builder can sell, and the requests are typically not single user requests, and therefore the requests can get a higher priority.
