Sometimes the simplest things are the most annoying to fix. In my case I cannet get the application icon set correctly after the application is compiled, installed in the GAC, and registered. The addin.xml file has the
imageUrl="\.AppIcon"
attribute in the <entrypoint> element. If I take that line out, I get the default application icon under VMCE's Online Media menu consisting of text on a bluish background. If I put that line back in, I get the wrong icon, in fact I get that smiliey face icon that is initially created when you create a new Presentation Layer project.
How o I get this set correctly? The application works, I just want the icon set correctly in the Online Media program grid.

hi ozbear:
I am also developing an addin for Vista Media Center as a WMC Presentation Layer application. I also occurred to this ploblem and fixed it already.
The advice as follows:
1. In the vista start menu run the "cmd" as admistrator;
2. run "regedit.exe";
3. then you can find your application in the "HK_LOCAL_MACHINE->SOFTWARE->Microsoft->windows->CurrentVersion->MediaCenter->Extensibility->EntryPoint->{EntryPointID};
4.select this entrypoinid and then you can modify the value of the "ImageUrl" in the right column;
ImageUrl = the full path where you place the file "AppIcon.png", of course whereever you can place it;
If you still have some problems, you can mali to me!
