#PlayTo Tools#

Dot-sourced library of cmdlets to tinker with PlayTo in Windows 8/RT

##Requirements##

• Windows 8 x64

##Install##

1. Start an elevated Powershell instance
2. Set-ExecutionPolicy Unrestricted if necessary.
3. Dot source script
4. Call Suspend-CertifiedDeviceChecks to disable metadata signature checks
5. Call New-DeviceMetadata [-Install] <hardware ID> to generate metadata for the device needing certification

##Tips##

1. Use helper Get-MediaRenderers to list all DMRs on the network.
2. Expand the HardwareID property to get the entire device hardware ID string.

Get-MediaRenderers | Select -First 1 -exp HardwareID

##Uninstall##

1. Navigate to %ProgramData%\Microsoft\Windows\DeviceMetadataStore\en-US and delete all files suffixed with 00000ca710af. These are metadata packages created solely by this script.
2. Remove devices associated with the custom metadata
3. Re-add devices. Windows will automatically download new (or use default) metadata.

##Pull request ideas##

• Finish Windows RT support (will need restricted language workarounds)
• Add non-US locale support (if needed)
• (your idea here)
