The MCEBuddy software uses the mcebuddysvc.exe process as one of its EXE application resources for implementing some of its embedded multimedia functionalities into Windows-based systems, particularly Media Center editions of Windows XP, Vista and Windows 7. Upon installation of the MCEBuddy application into these Windows-based Media Center computers, the mcebuddysvc.exe file is integrated into the system alongside other executable program files, certain DLL (Dynamic Link Library) modules, some SYS driver utilities, specific system and background process items among other component files and libraries that are used and referenced by Microsoft Windows Media Center and the MCEBuddy program to implement its video recording features into the system. The MCEBuddy software can also allow users to get rid of advertising banners included in video streams from this automated Windows service. The mcebuddysvc.exe process is bundled into the installer distribution packages of the MCEBuddy software and is specifically deployed as one of the component executable resource files of the MCEBuddy Service module, which is an applet built into the MCEBuddy software.
