michaeltal Posted March 6, 2004 Share Posted March 6, 2004 (edited) I have just looked through the windows directory of the new 4053 Longhorn build, and I think i have found something interesting. :woot: (I don't know if this is already known, but it was new to me :p ) Longhorn seems to have a new Media Player which can be found at C:\windows\i386\floatingplayer.exe Longhorn Media PLayer Have fun with it!

Schmoove Posted March 6, 2004 Share Posted March 6, 2004 Even for an alpha or beta version it looks horrible. Besides that.... why?, why are they making it? Can't they just use WMP in Longhorn? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B.B. Posted March 6, 2004 Share Posted March 6, 2004 does anyone know if it would be possible to run it on XP, or wouldnt it be compatible enough? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tran Posted March 6, 2004 Share Posted March 6, 2004 Hm... Looks fugly. Like Schmoove said, can't they just use WMP? Or is that supposed to be WMP when Longhorn comes out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlishFun Veteran Posted March 7, 2004 Veteran Share Posted March 7, 2004 Anyone else think that looks like the Windows Media Floating Player intergrated in Internet Explorer 6 SP1 on Windows XP? BTW, it also plays nothing, unless connected to a server via IE. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
