WMP10 Public

[one321]

Anyone able to display lyrics? I have several WMAs that have lyrics and I cannot figure out how to display them with v10

[slowestborg]

Synchronized lyrics work fine here. Haven't given static lyrics a go yet.

I'm running WMP 10 now on my Windows XP box and it looks more like WMP 9 with a new strange skin. It doesn't fit in with the standard Windows XP look at all, it's all shiny and stuff and Luna isn't anything like that. But that you can rip cd's in mp3 format now is cool(iTunes could already do that so it's not a new cool fantastic thing, but okay). And I don't like the fact that there are 3rd party music stores integrated in it that you can't change (as far I know of). I hope Microsoft includes some more updates than this, and some new cool skins. I just know that they can do better than this! :D

XP_2003, is l3codeca.acm or l3codecp.acm in C:\Windows\System32?? Ripping into the MP3 format will _not_ be included. You must pay Fraunhofer for the encoder first.

thanks

Is there a directshow decoder for it? No, it does not support adding them to the library with tags, but you can play anything with a directshow filter installed.

Yeah, I can't get it to display static lyrics. Damn...you must take forever to do synched lyrics!

hmmm I thought that someone over here said that you could rip cd's in mp3 format. Haven't done it myself yet, since I have my whole mp3 collection on my mac ;)

[Zero1]

They seem to have made all of the lyrics, artist info, etc subscription based now.. so you can only view lyrics (as far as i've seen) via a plugin such as SongWriterWMP or via the advanced tag editor which is very small.

will it play divx?

As soon as you pay FhG (really you are paying Intervideo, cyberlink, etc - but's it's Fraunhofer encoder) for the encoder you can rip CD's, but this will not be included in any realease of the player.

will it play divx?

Sure, why not. Just install the DivX codec or any other Dshow deocder that does DivX.

If you have l3codecp.acm that means you have pirated software installed! You should have l3codeca.acm, that's the standard decoder. l3codecp.acm is pure pirated crap.

Q. Where did the Radio Tuner go?

A. To access radio stations, click Guide, and then click Radio. (You must be connected to the Internet to use the Guide feature.)

anyone get this installed in the new sp2 beta? won't work for me and someone else.

[Samoa]

thanks for the linkage. I've had the older build for a while :whistle:

I find fewer problems with WMP8 than with 9. I hate Windows protection crap.

[trad]

oo, lucky, i did not have priated stuff it scared me

it is

l3codeca.acm 284kb

l3codecx.ax 96kb

so it is not ending with the "p"

"a" is the standard decoder means i cant encode anything?

thank you

mitodna

[cal2002]

Correct. You should have the two you listed, and WMP encoding should not work or be enabled. If you would like it to be enabled you just would have to purchase the encoder, or get LameACM (Pleas do! I can't get it too) to work right.

Great! It would be so annoying trying to view the lyrics with the advanced tag editor. They better bring some lyrics functionality back before the final release.

I don't understand you sorry.:blush:

But that's too bad that you'll need 3rd party programs to rip cd's in mp3 format under Windows :(. But I'm sure they'll have their reasons :ninja:

According to the newsgroups, - i wouldnt ;) and its not advised, possibly because it doesnt work :p

Becuase they don't OWN it! Sounds like a good one to me. If you can rip Cd's in WMp you already have a pirated encoder installed or you have purchased and install the true rip pack at some point. It's not there from this beta install, it can't be.

[trad]

ok, so which mp3 encoder is better, there are 3 vendor there

Maybe there will be a new MS signed theme to go along with SP2 that will match? *wishful thinking* :unsure:
