how to use LAME with WMP?

mitodna

All of the registry settings are in one of the KB articles around support.microsoft.com somewhere. Download LameACM (It must be ACM) and try to get it to work. In my testing WMP uses 300MB of RAM, and hangs. It does encode the MP3's, but it's not what you want to hear when you play them back.

can i have features request? map the middle scroll to control the sound volume?

Sure, anyone can request anything. the only issue with that is how would you then scroll in the library or the media guide?

(I don't work for MS, i've just been beta testing WMP 10 before all of your guys)

You rip the Mp3 the same way you have in the other versions, purchase the encoder and install it.

:o I don't want to open a new thread for this so please can anybody help me with this one?

1st. Can you (unlike Media Player 9) uninstall this one?

2nd. It disturbed me a lot that in Windows Media Player 9 in Full Screen when you moved the mouse it would resize the video image,

that didnt happen with the Media Player 8 (xp) . You could move your mouse and the control menu would show up but with no re-sizing.

a) Is there a way to stop that stupid resizing at every move

b) Happens that resize thing (in full screen video mode) also with media player 10 ?

thanks for that help

resizing seems to be fixed!

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.

Nevermind. They added lyrics display like WMP9 displayed the synched lyrics. I like this. Now they just need to add a lyrics database so Media Player can just download them to the song.

How do you get it to show lyrics? I came across the option earlier but can't find it now.

      It's funny that iPhone users think they are getting feature, where in fact they are getting cosmetics that just do iteration circles of "improvement" of the said cosmetics. Apple just doesn't know what to do with this product anymore. There is no innovation on this areas anymore.

      You can disable the bloat on every browser. That's not the point. I will never use a browser of a shady company. I don't trust them at all. I can still find adblocking solutions than having to rely on a browser from a shady company.

    • Alpine Linux 3.24 released with support for COSMIC Desktop and other improvements

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      Alpine Linux 3.24 released with support for COSMIC Desktop and other improvements by David Uzondu Alpine Linux 3.24 has been released with updated system packages, including Linux kernel 6.18 and Rust 1.96. The team also added IPv6 support to the system installer, and they introduced automatic serial console configuration for headless setups. System76's COSMIC desktop environment is now available in the community repo. System76 originally started building this DE because its developers found GNOME to be pretty limited. Plus, it did not help that with virtually every GNOME update, the changes broke System76's custom desktop extensions. As for system packages, the Alpine team moved GTK+ 3.0 from the main repository to the community repository due to its legacy status. py3-setuptools has been upgraded to version 82.0.0, while the old pkg_resources module has been completely dropped. The team also removed outdated packages that still relied on py3-six and GTK+ 2.0. In addition to that, libsoup 2 has been removed because the library was affected by multiple security vulnerabilities. If you're a GRUB user, the Alpine Team said that you must manually run the grub-install command with your specific device or EFI options right after upgrading your system, otherwise, your computer may fail to boot properly with the newly updated GRUB 2.14 bootloader. New installations of Alpine Linux now offer an optional path to a /usr-merged directory layout if you set the BOOTSTRAP_USR_MERGED environment variable to 1 before you execute the setup-disk command. If you already run an older installation, you can migrate manually by installing the merge-usr package and executing its binary as the root user. The team recommends this layout to align Alpine with modern Linux standards, though you should verify your custom scripts before making the switch. Alpine Linux is a pretty tiny (~5MB) Linux distro built around musl libc, BusyBox, and OpenRC. It's been around since 2005, comes with its own package manager called Alpine Package Keeper (APK), and is widely used in modern cloud computing and software deployment.
