WMP 10 is Released


Recommended Posts

i really like the player but when i open a folder or something the cpu usage goes up to 100%..:crazy:

Got DivX?

DivX is know to create such high CPU usage.

There are some instructions on the DivX forum pages.

In addition delete the following key contents

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\System FileAssociations\.avi\shellex\PropertyHandler

Close IE & WMP.

Goto Control Panel->Internet Options->Delete File...

Check 'Delete all offline content'

Click OK.

Restart WMP

Nope. Still fuxored. Pretty sad they don't have a option to give feedback.

Other thing that just happened, 20 things just got added to favorites. Glad I have SpySweeper.

Just installed final release and all I can say is......where did my Radio go?!!!! :huh:

If you ever find out, let me know too.... :unsure:

Just found:

1.14 Where did the Radio Tuner feature go?

Windows Media Player 10 no longer has a Radio Tuner feature. Instead, to locate radio stations, click Guide, and then click Radio Tuner. You must be connected to the Internet to use the Guide feature. You can also register with an online store to access radio services.

Radio stations are no longer displayed in the library in Windows Media Player 10. Radio stations that were in the library prior to updating to Windows Media Player 10 are not retained.

Well that's now useless to me then. I'm damned if I'm going to go through the crap guide just for radio. Back to Winamp....

Where does WMP10 get the files from for the album art for the Energy Bliss visualisation?

My album art works for the Album Art visualisation, but I just get an image of a blank CD case for the Energy Bliss visualisation.

Has anybody got this to work? If so, where is your album art located, and what is the filename?

The one problem that I seem to be having is whenever I insert an audio CD to rip, MP10 pulls in the song info, but not the cover art. I then try to update the media info, and the album art show up in update screen, but when I click on finish to update the media info, still no album art. Anyone have a workaround for this issue? I know this was a major issue in the preview, but it's still doesn't seems to be fixed.

Thanks.

To answer my own question above, this is how WMP10 stores album art when ripping CD's:

AlbumArt.jpg

...which is fine for CD's that I rip in the future, but what about the 100's I've already ripped?

The album art filename which WMP10 generates seems to be unique, how can I add album art?

I already have a JPEG image called "Folder.jpg" in each of my album folders.

-EDIT- Not sure what Photobucket has done, but it seems to have screwed up the colours in my screenshot.

    • Most boring game ever. Repetitive, empty, predictable, and full of cliches. Total waste of time and money, IMO.
    • Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe During Summer Game Fest, 2K and Hanger 13 brought out a new Mafia: The Old Country trailer, revealing the game's first expansion. Named Man of Honor, this is slated to add two new chapters to the Enzo storyline that the game follows. There is an iconic character returning to the series with this expansion, with players set to run into Ennio Salieri, the future Don of the Salieri crime family. Fans of the original Mafia, or its Definitive Edition remake, may remember that name as one of the biggest characters in the storyline. This expansion is set prior to his rise to being the kingpin in the City of Lost Heaven. "Set in Sicily during the winter of 1905, Enzo Favara has proven himself a reliable soldier of the Torrisi crime family in the months since his initiation," says the studio about the new chapters. "Now, the Don entrusts him and Cesare with a delicate assignment of assisting Ennio Salieri, a man of honor recently released from prison and intent on reclaiming what is his." Working at Salieri's side, players will be heading into fresh environments as they return to the role of Enzo as a high-ranking soldato. The studio also promises brand-new weapons, fresh vehicles, and charms to collect in this expansion. Moreover, the expansion will add new content to the updated Free Ride mode. Alongside new collectibles and locations, this will add more challenges to beat alongside Salieri, which are described as runs that will "test the skills of even the most elite mafiosi." The Mafia: The Old Country Man of Honor story expansion will release on August 14, 2026, across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. It will cost $10 for owners of the base game to jump into.

    • Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Telltale Games, the studio known for its episodic games from the 2000s, had a surprise appearance at the Summer Game Fest showcase today. The studio has gone through a collapse, an acquisition, and a revival but has largely gone silent in recent years. Today's sudden announcement was for the popular The Wolf Among Us series, with news about the sequel and a remaster dropping. Set after the events of the 2013-released title, the sequel will bring back Biby Wolf for a new adventure in Fabletown. This town of fairy tale characters is becoming unstable, with Snow White not being able to keep order as before. "When a brutal series of crimes threatens to fracture the fragile balance holding Fabletown together, Bigby Wolf, sheriff of Fabletown, finds himself drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that reaches deep into the city’s criminal underworld," says the studio. "As suspicion spreads across the city and powerful forces work against him, Bigby must uncover the truth and decide what kind of sheriff - and what kind of wolf - he is willing to become." At the same time, Telltale also announced The Wolf Among Us Remastered, bringing back the classic with a fresh coat of paint. This will include all five episodes from the original game plus over an hour of extra content that will offer behind-the-scenes videos, cast interviews, image galleries, and deleted scenes. The remaster will also have updated visuals and improved UI elements and accessibility features, alongside upgrades to the animations, audio, and frame rates. Telltale has been working on this project for almost a decade now, but if the new release schedule holds, fans will be able to jump into The Wolf Among Us 2 sometime in 2027. As for The Wolf Among Us Remastered, this is slated to release during this holiday season.
