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.

    • Final Fantasy VII Remake Part 3 is getting a simultaneous release across PC and all consoles

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Final Fantasy VII Remake Part 3 is getting a simultaneous release across PC and all consoles by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Square Enix showed up to the Summer Game Fest presentation today with multiple trailers showing off its next chapter in the Final Fantasy VII Remake saga. The final chapter of this trilogy now has an official name too, with it being dubbed Final Fantasy VII Revelation, following up Final Fantasy VII Remake and Final Fantasy VII Rebirth from recent years. Vincent Valentine, Cid, Cloud, Barret, Tifa, and more showed up in the trailers as they battle against enemies, or 'Weapons,' from the final chapter. "As the world teeters on the brink of annihilation, the final battle against Sephiroth begins," says the trailer description. "A meteor mars the sky, monstrous planetary guardians wreak havoc across the globe, and the fires of war rage. Now, Cloud and his companions must stand against this chaos to not only decide the planet's fate, but bring a legendary conflict to its conclusion." Following the reveal trailer, the show also dropped some gameplay footage that shows off a new way to travel across the open world using the Highwind airship. Players will be able to swap characters on during battles, use tactical mode to synchronize with allies, and summon their entities. Cid Highwind and Vincent Valentine are joining the party this time too. “FINAL FANTASY VII, first released in 1997, has been beloved by fans for many years and has since become a “legend” in its own right," added producer Yoshinori Kitase. "The FINAL FANTASY VII Remake Series that began in 2020 with everyone’s passionate support is finally reaching its climactic finale with FINAL FANTASY VII REVELATION. The story’s final destination represents my emotions spanning thirty years working on this title" One of the biggest revelations of this announcement, however, was the multiplatform release confirmation from the get-go. Square Enix will be releasing Final Fantasy VII Revelation across PC, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PlayStation 5 in Spring 2027 without any timed exclusivity programs.
    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable

      By goretsky · Posted

      Hello, Having a simple utility to allow Microsoft's customers to configure the context menu, with a few options like showing the current menu, showing a proposed menu/alternate configurations, loading and saving the settings, and a "reset to default" option would have solved this. Let Microsoft provide a recommended default look-and-feel, maybe a couple alternative configurations, like a basic/simplified version of that, and a more advanced version for that, and that would have been very well-received, I think. Microsoft could even had offered a library of different configurations, similar to what they have done in the past for Windows Media Player skins, Themes, and desktop wallpaper. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
    • Gen Atlas is the next game from Shadow of the Colossus creator, this time with giant robots

      No Steam release. It's gonna fail on PC. Even an Epic Online engineer said that people go there for the free stuff and then immediately go back to Steam.

      Nice. Admittedly, his other games never interested me, but this seems pretty cool.
    • Microsoft Edge 149.0.4022.52

      By wingliston · Posted

      It's time to say goodbye to Edge and switch back to Firefox. There's no way to disable the ugly rounded corners that appear everywhere. Not even on the page frame. No one uses screens with rounded corners, you idiots.
