Recommended Posts

w00t got msn music icon working

closed wmp10

cleared my cache came here saw the thread with the butterfly urls. (in firefox)

loaded up the icon url in ie (then saw the long strip of butterflys in ie)

loaded up wmp10 icon works no red x

might work for you guys too

:woot: :woot: :woot:

didn't work for me. :cry:

I would like to know too. Sometimes I use WinAMP or iTunes and if I've updated the album art in one, it makes it a pain to update it in all the others.

I think you would have to do it in either WMP 9 or 10. Select your group of MP3s and right click and choose Advanced Tag Editor then PIctures tab and add your art there (mayke sure all the files are still selected on the left of the same dialog) and APPLY.

Does anyone else just get this rather then having the Music, Radio, Movies and TVs buttons that other people seem to have. If I click on the little arrow on the right it does nothing and if I go to 'Online Stores' it says 'No Online Store. There are no online stores available for your location'. I'm in the UK, are other people in the UK not getting the music stores?

Okay, I figured out the problem with the red-x. Apparently all of you that get the red-x have Quicktime installed. Basically, quicktime is the default handler for .png files. When quicktime looses control of those files (ie: another application takes control of them,) quicktime loads a dialog box asking you to re-associate those files to quicktime. So if you were to pull up a .png file in IE, quicktime will ask you to reassoicate it with Quicktime.

This is the fix for me:

Open the quicktime player, go into file associates and add .png files back to quicktime.

This fixed the red-x problem in Windows media player 10.

I still can't get the album art to show up in the Energy Bliss vis. I've put the picture in the folder of where the songs I'm playing are (called folder.jpg) and I've also put the picture as the Cover (front) in the Advanced Tag Editor>Pictures.

Go to Tools>Options in windows media player. Then click on the library tab and tick the 'retrieve additional information from the internet' box. Then you should be able to click on 'Find Album Info' in either Now Playing or in the media library.. Once it gets an album picture it should show it in the visualization.

Why would WMP bother if quicktime is registered to PNG or not :huh:

anyway I still get the red x thing and I've wasted last 4 hrs (minus 1 hr at wendy's :p ) on this :no:

playing a video had no effect either

the Energy Bliss plugin information says if you click on the right side of the viz it will toggle the album art. worked for me :p

I just hope somebody gets a concrete solution! :unsure:

In control panel I guess Portable Media Devices comes after you get WMP10..not sure though as I was using beta and don't recall anything b4 that

    • BATorrent 3.0.3 is out.
    • The current Statcoungter desktop numbers has Google Chrome increasing it's market share this past year and currently commanding 75% share. Everybody else is just making up the numbers with even MS Edge losing 3% this past year and has dipped just below 10% share which is staggering considering it's default on every Windows deviced purchased. If these numbers are correct that terrible Edge number is both devastating and embarrassing for MS especially when you add in the terribly low Bing market share. This leads me to ask a couple of questions as the default browser holding just less than 10% market share seems really weird. It used to be that all Chromium browsers were being counted as Google Chrome in some cases.  Is this still happening? Do these high Google Chrome numbers contains some Edge user numbers?
    • Yeah, all web browsers seem to have some junk in them these days. The regular Brave browser has a lot of unnecessary stuff in it, similar to Microsoft Edge, so I don't see any benefits of using Brave over Microsoft Edge if you already have Microsoft Edge fully set up with ad blockers and that. The cleanest or best free browser outside of 'Microsoft Edge' I’ve tried so far is 'Samsung Browser'. It has very little bloat and is a nice-looking web browser with an inbuilt 'Ad blocker'. I also really like the web browser called 'Floorp' that is based on Firefox. This browser can also install Chrome extensions. I have a system wide Ad blocking program for Windows 11 that doesn't just blocks ads in the web browser, but over the whole system. I don't really need a web browser with an inbuilt ad blocker because of that.
