i like. will owrk perfectly with my vista windowsblinds theme. maybe, just maybe i might consider switching from itunes with 11

what kind vs do u use?

if you are referring to the VS is the screenshots--that would be royale glass i think--its the media center theme.

can you elaborate a bit? what is "sp2 compact mode"?

its WMP 11 running on vista build 5365 with xp sp2 compatibility mode. if u run wmp 11 the usual way by double clicking it will give u the transparent aero ui if dwm is enabled. if u turn off dwm u'll get a nasty looking brownish aero express ui on the player. if u run it with xp sp2 compatibility mode, u'll get the black ui. my bad though.. its compat, not compact. sorry for the confusion.

with aero dwm enabled

WMP 11 looks soooo much better than 10 does, damn.

Personally, I think this statement only holds water when WMP 11 exists in Vista. This UI looks completely out of place when used in XP, unless you have a black VS to match it. (I can't say anything about the mini player though. It looks awful at this stage. But that's just my opinion.)

Prince, it wouldn't hurt if you actually sourced where you got the screenshots from rather than saying "a network" and "someplace else" in your blog, that network being WinBeta.org.

It looks nice, but whenever I used Media player 11 in vista, the video quality for the divx file looks like crap. I am guessing it's the codec, but I'll still wait for couple of people to try it on xp, then may be switch ot 11.

same here. at least i'm running only vista codecs. don't tried any codec pack to see if i get better quality.

anyway Vista's 5365 running very fine here. finally a good BETA build.

:unsure:

    • Usually the bigger ones with many fixes/changes take a few, theyre an exception to the rule most likely
    • If you don’t get lucky with Valve’s Steam Machine reservation system, you can make your own Steam Machine instead. Valve says that “starting with the SteamOS 3.8 release, you can put together your own Steam Machine using whatever PC parts you want.” SteamOS 3.8.10 launched last week with a slew of updates, including “improved compatibility with recent Intel and AMD platforms.” Alongside that improved compatibility, Valve is giving gamers the green light to install SteamOS on their own desktops. In an interview with The Verge, Valve’s Pierre-Loup Griffais said Valve has been “rolling out improvements to [SteamOS] so it’s more compatible with desktop hardware,” including eventual support for Nvidia graphics. Griffais says Valve has “a growing team” working on Nvidia driver support for SteamOS, adding, “We’re collaborating with Nvidia very closely.” While he mentioned that Nvidia support might not come this year, Griffais emphasized that “it’s certainly something that we’re working on in the background.”     Subscription not needed: https://archive.fo/Tssfc Subscription needed: https://www.theverge.com/games/953411/valve-steamos-desktop-nvidia
    • I thought they were supposed to reduce the amount of restarts needed to install these updates? It took 3 restarts to install this update...
    • I know an idiot at work who is "Director for innovation projects" and inevitably has been tasked with following up on this whole trend of "AI and its work applicability". He recently sent out a survey on the topic, for the workforce to disclose their usage and attitudes towards AI. The survey was badly, sloppily typed out, the questions and answers (when multiple choices) were loosely correlated and, all and all, it would already be miserable in the times of MS Office Autocorrect alone. Then, I had AI responding to it all (on the open-ended questions) with beautiful, to-the-point prose after I provided it with minor but proper guidance, taking me under 10 minutes. All this to say that I am sure that if AI comes to replace someone, it will still be me, and the other idiot will still stay.
