How much resources does it use?

People who have got this are saying it uses about 15 ish mb of Ram (Y) As opposed to WMP 10 on my pc, which used like 30, and 25% CPU when playing a song :huh:.

I hope this is a beta version because I tried it and for example the colours per default are.. interesting to say the least.

Fully black player and then white playlist. What the heck?

- Why can't I remove the Online Stores Button?

- Why can't I customize the toolbar?

- Why do I keep getting the !"#? BUY THIS TRACK everywhere. It's bloody annoying.

Same with WLMessenger - full of ads now. Thankfully there are ways to remove them.

OK I've been using it for about half hour now and there is something I've noticed which really annoys me:

Whenever I find a photo of an album on the internet and drag it into iTunes, it works fine. In WMP, I paste album art into the album picture and nothing happens. Why is this?

Thanks but damm!!! download took ages to even connect.

JFYI

The US Softpedia mirror = 20mbps

The RO Softpedia mirror = 100mbps

The US mirror is the default mirror, meaning when you click download it contacts that server first, and will most likely succeed since its alive. However download speeds are a horrid 10KBps. I suggest manually selecting the RO mirror, which will give you 100+KBps speeds.

Hey guys, how do I get all my media to display like this:

...

So basically like itunes with all the albums and tracks listed on one page but with the cool new artwork display next to it?

On the panel on the left, click "songs" under the Library Category.

Alternatively, you can do it along the top.

    • Password Safe 3.72.0

      By Copernic · Posted

      Password Safe 3.72.0 by Razvan Serea Password Safe is a password database utility. Like many other such products, commercial and otherwise, it stores your passwords in an encrypted file, allowing you to remember only one password (the "safe combination"), instead of all the username/password combinations that you use. Once stored, your user names and passwords are just a few clicks away. Using Password Safe you can organize your passwords using your own customizable references—for example, by user ID, category, web site, or location. You can choose to store all your passwords in a single encrypted master password list (an encrypted password database), or use multiple databases to further organize your passwords (work and home, for example). And with its intuitive interface you will be up and running in minutes. PasswordSafe was originally designed by the renowned security technologist Bruce Schneier and released as a free utility application. Password Safe 3.72.0 changelog: Fixed bugs Improved font scale handling - should resolve font size issues on high resolution displays. GH1749 In the Master Password Setup window, "Show Master Password" is no longer truncated on some displays. GH1092, SF1595 Size and position of main window is now correctly restored on scaled displays. SF1630 Keep password expiry date when both password and password expiry are changed; don't clear a non-recurring expiry when the password's changed. SF1628 Custom values can now be copied to the clipboard in read-only mode via Ctrl-C and right-click->Copy Value. New features GH1196 Dark display mode support: Password Safe now supports the system display mode, as well as setting the mode directly via Manage->Options->Display->Display Mode. This change also updates the general "look & feel" of the app to the current Windows theme. Known limitations: The Date picker and keyboard shortcut controls do not switch to dark theme The Customize Toolbar dialog does not switch to dark theme Custom Field support has been added to the more advanced features: Filters XML and Text import and export Comparison, Sync and Merge databases SF938 Custom field values may now be selected by name and copied via a "Copy Custom Field Value..." submenu in the entry context popup menu. SF936 Notes and Custom fields layout now overlap, selectable by tabs, resulting in a more compact and less cluttered layout. SF935 Autotype: Specifying '\v{name}' in the autotype text will cause the corresponding value to be autotyped.

    • Google DeepMind AI Control Roadmap: When Alignment Fails, Defense-in-Depth Takes Over

      By +TRS-80 · Posted

      Google DeepMind published a document on June 18, 2026, that may be the most consequential admission yet from a frontier AI lab: alignment training alone cannot guarantee that AI agents will remain under human control, so structural containment must be built before more capable models arrive.............. https://www.techtimes.com/articles/318758/20260620/google-deepmind-ai-control-roadmap-when-alignment-fails-defense-depth-takes-over.htm  
    • Creative Sound Blaster AE-X PCIe review: your headphones will love it

      By Taliseian · Posted

      I've got a SoundBlasterX G6 that I use in my streaming setup. Sounds great to me and I've had zero issues with the ancient software package so far in Win11. That G6 has 7.1, Dolby, fully working SPDIF and since it's a USB device it's outside of my rig so I don't have to worry about EMF distortion. Looks like for now this is a pass for me as I think I have better hardware....

      I agree with both of you... It's absolutely imperative that science is completely based on actual proven facts and hard evidence and is not considered dogmatic in any way. Science is not a religion and it will never be, and that's exactly how it's supposed to be.
