So is this the final version or still a Beta? I don't wanna download and install 23MB of Beta then have to download the official release again in a few days.

Leaked Beta. I suggest you wait till wednesday to download the proper version, unless you can't wait

It's SO amazing. I mean, it's clean, fast, and it only takes some minutes to get used to it!!

Memory usage is 15-18 mb when open / minmized, and 8-10mb when the miniplayer is on the taskbar.

:D

I have MCE2005, I hope it doesn't break anything. My windows is english MCE with spanish mui (it came that way from dell...) so I'm afraid to screw things up, lol.

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

With me when using a livestream it's using 3% CPU on my P3 1401Mhz, but (yest there is a but) it uses 55 megs of Virtual Memory. Quite smart! What you don't need, just put it in the slow memory to have more free fast memory :)

The official release in a few days is going to be a "public preview" of WMP11 and not the full release. So its likely it'll be this beta build or a slightly updated version. Don't expect final until a months time.

I'm surprised that this beta has stayed out of leaked hands as long as it has.....

does anybody else have the problem of it staying on top of all other windows?

When you click on the sound bars below left you can switch between three looks. The sound analyzer, mini album view and the old WMP9 bar with the moving arrows.

what do you mean?? i cant find it

Installed it, Launched it.... but.... got this:

WT*???!?!? :cry:

You need to install the Codecs first then the WMP. Dunno where you got your version from mine says Run first.exe and Run second.exe. That should cure your problem

    • Why you need to take back control of your synced passwords and how to go about doing that

      By Steven P. · Posted

      I hear you on browser password manager, in my case I have two Google profiles, one was created when Google decided to grandfather us out of Workspace for Domains (with the replacement being too expensive for 25 users) resulting in my domain email address no longer being able to be registered to a new Workspace I created (for myself and another co-owner) so I could use Takeout and sync over some stuff to the new Workspace. Then I have my personal Google profile which I could be logged into on my desktop or Mobile, so I am saving passwords on one or the other, and when an URL changes another password for the same service gets added, it basically ends up being a giant mess. Unless I missed something is there a local decent password manager that can override the browser password managers for Chrome, Edge, Firefox (profiles) so that there is only one vault, and does that also support Passkeys (which to me are still confusing because sometimes it will ask for a Passkey on a phone I am no longer using!) Microsofts implementation of Passkeys is the worst!

      It's utterly baffling that we have no idea when we'll get new features even well after they've been released. Why Microsoft thinks this is a good rollout strategy is beyond me.

      I owned a lot of Soundblaster cards over the years all the way back to the ISA slot era. I use a Soundblaster X3 external now because I'm able to run it through a KVM and have it follow the machine I happen to be using. It drives a set of JBL 305 powered monitors wonderfully. I'm not gaming or doing home theater through it, so rear channels aren't a consideration for me, though it does have side / rear / sub outputs.
