i've tried uninstalling WMP10, but it still doesn't work. Sometimes the installation will just stop at 16% where it says Currently Installing... Windows Media Format Runtime. The installation bar will just keep moving and moving till no end. :no:

managed to fix the problem, appears that the runtime cannot install due to wmdrmsdk.dll not being able to start, a re-install of itunes solved the problem although i'm not sure why. :pinch:

When using Urge and switching songs, WMP 11 tells me there it is an unrecognized file but WMP can probably still play it, so I select yes for the song to play. Weird bug.

Here is it in full:

There is a problem with the URL or file you are trying to open or play. If you are trying to open a URL, the URL may not be valid. If you are trying to play a file, the file type is not recognized by Windows Media Player, but the player may still be able to play the file. However, you should only play files from a trustworthy source.

Do you want the player to try to play this content?

I guess I don't get Microsofts position on x64...they advertise all this stuff about how x64 is the next wave and all that, but everything they release we have to wait another month for an x64 version. If they want it to catch on then why do they do that? The x64 stuff should be developed side by side with the 32bit. Besides when it's all said and done it will probably just run with 32 bit emulation anyways.

I agree. I have x64 installed and it won't let me install this beta ... seriously, if they are trying to push 64-bit technology, why not start developining the software to go along with it? Compiling something in 32 and 64-bit can't be that time consuming ...

Have you checked the labelling of the .exe file ? Somewhere on the line I can read x86 but I see no x64 ... :whistle:

Well just be patient . You got WMP 10 on x64 ? So you'll probably get WMP 11 ! :laugh:

there is no wmp 10 for x64. just some parts of it installing via windows update.

Just installed WMP 11 Beta

How do I get the right side pane to show in the Now Playing view? It some how disappeared.

Also how do I get option to search media info to organize my albums? In WMP 10 you could choose Find Album Info and it would go to a page and you could select the album your trying update info for.

Where is this option in WMP 11?

Also where can I get an AAC codec?

Thanks!

Having a bunch of trouble switching from iTunes to WMP11..

It won't add all of my music because of the way that iTunes seperates each artist/album into seperate subfolders. At this rate, I have to go and add every single album folder to the Monitoring Folders list! With 1600+ songs right now... I'm not really up to that.

Anyone else having these problems or know how to fix them? Thanks!

    • I have a older F4-210 NAS, it is pretty basic, the CPU is not the fastest by a long way and only 1GB of ram, but it works fine. I don't understand the need for A.I in a NAS. It seems like A.i is being shoved into everything, if we like it or not. i will stick to my old Terramsater NAS, thankfully the OS is not being updated. Also, got myself a small NAs built using a Raspberry Pi 5. iy usesd less energy, so stays on all the time. As for the unit above, if it is as reliable as my old Terramaster Nas, then it will be a good unit.
    • Gemini in Google Sheets can now help you debug and fix formula errors by David Uzondu Google has started rolling out an update to Gemini in Google Sheets that allows the AI to diagnose and fix formula errors in one click, as long as your Workspace admin has Gemini for Workspace in Sheets turned on. According to Google, the new feature can handle pretty much everything from basic arithmetic to very complex calculations. This ability to debug formula errors comes about two years after Google introduced basic formula generation with Gemini in Sheets. To create a formula with Gemini in Sheets, you open a spreadsheet on your computer and click Ask Gemini in the top right corner. You can also enter an equals sign in any cell and use a shortcut like Ctrl + Alt + G on Windows and Chrome OS, or Command + Ctrl + G on macOS. Once you open the side panel, you write a natural language prompt using your sheet references. For example, you can ask Gemini to divide goals by games, or to find cell C1 in range D:G. If for some reason, the formula Gemini generated doesn't work, or maybe you wrote the formula yourself, you can troubleshoot the issue directly inside the grid. When a cell shows an error message, you hover over it and click "Fix". This action opens the side panel where Gemini analyzes the data structure and automatically applies the fixes when they are ready. You can cancel the process at any time by clicking stop in the side panel. Image via Google Google has been pushing its Gemini integration in Google Sheets for a while now, steadily moving AI features from side panels directly into user spreadsheets. Last year, the Mountain View giant shipped an =AI() Function in Sheets that allowed users to run translation and text generation directly inside cells instead of using the side panel interface. Earlier this year, the company announced that Gemini in Sheets had reached near-human expert performance, achieving a 70.48% success rate on the SpreadsheetBench dataset.
    • I get what you are saying, If i go onto the Instagram site, it says log in with Facebook, but they are not allowed to link my account with Instagram until I do that. Maybe in the U.S, they can link them, but Privacy is not a thing in the U.S. the way things are going,l won;t be any better in the U.K.

    • Exactly, this is just the beginning. I hope that by that time, our inept politicians devise something like a Universal Basic Income, because unemployment and poverty rates will skyrocket otherwise. And believe me, robots that perform physical work aren't a matter of IF, but WHEN. No career is truly safe from AI/robots, it's just a matter of time.
