iTunes 7.0.1


Recommended Posts

I downloaded it when it came out but it seemed to go slow on my computer. Old itunes runs fine and I really think that Apple could make itunes look way better. Maybe like a black and blue shiny theme would be cool. Taking the old theme and making it kind of blue is stupid.

is anyone else annoyed by the fact that the cover art viewer keeps going back to the song playing after of few seconds. i have a butt load of albums and I like to scan through the artwork while i look for the next song I want, but if i stop scanning for about 5-10 seconds it flys back to whatever song is playing and then i have to scroll back to where I was....very annoying.

They need to rebuild iTunes with Quicktime engine fully integrated and stop this piggy back garbage.

I preferred it when they were both seperate programs, but if they are going to do it the current way it would probably be better to give them both a tighter integration and make it a WMP style player.

If what the people mean by getting distorted playback is that the volume seems very high and therefore everything gets distorted - I had the same problems too - and solved it.

Go to Control Panel -> Quicktime -> Audio Tab.

I changed the Rate, Size and Channel. It's now at 44.1kHz, 24 bit, Quadraphonic (I have a 4.1). Try changing these 3 settings to your setup and see if it works!

Anyone experiencing iTunes screwing up your mouse? The graphical cursor becomes frozen, while the "invisible" cursor is still functioning. For instance, I can move my mouse around and still click on stuff while the graphic cursor is stationary. This happens somewhere between ripping a CD and going through my library as the CD is ripping... O.o

So you go though the hassle of testing it on a virtual machine, which runs slower and doesn't provide iTunes propper access to your audio device.

My WinXP Pro SP2 VM recognizes my SB Audigy 2 just as good as the host system which is the same OS. And believe it or not, this VM only runs slightly slower than the host.

i find itunes 7 to be fine but what bugs me (and i dont know why its doing it) whenever i view a video streamed through the music videos in the itunes library or if i subscribe to a podcast and download it, if i view it trhough itunes i get severe lag. However if i open up the quicktime application and open the video in the quicktime player it works fine ? :no:

    • I'm hoping with the Surface Pro 12, I can use either USB-C for my Xreal One Pro glasses. With my Surface Pro 11 OLED X Elite, I have to plug them into the top port. The bottom port will power it, but nothing shows on the screen. Maybe it's my setting. When I plug in the glasses, I have it output only to the glasses. So maybe I need to turn on both displays with it in the top port, then switch the glasses to the bottom port and set it to output only to the glasses. And then hopefully Windows remembers the settings for either the top port and bottom port (one of the awesome features of Windows where it remembers the exact configuration when plugging in external monitors.
    • Forgive my ignorance, but the only difference I see here is that a USB-A is now a USB-C, so there are two of them. For the modern age (and I'd argue since 2020), most products would now come with USB-C as an option, if not the default. Display, charging, devices, etc on TWO connectors, sometimes all combined! So having 2 of those powerful ports is great for something this size! Meanwhile my Surface Pro (5) has a single USB-A port which I cannot even get display out to, instead relying on some Surface Connect dock which I don't have. That is a poor experience, not to mention expensive and not compatible with other devices. Thank God USB-C is mainstream!
    • wow. that color finally comes to Surface Pro. was always a little jelly when a friend had the sandstone Surface Laptop. I wonder how different this dune is from the sandstone. I'll be getting the dune version. always thought black and platinum were a little boring. I'll still have access to my blue Surface Pro 11 as it'll be a hand-me-down.
    • Looks a very subjective aren't they!? I like its simple design. I love the way Apple designs their products with function over form, minimalization, and simplicity over cluttered complex designs. Many, not all, of their products follow this trend, and the device becomes a tool rather than dominating the space. I do not however like their OS. I have never bought a Apple product, and while I'd consider the Neo for my wife, I am hoping there are better alternatives out there when her failing MacBook Pro 2017 finally stops. Fischer-Price is famously plastic, garish, and poorly made. Basically you're describing the Window Laptops the Neo competes against! This is how product design should be, and what Apple have often followed in recent years: https://tenprinciples.design/
    • Isn't that true for every codec? I remember having to buy a PCI MPEG-2 decoder card just so I could play DVDs on my computer back in the late 90s. AV1 support is still fairly new.
