[acies]

I'll be sticking with itunes...

Nice, but what about the visualisations? Why haven't they been updated? What about the visualisation WMP is seen playing in http://www.wmplugins.com/ or is that just pretty photoshop marketing from MS?

[illicit]

Great news, thanks for the heads up. :)

:D :D :D

x64 support at long last!

Erm... define what you mean by that.

Erm... define what you mean by that.

Though it is not a native x64 app, it at least installs itself on XP x64 ;)

^^^

doesn't open up for me, but i believe it is for automatic sharing to MCE computers/xbox 360

How do I disable it? :unsure:

[amrinders87]

Thanks for the news. I will be updating as soon as I get home.

[viciv]

thanks a lot. glad that the x64 version is released too

.ogg support yet?

[tiagosilva29]

.ogg support yet?

No, and I don't think they would ever support that, because for Microsoft, somehow most open audio/video compression formats are a synonym of not worthy to be encoded/decoded.

But I have some good news for you: you can now also rip your CDs as Wave and WMA Pro. ~{>:}

I don't use it except for video, but downloaded it to be "up to date". I think it looks cool, It's very responsive and low on resources also I find. I think they did a good job.

thanks a lot! :)

[BigDaddy]

sweet.. thanks for the heads up (Y)

installing now..

[kombolcha]

VLK CDs require WGA too...

i guess i'm special, because i never had to enter serial number, never had to activate it, and installed ie7, win updates, and now wmp. all validate as genuine.

and yes, i do have legit licenses for my laptop and desktop, i just dont' like the activation and having to do more than 60 windows update.

Downloading, 45% done.

I was curious, because it asked if I wanted WMP to be associated with ogg filetype, and then when i tried to add ogg files to the library, they didn't show up. Idiots.

this visualization looks slick!!

can't find it though..

[Andy1369]

Does anyone else have a white pixel issue around the corners of the player? I didn't have this issue with the beta. I also installed the final on top of the beta... I guess that could create an issue, but I didn't see any warnings to remove it before installation.

I have the exact same thing - installed on top of WMP 10, so guess it's a WMP specific bug, not a upgrading one.

I created a post with pictures ... can't believe this slipped under MS but hey they aren't perfect. I'm sure they'll release a fix for this soon.

[morca007]

Sooo, are there ANY updates since Beta 2?

[G4M3R]

Thanks (Y)

[Tech_Dude_5000]

Sooo, are there ANY updates since Beta 2?

beta 2 was feature complete. infact the whole media player 11 beta was feature complete. it's just bug fixes. nothing major.

[Jamushroom Veteran]

Where can I find that color picker?

[Crazysah]

Awsome! Downloaded and installed and I am loving it!

[ph_bradley]

this visualization looks slick!!

can't find it though..

probably a montage, that should be the Library tab!

[Dogan]

I hope the final comes in swedish soon, since beta2 never came in swedish :(

Been stuck with beta1.

[Nelsinho]

yep thanks dude, downloading now (Y)
