same problem here. just resize the window and it'll go away.

weird bug, hope they fix it for the next build (post-final build?) Also I'd like to see the new WMP icons too that comes with Vista.

ummm WMP11 doesnt have a new icon in vista, its still 64x64 boring old wmp10 icon... its anoyin cus i want it on my desktop but its too small, doesnt fit it, i cant fine a decent one anywhere... ( that is what you meant isnt it? )

(Dane's right.)

For people with the odd white dot, what's your screen resolution?

Yeah I noticed this as soon as I'd installed it. Shoddy work.

Same here.

I'm not noticing either of these "bugs" in IE7 or WMP11 with my 1024x768 CRT.

1280x1024 on a Dell LCD. I am using the hacked uxtheme.dll to use custom themes, but I tried going back to the standard Energy theme that came with Windows Media Center 2005, and I still have the issue. So it is not theme related, unless simply using the hacked uxtheme.dll causes it. But that's assuming there is any correlation.

white dot here too, at 1680x1050 on a 17' Dell widescreen lcd

[illicit]

I have it here as well.

Some more odd white areas. Two small white dots in top left and right and a long white bar at the bottom. This has been like that for most of the beta's. I thought they would actually fix it before they release it.

[JustGeorge]

Hey, Why is my play/pause button not the same color as yours? I thought it was a design change in the final :huh:

[Davie]

Thats because you've modified the WMP color via the Color Chooser. If you reset the color to default, it will be blue.

I left the colors default unless the changes I made to version 10 affects 11. Will reset and see :)

1280x1024 as well.

I see it too with classic menus turned off. Looks like a bug. If it really bothers you, take it to WMP's technical support: since the player is already out, there's not much possibility to do anything about it right now other than if enough people gripe to technical support about it.

If you resize the player, these will go away. If you turn on Classic Menus, it'll go away.

They just changed it for final.

I think it's to do with how the PNG images are rendered, based on past experience using PNGs in web design.

1920x1200. I didn't have this problem in the beta 2 version. Little errors like this bug me to no end :).
