Windows Media Player 11.2607.16.0

when or if it works i will let u know

i very much prefered this player b caus this player makes comm become very smooth. ........

I rarely post anywhere on anything but ONCE IN A WHILE people go above and beyond and reaffirm my faith that the human race is in fact a retarded failure doomed to crush under the weight of its own stupidity and inability.

Has no one here ever used VLCmediaplayer? I got all the codecs and crap to work for mp11 (elite few?, what a pain in the ass) and after i was done i decided that i still would not, nay, COULD NOT leave my VLCplayer. Im sure having this dream of playing your mp3s and your avi dvd burning software all in one is fine and dandy but its not a reality. MP has ALWAYS been a bad peice of software and if you dont believe me your probably religeous, inadequetly educated and probably paid by microscoff to disagree /w me, ANYWAY, I still use mp11 to play my mp3s because it has a nifty pictures that bounce to the rythme of the music, (thats all media player has ever done and will ever do properly) MP11 sits on the task bar with buttons and it syncs to my flash drive, thats why it wins over WinAmp. Otherwise, i wouldnt print its hexcode to wipe my arse with.

Bottom line, media player11 is chunky, overweight, slow and REALLY not user friendly. VLC plays everything; use it stream video, listen to shoutcast radio, podcasts, play dvds, i carry it on my cell phone, mp3, aac, wma, avi use .SUB files for subtitles, steal videos from utube...i could go on but OMG, WHAT DOES YOUR MEDIA PLAYER DO! WHAT DOES IT DO!

Im done. Thank you.

I agree, with all except guys getting a bit off the point (about spelling?).

I have lived with and loved WMP6-10 for years, it being the only Microsoft application I will use (Other than Windows).

It's been great until WMP11. I can't sugar coat it, it $uck$. I can't play half of my DVD files that I ripped(legally, for the record), i didn't mind looking for Codec for previous versions but this needs too much attention to play all of my files.

It looks fantastic but sadly doesn't get any part of my vote. I'll keep my X-Box, I won't be investing in Vista, and I think I'll DOWNgrade back to WMP10 (Hoping I've not lost all my codecs from before.
Is this just another Microsoft update to make us spend more (time and money) on updating. A rehash for the sake of a rehash. WMP10 wasn't broken and I wish I hadn't fixed it.

Hey Rafy
I'd concentrate on your spelling rather than DVD decoding if I was you. Get yourself a good dictionary and check each word before submitting.

DVD decoding issues are real oviusly you like to insert a DVD and play it! and gess what, uhum... don`t play. simple yes? that`s what it shuld be.

If you have an digital jukebox that you've spent hours of downloading cd's on DON'T download WMP 11. It will mess with your licensing and not play much of your music! Stay away!

*10 Yeah JS ur right. It easy 2 get it all to work, u just need the right codec, and it is possible to find. Though i need 1 thing, JS plz tell how to get ripped DVD/VCD and encoding video??

WMP has been my chose untill WMP 11. It won't play DVD and needs a a lot of additional codecs to really work well.

Have spent hours trying to get codecs for WMP 11. So far no luck. MS do not get my vote for this one. Beta or not was released to soon.

I have vista 64 bit RTM and wmp is working well although there are no avi codecs with it mine has played all dvds better than any other dvd player ialso can play them to my tv wirelessly through the xbox360 fairly well. I just need an AVI codes or two and I'll be set.

Love the player. But I can play video files from linux video servers. Ideas?

The best media player: period.
And when WMA 10 come to WMP 11... goodbye AAC and MP3!

Amaizing Player, but its still beta and have some bugs i've already tried it, i was just wondering which codecs are comming and will come with the final release. Will it support Divx/Xvid/AC3/OGG and how about a better security service?
I hope it does! Microsoft could make some updates with codecs suport so we dont have to install separately codecs or codec packs and monitoring the system registry for easy cleaning after uninstall , in few words they can save us all this headache like VLC did
windos media player is my all time favourite Player and it will become once again the best if they do that!!!!

There is a new version of Windows Media Player.And why it isnt here?
