Re: MD: MS Media Player 7 is so cool!
If it works for you, you have a good deal. I'm using version 6 of it, and I use version 7 of real player PrinceGaz wrote: From: "Taky Cheung" [EMAIL PROTECTED] I uninstall the beta immediately also.. haha I'm not sure for this release. but for the beta version that I tried, when I double click a MP3 playlist, it takes forever to load. How many MP3's do you have, and what classifies as forever. I'm happy with it, okay the initial ecstacy of the really cool effects (I like Niagara) have sorta worn off but I certainly won't uninstall it.

=== = NB: Over 50% of this message is QUOTED, please = = be more selective when quoting text = === From: "Tsuki_yomi" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hi guys, Its been around for months but the first official release version of MS Media Player 7 is on the Microsoft Windoze update site, and though I shudder as I type the following words about an MS product-- this is just too cool to believe. I've just touched the surface of its features but even its audio playback screen has a fancy sound-to-light converter with loads of types to choose from. I believe it can rip CDs to MP3s but havent checked for that yet. At any rate it is light years ahead of the previous version of Media Player (everytime I went to the MS update and saw the Media Player 7 beta listed, I was tempted but resisted). Normally I tend to slag off MS but this product at first sight seems great, wots more it's free!!! Is this MS trying to kill of Real and MusicMatch and other multimedia software producers? There must be an ulterior motive behind this seemingly wonderful piece of software. You guys are the best I know to ask, any thoughts on it? Personally I'm staying away from it. I have installed it to try it out, but it was removed almost immediately. I have a lot of video clips that play fine fullscreen under 6.4. I tried them in 7 and it was like I had a low end Pentium instead of the 550@645 that I run. WMP7 suffers BADLY from terrible refresh rate and laggy control response. It may have some really cool features but if its that slow I'm willing to do without them. The one good thing I will say is that it seems to uninstall cleanly ^_^ James Budworth Its good to know it uninstalls cleanly and doesnt leave a load of dodgy "I'll use this for such and such" lying around I must say I was slightly suprised to find my K6-3/450 giving a rather jerky picture when the sound-video eindow was opened beyound a window size of about 640x400 Esp as my pretty good videocard (overclocked videocard I should say) can cope with Quake II like a walk in the park Cheers, PrinceGaz. - To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
