Just tested out WMP 11 public beta and it's very very buggy.

If you guys want to have a stable media player, I would suggest you to stick with WMP10 first.

Hi noob question.
I've installed WMP11. NOticed that my chinese songs are displayed as gibberish in the library. Same thing in WMP9 & 10 too.
How to get it to display chinese characters? I've enabled East Asian Languages in the COntrol Panel/Regional settings, but still can't.

Help please. notworthy.gif

I think your MP3s are not tagged in Unicode chinese.

A few things you can try.
- Re-tag all the MP3s with chinese unicode (the one you key in using WinXP IME). A very tedious process but good for long term.

- Use Software like Chinese Star to open and see whether

- Use applocale - for more information refer to this thread

for the energy bliss in wmp10, why the album art doesn't show even the jpeg file is named AlbumArtSmall? for example, i play "song A" in folder "A", there's no album art. then, i play "song B" in folder "B", the album art shows. when i try play song A again, the album art will display. why?

Same problem here in WMP11. And even when I try to play song A again the album art won't defect. I think it can be considered as defect.

Windows Media Player 11 Due on 30th October

Despite mentioning in a press release that Windows Media Player 11 would be ready for 24th October, Neowin has learned via a Microsoft spokesperson that this date has been changed to 30th October.

Windows Media Player 11 sports a new UI, better sync capabilities and an intergrated version of URGE.

Anyone has this problem with WMP11?

It seems that all the albums without album art, use the same cover, which it really shouldn't be sweat.gif

No, mine will show the 'Music' logo. I think that 'folder.jpg' might be copied at the root folder

Mind explaining more about this? I can't seem to solve the problem even I've upgraded to WMP11 official

I've to somehow change to detailed view to reduce the album art nuisance sleep.gif

So where is the folder.jpg located? ALL folders in my hard disk? The folder I store MP3? The WMP11 installation folder? The folder in System32?

Thanks linkinstreet
But how do you see the folder.jpg?

I've already enabled hidden file viewing, but I still can't see folder.jpg (however, I'm pretty sure the file is there because when I try to create one, it says file already exist)

Is/can your PDA connected to windows xp as Mass Storage (as in you can see a drive in My Computer)?

If yes, then most probably WMP11 will detect it and ask you if you want to sync it
