NEWS / Windows Media Player 9 Build 2903 erhältlich

Nach Build-Version 2800, macht Microsoft nun einen größeren Sprung und ist nun bei Build #2903 angekommen. Erste Mirrors wurden bereits bei FileConnect gelistet. Sobald die ersten stabilen Mirrors erhätlich sind, werden wir den neuen Player auch in unserem DownloadCenter linken. Unter anderem, wurden folgende Verbesserungen gemacht...

• "Personal Firewall issue: If you have a personal firewall product installed on your computer, in some cases Windows Media Player fails to receive content over a network and in other cases the Player may crash when trying to receive streaming content. The problem is related to the firewall software that is not yet able to handle new Windows XP and Windows .NET Server networking APIs. Windows Media Player 9 Series Beta Refresh (build 2800) addresses this issue.
• Surround Sound Speaker Setting issue: If Windows Media Player starts to play audio but there is no sound, check to see if your speaker settings are set to Surround Audio. There is a known issue in Windows Media Player 9 Series Beta where the Player may crash when you play regular stereo or mono WMA content while your speaker settings are set to Surround. Even if the Player does not crash, you still won´t hear any audio. Windows Media Player 9 Series Beta Refresh (build 2800) addresses this issue.
