Cough, cough, there may be a new cough, cough, ultimate extra out (mostly) that I helped get there.

:)

Most of you want it. I want feedback.

    Jonsey, I'm not sure what you thought would be attractive specifically to this audience - Short-Media members. Here's a ZDNet link for "Ultimate Extras." Again, not sure if this is what you referred to. Go ahead and post a link. You've been a member for a long time and you've disclosed you work for Microsoft. We won't consider links provided by you to be spamming.

    Did you force a refresh, by clicking the "check for updates" in the upper left?

    I only ask because I think there's a PREVIEW build of DreamScene up for download as of about an hour ago.

    Hey i downloaded that like 2hours ago and here i find one of the creators! ha i love this site :bigggrin: its kick ass dude! and tell your fellow project guys/girls that as well. basicaly its a very quick download that allows you to play .wmv and maybe .gif ( ?) files as your desktop background instead of a static image. its a way cool idea and im glad to see youve incorporated it into windows VU. i tried that bear in the river file that comes with, and it works beautifully! sadly i dont have any .wmv files, im all .avi so i gotta get on that. or maybe u can let me know if an update way down the line will maybe support all video types?

    anyway u want feedback? i say that’s what I call a fine job! this puts a lil umph in making me appreciate shelling out the extra cash on windows VU. :thumbup

    WMVs and MPG2s.

    Also, no, don't give me credit for making it, that goes to some very talented folks, who've done long hours, and jumped through hoops for me. I'm part of the servicing pipeline, and I've made them do huge work for me to make sure that this doesn't make future servicing more difficult.

    I'm Microsoft, I'm Windows, but that credit goes to another team... who I'll be happy to pass your joy on to. (After putting up with me, they deserve it) :D

    {Also, I have no clue what will be in the final release of this version (well some clue, none that I can talk about) and for future versions... they're an awesome group, I'll leave it there.}
