Window Media Player 11 Now Playing List

Hi everyone,

Im having problems with Windows Media player 11. Basically, when I select a album or list of songs to play, they are nto shown anywhere within Windows Media Player 11. The only thing I see is a blank screen when i open WMP11, and when i play songs I just get the visualisation - no album informtation or anything.

How can I resolve this issue. I have been through every option I can think of but can't find anything.

Thanks

Hi DannyT

In the now playing view top item on the menu "show list pane" when selected should display current playlist

Hope this helps

Hi DannyT,

You are in skin mode which, (in that particular skin anyway), does not have a playlist option.

If you press Ctrl-1 you should switch to full mode which provides the options I showed in the Screenshot in the earlier post.

Hope this helps

Doesn't work at all for some reason. Tried Ctrl + 1 pluss the full mode button but nothing happens. Just stays in the same view as above. Im doing this as a track is playing, thats right isn't it?

Appreciate your help so far!

Re: Window Media Player 11 Now Playing List

Try the button in the top-left of the Visualization (not the main X - underneath). I think that's a "return to full mode" button.. ?

Edit: perhaps I should learn to read...
