Re: WMP11b2: DVD behavior

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry


Those aren't areas I'm familiar with. Sounds like we're getting an AutoPlay
notification and handling that. You could turn off AutoPlay if this is
really annoying. Being uninvolved with this area (if I was, we'd both
suspect there would be a hidden Off button that I'd put in =) ), I can't
comment intelligently.

I'm off doing other exciting things now, sorry. =)

WMP won't pop itself into full-screen mode. That may be a video card

Thanks.

What about the autoplay of DVDs when WMP11 is running in the background?

If WMP11 is not configured to autoplay DVDs, I don't think it should
autoplay a DVD simply because it is running in the background and
notices a DVD being inserted if it's not set as the handler for DVDs.

The other annoyance is that WMP11 seems to bring itself to the front
when a DVD is inserted and music is playing. It correctly doesn't stop
the music and start playing the DVD, but it does bring the WMP11 window
to the front... undesirable, IMO.
