FaiKee Posted November 13, 2011 Author Share Posted November 13, 2011 Neowin News had reported about the "Metro background changer" function added to win8 new builds, this is another change: In WDP, this is the gadgets window thru control panel: win8china showed the gadget window from a new pre-beta build http://www.win8china.com/html/279.html The function "Get more gadgets on-line" is removed, maybe this operation has to be done thru AppStore. Alos, the two-color pane in WDP gadget window, probably a color bug, is fixed.

Pc_Madness Posted December 5, 2011 Share Posted December 5, 2011 Eagerly awaiting a Windows 8 based WMC. Just hope the Xbox 360 compatability is working out of the box. Me too. :( Hoping for, - Better cover art support for TV shows and movies - PC being able to act as an extender - Perhaps some kind of online store - Stream media to mobile devices Oh, and cheap extenders to go with it. :p Annoying spending $300 when other people are buying Apple TV's for $100 and chucking XBMC on em. :( Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1034705-wmc-fans-windows-media-centre-is-back/page/2/#findComment-594497769 Share on other sites More sharing options...
