How to change the background image of Windows Media Player 12’s library view
November 8th, 2008
Hi big boys n gals
So Windows 7 M3 is out there officially @ PDC’08, Today I was playing with its registry hive and found a registry tweak that can help to change the background of Windows Media Player 12’s library view.
The registry tweak is so simple and can change 7 differenet backgrounds.
How to:
1) Run Registry Editor and navigate to: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\Preferences
2) Search for a DWORD value named LibraryBackgroundImage
3) Change it to 0 to 7 and see the effect. only 0-7 are valid data for this DWORD value.
I like the way WMP12 is looking. Especialy now that the media guide was moved from the toolbar to the lower left corner.
