Microsoft Announces Immediate Availability of Windows Media Player For Mac OS X | |
|
||
| Time: 11:35 EST/16:35 GMT | News Source: Microsoft Press Release | Posted By: Julien Jay | ||
Today at Macworld Conference & Expo, Microsoft Corp. announced the immediate availability of Microsoft® Windows Media (TM) Player for Mac OS X. The new player has been Carbonized to run natively on Mac OS X and displays the operating system's new Aqua interface. Windows Media Player for Mac OS X allows Mac users to easily enjoy playback of high-quality Windows Media Audio and Video content. The new release supports the latest industry-leading Windows Media Audio 8 and Windows Media Video 8, as well as Windows Media Digital Rights Management, and is available in six languages worldwide. Windows Media Player for Mac OS X was built on Apple Computer Inc.'s new Carbon APIs to run natively in the OS X environment. The new player features the new Aqua interface, which provides a look consistent with many other new Mac applications. The player comes with two additional "skins," including a miniplayer skin for audio playback. Windows Media Player for Mac OS X supports playback of streamed and downloaded files using the latest Windows Media Audio and Video 8 codec technology. These codecs provide the highest-possible video quality at all bandwidths and CD-quality audio at 64 Kbps, enabling shorter download times and storage of twice as much music with Windows Media Audio than with MP3. | ||
