Analysis of my blogging
Some people nkow my blog better than I do. Check out Mike A’s analysis of my blogging habits over the past six months. Wow!
The other side of the story is that shortly after Christmas I moved off of working on Windows Vista fulltime and started working on a different project and so your speculation is just a little bit off :).
Any chance we will see Xbox 360 Controllers on Windows working with Vista Media Center through Xinput?
Matt,
Your blog has been very interesting and informative reading. Will this blog be shut down as of Friday afternoon?
And also, any info on where you’ll be working or at least blogging from in your post-MSFT days? Maybe take a lesson from Howard Stern and use this pulpit that you have now to promote where you’ll be in the future! :)
If you want to find out my post-Media Center plans prior to this Tuesday you should come join us for happy hour this Friday :)

Since you are in the Media Team at the moment, how about fixing bugs (one existed in MP10 for WMA Only) in Beta 2 of Media Player 11 (which will be Mp11 in Vista) ?
*Tracks that have no number show as 0 for MP3 and WMA
*Tracks where you use Advanced Tag Editor to blank a track number out return after pressing OK (Only happened on WMA in MP10)
*Cover art not resized if bigger than Playing Now window, just cropped off.
*Is the GMT date bug fixed yet ? (Release year entered then MP10 and MP11 take one off the year if in GMT (UK) zone eg 2006 becomes 2005 on libray scan or import to another PC and scan.
*Will the Year Released field make it into the Advanced Tag Editor along with Publisher/Label like it should be as its meta data !!??
*MP11 shows the composer names when track is playing by alternating information, except that the separators are show as is between each name if multiple composers eg “Fred A;Fred B”
Just a few bugs….
Matt,
I Have weird bug in Vista after running an app written in VB6 which uses dates to search records,
The system clock date and all explorer file dates are now broken and show “DD-09-YY” now instead of “30-09-06″. Exiting the app and rebooting had no effect and the app doesnt load at runtime. Could any vb6 app break vista’s date handling? I’m using Build 5600. Sorry to ask but searched everywhere till I saw your Blog :O)
