You wont be able to test the stream, its a newscast from my cabletv provider and only accessible to its customers. If you don't believe me i can create a screen capture video at the weekend.
I have tried 5 or 6 times to change the download folder to another drive, coz i keep programs and data on seperate drives. I had to reboot the machine for another reason, and when i started WMR again, it was back at its defalut folder, i set it to new folder, closed it, reopened it, it was back to its default folder. After 5 or 6 attempts i gave up.
About the interface one can argue, i guess its a matter of taste, i just don't like skinned interfaces much, windows provides very good Gui elemets for almost any use one can imagine, i really hate how every programmer today seems to think without resource eating skinning support his program will be less accepted... I still use the classic old Win95 look on my WinXP converted Win2k3R2 (Proud Member of the Vista-NO-THANKS! League). Any programs that don't adhere more or less to the Win32 GUI standard hardly make it onto my personal favorites list, unless the skin support is fully deactivateable (<-does this word exist? if not i just conjured it into the oxfords concise dictonary

).
