is this a beta or final version?

It's a final version. It contains a patch to plug a security flaw within the player.

whats the version #

The version number on both packages is 9.00.00.2980, and the files in the packages are the same. Looks like it's just build 2980, not 3008.

.3008 is just the patch that should be within Windows Update that plugs a security flaw within the player... That is how I was able to update it from .2980 to .3008.

Sorry DoG and if you are under a download cap I am very sorry. :(

However I also downloaded the new update and installed it. The version number said 9.00.00.3008. I think it is probably because of an automatic update. I am going to edit the topic title anyway. Sorry again for any inconvinience caused by me.

I am running 3005 at the moment

I will try it and see what the version number is

Thanks

will update mine

thanx ;)

Yeap have had 3008 for at least a month.

Surely Windows Media Player 9.0.0.3075 this time.

What an aggressive call, check the screenshot. :huh:

I've had this happen to me once before as well... If I remember correctly, I did a system restore that triggered this behavior...

with SP2 it should look like the attached image

I had this happen after I upgraded WMP9 and tried to play a AVI file before rebooting. It's because WMP9, just having been upgraded, is expecting another version of the file it sees. After re-booting, I never saw the message again.
