Microsoft continues to roll out the chunks of code that will be included in SP1. This one doesn’t replace any existing hotfixes, but does cover one documented issue, and two previously undocumented issues, and includes code from an August security update (MS07-047).

Here are the issues that are resolved in this update:

• When you run multiple instances of Windows Media Player, the media library database of Windows Media Player may become corrupted. The next time that you start Windows Media Player, the media library will be empty. Then you must rescan the drive and set up your library again. For example, this issue may occur when you run a stand-alone instance of Windows Media Player and an embedded instance of Windows Media Player in Internet Explorer.
• When you try to add some files to the media library or when you try to index the files by using Windows Desktop Search, the process may stop responding.
• In the Japanese version of Windows Media Player 11, some words are inappropriately or incorrectly translated. For more information, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
