Windows Media Player 10 Visualizations - Download New Visualizations

2. Press CONTROL-M to show the menu bar.

3. Choose "View" - "Visualizations" - "Download Visualizations".

4. A web browser will open with several choices and a list of other sites that offer visualizations.

5. Select your desired visualization. This may involve downloading a file, or first visiting a webpage then downloading a file. After downloading a file, you may need to follow on-screen prompts if a setup program appears.

Once you have downloaded and installed a visualization, simply select it from Windows Media Player 10 in the "View" -> "Visualizations" menu. Open and play a media file, switch to skin mode (CONTROL-2) or select the "Now Playing" tab, and enjoy!
