Chrno Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 Surprised no one has tested foobar2000 yet.Works of course. You still have to enable the "Win XP compatibility mode" for v.9.6.0+ (or just when using "some" plugins), same goes for Vista as well due to outdated "bla bla" in the code. Most apps on a major scale seems to work, except maybe fugly coded apps and people that restrict certain apps to a specific OS version, etc...SPTD which is used by famous apps such as daemon-tools and alcohol 120% uses this and should work on Win7 but don't as SPTD is OS ver coded and therefore don't work atm. They've stated that they DO NOT SUPPORT BETA OS's, for that matter use PowerISO instead. Although it's using it's own awesome "virtual image bla bla feature" (similar so DT/Alco), it won't work with... for example DVD Decrypter or apps that are built on that code. So using PISO is a fine way to save you from image hell, until a win7 release of SPTD is out.Drivers namely audio drivers aren't properly working (even if installed correctly) such as Reltek's HD Audio drivers. But Vista/7 have support for most of these built in ones and the official drivers are mostly there to give the user enhanced/fully features that their audio cards (whatever is embedded or not) have.For video codec problems use ffdshow. It's been working as intended for the past 6 years, and is reaching it's 7th year soon. For those dealing with AVS/fansubbing, there's nothing to worry about. I see no difference except maybe the speed upgrade compared to Vista when using "traditional" apps.A tip to the users:Stating that Open Source apps is working on 7 is like telling someone that you can finally slice bread. Like i said, it's just them fugly folks that likes to b***h around and code apps with OS ver restrictions/checks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shark007 Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 (edited) K-Lite Codec Pack - Tried to play an MKV, sound but no video, not sure what the problem with that is, works fine on Vista & XP.interesting. i tried the combined community codec pack and when i tried to play mkv, the system would blue screen.The Win7codecs release by me.The Win7codecs package which I have created does not change or interfere with what Microsoft has going on concerning native codec support in Windows Media Player 12 and Media Center. DXVA accelerated H264 playback is provided by the codec package for all other capable players.sorry for this shameless plug.shark Edited January 24, 2009 by Shark007 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So we can hopefully wait for, at least, a beta version.I had no issues with Realtek HD Audio Drivers, installed Vista's R2.11 64 bit and they run just fine. Default ones didn't work properly for me.

sbaeder Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 APPLICATIONS- CCleaner 2.15Sorry to differ, but the ability to add the context menu's to the recycle bin isn't working due to a permissions issue on the registry entry for the recycle bin.So, I would say, this needs a small tweak (manual instructions posted in the CCleaner forums) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smiley89 Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 Good to know... I didn't use the contextual menus in the recycle bin (unchecking them during install), that's why I didn't notice. I'll update my post Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lippy Posted February 1, 2009 Share Posted February 1, 2009 (edited) Skype 3.8 - Works fine on the x86 version despite a warning about it being incompatible. It crashes every few seconds on the x64 version however, making it unusable.Skype 4.0 beta 3 - Works.Firefox 3.0.5 - Works, but the theme has a minor display glitch. It thinks Aero on Windows 7 is an unsigned theme for some reason, so it looks a little incorrect. It's fully functional though. UPDATE: Firefox 3.0.7 and up has fixed the theme glitch.Team Fortress 2 - Works. Edited May 12, 2009 by Lippy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
