New in WMPCDText 1.3 (Jul 30, 2012)

  • Fixed: the "Read CD-Text" menu item didn't appear in non-English versions of Windows Media Player 12.
  • Fixed: crash when opening Windows Media Player 12 with a very long command line (such as when Windows Media Player is opened by clicking on an MP3 hyperlink in Internet Explorer).

This also caused 'unauthorized window' errors in the event log while using a Windows Media Center Extender.
  • Dropped support for Windows Media Player 10.
  • Preliminary support for Windows Media Player 12 on Windows 8.

New in WMPCDText 1.2 (Jul 28, 2009)

  • The "Read CD-Text" menu item is shown in the Play List pane on the right, both in Library and Now Playing mode.
  • Removed the compatibility warning that was displayed on the first Windows Media Player launch after installing WMPCDText.

New in WMPCDText 1.1 (Jul 28, 2009)

  • Fixed: "Error while executing SCSI command: SRB completed with error (4)" message when WMPCDText tried to read CD-Text on some systems.
  • Fixed: On Windows Vista, the installer failed to find Windows Media Player and displayed an error message.
