I have always liked the "Windows Media Player 10: Energy Bliss" visualization, but in the back of my mind I always thought more could be done with it. Recently I found "Aurora Bliss" by ~fediaFedia so I decided to bust out ResHacker and have my own go at it.
I haven't been able to change the white gradient at the bottom so I had to make it seem like it was intentional. I also could not change the shadow color for text, so I'm stuck with bluish backgrounds. I also have not found out how to get multiple copies of the DLL to show up on the Visualization menu. I came close but I could only select one of the two, so for now, you will have to override the original settings.
What is changed? The CD case from blue to black. The ratings stars from 3D yellowish gold to a flat, simple white. The spectrum meter boxes from blue to a more 3D and less saturated blue-green.
To Install: 1. Download the EXE file 2. Since this installation is built on Microsoft's original "Energy Bliss" visualization, you do not have to have it installed previously for this mod to work, but if you do, make sure Windows Media Player is closed and rename MediaPlayer_10.dll to something else (I recommend MediaPlayer_10.dll.old) 3. Run the EXE file (if you have not renamed/removed the MediaPlayer_10.dll file, the setup program will not override it. This file must not exist for the setup to work properly and it will not give an error if the file already exists) 4. Start Media Player and select Windows Media Player 11 > Energy Bliss to view the modification.
Note If you want to restore the factory settings make sure WMP is not running, delete MediaPlayer_10.dll, and rename the backup [MediaPlayer_10.dll.old] to MediaPlayer_10.dll
This modification can not be installed concurrently with any other Energy Bliss modification.
I haven't tested it on Vista, so I'm not sure if it works or not. If you ran the EXE file and it doesn't work, then I'm guessing it doesn't work in Vista. It has been tested with WMP10 and WMP11 on XP, but that's all that I've tested.
