There is a quirk with Windows Media Player 12's 'Play To' feature that
means it doesn't work with non-standard settings for the 'font scaling'
setting in the Display control panel!

Quite unbelievably, WMP would not 'Play To' when my font scaling was
set to 104% but worked fine when set to 100%!
The symptom is the Play To window opening and then closing immediately.
I thought it was Whitebear at first (since I thought I recalled WMP Play
To working in the past, but obviously that was before I adjusted my font
scaling), but then it happens with all UPnP renderers and servers I
tried.
Obviously not Whitebear's fault, but I thought I'd post it here having
just ran into the problem myself in case anyone else has it too. I
don't think there's a fix from Microsoft at the moment, the workaround
is just to set your font scaling to 100% (I think I read 110% and 125%
might work too, but no non-standard sizes like my 104%)


Then... Asset Control and Whitebear doesn't seem so hot -- it doesn't
have a progress bar or artwork and track details when playing to
Whitebear but does when playing to foobar2000's renderer. Is it Asset
Control or Whitebear at fault here?
Also, if I give it several tracks, it seems to only play the first 10
or 15 seconds of each one (same amount every time) before skipping to
the next track. Anyone else had that?
A shame cos I kind of like the interface.
