Full screen artist visualizations return to Xbox Music on Windows 8

Concluding week we announced a modest update that was pushed for Xbox Music on Widows 8.one. The update had seemed to simply include a diversity of bug fixes and performance tweaks, simply a member from our forums has pointed out that the update has brought back a feature that had been previously taken out in a past update – full screen artist visualizations.

User John Balacano has pointed out the latest release of Xbox Music brings back the long loved "full screen artist" back to our Windows 8.1 PCs. For those of y'all who are feeling a scrap homesick from the legacy Zune desktop software, this will sure make you feel at domicile.

The original Zune software was released fashion back in 2006 for syncing Zune devices – the ability to sync Windows Telephone devices was later added on in 2022 when the first version of the mobile operating arrangement appeared on the market. Many users today still continue to utilize the Zune software despite the fact that Microsoft has ceased to provide updates after it was replaced by the, now, Xbox Music app for Windows eight.

If the visualizations are i of the reasons you prefer the Zune software over the Xbox Music application, then you can check that item off of your list. The full screen creative person visualizations look best if you happen to have a second monitor on which you tin keep the Xbox Music app open, while working on the other. To check out the visualization way, simply navigate to the "Now Playing" tab on the left hand side and then click the full screen button on the right manus side of the screen.
