Microsoft’s new Media Player app is now available for more Insiders to test. The update was posted as a brief comment on Microsoft’s original Windows 11 blog post about the media player.
Modern Media Player
It should be noted that the new version of media player integrates well with Windows 11. It supports album art and artist information for music and high dynamic range playback for videos. In addition this media player can be easily controlled using a mini player or widened into full screen. The guidance on using the Windows Media Player app on your PC, including how to create and manage playlists or edit track, album, and artist information can be found on Microsoft’s website. What the Media Player does is to replace Groove Music on Windows 11, but Microsoft Movies & TV will continue to stream content purchased through the Microsoft Store.

We designed this app to be the music and video player of choice for Insiders. The app for the new media player for Windows 11 specifically for insiders in the Beta channel can be found by updates on the Microsoft store. It will replace the music groove through an update. Microsoft offers the new Media Player app as a replacement for the older Windows Media Player application.
