About the screens and menus
Windows Media Player has three primary screens:
• Playback screen. The default screen that displays the playback
controls (such as Play, Pause, Next, Previous, and Volume) and the
video window. You can change the appearance of this screen by
choosing a different skin.
• Now Playing screen. The screen that displays the Now Playing
playlist. This special playlist indicates the current file being played and
any files that are “queued up” to play next.
