hi this is Adam Lane with pocketnow.com I'm going to quickly show you some of the new features in the Zune HD 4.5 software release that was just released today so first off I'm going to show you the marketplace that same as usual click on music now it has pics at the top and this is basing off of my normal music listening habits and it gives me some recommendations as to a few other artists that I might like so let's try the academy is I don't have any of this music on my zoom this is all downloading over the Wi-Fi and you see the top is a mix our smart DJ makes playlist button you can recognize that from the desktop and if I press that I am going to smart DJs picking music and so that made a new playlist for me just based off of that one artist and if I look at the playlist you can see there's a bunch of different artists there what comes back to this and you see a little Wi-Fi icon there that indicates that these are all downloading over the Wi-Fi and they're not on my player but if there were any on my player they would show up without that icon and you can see there's a pretty good variety of different artists showing up in this playlist another cool thing if we let it play for a while the screensaver is updated a bit you're going to see some new artwork as we wait that Adana there we go got some nice background images now in text and album art will float around so that's pretty nice some of the other features are work best with the Zune dock yeah I didn't plug that in yet or it also has some new code s so you off to transcode video then you want to play on the Zin and that's but it's really nice
