Awesome start. In particular, nice job on sizing stuff up. I was actually going to do a media player 11 clone myself, but i kept putting it off for other stuff. I'm really glad to see that you made this. Windows Media Player 11 looks great, and if there are going to be iTunes clones, then there should a WMP11 clone as well. As for feedback, i think I'll just wait for another update because I'll just say obvious stuff that I'm sure you're already aware of.

Love the feather. I have a few things to suggest in case you dont already have them planned, but like Lib I will probably wait for the next release for the minor details. First off, I would work on a hover for tabs, there is none currently. I would also change either the display pane backgorund or the song selection background because it looks awkward with both the same. Also, the selected track BG is a little of the theme. Just a black bar but Im sure you are planning to fix that.
I like the concept of this because in my opinion WMP11 was a very nice looking player, plus there are too many Itunes clones and not enough balance.

I really like the tooltips btw, you should talk with Lib to work on something like that for AeroBirdPro.

Really like this theme especially the bottom bar with the media controls and things.
Tooltips are nice
My only real criticism is to work on how selected tracks look. It is a bit of a harsh look right now.
If you wanted to you could also add a way to differentiate between the selected tab and the others.

I just uploaded a major update in Aero Bird Pro. It's a product of month's worth of testing and work so it contains alot of bug fixes for stuff that you're experiencing due to your basis on the old version of Aero BIrd Pro. Just wanted to tell you that to maybe save you some grief. Also, is there is anyway i can help with this project? I'm very much interested in this feather.

The titlebar issue for Mac is there for any skin built using Aero Bird. I'm looking into the issue, and as soon i fix it, i'll send you a post with the fix. I'm sorry about that bug. I don't use Mac so i never noticed. :(

The titlebar bug has been fixed by a person that emailed me about the problem (Name: Jack Kashmir). The issue was from overrides.css found in chrome/skin/os-specific/mac. He compared it with YABS and found this:

Aero Bird Pro css:

/******************************************************************************
> HIDE ELEMENTS
  Hide specific elements in the window used only for Windows and Linux
******************************************************************************/

/* title bar */
 #titlebar_box {
  visibility:collapse;
  border:none !important;
  min-height:0px !important;
}

YABS css:

/******************************************************************************

> HIDE ELEMENTS
  Hide specific elements in the window used only for Windows and Linux
******************************************************************************/

/* title bar */
window:not([hidechrome="true"]) #titlebar_box {

  visibility:collapse;
  border:none !important;
  min-height:0px !important;
}
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The difference was Aero Bird Pro had this line:
     #titlebar_box {

and YABS had this line:
    window:not([hidechrome="true"]) #titlebar_box {

I like it. Very sleek and matches Vista and 7 quite well. Now if only it were native I would like it even more.

Hmm, the top right icons seem to be a bit off when you hover over them, or is this intended?

@seba_kerckhof
Hmm, if you need any help i'd be glad to lessen your burden. :) I was actually hoping to see if you were interested in being the first feather to adopt the Focus layout considering that the layout would make it more like Windows Player, but i guess if you're busy I'll just download this feather's xpi and see how it goes myself. Good luck on your other project. Is it another feather?

@thevan
According to a fan of Aero Bird Pro:
"If you want native window borders, try copying the skin folder over to the 'More Native' Add-on."

1/- So download More Native and Crow with a browser other than Songbird.
2/- Extract the xpi's somewhere (separate from each other).
3/- Open the install.rdf of more Native and change the max version to 1.2.0.
4/- Replace the skins folder in more native with Crow.
5/- Archive the the chrome.manifest, install.rdf, and chrome folder of More Native as a ZIP file.
6/- Rename it to .xpi.
7/- Then open the Songbird add-ons window and install it by click the install button and selecting the newly made xpi.

Looks like an awesome skin. Any chance of getting it updated for version 1.4/1.5?
