    All you have to do to avoid this error, code19 is to uninstall Toshiba Recovery Disk Creator and Toshiba Recovery Disk reminder. I thought that it had been uninstalled before that I've updated but I was wrong. I just uninstall both and hey presto it works :)

    If you say that your music files are now on a different drive, you will need to tell WMP to go pick them up.

    1. open WMP.

  • Windows media player cannot read CDs and DVDs

    MS supports says my Player DVD is dead and needs a new drive. So, I just install a new ROM DVD and still have the same problem - cannot read CDs and DVDs.

    When I play the CD, I always get the error meessage--(lecteur Windows media a rencontré une erreur lors de la lecture de lecteur de CD en mode numérique...). 'Digital' is selected under the tool-> properties-> device.

    When I play DVD, it is frozen my laptop or keep spinning and froze the Windows Explorer and the reader.

    I was able to read DVDs and CDs once after a few restart. During playback of CD the WMP abruptly stopped with error message and since that time cannot play CD DVD & more.

    So far, I did a few fixs that I found online and nothing wroks:

    * No upperfilter or UpperFilter registry

    * Uninstall and let the laptop automatically reinstall the driver

    * Ms. Fix it gives different results every time I run the fix-(1) detects no problem and therefore no patches have been applied (2) the main media in the CD drive is not readable (same CD has played correctly when using external USB DVD rom)

    Can someone help and let me know what that could be the problem and how to fix it! Thank you!

    Hi Amy,

    You can read the following article to clear the Windows Media Player database and check if it helps.

    If you have any third-party media player installed on the system, then check if the DVD player works with it.

  • DVD drive on laptop does not work since the installation of Windows 8

    The DVD player on my laptop would not consider movies since I installed Windows 8.  Any ideas what app or service should be addressed to make it work.  I don't know if it is a hardware problem (I doubt it, it worked fine before) or a video software problem.  Any suggestion would be appreciated.

    Unfortunately, Windows 8 does not natively support playback of DVD movies.  You need to install a Windows Media Center (no player) or a 3rd party application.

    I recommend VLC - a free, open-source media player.  It will play DVD files immediately after installation.  Additional measures must be taken if you have a Blu - Ray player on your device.

  • my windows media player is VERY slow to start, sometimes stops working, will not play some videos

    When I run the program it opens but will not play a song sometimes longer than 15 minutes. Stops working and the screen will sometimes foggy transparent white - I can still see the player, but he has a white on fog. Today, that happen when you try to copy a cd. -just a regular old cdr.

    Show first frame of video and play a sound but video does not move. Windows vista-home premium-toshiba.

    I suggest that you try to reset the media library. Note firstly reset the library will make you lose all play counts and ratings too. Then, follow these steps:

    -Restart the PC.
    -Click Start, type services.msc in the search field and press ENTER. In Services, locate the Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service. If its status is started, double-click on the service and click on stop.
    -Click Start, type %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft in the search field and press ENTER. This folder opens in Windows Explorer.
    -In this file, rename the old Media Player like Media Player folder. If you do not see the folder, then it is probably hidden. Set Explorer to view the hidden files and folders and show protected system files.
    -Launch WMP, your library will have been reset and will be rebuilt. Check if the problem persists.

  • Windows Media Player cannot see the music files, but Realplayer works perfectly - what is happening?

    I am under w7 pro on a laptop, after the death of my desktop pc. After transferring my music files, I found that wmp is not working properly, although realplayer works perfectly. I prefer wmp, but it simply doesn't. The symptoms are:
    1. it shows all media in the library even if the music library is full of music when seen with explore.
    2. If I select a file in Explorer, it will play in wmp and is added to the library, but no other files cannot be added.
    2. library management does not work because after pressing 'manage libraries', then 'music', nothing else appears.
    3. There is no sheet set for extraction of the files (just a white in the location box) and 'change' has no effect.
    I tried the troubleshooting fix, which simply says that my mediaplayer library is corrupt, but nothing else.
    I also tried to remove appsdata/microsoft/mediaplayer files and even entire directory after checking the tips from microsoft on the net for another user. WMP is
    supposed to automatically rebuild the library and start again, but she just starts with a library empty unless any of the symptoms above are fixed.
    I understand that wmp cannot be uninstalled and reinstalled, if anyone has any suggestions for my next step? As I said, the music library itself should be fine as Realplayer works very well.

  • my windows media cannot read a file because it does not support the code, with which it has been compressed. What program is best to open it

    the file is BHS1_Dwayne.rpc
    I'm confused why I can't open it. Is there a way I can change the file type or use a general program

    Hello

    You may encounter this error message for the following reasons:

    (a) the file type is supported by the drive, but the file was compressed by using a codec that is not supported by the player.

    (b) the file might have been encoded with a codec that is not supported by Windows Media Player. If this is the case, Windows Media Player cannot play the file.

    Windows media player will play only files, if it supports this type of file.

    Please see the article which gives you information on the types of media files that supports Windows Media Player: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/316992

    If the files are not supported by Windows media player, then you will need to use a few players from third party that supports this file format.
