Audio books and Podcasts in the Windows Media Library

• How can I play audio books and music to the same list of reading, in the same app on my iPhone?

  I don't really know where posting this because it applies to music and audiobooks and iTunes, but this corner of the support community seems most likely to be read by people with similar problems.

  I've got playlists in iTunes that are a mixture of Media type = Audiobook and Media type = music. In iTunes, they are in the same playlist, and I want to stay in the same playlist - they are language courses. But on my iPhone, digital audio books disappear from music and appear in iBooks (and in a book audio browser, the app I use audio books). It's the same playlist is now not only in two different playlists, but in totally different applications.

  Is there a way to play these files from the same application on my iPhone, rather than having spread them over two applications? I guess the most likely option is an application that includes all the audio files on the iPhone, not only music and audio books not only. Such an application exist?

  (Yes, I could theoretically change all in the music, or any audio book, but many of them have four-digit numbers, and if I change those files the track numbers will disappear and the playlists will be totally screwed.)

  Thanks in advance.

  Want very it is a third party application that can play audio books and music - particularly iTunes purchases items. You can certainly check the app store.

  But yes, the unit and the apps work as expected.

  Add items to the Windows Media Player library

  You can use the Windows Media Player library to help you organize your entire collection of digital media on your computer, including music, videos and photos. Once you add files to your library, you can read the files, burn mix CD, create playlists, sync the files portable music and video players and share files with other devices on your home network. There are several methods that you can use to add files to your library:

  • Follow-up of the files. When you start the player for the first time, it automatically searches certain folders by default on your computer for the photo files, video and music and then adds these files to your library. If ever, you add or remove files from these folders, the Player automatically update the library accordingly. You can change the folders the Player monitors if you store some of your digital media files in a location that will not be detected automatically.

  • Add media files that you play. When you play a file on your computer or on the Internet, the Player automatically adds the file to your library if it isn't already in your library. The reader does not automatically add a file that you play from removable storage media, a device removable storage, or on a shared network folder. For example, if you play a file that is stored on a CompactFlash card a data CD, or in a shared folder on another computer on your network, the player will not automatically add the file to your library.

  • Extract music from a CD. You can use the reader to extract the tracks of your audio CD. During extraction, the tracks are created as files on your computer.

  • Download music and videos from online stores. You can register with player online stores. Once you do, you can download music and video files from online stores.

It works but if I go back on the attachment and try to open it I get the windows window library.  I tried Samsung, PC manufacturer and they were useless. Can anyone help please?

• Get a fixed image and audio while playing a movie in Windows Media Player, also get the message: "network is too busy to read the file to its original quality.

  Original title: Windows Media Player

  When I go to play a movie using windows MediaPlayer all I get is an imagwe again with audio and this message 'network is too busy to read the file to its original quality. Also, all my other media playing programs read the video but are rather "lag". I think the problem is that I already used a program to download torrents called 'BitTorent' and maybe this has used up all my bandwidth or processing speed? Not really sure but would really like it if I could still use WMP and I'm looking for resolution to my problem?

  Thank you

• I went to play a DVD on my computer this evening and received this msg: Windows Media Player cannot play the DVD because no compatible DVD decoder is not installed on your computer.

  DVD decoder not installed?

  I went to play a DVD on my computer this evening and received this msg: Windows Media Player cannot play the DVD because no compatible DVD decoder is not installed on your computer.
  A few weeks ago, I played DVD on my computer. I would like to know what is happening. Any ideas/suggestions?

  I tried to play one of the same DVDs I played before... same message.  Nothing to my knowledge has been removed from my computer and I'm the only one with access... "very confused.

  Thanks if anyone can help.

  Yes, and if you install the utility on your system, you'll see all decoders.

  The utility will also tell you if a decoder is compatible or not.

  Using Media Player version 10 or 11?

  the utility tells me I have no decoder... the only thing I can think is that if I actually deleted it... I rarely remove anything because I do not add a lot... but it is possible a few weeks ago, I have to get rid of some things (I'm quite cautious because I'm not an expert).   It is the Media Player version 11, I was trying to use... but I rebooted now 10 to see if there was something to update related that mess.

  because I used the VLC Player successfully, I have not yet tried Windows Media Player (since WMP reloading and load the codec pack)

  So great to have the entry of a person who knows what he's doing.  Thanks again. I will try the Windows Media Player later and see if I have his use of return.

  Have a great day!
