Codecs: Frequently asked questions
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/codecs-frequently-asked-questions

All you need is good Codec - get these if 32-bit.

-Free - CCCP also get free tool of insurgents
http://CCCP-project.NET/

FFDSHOW - free
http://sourceforge.NET/projects/ffdshow/

Check here:

Plug-ins for Windows Media Player
http://www.Microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/plugins.aspx

---------------------------------------

VLC needs, of no use so usually Codec as a backup when asked to support associations of files just say no.

VLC - free
http://www.videolan.org/VLC/

-------------------------------------------------------------

If 64 bits and you need codec.

Read this 1st and go that route, or use the one below. (Vista or Windows 7)

http://www.Vistax64.com/sound-audio/152850-Vista-codec-pack-32bit-64bit-Media-Player-codecs.html

--------------------------------------------------------------------

If 64-bit - can run WMP in 32 or 64 bit mode.

Or try these: download - SAVE - go to the place where your put them RIGHT CLICK – RUN AS ADMIN.

For 32-bit use these - OR the 32 bit ones listed above which I prefer.

K - Lite Codec Pack 8.0.8 (or newer)
http://www.codecguide.com/

Use them for 64-bit:

K - Lite Codec Pack 5.5.0 (64-bit) (or newer)
http://www.codecguide.com/

-------------------------------------------------------------

You know that you use WMP 32 or 64

Change, modify or value 64-bit Windows Media Player 11 (WMP11) in Windows Vista x 64 as default (or WMP12 - Windows7)
http://www.mydigitallife.info/2007/01/19/switch-change-or-set-64-bit-Windows-Media-Player-11-WMP11-in-Windows-Vista-x64-as-default/

-------------------------------------------------------------

And you can use it when necessary because no codex is usually required.

    Hello SUNCITYDAVIS,

    ·         Remember to make changes to the computer (hardware or software) before having this problem?

    ·         Do you get this error during playback of all media files or any size of file in particular?

    ·         This happens when you play multimedia files stored on your computer as well?

    The error indicates that there could be some missing codecs for the file format, you are trying to play with Media Player.

    You can see the article that will give you information about the codecs:

I can read a file and then 10 minutes later the same file will not play.  Sometimes after the error message, if I don't click Close, the video is not yet but the audio will not.

    I'm on a laptop HP DV5 with vista 32-bit and 4 GB memory such that shipped HP (Yes, 4 concerts and 32-bit).

    I don't know if it was related, but IE7 would continually fail to open, click on through the windows and should be completely closed.  essentially the WMV and IE are fails miserably on this laptop, and it was only 6 months old.  Firefox fixes my problem of browser.

    How can I fix this WMV as I can't UN/reinstall with Vista?

    I ran sfc/scannow after completion of the analysis, the results were that "windows resource protection finds corrupted but files could not solve some of them" gives then refers to where the cbs.log file is located. I tried to open the cbs log, and he says that access is denied.

    UPDATE: there seems to be a conflict between WMP and any other application that opens which can play the video with sound.  When I close firefox, and then the videos and sound can play (these same questions happened on IE7 and firefox was installed just yesterday).  I met the same problem with more than Pinnacle video editing software.  Is it possible to change a parameter with WMP as there is no sharing violation during a different application can play the video?

  • Windows media player 11 in XP does not play DRM files

    I have a new installation of SP3 and the latest WMP11 on XP Home.

    I get this error when I try to play any DRM file any provider:
    http://www.Microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/Webhelp/default.aspx?&mpver=11.0.5721.5262&ID=C00D11B1&ContextId=71&OriginalID=80070057
    You met the C00D11B1 error message when you use Windows Media Player.
    Original Original error error Code
    80070057 one or more arguments are invalid.

    All other types of video or audio files that are not protected by DRM play without problem, so there is no problem with the audio device or the ID3 headers because none of the DRM files I've tried are MP3s.

    Many hours of research I find that the error is returned for various problems. I tried all the solutions, and none of them solve the problem.  It may be missing or conflicting codecs like all types of files not DRM play without problem. The quartz.dll is recorded and uncorrupted. I reinstalled WMP11 several times. I have reset the DRM with Microsoft tools both Netlix and individualized WMP11 using several MS individualazition sites and by force using the command-line of the several times with each reinstall.

    The last thing I tried is to use the resetDRM tool and not to individualize and then installed Amazon Unbox for rentals and video purchases. I ran the troubleshooting included in Unbox and let individualize WMP11, then troubleshooting reported no problems with my set-up. I downloaded a free file short Amazon and although he'll play the Amazon unbox player, trying to read the file in WMP11 always returns the same error as before and therefore trying to play one of the other DRM files I have.

    If someone has another solution or an idea of what to check that the usual suspects?

    Hello

    Sometimes, this problem can be caused contributions file included with the MP3 ID3 headers. Make a copy of the file and then use an ID3 tag non - editing program Microsoft to remove or reset the file's ID3 headers.

    Caution:

    • Try to remove ID3 headers might damage the file and make it unplayable. Therefore, always make a copy of the file before editing.
    • Using third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.
