Hello
- What version of Windows are you using?
1. it is possible that you are missing the codec to play the file or it is clashing with other codec files.
2. the link provided below lists supported by Windows Media Player file format.
It does not list the AVCHD or. MTS files supported file format directly:
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/3169923. yet we cannot be sure at this point that the issue is due to interference with some files.
Method 1:
Alternatively, you can perform a restore of the system to a previous point, when the issue was not present. The System Restore tool uses points of restore to return the system files and settings to an earlier point in time. You can use it to restore the operating system to a point in time where you have not experienced the problem.Note: When you use System restore to restore the computer to a previous state, programs and updates that you have installed are removed.
To do this, there must be a restore point from the system in which the connection was successful.
Please refer to the below of the help links on performing a system restore.
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/what-is-system-restore
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/system-restore-frequently-asked-questionsMethod 2:
You can determine which codec was used with a specific file; read the file in the player, if possible. When the file is playing, right-click the file in the library, and then click Properties. On thefile tab, look at the Audio codec and Video codec sections.Then you can uninstall any installed codec and install that you need to do the job file.
If you have several codec for the single file to work they can clash and cause problems.

What is the latest version of Windows Media Player compatible with WM 6.5?
I have a HTC Touch Pro 2 running Windows Mobile 6.5 smartphone. What is the latest version of Windows Media Player, I can use?
You can not.
Your question was not entirely clear.
WMP is for XP, not the HTC device. If you have Windows mobile on your HTC, then it will be a Media Player built into it. If you have the latest version, AFAIK you update from 6.5 to what is the latest version of Windows Mobile. If its 6.5, then you already have the latest version.
You can also see the MS Windows Mobile...
See you soon,.

Cannot use the feature set in windows media player for Onkyo TX - NR609 Receiver Media
Original title: Onkyo TX - NR609 Receiver Media
Hi all
I have the Onkyo TX-NR609 and it works great except for streaming music from windows media player. When I click on the 'play to' it will show the name of the amplifier and model number which I click on and then it opens the player where it will then tell me that "an error has occurred on the device" and then she'll tell me under the song that tries to open that "the device cannot be controlled."
I have no idea what could be the cause and that it is a little frustrating is an understatement, onkyo iphone app works fine and I am able to listen to different radio stations as well as I have access to my windows media player via dlna library but it is a bit tedious so I don't tend to use it as well.
Anyone had similar problems? If so I would appreciate any help you could offer, I was hoping it would be more directly towards the front and then it and exchanging the receiver for one with apple airplay but it brings another problem of having to transfer music between laptop-itunes-iphone/ipad then invert to remove the music and then do the same bloody back and forth. Apple had to do complicated things don't have.
I am using windows 7 32 bit
Hello
Please contact your manufacturer to check if there are any parameters must be defined for Windows Media Player recognize the device control settings.

Cannot use the feature set in windows media player for Onkyo TX - NR509 Receiver Media
I have the Onkyo TX-NR509 and everything works fine except for streaming music from windows media player. (I can sink my iPhone to the receiver box and can even navigate to my music box cylinder head and all the Games very well).
When I click with the right button on a song and select "play to" and then select the amplifier box "play to" appears and after a while an error message appears "cannot retrieve information about the UPnP Server media."
My laptop is a HP Pavilion dv7 (Windows7 64-bit)
I made a few simple troubleshooting;
1. under Network TX-NR509 shows as a support device and I installed the drivers.
2. I checked the options of streaming media and my receiver is set to "allowed".
3. in WMP, I did of course "allow the remote control of my player" and "automatically allow devices to read my media" are both checked
4 reboot the router & mobile.
I have no idea what could be the cause and to say it's frustrating is an understatement.
I'd appreciate any help you could offer.

Cannot change the location of the RIP file in Windows Media Player after losing Windows Home Server
I got my place to rip on my windows-based server that had catestrophic failure. So I went to another WHS that I have. But since then, I could not change the location of the file rip in my Media Player.
It seems that the problem is that it fails to find the location of the old server, gone, when I switch to tab EXTRACT music in WMP options. I say this because it take a long time to draw only a tab. And when I click the button change under music Rip to this place, it does nothing. I get no errors, but nothing happens. It is as if I never pressed the button. There is no delay or anything. And I can go and do other things immediately.
How can I convince Media Player than the location should not be verified so I can put a new location to rip music to?
Hello
Thanks for the reply. I tried the steps you recommended. But unfortunately, it has not changed the problem.
However, she, it was pretty clear that something of the old MSS was always in the way. You could tell by the delay that made the selection of menu. So I went in MP, to organize - manage the music library. And sure enough, still listed as the default location is the old MSS. I've selected and tap on delete. Without delay, he removed and automatically changed the default location to a local drive. Problem solved! Now I can put my location of rip at ESM again and all is well again.
Thanks again for your help.
