• Cannot play .mp4 files on Windows Media Player, Version 11.0.6002.1811 extensions.

  My daughter to download a Youtube video on my desktop, and when I try to play, a message appears that says: "the selected file has an extension (.mp4) that is not recognized by Windows Media Player, but the player may still be able to play. Because the extension is unknown to the player, you should be sure that the file is from a trustworthy source. How can I get it to play .mp4 file extensions? I use WMP version: 11.0.6002.1811 and using Vista. Thanks in advance.

• Cannot play mp4 external drive, but still flow to 35.0 stuff

  35.0 running on windows 7 pro.

  I want to be able to play mp4 external drive and continue to spread. I could do this before updating 35.0 when I put media.windows - media - foundation.enabled to false. Now, it seems that I need to adjust the two who and media.play - stand alone to false, and then mp4 will open in media player classic (as I would like to). But the tumblr.com streaming will not work. He's right there.

  Here's the test:

  Configuring the application for mp4 to Media Player Classic seems to have no effect on the first event unless I do the topic: config changes, what jumps do test 2.

  This has worked before the update 35.0, whereby time firefox crashed and I lost ALL my settings configuration. Not sure why this has happened. Now, I can't get it working again.

• conventional media cannot play mp4 files, error message indicates codec for MP4 is missing

  Execution of media classic version 6.4.9.0 with Windows XP PRO with SP3 Version 3311.  These files ran before the recent windows updates.  I use Classic as a tool to learn how to improve my golf swing.  This is the only version where I can stop/reading/playforward and watch a frame at a time.  I have a file with Tiger Woods starts idling and I look to improve my game.  The error message indicates that the MP4 CODEC is missing.  Can update do I have to remove to make it work again or where I find the missing codec to download?  All other files are working except the MP4.

  As I said, it worked before without any problem.

  Do a system restore to an hour before
  the problem began could be worth a try.

• OS Sierra: Cannot play audio via bluetooth are involved during airtime

  Cannot play audio via bluetooth speakers during airtime to my TV.

  Has been able to do before the OS Sierra update. Now if I switch to my bluetooth receiver in the system prefs-> sound-> menu "exit" it disconnects completely airplay. This happens both with mirroring and use as a separate display.

  Is there something that I am missing on the behavior of this feature? Or is this a bug in the new OS?

• QuickTime can play mp4 (AAC AVC) file normally but was unable to convert this file.

  I had a file mp4 AAC (LC) + STROKE (high @L5, CABAC/11RefFrames, resolution 1280 * 800), my QuickTime (Version 10.4 (855)) can play normally on Mac 10.11.4. But when try to export this file mp4 with QT to 720 p or 480 p, it failed and reported the error message "cannot decode media data cannot be decoded." It can be damaged.'.»

  QuickTime can play well, it means that this file can be decoded normally and successfully. But when export in 720 p or 480 p, this means that this transcoding is inescapable (1280 * 800-> 1080 * 720 or 640 * 480). It's weird.

  Is there a limitation of QuickTime but not any official introduction to this topic? How can I solve this problem? Thanks in advance.

  Best regards

  -Juanny

  

  the news media of the mp4 file that cannot be exported by QT is as above.

• Windows Media Player cannot play back the video DVD.

  Windows Media Player cannot play back the video DVD. You may need to adjust your Windows display settings. Open display settings in Control Panel, and then try to lower your screen resolution and color quality settings.

  Original title: Windows Media Player cannot play back the video DVD. You may need to adjust your Windows display settings. Open display settings in Control Panel, and then try to lower your screen resolution and color quality settings.

  I was troubleshooting video playback issues throughout the morning after the reconstruction of a machine with a fresh install of W7 Ultimate, shot a few questions there.

  The first and foremost reason I couldn't play THE VIDEOS was due to the ATI Rage video card that was in the machine, proved that this card was not compatible for playback of DVD video on W7.  No problem with the system of video files (.avi, .mpg, .mp4, etc.), only reading DVD.  Disabling this card and media player running with a standard VGA device allowed me to play regular DVD movies very well.

  Another question, I stumbled on was with burned copies of the DVD, it turned out that my system DVD players, (2, one is a HP630E and the other is a typical ATAPI DVD DD internal 8 x 16), have a problem with playing movies engraved on DVD - RW discs.  Playing discs DVD-R worked well on this system.

  So in your case I try to disable the video device and let the system first use a VGA Standard, if your video plays well then check with the making of video for a updated driver device, saying "you have made any changes" does not mean that the system did not have a bad patch somewhere...
