• Cannot play wmv videos windows Explorer

  People send me wmv files by e-mail.  If I click on them, they don't play and I get a message on about cannot run this type of file.  If I download the wmv on the computer (I use W7), I can then play.

  I tried the solution on this site, but do not see the same items of menu appearing on this solution.  (Possible w7 vs XP or vista?).

  If I swich to Firefox, the wmv file plays very well.

  I guess it comes to web mail, and you are using IE, is this correct? Have what solution you tried?

  Unfortunately, it is a common problem and is caused by the e-mail client or the web browser not related the correct file for WMP type. The only solution is to manually save the attachment to disk hard (as you have already seen by yourself).

• No sound in 3g 2 files, error "Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The player does not support the format you are trying to play. »

  Original title: cannot get audio from video .3g2 (Windows 7)

  I have a number of videos that were recorded on a Motorola phone to format .3g2, when I played against them in windows XP Pro using what was the most recent media player, they played very well and the audio was present.

  I've since upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate and have found that videos will play with media player sound is not output.

  I tried different players like VLC (same result, no sound) and came across one called SUPER from erightsoft which indeed works and allows me to re - encode to .wmv BUT when I do and you try to read the .wmv I encounter an error:

  "Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The player does not support the format you are trying to play. »

  When I clikc on help, I am led to a page with links on THIS forum.

  So here I am.

  Can someone explain what is happening, why it happens and how / if I can convert them into a playable (with audio) .wmv friendly format?

  Thank you

  Hi UbinTook,
  
  You found this message from Windows Media Player due to one of the following reasons.
   
  a. you try to play a file that is not supported by the player.
  b. you are trying to play a file that the player does not support, but the file was compressed by using a codec that is not supported by the player.
   
  Step 1:
   
  Confirm that you are trying to play a supported file type. The following article lists the types of files (formats) supported by Windows Media Player.

• Windows Media Player cannot play audio files

  Hi, I have Toshiba laptop, this is my baby, and all of a sudden I can't play sounds! When I click to play a song in windows media player, it says:

  Windows Media Player cannot play the file because there is a problem with the audio device. It might not be a sound device installed on your computer, it can be used by another program, or it may not work properly.

  I tried everything and I'm on my last nerve! Basically, I'm rubbish with computers, I do not understand this at all, I followed all the ways suggested by the section 'aid' in my computer and I can't always listen to 'The Feeling!' Please help, I'm going crazy here!

  Yes my friend. The computer world is really not easy to understand, and sometimes I wish that I could no longer live the island of computer.
  but you know, the development never stop.

  OK, now your problem; have you checked the Device Manager?
  You don't see any yellow exclamation next to the sound card?

  I think that you should first try reinstalling the audio driver. Of course, it s a very tips but especially it works essentially ;)

• Error "Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The player might not support the file type or does not support the codec used to compress the file' when try to play wav or midi files.

  Original title: WMP "can't play wav or midi.

  Using WMP 11 on Windows XP SP3.

  Windows Media Player has somehow forgotten how to play wav or midi files. Doubleclicking either of these file types give an error "Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The player might not support the file type or does not support the codec used to compress the file. " There is a button 'Close' and 'Web Help' which still informs me, "you met the C00D1199 error message... ". ». Following the advice given nothing less than useful.

  I can easily play these files with RealPlayer or VLC so I don't think it's a driver problem, and it wasn't a corruption right after installing the other players. WMP seems to work OK when playing music or AVI. And there is no harm to hear a sound (wav or midi) in Windows for various system events. Have already uninstalled/reinstalled WMP without result.

  Thanks for your reply.

  I have since determeined the problem comes from an updated codec package I installed a few weeks ago. These codecs were from Shark007 which I believe is a Microsoft MVP. Use the codecs from this site for a number of years without any problems so I did not initially suspect it was the source of the problem. I uninstalled the codec pack and installed K-light package and everything seems to be Ok now. Now, I'll be in contact with the members of this forum.
