Cisco Media Player will not play my media after Windows 7 upgrade

Last week I upgraded my operating system to Windows Vista Ultimate 64 to Windows 7 Professional.  I own a player DMP-100 which is directly plugged in my G from Linksys WRT54GS wireless router.  My computer is also connected to the router, so this problem is not a wireless issue, but it wouldn't surprise me if it turns out be associated with a.  When Vista was in charge, the DMP-100 router and Cisco Media Player is fine, although I had a devil of a time in the set up.  When I decided to upgrade to Windows 7 Professional, I realized because the BONES were inconsistent that the upgrade would eliminate all applications and I have to reload everything.

When I rebooted Lela and the Cisco Media Player, I have none of the problems that I had with Vista in the configuration.  However for some reason, the program does not play my media files.  There is a default error message coming saying the Cisco Media Server can be turned off.  This is not the case.  More when I select a streaming radio station, the player, the server and software work fine.  I feel, but the server isn't really pointing to my library, the library opens upward in the software.  I unplugged and reset the player several times.  I also deleted and reloaded the server & software media a number of times.  I always get the same results.

I don't like on radio stations.  I just want to be able to play my music and playlists. Anyone facing this problem before, and if so, is there a reason and a solution for this?

(Mod Note: edited post for the respect of the directive.) (Thank you!)

Eureka!  It's the firewall after all.  I thought I had everything checked when I added the AV Media Server and made sure the Cisco Media Player has been activated too.  Once I disabled the firewall and restarted, the press began to play as it should.  If something was definitely not right in the firewall.  It turns out that I was a fool and never saw the 'advanced settings' until I read about it in WIndows help (something I should have done at the beginning).  It was like a slap in the face.  Even if the programs were activated, there is no rule created for TCP and 8015 remote port.  It was clear as soon as I knew where to look.  I created a new outbound rule to allow TCP access port 8015, and the program worked as if it was never a problem.

I want to thank you two people who have helped me through this and patience you while I flinched around this application and operating system.  It was a total exercise in frustration, but also that of the discovery.  I really appreciate your help.  I thank you and my audio system thanks you too!

  • Why Windows Media Player will not validate my copy genuine Windows to upgrade to version 11?

    I had a problem with a new MP3 player that would produce an error in WMP whenever I tried to synchronize with him so I went to upgrade to version 11 of WMP, but now I don't have access to the program at all because it will not be validated to complete installation despite my copy of windows is genuine (I even checked this with MS directly) & will not remove WMP version 11 to allow me to return to my previous version 10 so I have no access to the program or my libararies to music, I've built.  How can I get the validation complete on an older albein but authentic version of windows so I can use this program once again?

  • My windows media player will not play a DVD

    My windows media player will not play a DVD: Microsoft Windows 95 Version 5.1 (Build 2600.XP_SP3_gdr.111025 - 1629:Service Pack 3).  Download a free version of media player to play the DVD?  Please tell me the name of the upgrade and where to find the free download version, if so.  Thank you!

    First thing that you do not run windows 95 if your build number is 2600.XP_SP3 it is a build number of windows XP.  Second, you will not be able to play DVDs using this version of windows and media player only.  The reason for this is DVD is a standard that a group of companies shut down and basically, they demand rights fees to use, it codec, which you don't have. You will need get a program that has integrated these codec (or find them somewhere).  Your best option for this is to completely abandon the but of the using Media player to play your DVD (unless you are looking to buy another piece of software).  There is a free option that I use on my machine Windows 7 Basic its called VLC is a free player that makes just about every format out there (not sure Bluray).  VLC uses its own codec (I think it's developed for the linux community orginially) rather than using the codec of the industry.  You can find the program at http://www.videolan.org/

    Hi rpwerner,

    Please use the forum for Support of Vista,

    This is a codec package from Microsoft you want to download to see if it will be useful.  Also, try to update your Windows Media Player and Windows Update to get the latest version of the codec required to play the type of media.

    You can also use your favorite search engine to look for codec packs available on the web to help you read the content.

    NOTE:

    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.

  • Windows media player will not play my downloaded movies.

    Original title: windows media player will not play my downloaded movies, so I know very lil on computers! Please help me!

    I have LimeWire. I downloaded several movies and can't watch them. When I try, it automatically showed the windows media player, and then displays a message saying "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. "I looked for updates, perhaps thinking that I needed one, he says: there is no availiavle. I use the latest version of windows media player. any help would be greatly appreciated!

    It's really a simple question, easy to fix. But if you are really not that familiar with the computer, you may want to ask a friend who knows enough to help you.

    You can show it to your friend...
    What you need is to 'google' for a FREE video converter.
    Use the converter and changge movies in WMV file formats. (Sticking with the formats WMV, nothing else).
    Once the conversion is complete, you can play these movies in your Media Player.

    However, there is another alternative. Install a 3rd party media player called VLC. He plays any video fromats.
