• CooD1197 of error in Windows Media Player

  cannot copy a cd. In the library the E drive mode is listed when I try to copy the cd wmp says that it cannot find the file

  Hey, trust

  o is the problem only with respect to a particular CD?

  o you are able to read files from the CD in Windows Media Player?

  Try these suggestions to solve the problem.

  1. check with another CD to watch if the problem is specific media.

   

  2. the specified error may occur in Windows Media Player due to one of the following reasons:

  • Your computer is not connected to the local area network (LAN) or Internet. Connect to the network or to the Internet and then try again.
  • The path to the file is not valid. If you typed a uniform locator resource (URL) in theOpen URL dialog box, make sure that the file name is spelled correctly and the path to the file is correct and then try again. If you clicked a link on a Web page, the link isn't valid.
  • The server is not online or is busy. Try again later.
  • Some reader network protocols are not enabled.
  • Proxy server for the player settings are not configured correctly. Verify that your proxy settings are correct and try again.

  To check your proxy server settings

  1 open Windows Media Player.

  2. on theTools menu, click Options , and then click the network tab.

  3. check your settings in theStreaming proxy settings area.

  Note

  • If you don't know what your proxy server settings should be, on thenetwork tab, select a Protocol, click Configure and selectautomatically detect the proxy settings or use Web browser proxy settings (available for HTTP protocol only).

  3. in addition, you can try to change some settings rip as the reduction in audio quality to rip the CD using different format, etc.

• 21 of Firefox opens not mp3s in Windows Media Player

  I put the option program of file type for the two 'windows media player' and 'request' and Firefox always opens the mp3 in a generic player in a new tab MP3s played in the popup from Windows Media Player (after download) fine in the latest version of Firefox 20.X. I tried to disable the Microsoft WMP plugin (the only way to prevent them from opening in a new tab using Quicktime was to disable the plugin (QuickTime).

  MIME MP3 settings in Quicktime format have been unchecked and the settings of Windows extension all are defined on Windows Media Player as the default player for MP3s.

  Hello sewing1243, 21 firefox now uses the codecs that are included in your operating system that allow him to directly read mp3 and mpeg (also for html5 videos). in order to disable that, enter about: config in the address bar of firefox (confirmed the message information where it appears) and search for the preference named media.windows - media - foundation.enabled. Double-click it and change its value to false.

  Another way to download files without tweaking the above-mentioned preference would be to click right on the link that leads to an mp3 file or right click on the drive in firefox and choose to download the file like that...
