• I can't play DVDs in Windows Media Player 12 on Windows 7 Pro and get this error msg: Windows Media Player cannot play this DVD because there is a problem with the digital copy between your DVD drive decoder and video card protection.

  Hello, thanks for reading and helping me.

  I try to play a legitimate, belonging to DVD, but Windows Media Player 12 will not play on my computer Windows 7 Professional.  The DVD worked a few days ago, but all of a sudden, I get the following error message:

  "Windows Media Player cannot play this DVD because there is a problem with the digital copy between your DVD player and the video card protection decoder. Try to install a driver available for your video card.

  I did a lot of research of these forums and on the ' net.  Here are the suggested steps I tried without success:

  • I tried VLC player.  This works.  However, rather than use this workaround, I wish to find a solution to my problem WMP/WMC.
  • I tried several DVD for years over the last decade.  These DVD works on my laptop, also running Windows 7 Professional and the shark 007 codec.
  • I uninstalled my Shark 007 codec
  • I tried other codecs (K-Lite)
  • I assured that the latest drivers are installed on my video card, XFX ATI Radeon 5850
  • I tried to uninstall Nero 9
  • I tried to use the Windows 7 troubleshooting options:
  • > Reading and burning CD, DVD and Blu - ray (no problem)
  • > Windows Media Player DVD (no problem)
  • > Windows Media Player Settings (detects a problem, wants to restore factory settings, every time, no matter what happens)
  • A system restore to a time when the DVD was working did not resolve the issue
  • The different links in Microsoft, I found in this forum about this problem do not seem to be useful.  There is a link that points to the set-top boxes, but this page just says: "Windows 7 comes with a decoder.
  • I assured the latest driver is available by going to "Device Manager", right click on the drive, then click on "update driver software".
  • I assured that the latest firmware is installed directly from the manufacturer's website.
  • I tried to reset my DRM by renaming the DRM under C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows folder and by going to this Web site to upgrade:http://drmlicense.one.microsoft.com/Indivsite/en/indivit.asp?force=1
  • I've uninstalled and reinstalled Windows Media Player 12 and Windows Media Center via the function "functionality in Windows.

  I would be very grateful if a Microsoft technology could chime.  Thanks for your help!

  This is the message that I faced when I tried ti a watch a DVD I've seen countless times in y HP laptop.  I read some answers here, but I do not understand something they are trying to say.  I'm not technologically minded so pleaaaase can someone tell me what is happening?

  Hi Abigayi lMcFadyen,

  To prevent the illegal creation of digital copies of DVD, information on most of the DVDs are blurred. Your DVD decoder and Windows Media Player have software to copy protection that decodes the information on the DVD just before posting. If this software does not start successfully, you may receive this error.

  Method 1: You will have to perhaps download and install the latest plug-in to do this, see the link below

• My laptop is windows 7 and with most of DVD it says that there is a problem with the digital copy. I'm also having trouble changing the region

  the exact message is: "windows media player cannot play this DVD because there is a problem with the digital copy between your DVD drive decoder and video card protection. Try to install a driver available for your video card. When I click close it comes with this another message saying that my DVD system is set to the region one and I need to change it to region 2. I have change for the region, but he said: "Windows Media Player cannot play the DVD because the disc prohibits playback in your region of the world. You must obtain a disc that is intended for your geographic region. ». I don't know what to do.

  There is a chance that the free VLC Media Player
  would be to read your DVD without changing the region code.

• Windows Media Player 12 plays not DVD

  Hello, I have a new Windows 7 Ultimate, 64-bit system, running on a Gigabyte motherboard / Intel Core i7 920, built in the last days. I try to read commercial standard DVDs (e.g. Titanic) on the drive to DVD Samsung through a high-end Nvidia 1 GB graphic card, through Windows Media Player Version 12.0.7600.16415.

  NOTE: VLC Player works fully, showing that the material (audio / video) is properly installed.

  When you use the media player in Windows 7, I received the message "Windows Media Player cannot play this DVD because there is a problem with the digital copy between your DVD drive decoder and video card protection. Try to install a driver available for your video card. The options are 'Close' or 'Web Help', where the latter gave no information.

  This situation occurs through the display of several DVD media are OK.

  I downloaded a lot of codecs on the Net, ending up with very pixelated video and distorted sound under Windows 7 Media Player.

  I have now uninstalled these Codecs and VLC Player still works AOK.

  Where are you offering me I have Windows 7, 64-bit codecs, Windows Media Player Version 12.0.7600.16415 player?

  Hello

  This error "Windows Media Player cannot play this DVD because there is a problem with the digital copy between your DVD drive decoder and video card protection. Try to install a driver available for your video card"is normally related to the video driver being unsigned. If your driver is not signed, you will not be able to play protected content, including DVDs.

  Try to install the latest video driver and see if the problem persists.

  Thank you

• 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.

  May be that the video file format is not compatible with Windows Media Player.

  Options: -.

  1] download and install VLC Player. It's free and supports file formats more than WMP.

  2] download and install the codecs

  Personally, I prefer VLC Player-if you have that then not need to download and install the codec of any third party.
