  DVD will load successfully and play, but BlueRays won't, even if this computer has a BlueRay player and Cyberlink software to play.  It recognizes the title of BlueRay, seems to load the disc then returns to the initial screen and does nothing.  When I click on play, Cyberlink application if I want to restart or resume playback.  Either select the button comes back to me early in the process.  Any suggestions?

• Produced by PP media export AVi will not play the video portion on my Windows Media Player, why?

  It's basically it--so when I find my file exported in its folder and try to play my default player (WMP) by double clicking it, all I get is sound, it take a long time before loading and then I get the symbol notes usual white music on a blue background, and that the file is executed I only get the sound. But if I import it on my time line PP cs4 it's ok.

• Problem with Windows Media Player: "Server execution failed" and "files needed to display video are not installed or do not work properly.

  I have a problem with Windows Media Player on laptop Lenovo G780. My laptop is under warranty (bought a month ago), but technical support Lenovo told me that the Windows Media Player program is not covered by the warranty.

  And this is a problem:

  When I click on Windows Media Player - to about 0.1 sec I see it opens and closes the window and nothing happens.

  When I select a mp3 or wmv file and right-click with the option open with Windows Media Player - I get a message: "Server execution failed" - I checked that all services with 'Media' in the name are running.

  When I select a mp3 or wmv file and right-click with the open option with Windows Media Center - Windows Media Center opens with the message: "the files needed to display video are not installed or do not work properly.

  When I select a file mp3 or wmv and right-click with option open with Windows Movie Maker life - see the video

  I tried to turn / WMP and WMC - did not help
  Tried to run as administrator - did not help
  I don't see something suspicious under events

  What can I do else?

  Thank you

  I had the same problem and then by chance, I tried a video on YouTube and it worked for me. Here's how I went on this issue and solved my problem:

  1. go to the computer, then OS (C).
  2. you will need to open Program Files (x 86) and Program Files.
  3. go to Windows Media Player in Program Files (x 86) and open the folder.  Then, remove the wmplayer file.  You may need to work around the error TrustedInstaller.  I'll tell you that, in a moment.
  4. in Program Files, go to the same folder for Windows Media Player and select the same file again. Wmplayer.  Copy the file in another window open.  Copy ensures that if the question comes up again you can at least try to fix it again.
  This should be the end of your problem.  If you need to circumvent the TrustedInstaller question is how:
  1. right click on wmplayer and select Properties > Security > advanced > owner > Edit > other users and groups.
  2. Enter your username and then click on check names.  Click OK.
  3. close the dialog boxes as he has requested.
  4. open again the properties and click Security.  Select your username from the list and click on edit.  From there, select full control.
  This should give you full control over the removal of the original file for WMP and easily allow you to copy the other files (x 86) programs.
  Please let me know how it goes for your problem.

• .wma files will not play in WMP11

  Suddenly my music wma files will not play in WMP11. I have tried everything I know and read, nothing helps. So far I tried to convert the MP3 files is not working even in these programs (v3.0 have all Audio Recorder being one of them); I tried to delete the ID3 and all the other codes (HeadStrong ID3Kill v1.4), all what has been clear all my songs the album/song. etc - HUGE mistake! I tried to play in RealPlayer - still will not play wma files only mp3s; removed and reset the codecs - nothing happened. so on and so forth.

  What in the world is happening? I uninstalled my old version of WMP and installed more current. When I went to play the WMA in WMP11, I get an error that it can not play. It does not itself error code number, only this statement in error. I tried to restore my computer to a date and time earlier, he said that he could not change my Media Player to the previous version.

  I have more than 1,000 songs on my computer, I simply can't pull it all back in (for days and days), I copied them on 2 sticks of memory as backup, also HUGE mistake because them copied without albums and song titles.

  Help please!
