How can I find the media player codec pack on my computer - most of the time the media player won't play a DVD
most of the drive media time will not play DVD, sometimes it will play CD's, but that is only when it wants to and by the way the DVD and CD are again at Best Buy
Hello
· Since when are you facing this problem?
· What is the format of the files that you play from the DVD?
Media Player 12 supports most of the formats and does not need any external codec packs: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Codecs-frequently-asked-questions

How can I find the current drivers for Windows Media Player?
When I try to open a file, I often get the message: your device uses an outdated driver is no longer supported by Windows Media Player. Then, the file may or may not play. How can I find the driver update. I use Windows 7 Home Premium on an HP laptop.
The drivers you want are not for Media Player, they are for your laptop until you get all the details of your model and go to the HP website and download the latest drivers especially to render sounds and display adapter.

How can I find the dpi of the iPhoto?
How can I find the dpi of the iPhoto?
The pictures in iPhoto have no assigned dpi. They are just a matrix of pixels and a width in pixels and a height of pixel.
When you export a photo from iPhoto, it will create an image file that may have assigned IP. You can see the dpi values when you open photo exported preview and open the Inspector in the Tools menu. For example, this picture has been exported with 180 dpi. But more important than the CIO is the size in pixels. It will show you the quality of the photo.
