• How can I play the audio stream with Windows Media Player 11 AAC?

  Hello

  I want to listen to a live stream of a Shoutcast radio station which is in AAC format. I want to play with my Windows Media Player 11 on Windows XP SP3. I still don't play. It seems that it is not supported by WMP 11, but if missing a codec, it should be automatically downloaded from Microsoft, since the option "Download codecs automatically" is checked in the options of WMP, and my security level in Internet Options is set by default.

  Y at - there a way or a codec plugin, so I can play the stream AAC on WMP 11?

  Thank you.

  Orban AAC/aacPlus Plugin will allow WMP 11 to play AAC streams. Note that you have to replace the http stream with icyx URL part, so to read your example AAC stream, you must enter icyx://109.234.157.154:2012 in WMP, via file - Open URL... (press Ctrl + M, if you don't see the file menu). Tim Baets

• How can I access my music files through Windows Media Player?

  OK, here's the facts:
  I have Windows Vista.
  Most of my music in my music is missing.
  I can view and listen to the music of "missing" in Windows Media Player (library).
  In Windows Media player, if I click on a song and 'open file location' need me for my music, and the file is not there.
  Looking for songs via the start menu or through my computer does not work.
  MP3 audio files are also missing.

  Not having access to the original files, I can't add music files individually to my mp3 (Windows Media Player lets you synchronize files only, and I don't want to lose a part of the 'missing' files I have on my mp3 using the Sync feature).

  How can I access my music? Clearly, it is still on my computer somewhere since I can play through Windows Media Player.

  Hello

  Step 1: Check what all records are controlled by the player. Then check these records, if the music file is present.

• How can I import playlist .pla files to Windows Media Player?

  I sync between my computer and my (old) mp3 a Philips something or other (I know if this is important). For some reason half of my playlists no longer appear on WMP. However, their corresponding .pla file is always on my mp3 player. I understand that .pla files are empty, but the link to the device and of course db under properties, I see that the pla files contain all the correct tracks. I want to restore these playlists on WMP. Please, is it possible to import these? I tried syncing my mp3 player to my computer by this is not not possible to drag and drop playlists.

  Can you still see the missing playlists on your hard drive?

  You can use Windows search to search for *.wpl and *.m3u, which should bring them up if they have not been deleted. In addition, please check the trash.

• Unable to read the .avi files with Windows Media Player 11 on XP

  Original title: Media player upgrade was worse than basic
  I recently updated my Player multimedia media Player 11 and now it won't play movies from AVI file that I used to be able to play easily on the outdated version. Why is this?

  Hello

  Do you have an error message when you try to play with Media Player AVI files?

  When you try to play a file that uses a codec that is not installed on your computer, Windows Media Player attempts to download the codec from a Microsoft server. If the
  Codec is available, the Windows Media Player installed on your computer, and then bed file. However, if the codec is not available on the server (for example, because)
  the codec not created by Microsoft), Windows Media Player displays a message that your computer is missing a codec.

  In some cases, the file you want to play uses a codec that is not available or compatible with Windows Media Player. When this happens, you may be unable to use Windows Media Player to play this particular .avi file.

  You can consult this article for a solution:

• Cannot play MPEG-4 video in Windows Media Player or Media Center from my Flip Video Camcorder

  I use Win 7 with Windows Media Player 12 and when I try to play a Flip Video camcorder, which is an MPEG-4 format, I get the error "Windows Media Player has encountered a problem while playing the file."

  I then help the option to select Web and it takes me a Microsoft page that describes the C00D11B1 error code.  Who has no sense to me because it speaks to my sound card and I can't read thie videos no problem via the Flip Video software supplied with the camcorder.

  I was under the impression that WMP 12 taken supported MPEG-4.  Also get the Error tyring to play videos through Media Center.   Any help is greatly appreciated.

  I use Win 7 7600 version 6.1

  I guess that the Flip Video software used a codec that is not Media Player. I was looking at the setting for the camera to see if it will save in another format.

• Impossible to play a video file, error: Windows Media Player cannot play the file because the required video codec is not installed on your computer.

  I am unable to play the video file and get the error "Windows Media Player cannot play the file because the required video codec is not installed on your computer."

  Can someone help me how to solve this problem. Thank you

  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.

• How can I change my dvd back to Windows Media Player association?

  CyberLink Power DVD Ultra 11

  I installed a Pioneer Bd writer and had to have the software to read BD disc.  I have installed Cyberlink Power DVD Ultra 11.  There are no questions on the installation who asked me if I wanted to play any type of disc with Power DVD.

  This is what is happening.  No disc starts with Windows Media Play not yet regular DVD or CD.  They all raise Power DVD.

  I have my default player for Windows Media Player, but that makes no difference.

  Thank you

  Files

  I agree that he should have asked you which types to associate the files, but you should be able to re - join those you want with WMP just by right clicking on one of them in Windows Explorer and then selecting open with, choose default program & choosing WMP while checking that the box "always use this program...". "is defined [always, that's when even I think that].

  [Open the dialog box can be a little misleading.]  [If WMP is not one of the choices available to you, look immediately under these choices & there is a small arrow down which will reveal many more choices including WMP].

  You will need this procedure for each type of file you want to associate to WMP again.

  Discs

  You will also need to go into Control Panel, Autoplay set discs to use WMP again.

• Ignore certain types of files with Windows Media Player

  When I'm in a hurry I get all the files in a folder and drag it to the Windows Media Player.  The files include the jpgs as album art.  When Windows Media Player encounters a file he doesn't know how to manage it up an error 'the Player Windows Media has encountered a problem reading the file'.

  How to make Windows Media Player to ignore certain file types?

  

  With a single click, you can sort files by type of file that would make easy is not to include them in your list of drag.

• 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.
