• Question on the Windows Media Player privacy setting

  I've been using Windows media player for almost a decade, like many other people, but I never really paid attention to all those defining what affects privacy in WMP.  Now, I have a few questions about these privacy setting.

  I read in the windows Help article, if I check on "update my music files by retrieving the news media of the internet " in the Privacy tab on the Options in Windows Media Player dialog box, it is said that ' indicates if the player will automatically obtain and update missing media information for music files in your library. If the information is available. If this check box is selected, the Player tries to update any missing media information in the files by sending data about them to a database of Windows Media. "

  Here is a link to the page that explains more about the configuration of the protection of personal information in WMP11.

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/products/Windows-Media-Player/11/privacy-statement?locale=409&geoid=F4&version=11.0.5721.5280&UserLocale=409#section_6

  My question is that if I turn the setting (which was on), this means that my music in my library files are sent on a windows media database?  or just a piece of information about the file are sent to them?

  Let's say I have a family video that I created with my own camera in AVI file format and it ' in my library.  If the setting I mentioned above is enabled, the video files are also sent to the database of windows media, or somewhere?   There is nothing to hide, but I really don't want my own private music which will be sent to anywhere else on my computer that's why I really want to know what kind of data or information about the file are sent to the windows media database to retrieve information from the media.

  also what about the customer experience improvement program in the drive configuration? ("I want to help makeMicrosoft software and services even better by sending Player to check data use versMicrosoft" on the Privacy tab on the dialog option in the player)  I did not know until now, but the setting has been activated on my player... If it's on, my personal files in my library are sent to Microsoft? According to the article, I've read it doesn't seem like it, but I don't know and want to make sure.

  I'm sorry for the long long entry... but if anyone can help me with the answer, I would really really appreciate it!

  Thank you very much

  As for the 1st setting, audio/video files certainly is not sent to Microsoft (which would require anyway a lot too much bandwidth). WMP only sends the metadata, such as title, artist, length etc.

  On the 2nd parameter, the privacy statement for the Customer Experience Improvement Program is at http://www.microsoft.com/products/ceip/EN-US/privacypolicy.mspx . After that, no personal file will be sent (I don't see how those that might be useful to Microsoft). If you are still not sure, you can always disable this setting without side effects.

• Tips on how to make Windows Media Player DVD playback are not the player of Tosh

  I don't want to use the Toshiba Media Player pre-installed to play the DVD, I want to use the Windows Media Player installed. I can't change the default to WMP in the Panel DVD player as the only options are Player Toshiba or Nero.

  WMP can play CDs, MP3 etc but cannot even play DVDs in the drive. Anyone got tips on how to change this?

  VLC Player is much better than WMP.

• How to upgrade Windows Media Player codecs

  Intel/Ligos Indeo Interactive 5.0 (IV50)

  Where can I find these CODECS for Windows Media Player Version 11 for Windows Vista updates?  Without them, some of my old files .avi not work or work properly.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  Hi KenF,

  The links are in my answer above:

  All you need is good Codec - get these if 32-bit.

  -Free - CCCP also get free tool of insurgents
  http://CCCP-project.NET/

  FFDSHOW - free
  http://sourceforge.NET/projects/ffdshow/

  Check here:

  Plug-ins for Windows Media Player
  http://www.Microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/plugins.aspx

  ---------------------------------------

  VLC needs, of no use so usually Codec as a backup when asked to support associations of files just say no.

  VLC - free
  http://www.videolan.org/VLC/

  -------------------------------------------------------------

  If 64 bits and you need codec.

  Read this 1st and go that route, or use the one below. (Vista or Windows 7)

  http://www.Vistax64.com/sound-audio/152850-Vista-codec-pack-32bit-64bit-Media-Player-codecs.html

  --------------------------------------------------------------------

  If 64-bit - can run WMP in 32 or 64 bit mode.

  Or try these: download - SAVE - go to the place where your put them RIGHT CLICK – RUN AS ADMIN.

  For 32-bit use these - OR the 32 bit ones listed above which I prefer.

  K - Lite Codec Pack 7.1.X (or newer)
  http://www.codecguide.com/

  Use them for 64-bit:

  K - Lite Codec Pack (64-bit) 4.6.X (or newer)
  http://www.codecguide.com/

  -------------------------------------------------------------
  You know that you use WMP 32 or 64

  Change, change or set 64 - Bit Windows Media Player 11 (WMP11) in Windows Vista x 64 as default
  http://www.mydigitallife.info/2007/01/19/switch-change-or-set-64-bit-Windows-Media-Player-11-WMP11-in-Windows-Vista-x64-as-default/

  And you can use it when necessary because no codex is usually required.

  My html code for integration of Windows Media Player in Firefox but not IE 8 problems recently developed framework. The player displays correctly at the beginning, but then repositions and resizes. It seems that my width setting is to honor, but not my height adjustment. Also, autoplay = "false" (or "0") is also not honored the video starts playing after the repositioning and resizing. I tried different code for integration with the same result. I have the correct Windows Media Player Firefox plugin and it is up-to-date. I tried the update to Firefox version 9.0.1, but the problem persists. I came across web postings applying substituting the parameters of plugin embed code. No workaround solution appreciated.
