• Where can I get directions to EXTRACT only the audio of a DVD with Windows Media Player v11

  Have investigated this question on the NET and seen various solutions (freeware), but I have just started using WMP to migrate my CD music in MP3 format.

  I have some great DVD rip also I want. Any direction is appreciated!

  Hi PEL7176,

  Windows media player only supports the extraction of CD and DVD not.

  You may need to use a third-party software to perform this procedure.

  NOTE: Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be resolved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

• 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.

  Up to what a few days ago, I could download music (mp3)... put them in files... so being able to move to Windows Media Player and create playlists. The songs are all had small blue and white MP3 icon.  It was great. Didn't matter if they come from youtube or has been downloaded sites and e-mail.

  I had a virus and just had the computer repaired and recharged.  Now all the mp3 files have the Red helmet icon and play on the music app.  I really don't like this app and would like to change back to the old icon mp3.  The computer has always had Windows 8 with the music app, but it never came in the image before. I know that Windows Media Player is not the best, but it worked great for what I had with my music.  It seems that I can't do playlists on the media player more... He goes to the application of music and play on xbox music.

  Please help me to recover from my years 50 era mp3. (I'm not a 'great' computer person, so I'd appreciate any help)

  Thank you very much...

  Hi Paul,.
   
  The probable cause of this problem could be due to the 'Windows Media Player' is not defined as music player by default on your computer.
   
  In Windows 8, Windows Media Player is more the default program to open files of music such as MP3 files.  If you want to make sure Windows Media Player is the multimedia player by default as if it was in previous versions of Windows, please follow the methods in the links below.
