  • 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multimedia media Player 11 and now it won't play movies from AVI file that I used to be able to play easily on the outdated version.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:

  • 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

    Tom

    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.

  • 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.

    Assem

    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...

  • I can't burn CDs of music with windows media player

    I always burned CDs of music in media player, but now when I drag the music to the right area, it does not say how much space is taken. Example: 58 minutes to 80 minutes.  It still reads 79 80 minutes. When I hit the button burn, it crosses the movements as the fire up to 99% complete, and he throws the disc, I get an error message. "Windows media Player encountered an error when burning. Check the burner is properly connected and that the disc is clean and not damaged. "How can the engraver not be properly connected when it is integrated into the computer? My husband thinks I got a virus on the computer, but I do not. The fact that media player is internal, it doesn't have a driver of t - he? Any help is welcome. Sue

  • Problem when trying to watch a webinar recorded with Windows Media Player

    I get an error saying that Windows Media Player cannot play the file. A network firewall might prevent the player to open the file by using the UDP transport protocol. If you typed a URL in the open URL dialog box, try using a different transport protocol (for example, "http:").  I'm watching a recorded webinar and may not have to work, can anyone help?

    Hi Flinnwin,

    Welcome to the Microsoft community. According to the description of the problem, you can't watch a webinar recorded with Windows Media Player. Provide the following information:

  • No reading DVD with Windows Media Player

    WMA crashed

    I used to use Nero on my old computer. I built a new computer and bought Vista and liked the use of Nero I installed it on Vista. During the installation it windows warned me that there is perhaps a conflict if I installed it. I went a head with him and of course, there was and nero would not work. I tried to uninstall it and was able to complete the removal of the program, because it has a conflict and stops. At this stage the WMP always worked very well. Recently, I installed a DIVX player... not by choice... I wasn't thjought I DL update or something, not a media player and pay any attention to any. So I removed the player and now I can't watch a DVD in my media player more. He tells me that windows media player has stopped working. I send the reports to help set and have nothing in return as in to solve the problem

    What are my options? Thank you!

    Hello casey_,

    Thank you for your response.

    In addition to the Bindu response, you can also try to perform a restore of the system to an earlier point before the installation of the program, and then check the issue. For more information about the use of system restore, please see the link below: System Restore

    If the problem persists, please relay the error message received when you try to play a DVD with Windows Media Player, and if the problem occurs when you try to play the DVD or single.

    Hello

    Your MP3 player should have 2 settings - MSC that should allow the player to be used as a
    external drive and PSG that is the parameter to use to sync with WMP11. Remove the MP3
    and restart the computer. Change the MP3 in MTP mode - it power off and plug it in.

    I hope this helps.

  • All of my files have been converted to open it with Windows Media Player. How can I change this back to normal?

    Hello.

    I don't know what I clicked at all initially, but now, most of my programs have been converted to open it with Windows Media Player, so that they cannot work.

    Even when I click on the system restore (to undo changes I've done previously), Windows Media Player opens and there will be a window that says that you can not read this .exe file.

    I'm stuck and I don't know how else to solve this problem. Help, please!
