    I'm missing codecs for windows media player 11.0.6002.18311 any way I can reinstall it or get download missing codecs?

    Finally, I fixed my problem of codec.  It turns out that it is the 6.9.2.26 codec DIVX version.  I uninstalled all DIVX software and re-installed 6.8.5 and now everything works.  Windows Media Player 11 now play AVI encoded with mjpg, as well as Adobe first Elements 4 camera.  In addition, first elements will now load a DX50 encoded AVI, who had stopped working as well.

  • codecs for windows media player

    I have the windows media player 11 on windows XP. I was able to "burn" the many CDs in the past. Now I can listen to mp3 music, that I have loaded on it, but can "burn" a copy on a CD, same with music, I 'burned' before. X red lights next to each song and said that there is error COOD - 11 7 or COOD-BC2. I found and would be dl and installed: MicrosoftFixit.wu. ; K Lite_Codec_Pack_790_Basic; XP_Codec - Pack_2.5.1; Media.Player.codec.Pack.v4.1.1. I have restart fterwards, none of them doesn't seem to help. Is there a newer package of codec I need? What I am doing wrong?

    of jmorris 108:

    OMG! I fixed it! :)
    I found and dl had installed this package of codec, from a free site, then the computer restarted:
    Media.Player.codec.Pack.v4.1.1.Setup.
    As a big test, I even used a CD - R that I erased first. It worked fine! I'm listening to the Cd that I made while typing this.

    The "K-Lite 79', rec had in an article posted above has done nothing but take me to his website with a lot of confusing instructions and rec including many dl to use?

    Thanks again for your help.

    p.s. I would still like to know things, I asked above: I'm sure it will come soon, and I would like to know how to do these things.

    Where this command prompt window? I checked in the Control Panel, user accounts, I am registered as an administrator already. I never use the guest account.

    ? the Start button in the lower left corner of the screen? mine has not 'start' or a window to type in? Start on another program? where do you mean? I see nothing like WMP either? I checked in the Control Panel, I am registered as Administor already

  • AVCHD missing codecs for Windows Media Player

    Somehow the codec for. MTS and. Video AVCHD M2TS files have been removed from the Windows Media Player support files. It is possible that the DivX codec, I have installed third party announced on the Internet may be the culprit. (I have since uninstalled this application.) But because Microsoft does not allow me to download a new copy of WMP, I don't know how to restore these codecs. It's embarrassing because I am a videographer and have designed and built my premium system for HD video work.

    As a side note, I have Cyberlink PowerDVD which will play Blu - Ray and other MTS and M2TS files, but I much prefer to use WMP. Suggestions how to recover my WMP components? Thanks for your suggestions.

    Thanks for your suggestions. I tried everything that you and other recommended without success, but done to restore my drive system from a backup system 3 - months. Once that all the drivers and third-party programs updates (automatically in most cases), everything worked well, and I didn't have to reinstall my Windows 7 Pro. I'm happy now. Thanks again.

    ================================
    In some cases, there may be multiple instances of
    WMP running.

    Try to open the Task Manager and look for the instances
    from: wmplayer.exe and complete the process on each of them.

    These songs have been copied to my computer from the CD that I bought at retail, and have played several times.  Is there a process where they can be reinstated? I don't know if it's the right word, but I hate having to download individual licenses for these songs. And why doesn't IE throw me on the internet as soon as the download license screen happens?  Do I have to uninstall the update?

  • Hey ~ I need help in Windows Media Player 12, remove album art!

    Hey ~ I need help in Windows Media Player 12, I got some song I want to add in the album art, but I had a song I add in a hard cover and I can't remove... so pls help

    Hi VX-savers,

    Thank you for using the Microsoft Forum.

    Permanently remove the Media Player 12 album art:

    (1) you can click on View (WMP12),

    (2) choose the columns.

    (3) turn off the Album Art box, and you're done.

    Before performing this operation activate windows to show hidden files:

    (1) open the computer,

    2) click on tools, located on the top toolbar.

    (3) then Folder Options.

    (4) then click on the view tab, and then look for the element that shows the hidden files, folders and drives and check this option.

    This is where the cache. Find and remove.

    Windows 7 Media Center has its own cache of album art, where he recorded the album art thumbnails (Windows 7-cache):

    C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\Microsoft\eHome\Art Cache
    (with the corresponding "USERNAME").

  • Is there a possibility that MusicBrainz can be added as a data provider for Windows Media Player

    When you use Windows Media Player, I was hurt a lot to identify my music. A lot of music I have is not available in the Microsoft music meta service database. What gives? Would be nice if Microsoft could be added to their database. MusicBrainz is a big data provider for Windows Media Player and would make it easier for information about the available media. Data MusicBrainz are permitted in the public domain and some under Creative Commons (CC) license. I don't think that Rovi has a contract saying to Microsoft data to use. I can cite other data in addition to the AMG providers: Journal of CD Japan, CD newspaper China, ZACR DBS and feedback from users. I can almost guarantee you if Microsoft used the MusicBrainz data, Windows Media Player would be much easier for the Organization of the music. Data MusicBrainz are much better quality than WMP user feedback data.
