• How to disable the pop up "Windows Media Player cannot download the information on the media... "after the extraction of a CD without activation of network connectivity.

  When I copy a CD with Windows Media Player, I get the message pop up after the investigation period is over: "Windows Media Player cannot download the media for this CD information. The other titles, artist, and album will be identified as "Unknown" in your library. For best results, connect to the Internet or manually add media for CD information. »

  I know that the message appears when I turn on the setting to allow WMP to connect to the internet to get information about the media, but I don't want WMP does. What I want is a button I can push on the pop-up that says "don't show this message again" (similar to the warnings seen in internet explore). How can I disable this pop-up window without activating the internet connection option.

  In case you're wondering, the data from the internet are incompatible in the naming convention so when I rip an audio book, so I can listen to my mp3 player, I can't completely post-processing script because not all of the disks in a set have a coherent on the slopes or even name the disc etc. At least drives marked 'Unknown' is consistent and so easy to script for the reduction to a single MP3 file.

  Since the last 2 months I find that my Windows Media Player cannot play the videos. After having tried many, I installed the third-party Codec such as GOM Player, GOM DECODER and GOM converter on an experimental basis. For all its operation I installed that for the second time (test period = 1 month). Now, I found some unusual - the entire screen with prop-up Windows began to appear "foggy, unusually large screen, Visuality fuzzy." So GOM was 'uninstalled' in the menu 'program & feature. When he learned from the Microsoft Forum I installed k - lite Codec system. Now, some of my videos recorded under 'Image' menu works fine. But the videos stored in the "library" of WMP is not reacting. I need your advice. Again, in a prop-up window of K-Lite has asked to opt feither for: (i) (ii) repairs, (Iii) remove or change. I opted for changing file Windows Vista Codec - was the selection was appropriate? Should I opt for Vista Codec file repair?

  (b) the file might have been encoded with a codec that is not supported by Windows Media Player. If this is the case, Windows Media Player cannot play the file.
