Media Center or the player does not work
I am running Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. Saturday things seem to change. I have no update on my end, but does not have the Media Play/Center and IE8 does not work properly. I don't see even the media player in the list of programs. I uninstalled the media player and the IE8 and reinstalled them, no luck. I went through the Event Viewer logs and don't see one thing that means nothing. Everything worked until Saturday. I can't think of a thing that happened Saturday outside the normal conditions of use. Any suggestions?

azism,
Do a system restore as soon as possible. Take Windows 7 back to the way it was Friday, before the end of the world!

Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/tools > Modules > appearance).

Windows media player does not work as no driver DVD
Had to format drive (trojan) & reinstall Windows XP home. Now Windows media player does not work as no DVD driver download from Toshiba site?
Hello
Usually the Windows media Player is not able to read DVD movies IF no plugins were installed.
To watch DVDs, you can use programs such as WinDVD or PowerDVD.
These programs are designed for the DVD play!But you can also visit the Microsoft Web site and search plug-ins for Windows Media player.
Then you can download and install to play a DVD with WMPBest regards

Original title: cannot get audio from video .3g2 (Windows 7)
I have a number of videos that were recorded on a Motorola phone to format .3g2, when I played against them in windows XP Pro using what was the most recent media player, they played very well and the audio was present.
I've since upgraded to Windows 7 Ultimate and have found that videos will play with media player sound is not output.
I tried different players like VLC (same result, no sound) and came across one called SUPER from erightsoft which indeed works and allows me to re - encode to .wmv BUT when I do and you try to read the .wmv I encounter an error:
"Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The player does not support the format you are trying to play. »
When I clikc on help, I am led to a page with links on THIS forum.
So here I am.
Can someone explain what is happening, why it happens and how / if I can convert them into a playable (with audio) .wmv friendly format?
Thank you

b. you are trying to play a file that the player does not support, but the file was compressed by using a codec that is not supported by the player.Step 1:Confirm that you are trying to play a supported file type. The following article lists the types of files (formats) supported by Windows Media Player.Information on the types of media files that supports Windows Media Player
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/316992Note: if you have tried to play the file type is included in this table, the file might have been encoded with a codec that is not supported by Windows Media Player.

Original title: error reading from a photo cd
Error message "Windows Media Player cannot play the DVD. The disk has been created in a way that the player does not support"when the disc is inserted into the PC HP Touchsmart yet he plays on the laptop. Help please
Hello
(1) what is the file format of the photos on the CD?
(2) you are able to play another CD/DVD on this computer?
(3) have you made recent changes to the computer before the show?
(4) is it a Blu - ray disc?
Install the codec for Blu - Ray. Your Blu - ray player should have come with a medium containing the codec. You can also use your favorite search engine and free research Blu - ray codec.
The Blu - ray disc format is not supported in Windows Media Player. To play a Blu - ray disc, you must use a non-Microsoft program that supports Blu - ray playback and a device that can play Blu - ray discs.If you have a program that supports Blu - ray, then I suggest you to use the Troubleshoot utility and check for the issue.
You can try the following methods and check if it helps.
Method 1: Play a CD or DVD in Windows Media Player
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/play-a-CD-or-DVD-in-Windows-Media-PlayerMethod 2: Types supported by Windows Media Player files
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/316992NOTE - using third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly.
