• Flash will not play some videos (under vista only!)

  Hello I am puzzled that flash will not play some videos

  (for example from dailymotion.com or canalplus.fr).

  The problem exists with the current version (10,3 r183)

  But if I try to downgrade or with v11 beta...

  On the same machine, I can also boot XP or linux

  where everything works as expected, but no dice on winvista

  (SP2)! I've also updated my nvidia display drivers

  and I tried to disable hardware acceleration and temporarily

  my firewall and my anti-virus, nothing helps.

  I see it with IE7/FF6/Chrome.

  All the operating systems are 32-bit.

  Note that some sites have very well (e.g. youtube)

  Can someone suggest something, please?

  Let's try the following:

  1. Close the browser windows
  2. In Explorer, navigate to the following folder: C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\ (the best way to do this is to type %appdata%\microsoft\windows\sendto in the path of the Explorer bar).
  3. Remove the Macromedia folder
  4. Then, go to the Adobe folder and delete the folder 'Flash Player' inside.
  5. Finally, go to "c:\windows\system32\macromed\flash" and look for a file mms.cfg.  If it is present, please rename it.

  Once done, try those sites to reoffend.

• my windows media player is VERY slow to start, sometimes stops working, will not play some videos

  When I run the program it opens but will not play a song sometimes longer than 15 minutes. Stops working and the screen will sometimes foggy transparent white - I can still see the player, but he has a white on fog. Today, that happen when you try to copy a cd. -just a regular old cdr.

  Show first frame of video and play a sound but video does not move. Windows vista-home premium-toshiba.

  I suggest that you try to reset the media library. Note firstly reset the library will make you lose all play counts and ratings too. Then, follow these steps:

  -Restart the PC.
  -Click Start, type services.msc in the search field and press ENTER. In Services, locate the Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service. If its status is started, double-click on the service and click on stop.
  -Click Start, type %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft in the search field and press ENTER. This folder opens in Windows Explorer.
  -In this file, rename the old Media Player like Media Player folder. If you do not see the folder, then it is probably hidden. Set Explorer to view the hidden files and folders and show protected system files.
  -Launch WMP, your library will have been reset and will be rebuilt. Check if the problem persists.

• Toshiba 48L1433DB Led TV will not play Avi USB files

  Hello
  As stated above, my new TV initially played the Avi video files from a USB Pendrive with no problems. Now, he tells the Avi files are not supported and will not play them. I tried the two USB Slots, same problem.
  The USB plays fine on my PC.

  I tried to update the software, but it has not finished searching. My TV is NOT connected to the internet, and I don't know how to upgrade the firmware? or how tr again update any software. I have no manual at the present time.

  Thanks for any help, keep it simple please.

  As already mentioned by user above; You must use supported codec.

• Windows Media player 12 will not play .avi files

  Original title: Media Player 12

  I have WMP12 on my windows 7 and never had a problem 2 days ago. Now I can't play video files, it seems to be only the .avi files. When I click on it I get a message saying that windows media player has stopped working and is looking for a solution. Some of these files, I had some time and always played using WMP12 without problems. It will play everything, MP4, MP3, audio books simply not excerpts from movies avi, I looked for updates, codec & addons, nothing helps, any suggestions

  I already have VLC that I use for the .mkv files, but I prefer WMP it has better quality image and sound. I downloaded the codecs from the link you gave me, (Combined-Community-Codec-Pack-2013-08-01) and installed it. Yay it worked. Thank you very much
