  • Windows Media Player 11 will not play video

    Windows Media Player 11 will not play DVD-video or video files from a SD card.  I tried several update codec options, but none were successful, including the option offered by Microsoft (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/download/AllDownloads.aspx?displang=en).  Windows tells me that a more recent update has been installed and refuses to go forward.

  • Windows Media Player 12 will not play mp4, mp3, wmv files through IIS hosted local site when the PC is disconnected from the Internet

    I have an IIS Web site 6.1 on local 32-bit Windows 7 machine that serves HTML and MP4 videos via Internet Explorer on the local computer.  An internet connection is not necessary because it is all local storage and local accommodations through IIS.  IIS is configured to serve the MP4 videos in the form of downloadable files, don't not streaming somehow.  I have the right MIME type ".mp4" with the installation of "video/mp4" in the IIS server, so I don't think that's the problem.

    When the machine is connected to the internet, by clicking on a video link MP4 in any HTML page served by the local IIS server results in Windows Media Player opening and playing the video in its own window.  However, when the Ethernet cable is unplugged, by clicking on the same results of video link MP4 in Windows Media Player by opening its own window, and then display this error message:

    Windows Media Player cannot play the file.  If the file is on the Internet, connect to the Internet.  If the file is on a removable storage card, insert the storage card.

    It's almost as if Windows Media Player has a bug and since it accesses this media file via a URL, but the machine is not connected to a network, he thinks that this file is unplayable.

    When the Ethernet cable is disconnected, the local IIS server is still all the HTML code and ActiveX content except for media files.  I also tried to access MP3 and WMV files via the IIS server to see if Windows Media Player will open those when the computer is disconnected from the Internet.  These caused also Windows Media Player files display the same error message.

    I tried the VLC (VideoLAN) Player after changing the property file in VLC of WMP for .mp4 files extension.  With VLC installed and the extension changed to VLS property, I can download/open the MP4 video using the link in the web page served by IIS all when they are disconnected from the internet.  The only thing I can't do is get VLC player to open and play the video simply by clicking on the link in Internet Explore web pages served by the local IIS server.

    I would like to make use of Internet Explorer and Windows Media Player with this IIS server that serves the MP4 videos rather than using VLC player.

    Thank you

    Michael Rayman

    I finally found the answer to my problem:

    When they are disconnected from the internet, mysteriously, Windows Media Player 12 requires that you check a checkbox in tools > Options... > zone settings tab player called "Internet connection (ignore the other commands).  Once this box is checked and the settings saved on APPLY, then Windows Media Player 12 will play videos served by the local IIS server on the same machine, while disconnected from the Internet.

  • Windows Media Player 12 will not play or burn music CDs!

    Running Windows 7 Home Premium-Windows Media Player will play a DVD but will not play an audio CD, which begs the question: why it does not burn the CD using Roxio Burn (which just sits there doing nothing) just like WMP 12.  I tried uninstalling and reinstalling and suggestions in this forum, but nothing is done.  Microsoft has really any solution of constantly failing to player?  In addition, reinstalled my computer back to the State factory and Media Player STILL will NOT play or burn music CD.  Hello, Microsoft, I would rather download Media Player 11, which at least has worked, so tell me how to get that back.  Thank you.

    Are normally given CD detected?
    If not, the problem is probably with the drive itself - CD and DVD is access differently if we wouldn't necessarily affect each other.

  • Media Player 12 will not remain full screen for more than 5 min.

    Upgrade Vista Ultimate to 7 Ultimate. Media Player now will not stay full screen for more than 5 minutes during movie playback. How can I fix this please?

    When presentation settings are turned on, your mobile PC stays awake and system notifications are turned off. I would not advice you constantly running in presentation mode because it does not allow your computer becomes idle (and display the screen saver) even when you do not do anything. He probably solved your problem because one of your application does not perform certain actions as before, because it's always 'think' that your computer is not idle.

    You should do something like this: check the settings for these two applications: Vaio update and Trend Micro (probably you can get there after right-clicking on the icon in the notification area and choose the appropriate context menu position). There should be some options when these applications are performing the update process. No doubt, one of them made when the computer becomes inactive if it may affect the mode full-screen. I guess that might be Vaio update, because I read that since version 2010, Trend Micro has been improved and should not cause this problem, but you should check the two of them. You should change the appropriate settings, so it will play the update process in another moment.

    There is also something else you can try. You can read this article: How to prevent the flight home in Windows programs . You can find how to prevent theft of focus programs, then perhaps it can also solve your problem. Maybe after the upgrade to Vista, specific registry key does not contain the appropriate value, and you must follow these steps to fix that:

    1. Click Start and then click run (or you can press Windows key + R )

    2. In the text box on the run window, type regedit and click OK. This will open the registry editor program.

    3. Find the folder HKEY_CURRENT_USER under my computer and click the plus sign (+) after the folder name to expand the folder.

    4. Continue to expand the folders until you reach the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel registry key.

    5. Select the key of Office under Control Panel .

    6. On the right side of the screen, locate and double-click ForegroundLockTimeout DWORD.

    7. In the Edit DWORD value window that appears, set them value data: field to 30 d 40 .

      Note: Make sure that the Basic option has the hexadecimal value, when you enter the DWORD value.

    8. Click OK , and then close the registry editor .

    9. Restart your PC for the changes to take effect.

    10. From this moment on, programs should no longer steal focus from the window you are currently working.

    I use Windows Media Player 12 on Windows 7 Home Premium OS V..  I was rip CDs to this computer for years without any significant problems and have hundreds of CD in MP3 format in my library of music.  When I recently tried to rip a new batch of CD, the albums were coming all up as 'Unknown' album & artist, "track 1, track 2,... and follow n for the titles of the songs."  After the investigation period, a pop up window would come saying "Windows Media Player cannot download information on the media for this CD... "What has happened to WMP and how to fix it?

    HI - the first necessary check is if nothing has changed after a recent update for the media player (you may remember being asked to set your preferences) view of library in WMP go to 'organize' - 'options' and check that internet access is authorized and in the privacy, the "online display media information" tab is checked.

  • Windows Media Player 12 will not reinstall, corrupt the file 'mpvis.dll.mui '.

    I'm trying to fix Windows Media Player 12 without success.

    I tried 'turned on' and 'off' Windows Media Player via "Turn Windows features on or off"-there did not work.  It will not fix the problem, and I think I know why.

    I ran sfc/scannow from the cmd prompt gives me the following in the CBS.log log error message:

    [RS] Could not reproject corrupted file [ml:520 {260}, l:106 {53}] '------? \C:\Program files (x 86) \Windows Media Player\en-US "------[l:26 {13}] 'mpvis.dll.mui '; source file in the store is also corrupted

    I just took the 'ownership' of the file and replaced by a different copy on another hard drive that worked.  I have the journal and if the information is needed to solve this problem I'll post here apart from the above error message.

    Attempt to run Windows Media player only gives me the error message:

    "Window Media Player is not installed correctly and must be reinstalled.  You want to install the player from the Microsoft website? »

    I 'want' install the player on MS website, but they do not offer this possibility because it is nowhere available for download.  I have to say I am frustrated by this situation and I would like to know why MS decided to make this hassle to reinstall a program properly.
