Media Player sound corruption

Hi, since I moved from the BT broadband to Sky I was unable to play the music of downlodaded without serious disruption. This applies also to the already downloaded YouTube documents. I contacted Sky who wash their hands in the matter... There, he had no problem until I went from BT. any spark with a bright idea?

I think that this is a completely independent problem.

You can try the usual who often work with unknown problems:
http://teengeek.freehostingcloud.com/help/systemrestore/ system restore (this will probably fix your problem)
virus scan with Malwarebytes: http://teengeek.freehostingcloud.com/help/scanforviruses/
running a SFC or CHKDSK scan

  • Windows Media Player sound only during video playback

    Windows Media Player won't PLAY VIDEO (MOVIES); ONLY SOUND CAN BE HEARD.

    Can someone please?  I go crazy - my windows media player will not play anything except the sound on videos (films are so far the problem).  She claims codecs are updated automatically, I'm too scared to download some unknown codec. I tried everything I know to do and I'm not too bad to understand such things.  I am now at a loss.  What is the problem here? BTW-Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit, Toshiba laptop.  I think that Media Player 11.

    Volunteer J ~ THANK YOU very MUCH FOR THE REPLY! I WILL RESPECT ALL THE SOLUTIONS YOU HAVE TO OFFER!  From what I can tell, they are my videos (movies) transferred from the cd to the media player.  Videos of "sample" provided pre work ok.  My films all have the extension .avi at the end, that's why I don't understand why they will play only the sound of the film, not the actual Visual part. . AVI should be accompanied by my windows media player.  As I said, I'm pretty decent to deal with such things as a result of working with a lot of "technicians" in recent years; This is why I do not bother anyone here, but I am at a loss for what to do. If it's codecs, I don't want to take the risk to download a bad codec and corrupting my system.  Already checked the updates of Media player, there are not available at this time.  She has also set to automatically download codecs.  Man, it drives me crazy!  ConfusedOne70 aka Michelle

  • Media Player sound quality is poor.

    Why the audio in its _crap___ Media Player? I can play the same tracks with Realplayer and it sounds good, so I know that all the speakers are connected in law, there must be a problem with Windows Media Player.

    I tried to adjust the settings in Realtek Audio Manager and the equalizer in the drive, but it does not help.

    Hi korn11,

    Try disabling optional speaker effects that are collectively known as improvements. If the disabling effects speaker solves the problem, it means generally that there is an underlying problem with your audio driver. If an updated driver is available, we recommend that install you it so that you can re-enable improvements audio speaker.

    To disable improvements audio speaker

     
     

    1. Open Audio devices and sound themes by clicking Start , clicking onto Control Panel, hardware and sound, and then clicking its.

    2. on the playback tab, click speakers, and then click Properties.

    3. click on the tab improvements and then check the disable all enhancements .

    If you do not see the enhancements tab in the speakers properties dialog box, these features are not available for your speakers, and this procedure is not applicable to your computer.

    If disabling audio enhancements solves the audio problem you are having, this indicates usually that your audio driver needs to be updated. If disabling audio enhancements does not resolve the problem, contact your computer manufacturer for assistance.

  • No media player sound recording live TV

    Hi people, I have a problem with Windows 7 in record mode Live Tv (planned or not) I'm under edition Full 64-bit Windows 7 Home premium with an AMD processor Athlon 64 dual core with 4 GB of Ram.     I only have the problem with the TV Live recorded using Media Center.  It is a little of her, but only the sounds of outskirts the main track of noise IE voice is missing and the other sounds a bit muted... All other recording and playback and sound system devices and software are fine.  I use my advice on sound card ALC97 with latest drivers available 32/64 bit, My Tv tuner is Aver Media H788 hybrid PCIe with the latest drivers for 32/64-bit.

    I lived to see that all the devices and the sliders are in the right position and setting each option of control panel and carefully searched.  I can hear the sound when I simply want to play a live TV program and the sound was better with the installation of Windows 7 than it has ever been using XP. Just this problem with Media Player.  After all what good is a record if there is no sound?

    I've disabled my advice on Realtek sound and installed a Turtle Beach Riviera 5.1 sound card and their new drivers 64-bit Windows 7 and everything works perfectly now.  I use AVER MEDIA H 788 and H788 hybrid tuners.  I installed them with OBVERSE latest drivers for 64-bit Windows 7 and I had absolutely no problems whatsoever with them.  Able to record 2 channels at the time each time and records perfectly and with the Voyetra card the sound is great.  Highly recommend AVER Tuner cards for easy installation and great drivers with Windows 7.

  • Windows media player is corrupt or configuration settings may be unsettled

    My windows media player suddenly started acting weird (slow ripping time; doubling and tripling occasionally, content CD for example library). On troubleshooting, I repeatedly get two messages: 1) library is corrupted. (2) configuration settings can be setincorrectly. I get no additional guidance where to go/how to fix and I keep going round in circles with the troubleshooting packs. any ideas. I only used it for audio so far

    I have tried many suggestions for an error where Windows Media Player (WMP) would not play any music or video files after a reinstall of Windows 7 online.

    All the drivers have been checked for the latest driver in Device Manager after reinstallation.

    Update of drivers have been installed, if necessary,

    Not all files would play in WMP.

    Error messages have been the library WMP files were corrupt or configuration settings can be unruly.

    None of the suggestions online worked for me.

    Try the following:

    Right click on this web page and create a shortcut on your desktop at the top of the landing page after the reboot.

    Click on: start - type "device manager".

    Click: Device Manager

    Click on: "audio, video and game controllers".

    Click on: Driver tab

  • "Windows Media Player 12 - corrupted library.

    original title: the woes of 'Windows Media Player 12.

    Good first day and all.

    "Windows Media Player 12" (like the one provided with 'Windows 7') - I can't get it to work reliably.  No, this, scratching for 'reliable' read 'at all '...
    We have a library of about 35 000 titles, coded as "Windows Media Audio (Lossless)" (so using the Microsoft CODECs).  My sync.s with a Microsoft Office "Windows Mobile 6.1" ' phone ("HTC" "Touch HD" to be precise).
    Usage only I do 'Windows Media Player' is to synchronize playlists with my ' phone.  I tend not to listen to anything to help I have much better way to listen to music through a system of his PC and speakers crammed into an LCD monitor.  So "Windows Media Player" is just sitting there in the background.
    And some days she who will be quite happy without problems.  However (average) about 3 - 4 times a week, it will crash just randomly - up comes a dialog box saying «Windows Media Player has stopped working...» » ; or upward will come a message on my workspace is corrupted - "Media Player" will apparently remove and recreate automatically for me the next time it starts.
    The problem with that is it then everyone loses sync. settings, because it creates a new ID of the library for the new library, so I have to go and re - set my mobile, re-set-up device synchronization settings all the playlists I want to sync, etc etc etc etc and all this only after a wait of several hours for "Windows Media Player" to actually re-created the library first place.
    Basically, it's the two 'Windows Media Player' himself and tries to synchronize the music with my mobile device actually completely unnecessary and impracticable.  I'm not fan of Apple products but with Microsoft software using the Microsoft CODECs and synchronization to a mobile operating system of Microsoft being so completely and totally unnecessary I can quite understand why people just go and buy iPod (or iPhone, or...)-at least Apple understand media, including Microsoft obviously doesn't...
    So, after only 4 hangs 2 library reconstructions and only today (he is obviously having a particularly bad day today...) I thought that "enough is enough" and sought technical support options.
    Now, I'm not about to pay stupid amounts to Microsoft to tell them that their software is broken, and for them, finally, to answer "Yes, and? ...".  So I thought I would look on the Microsoft support site to see what options are available.  Apparently none - despite 'Windows 7' having been out for a while now, all Microsoft support pages only refers to 'Windows Media Player' versions up to version 11.  Come on Microsoft, which is pretty poor, is it not?  I know only for about 2 years 'Windows 7' RTM (Release To Manufacturing), so maybe it's a little early to wait to talk about "Windows Media Player 12" on your sites... support?  (this is sarcasm, in case anyone was wondering...)
    So I turn on the forums.  Does anyone else have a great experience (and I think that ~ 35 000 titles probably called 'wide') libraries with "Windows Media Player 12", and if so have you had any problems?  Someone has suggestions for additional diagnostics (for example, try to establish exactly what causes the library should be damaged or for 'Windows Media Player' suddenly to be considered "stopped working")
    ?
    What's happening on my machine "Windows 7 Professional (x 64)" with 8 GB of RAM and a lot of free space on the disk, so resources should not be a problem. "  It also happens on all the various other machines that we have here (all running "Windows 7 Professional"; for most of the "x 64").  It never used to happen with all that the latest version of 'Windows Media Player' was to 'XP' (but who had his "own collection of the bad guys to use"ActiveStink"...) so there shouldn't be anything specific library - it certainly seems to be problems specifically with "Windows Media Player 12".
    Any suggestions gratefully received...

    Method 1 fixed an issue, I've had where Media player would not start.    If I tried to play an mp3 file I get "Server error".  Bad shooting Diagnostics said my configuration was corrupted and my library was corrupt.  But it didn't fix it. Uninstall and reinstall using Windows features has not solved my problem.   With the FixIt solution, my problem has been resolved.
