• missing windows media player error code 0x80004005 and 0x8007047F

  My windows media player is missing and my system is not let me reinstall it (error code 0x80004005 and 0x8007047F) how can I solve this problem? Thank you!

  Hi Trish,

  Welcome to the Microsoft Community Forum!

  Based on the information you gave it seems you found the error code 0x80004005 and 0x8007047F during the installation of Windows Media player.

  If you have windows 7 installed, it is not possible to uninstall Windows Media Player 12. Windows Media Player 12 comes preinstalled with the operating system. You can not downgrade to Windows Media Player 11 in Windows 7.

  I suggest you to follow the link and check if it is enabled or disabled, and then restart the computer to start windows media player 12.

• How we prevent Windows Media Player plug-ins from the substitution of sizing in html code integration?

  My html code for integration of Windows Media Player in Firefox but not IE 8 problems recently developed framework. The player displays correctly at the beginning, but then repositions and resizes. It seems that my width setting is to honor, but not my height adjustment. Also, autoplay = "false" (or "0") is also not honored the video starts playing after the repositioning and resizing. I tried different code for integration with the same result. I have the correct Windows Media Player Firefox plugin and it is up-to-date. I tried the update to Firefox version 9.0.1, but the problem persists. I came across web postings applying substituting the parameters of plugin embed code. No workaround solution appreciated. Thank you.

• Family Vista premium missing windows media player 64-bit

  Hello.. .fondamentalement the title says it all.   I'm in Europe and bought the English version of vista HP 64-bit. (integrated home system)

  I want to install what my favorite site who subscribe to allows me to listen to live games and then what highlights.

  But in IE 8 32-bit I get an error (works on IE8 64-bit for any reason and on firefox)... and on 64-bit windows system 7.

  Thanks for the links to d/l the WMP 64 bit (I sen a player 64 bit but it was for XP)

  other than this WMP 11 works very well... just thought I would try the 64 bit version and see if that makes a difference.

  Hello GrimREMA,

  This means a file has been moved, renamed, or deleted.  The file is possibly corrupted.

  In Windows Media Player 11, you can choose 'options' on the 'Library' tab then
  Select the network? This tab is opened?

• WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER... Missing codecs

  My windows media player use to play DVD & VCD but now missing the codec so can't watch these now. Download the codecs but them uninstalled as apparently do IE, Media Player etc unstable. Is anyone able to help with this please... Thanks :)

  Hello

  Thanks for posting in this forum. I understand that DVD is not playing in Windows media player, installed some codecs but these codecs were Internet Explorer unstable. Let us know if it's the misunderstanding of the question.

  A codec is a software to compress or decompress a digital media file, such as a song or a video. Windows Media Player and other programs use codecs to play and create digital media files.

  A codec can consist of two components: an encoder and a decoder. The encoder performs the compression function (coding) and the decoder performs the decompression function (decoding). Some codecs include both components and some codecs only one of them.

  For example, when you rip a song from an audio CD on your computer, the player uses the default Windows Media Audio codec to compress the song into a compact WMA file. When you play that WMA file (or any WMA file that may be broadcast from a Web site), the player uses the codec Windows Media Audio to decompress the file for music can be played through your speakers.

• Why Firefox 5 will not see the Windows Media Player Plugin?

  Hello useful Mozilla expert,

  When I click on a link to play a standard WMV video in Firefox 5, in the movie player window it is said 'Click here to download the'.

  When I click on 'Click here to download the plugin' in Firefox 5, I get a panel of Firefox that says I need to Windows Media Player 11, but I already Windows Media Player 12 and the browser Firefox WMP plugin installed on this computer... it worked fine in Firefox 3.6.

  If I then click to install the Windows Media Player 11 plugin, it goes to another Firefox sign that says: ' no plug-ins have been installed, Windows Media Player 11 - no available '. Then, there is a "manual install" button, and when I click, it takes me to a third party plugin site called 'InteroperabilityBridges.com' which has a plugin Firefox WMP dated April 2007 available.

  Here is the link he gives... http://www.interoperabilitybridges.com/Windows-Media-Player-Firefox-plugin-download

  When I check my Panel "programs and features" in Windows 7 on my control panel, I can see that I have already installed something called, "Windows Media Player Firefox Plugin" installed and it is dated 10/24/2010 and it is version 1.0.0.8

  Despite having already the required plugin installed and showing in my control panel, programs and features, this WMP plugin does not appear on my plugins Firefox 5 Panel. So I tried to re - install with the installer of origin and available to the above URL Setup (they seem to be the same, except my installer of origin has a date of 2010).

  I also tried the 'fix' option in the setup of the plugin... it still does not appear in Firefox 5, nor this browser will play a WMV file in the integrated test related troubleshooting page plugin Mozilla WMP player, or other pages that embedded the WMV players.

  So the question is, why is Firefox 5 demanding I install a Windows Media Player plug-in older, version 1.0.0.8 of 2007 when I have already installed...? and why it won't work?

  I went through all the troubleshooting information in Mozilla and go to the page dedicated to this subject and nothing works...

  http://blogs.technet.com/b/Port25/archive/2007/04/16/Windows-Media-Player-plug-in-for-Firefox.aspx

  What is the solution? The upgrade again for the 3rd time in the last 2 months, this is not an option... I'm tired of going through all the difficult steps of the upgrade and find what has changed and rejected another upgrade of the browser Mozilla and re - install plugins, extensions, modules and customizations and repair everything that does not work, as I always do now with Firefox 5.

  It seems that as soon as I get most things squared away in a new browser from Mozilla, then they came out with three new releases, so when I'm still struggling with the FF5 version (as I am now) there will be version 9 I get annoying constant 'reminders' upgrade to.

  Thank you

• Why isn't Windows Media Player DVD more play?

  I played DVD on my Windows XP Home edition before, he always played them very well, but then suddenly it stopped reading DVDs, everytime I put a DVD in (from the same DVD I used to play on the computer), all I get is a message that reads as follows:

  "Windows Media Player cannot play the DVD because no compatible DVD decoder is not installed on your computer."

  I don't know why he does not play the most, I've tried it on WinDVD and it only plays DVD when the movie is opened its files (in other words, I have to go "Playlist" then select the DVD drive and open the video folder and open all video files to it to play the movie...) I would really apprecate that it if someone could help me with this issue, at least let me know how to fix or what happened to the decoder or what...

  PS: When I run " dvdupgrd / detect' to see my status as a DVD player, the window that appears named, detected DVD decoders reads:" "

  "No decoders found.
  W2K Upgrade = no
  Win9x Upgrade = no
  LCID = 080 has"
  Hope someone can help me...

  FWIW... Win XP cannot natively recognize Commercial
  DVD video... it requires a DVD decoder.

  If you could play before commercial video DVD...
  do a system restore to a time before this started
