  • Windows Media Player jerky playback and jumps, to solve the problem anyway?

    I love the way that Windows Media Player is on Windows 7, but sometimes some songs are Choppy and sound as if they are ignorant, its only a few songs, I do not understand why this is so, but it is anyway to fix it, because I want to put my music collection in my PC, but I don't know if Windows Media Player would play my files correctly also when it is a playlist there is no jumping, when I select the files, but the audio CD skip her impeccable times. Anyway to solve the problem of MP3?

    The problem is easily solved by me turn off my improvements, which is originally the choppy playback, now all files I play on WMP plays flawless... so if anyone has this problem the right thing is to check and see if you have any enrichment, during playback of files, which will most likely solve the problem.

  • Windows Media Player has stopped working, as well as the sharing of multimedia files

    My husband told me that he has always had difficulty to play the DVD on WMP.  I discovered that it would not play because there was a problem with the audio.  I couldn't find the solution to this problem.  However, we were able to play, burn and rip CDs until what we downloaded Windows SP2 for Vista Home Basic (32 bit), two days ago.  Since then, we have not been able to open the app, and the WMP network sharing Service.  I tried to run the Setup program, but it is said that there is a newer version of WMP and it will not replace or repair.  I wanted to see if I could find a solution to this problem without having to resort to reinstalling Vista or restore to an earlier point.  I also noticed that when the WMP application has been updated July 15 to the new version below, there were times this video Web sites would not play and we would have to restart the computer so that we can read them.  More information on apps not working do not are below:

    3. What is the security software installed on the computer?

    If it's something you downloaded, it may be copy protected by DRM, in which case you may not burn it to a CD or DVD.

    Here are a few things to try:

    1. make sure that the disc is clean.

  • I get a message "Windows Media Player has encountered a problem" when I browse me videos.

    When I browse my library of videos in Windows Media Player 11 on Windows XP SP3, I got a message "Windows Media Player has encountered a problem and needs to close." The message does not appear immediately, but after about 5 seconds browsing my library of videos. The details of the error are:
    AppName: wmplayer.exe AppVer: ModName 11.0.5721.5145: deinterlace.ax

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Someone just tell me how to solve the problem. Apparently, some corrupt videos caused Windows Media Player to plant as soon as thumbnails of the videos have been read. I quickly changed to a non-thumbnail view, so the error would not appear (it appears only when you try to load the photos), then deleted corrupted videos. Thanks for the help, if.
