Have a. you tried to play the movie with a different actor?
B. What is the format of the video file?
C. do you have video when you play other movies or songs?
D. What is the size of the file?
Try these steps in the meantime.
Step 1
Try to update the codec and check the status.
Install or update a codec:

1 open the screen resolution by clicking on the Start button, click Control Panel, and then under appearance and personalization, click adjust screen resolution.
2. click on Advanced settings.
3. click on the tab Troubleshooting , and then click change settings. If you are prompted for an administrator password or a confirmation, type the password or provide confirmation.
4. move the Hardware Acceleration slider down.
I hope this helps.

No sound during playback of DVD in Windows Media Player
- No sound during playback of DVD in Windows Media Player.
Media Center recently stopped working altogether, the message alleges a solution will be found, but he never comes to the top with one and there seems to be no resolution right ahead of internet, I can see others too have a similar problem.
So I would try Media Player, no joy it is thinking.
It reads the dvd no sound, I go into options and make sure the external emu sound card is set, yes all well, but as soon as I put it on youtube videos sound turns off by train to play media player so a sort of conflict, if I close Opera / chrome browser and reopen his is back.
Update or reinstall the drivers for the sound card in Device Manager, checking the PC or Support Downloads Web page of the card for more recent or different driver.
Physically, reinstall the sound card to make sure that the contacts and the slots are clean and tight connections.
If you have an audio chip embedded, try to use it to compare.
Try the VLC media player to see if it has the same problem.
Have you updated flash player for your browser?
Try another browser to compare.

Original title: Windows Media Player
When I go to play a movie using windows MediaPlayer all I get is an imagwe again with audio and this message 'network is too busy to read the file to its original quality. Also, all my other media playing programs read the video but are rather "lag". I think the problem is that I already used a program to download torrents called 'BitTorent' and maybe this has used up all my bandwidth or processing speed? Not really sure but would really like it if I could still use WMP and I'm looking for resolution to my problem?
Thank you

Thanks, JDS
Hi jamiestewart,
1 is he doing with all the videos that you play using Windows media player?

There is no way to shoot a video with Windows media player.
You will need to use Windows movie maker to turn the video and save it, then later play using Windows media player.
(a) open Windows movie maker, click fileand then click import media items.
(b) locate the file you want to import and then click import.
(c) click the Clip, and then click Add to the timeline or Add to the storyboard table.
(d) click Tools, and then click effects.

When I select a mp3 or wmv file and right-click with the option open with Windows Media Player - I get a message: "Server execution failed" - I checked that all services with 'Media' in the name are running.
When I select a mp3 or wmv file and right-click with the open option with Windows Media Center - Windows Media Center opens with the message: "the files needed to display video are not installed or do not work properly.

I had the same problem and then by chance, I tried a video on YouTube and it worked for me. Here's how I went on this issue and solved my problem:
1. go to the computer, then OS (C).2. you will need to open Program Files (x 86) and Program Files.3. go to Windows Media Player in Program Files (x 86) and open the folder. Then, remove the wmplayer file. You may need to work around the error TrustedInstaller. I'll tell you that, in a moment.4. in Program Files, go to the same folder for Windows Media Player and select the same file again. Wmplayer. Copy the file in another window open. Copy ensures that if the question comes up again you can at least try to fix it again.This should be the end of your problem. If you need to circumvent the TrustedInstaller question is how:1. right click on wmplayer and select Properties > Security > advanced > owner > Edit > other users and groups.2. Enter your username and then click on check names. Click OK.3. close the dialog boxes as he has requested.4. open again the properties and click Security. Select your username from the list and click on edit. From there, select full control.This should give you full control over the removal of the original file for WMP and easily allow you to copy the other files (x 86) programs.Please let me know how it goes for your problem. -

Why can't I play the videos to M4V format bought in iTunes in windows media player
Original title: M4V format
Why can't I play the videos to M4V format bought in iTunes in windows media player. Thank you
If the video does not the restrictions of DRM (Digital Rights Management), so you can see just by changing the .mp4 extension allows it to be played in Windows Media Player, but if Apple added restrictions to the file DRM then you will be limited to such players as apple deems suitable to be used, probably iTunes or Quicktime.

False track audio times with Windows Media Player.
I use Audacity to record LP's and then burn it to a CD with Windows Media Player. When the pieces are added to the Windows Media Player burn list, channel 1 and 3 always show the track record time for 9 & 8 minutes adding unused time at the time of the correct record. I can only get 60 minutes or less on a 80 minute CD.

This happens with Windows media and windows media player classic player. Can't we vlc and I don't get the red vertical line running down the screen. No matter what movie I play the line is there. But it does not appear the tile view deleted I push actually play. When I initially opened the player, I get a blank black screen. But once I press on play the movie starts and the red line is there. Fast forward, rewind and pause, the line remains. How can I solve this problem?

Problem with Windows Media Player Audio sync DivX playback in full screen
Hello
I have found lately that when playing videos on Windows Media Player divx mode full screen audio is out of sync. If the video is played in window mode, there is no problem. I had no such problem in the past, but now for about 1 month or so, I have this problem.
I have fitted iq508a to vista 64-bit, with the latest drivers delivered HP installed (using the HP update utility)-does anyone else have this same problem too?
Thanks in advance

While watching the Pineapple Express, I thought WTF I'll take another closer look at this, and while they were smashimg their cell phones so that they could not be found by triangulation, (don't ask - u just I have to watch - stoner movie )...
in any case, I looked under tools options in WMP. I unchecked the option on the performance tab "use video smoothing"-the video as reloaded and bingo! everything in harmony!
BTW, I checked my another PC running Vista 32 bit and the option ' use video smoothing ' also exists and it is checked if this seems to be a problem with WMP works on Vista 64 bit or running desktop Touchsmart of WMP... In case I am much happier now... -
