• Project Windows Movie Maker won't play in Windows Media Player

  I created a 'film' in Windows Movie Maker - not a bad little program.  I used to be a professional video tape, and you can do things with Movie Maker and that you can't do with the edition of tape cassette - even in a television station in a big city.

  The film plays well in Movie Maker, but he won't play in Windows Media Player (Version 11).  I have Vista Home Version on my computer.

  I want to be able to send e-mail to friends and family who do not have Windows Movie Maker - but have Windows Media Player (not sure which versions have all my friends).  Until now, whenever I try to play the movie in Media Player, I get the following message:

  Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The player might not support the file type or does not support the codec used to compress the file.

  When I click on the "get help from web" button, it takes me to this page:

  http://www.Microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/Webhelp/default.aspx?&mpver=11.0.6002.18111&ID=C00D1199&ContextId=83&OriginalID=80040265

  This page does not give me the solution to the problem and gives me no option to download/install the codec I need.  I don't know what a codec is and don't really care to know.    I just need to know:

  Should which codec I?

  Where can I download it?

  What are the two products of Microsoft.  Can they be compatible?  One of the options presented during "editing" the file is to be sent by e-mail.  Not much good if the e-mail recipient is unable to play.

  I can also play the movie using Real Player or I-Tunes - but it of okay for me if they work in these players or not, since my friends and family would be no players on their computers.

  Maybe you just save the project that creates a .mswmm file.
  This file is no longer usable in Movie Maker for re - editing purposes.

  Republish the project in the format of video .wmv and you

  I've already created my movie in Movie Maker and now it won't play the timeline... help!

  ====================================
  You might have problems of compatibility with your source files.

  Several formats are apparently compatible with
  Movie Maker, but the most reliable choices are:

  Photos - bmp
  Video - wmv or dv - avi
  Music - wma, wav, wmv

  Also... can help remove the effects and Transitions and
  It may be worth trying to go to... Tools / Options /.
  Compatibility tab and disable all filters.

  Large, complex projects are prone to problems.
  If you create several small projects and publish (save)
  each of them in the format .wmv movie to a folder on your
  hard drive, you can then import the collected film clips
  in Movie Maker and combine them into a final film.
  Or import clips .wmv collected in creation of DVD and
  each of them becomes a scene (chapter).

• DVD won't play in Windows 7 64 bit Home Premium Media Center.

  I tried many DVDs in my Windows 7, 64-bit Home Premium system, and none of them will play in the Media Center, with the exception of a 1955 film that plays without problem. I guess it was a good year. In the lower right corner of the Media Center, a window says: "Play DVD - Windows Media Center cannot detect a video DVD in the DVD - Rom drive. Insert a video DVD in the drive." Apparently, the DVD is not detected. What is a missing codec problem? I read about downloading the Codec of the user, only to cause more problems, and I did a lot of searching for an answer to this and found a countless number of users having problems with DVD in Media Center and no collective solution. How can it be this difficult? What is the problem with Windows 7? Why can I play a DVD of a film of 1955 (Mr. Roberts) and not of today's movies? The only solution that I come up with to this day, even after checking with the maufacturer of my optical drive, should consider buying the codec itself, if that is what is lacking, or a DVD player to possibly of Roxio. But after the piece of hugh of money I paid for my software Windows 7, I would not have bought anything others of another company. I wouldn't think to go back to XP, but I've had far fewer problems. Any help would be appreciated. Don

  Hi Mary - thank you very much for your answer. My PC is a Dell Inspiron 530 desktop computer. I just got the phone is turned off after a few hours of troubleshooting with Dell hardware and software services. Dell is sending a technician to replace my optical drive. They hope that clears the problem, but if not, they say that I might have to reinstall Windows 7. This is happening due to your pointing me in the right direction with your post, and troubleshooting I could do before, I called Dell. I had different problems for a while, and maybe they'll finally get fixed. Thanks again, Don Don

• With more than 2 GB videos for veiwing h264 problems, they won't play in windows or version mac et seq., less than 2 GB, they play very well.

  I work for a video company, video encoding, the only problem we have is Firefox plays videos not encoded as H 264 (1080) greater than 2 GB, because they do not play. I tried the two latest version 9.0.1 in mac and windows and no change. In Internet Explorer, Chrome, the video plays well. Is there a file limit in Firefox? I read somewhere else that FF also has problems downloading files of 2 GB, do not know who is bound. Any help would be appreciated.

  Firefox does even not play H264 content by default. For HTML5 video, it will play OGG / Theora and WebM, but a plugin is necessary for the H264 content.

• CS6 hearing won't play in Windows 10

  I open Audition and edit, but by clicking on the button "Play" starts the playback of the file, in waveform or multitrack. Help?

  This has always meant the same thing with hearing, regardless of the operating system. And that is that it is not connected to your audio device. As Win10 however, I have no idea whether it would be an external reason. But your starting point in the hearing will be preferences and audio equipment.

• I have upgraded to Windows XP Professional and now Windows XP Media Center won't play DVD - component missing.

  The windows of origin is always on display as shown above, but I received a free upgrade to Windows XP Professional CD and installed on my computer. And under 'Information system', it shows as - Microsoft Windows XP Professional 5.1.2600 Service Pack 3.

  This problem started about 10 days when I used the CD of XP Professional to correct a problem. My computer is a Dell Dimension 5100 and I have two CDs that were sent to me - Dell - Microsoft Windows XP Professional SP 3 and Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Version 2005 with update Rollup 2.

  Thanks again and I ran the "fix it" you suggested but it have no problem found to fix. Every thing works fine on my system, but Media Center won't play DVD. It will play CDs and videos on my system.

  The initial problem was that I could not download the Blackberry Desktop Software - updates needed. The computer came with Windows XP Media Center Edition Home and I use Internet Explorer 8 as my default browser. I also use Mozilla Firefox as my backup browser.

  Please stick to your thread to avoid confusion of origin: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_xp-windows_update/i-have-upgraded-to-windows-xp-professional-and-now/f5245962-e9b4-4415-8aff-bc1d972f8120

  Note that I asked you to MOVE your original thread on the forum of material WinXP, not start a new thread.

  Also note that you don't have NO Windows XP Media Center Edition, installed now if you upgraded to Windows XP Professional.

  PS: If "winver" still says Windows XP Media Center Édition, did you not correctly upgraded & something is not. Better contact the Dell Support on this issue (if they'll still talk to you).

• My music files have changed in WMA format in Windows Media Player, and now my MP3 player won't play them.

  My music files have changed in wma format in windows media player, and now my mp3 player won't play them.  can anyone help please.

  original title: Media Player

  Download and install WMA to MP3 Converter, then install it, you can get it here... http://www.WMA-MP3.org/

  Then select all the WMA files you want to convert, and then convert them to the MP3 Format.
  The reason why they are WMA is because when you ripped the files on the disc to your pc, by default, Windows Media Player is configured to save in the Windows Media Audio (WMA) Format.
  This default can be changed by opening Media Player and click on Tools > Options
  Then select the Rip music tab
  Format: select MP3 from the drop-down list.
  Click apply and OK.
  Now the next time you rip a CD on your drive hard it will be automatically saved as an MP3 file.

• Windows Media won't play a DVD

  How com windows media won't play a dvd, even with a decoder, I added this morning?

  I'm having the same problem. My computer has Windows XP Professional Office. Media Player 11 is on it. But when I try to play a DVD, it says "Windows Media Player cannot play the DVD because no compatible DVD decoder is not installed on your computer" is not Media Player got it own decoder? I don't want to download some other decoder from another provider that I don't know. I got Windows Media Player on every computer I've ever owned and have never had problem reading DVD or something else. What is the problem and how to fix it? My computer has a DVD driver... and yet I can't watch DVDs... makes no sense...

  And yes the DVD play on other computers and DVD player to the TV. Not a scratch above. Nothing wrong with the DVD. ANY DVD will not play the computer, with the fact that I have a problem...

  And Yes, I am talking about Windows Media Player.

  =================================================

  A DVD decoder is not included with Windows XP...
  so, we need to be acquired and installed from a third
  the party source. If your system has one when it was new...
  It would have been included in your OEM software
  package... maybe you always for her installation disk.

  The site has a few suggestions:

  Info about DVD decoders: Plug-ins for Windows Media Player
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Windows-Media-Player-plug-ins

  
  FWIW... the free VLC Media Player can play DVDs
  and you shouldn't have any additional codecs.

  (FWIW... it's always a good idea to create a system)
  Restore point before installing software or updates)

  VLC Media Player (32-bit Version)

  (works on XP, Vista, 7, 8)
  (the name of the file to download is: vlc - 2.0.4 - win32.exe)

• Windows Media Center won't play DVD

  Windows Media Center won't play DVD. This program has played these exact DVD in September. These DVDs can be played on other devices. Error message indicates that there is a problem with the decoder, but don't tell me the code of error message. I searched other forums, but it is impossible to find an answer to this problem, except the recommendation of a codec - although I don't know how I "lost" the codec in the month. Microsoft Security Essentials have installed and up to date, if it is not a virus. Have problems in other programs with the recognition of previously readable files. Not sure if it's related, so I'll post in separate... forums but I'll give you a link if you want to. Your help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

  Hello cowgurlup55,

  In addition to the response of Santosh, please relay if the problem occurs when you play a DVD or a single. Please also relay if the same problem occurs when you try to play the DVD with Windows Media Player.

  In addition, if you have an extra DVD decoder installed, then try to update the DVD decoding software.

  For more information about MPEG - 2 DVD decoders, please visit the link below:

  It seems that you did not actually transfer files... did you
  check files on the jumpdrive to see if they would play?

  Might be interesting to try another.
