Play AIFF files in windows media player

Hello

I'm reading some AIFF files in windows media player. I get the error 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."

As WMP supports AIFF files I guess it's a problem with the codec.

Is there a solution out there that I can play the files?

Cheers, Matt.

Where are the files? Are you sure that they are in the AIFF format?

You can try to install FFDShow . If this does not help, please open some of the files in GSpot , this program will signal the audio codec used in the file. Then, you can report this codec here.

  • How to play .asx files in Windows Media Player

    original title; Can I play a video file of .asx with WMP? or if not, how to play with this extension .asx files?

    Can I play a video file of .asx with WMP? or if not, how to play with this extension .asx files?

    When I try to play the file, WMP shows error then update says "video codec".

    How then can I get this update for the video codec?

    Thank you, Michael Phelps 907

    Hi Mike,.

    an .asx file is not a media file. It is a file that contains a pointer to a content online. So if you are unable to read a .asx file and are able to play other files using Windows Media Player so the best thing is to open the .asx, a Notepad file. When you open the .asx using Notepad, you will see a link that starts by http: and so on. Please copy this link and go to Windows Media Player. On the Windows Media Player window, press the Alt key on the keyboard and click file and Open url. Paste the link and check if Windows Media Player is able to open the link. If she opens the link this is a problem with the formatting of the .asx file and if it does not open the link then it is a problem with the server online of the .asx file. It could be that it is deleted from the server.

    Hope this information helps. Keep us informed on the status of the issue.

    Hello

    Have you installed a third-party codec pack?

    Windows Media Player cannot play the FLV files. You will need a third party FLV player to play these files or you will need to install the latest codecs pack
    on your computer. If installing plugin ffshow did not help, then try searching the Internet for the codec pack.

  • Windows Media Player encountered a problem while playing the file. Windows Media Player C00D11B1

    I get this error when I try to play a file I've downloaded BBC iplayer. What is the solution?

    My sound driver and the device is installed and running as I am able to listen to music on my laptop. He used to work until I upgraded to Windows 7. and since I have updated it did not work. Windows Media Player works on other video files

    Please try the following steps: -.

    1. use Windows Update, or access the sound device manufacturer's Web site to see if an updated driver is available.

    2. use Device Manager to check the status of your audio device.

    a. click Start, right-click computerand then click Manage.

    (b) in the left pane, click Device Manager.

    c. in the pane, expand sound, video and game controllersand then look for the name of your audio device.

    d. do one of the following:

    3. If your audio device is listed, but the icon has a red 'X', the device has been disabled.          To activate the device, right-click the icon, and then click Activate.

    4. If your audio device is not listed in the right pane, expand other devices. If the Multimedia Audio Controller appears in the list, right-click on the icon and then click Update driver software. Follow the on-screen instructions to find and install the driver software.

    5. If you are not able to find and install the correct driver software, go to the Web site of your computer or the manufacturer of your sound device manufacturer for assistance.

    The ID3 header is a part of the file that stores the album information of the song (for example, the song name, artist name, album name and kind). This information is sometimes called tag. After you remove the headers ID3, Windows Media Player should be able to play MP3 files.
