  Don't know why Windows Media Player does not accept your mpeg.

  Just a suggestion:

  Use a video converter and change your mpeg to wmv format and read it.

  If you don't have a video converter, google for a free Converter. No need to buy a.

  You can also install VLC media player.

  Hello

  1. don't you also get an error with the message code?
  2 have you installed third-party readers part?
  3. What is the format of the files you are trying to play?

  Follow these steps and check if they help.

  Step 1:

  I would have you readers of third party temporarily Uninstall and check if persists it to the question.

  Step 2:

  Most likely you need codecs to play these files with Windows Media Player. I suggest looking up codec in the Internet that supports the file format, download and install them.

  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.

  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.

• Windows Media Player for Vista, does not play my avi files and says he has a codec error?

  Came across this problem trying to put an AVI in powerpoint presentation for the school. I don't know how this happened or how to fix the error. The error indicates that windows media player is not the right codec to play the video. However, when I sent it myself and opend it upwards on another computer, which doesn't have powerpoint, it plays very well.

  I did some research as to what a codec for windows media player, that's what code and decodes the video compression. However, when I tried to download the appropriate codec file, there is nothing. Not even useful workaround solutions.

  In addition, went and downloaded quicktime and it could not read the video either.

  Any help or ideas would be greatly apreciated. Thank you!

  Hi DaisyReaper,

  Are you able to play .avi files?

  You can use your favorite search engine to download and install the latest codec for Windows Media Player. Subsequently, check if you are able to read .avi files.

  Note: Using third-party software, including hardware drivers can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the use of third-party software can be solved. Software using third party is at your own risk.

  Hello

  I have Windows 7 Home Premium. I installed Pinnacle Studio 14 ultimate test. When the Pinnacle program works-

  a. when I run a WMV file there is no audio data.

  b. when I rang a MPEG 2 file (720 p, 25 frames per second) OR a file m2t, Windows Media Player is not able to read the file and gives the error: "Windows Media Player has encountered a problem when reading what he gives.

  c. when I close the program Pinnacle all right and WMP reads all of the above files correctly.

  I also recently installed and uninstalled Corel VideoStudio X 3 of the trial. First Adobe Elements 8 trial is also installed on the PC.

  I would be grateful yuour help solve the problem.

  Thank you

  Paresh

  Hello Paresh,

  The Pinnacle program is third party software that is causing the problem to occur. Pinnacle may be in conflict with your music files playing in Windows Media Player, that's why, I suggest you to contact pinnacle and check with them.

  Windows Media Player 12 is probably to use the codecs used by pinnacle, which may be the culprit.
