    Hi Carl,

    Thanks for posting your query in the Microsoft Community.

    You cannot hear sound on Windows Media Player. It can be difficult when something that is important to you does not work as expected. It's pretty simple and we're here to help you solve the problem. We work as a team and get this sorted out.

    Please answer these questions-

    (1) are you able to listen to the sound on other applications besides Windows Media Player?

    (2) what exactly happens when you try to play a media file?

    (3) have you made changes on the computer before the show?

    I would like more information about the issue.

  • All of a sudden no sound in Windows Media Center, video playback. No problem with the same files in media player

    My windows media center vista has all of a sudden start to turn off randomly and restart by itself, about 3 weeks ago.  Now, he has lost his.  When I'm going through orders, no sound.  Video games, no sound.  I can still get sound for mp3, but not video.  I can play the same video in media player without any problem.  Can anyone help?  I have Vista Ultimate, service Pack2.

    Hi Doramon,

    Welcome to the Windows Vista answers Forum!

    What are the file extensions you are trying to play?

    This could happen because some of the types of files supported by Windows Media Player are not supported by Windows Media Center.

    To check the file types supported by Windows Media Center please visit the below given link:

    Types of files supported by Windows Media Center

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/file-types-supported-by-Windows-Media-Center

    You can also try and run the System File Checker tool. This would be in repair of the system files that may be damaged.

    Scan SFC enforcement procedure:

    1. click on the Start button

    2. on the Start Menu, click all programs followed by accessories

    3. in the menu accessories, right-click on command line option

    4. in the drop-down menu that appears, click the "Run as Administrator" option

    5. If you have the User Account Control (UAC) enabled, you will be asked permission before the opening of the command line. You simply press the button continue if you are the administrator or insert password etc.

    6. in the command prompt window, type: sfc/scannow then press enter

    7. a message is displayed to indicate that "the analysis of the system will start.

    8. be patient because the analysis may take some time

    9. If all the files need replace SFC will replace them. You may be asked to insert your Vista DVD for this process to continue

    10. If all goes although you should, after the analysis, see the following message "Windows resource protection not found any breach of integrity.

    11. once the scan is finished, close the command prompt window, restart the computer and check.

    This would take care of the issue that you are facing.

    You should take the recovery disc and needs to be reinstalled the operating system of the provided Toshiba DVD.

  • Frying or audio sound in Windows Media Player (especially for music files)

    I think this virus recently, I had on my PC has done major damage to my Windows Media Player files and music. It was working fine this past Saturday, but lately, I experienced technical difficulties with the sound. Music files do not play correctly. The sound is very distorted and scratchy and it sounds almost as if I'm playing music on a tape that has been eaten or warped. Sounds like kind of when you play a portable CD or a cassette player that runs on a low or dead battery. Sounds almost like the files are at a standstill, and then they sound normal, but it is on and off. I can't explain this well because it's really hard to describe. I transferred a lot of my music files on my mp3 player. Even when I play samples of the song on iTunes and Wal-Mart, I get the same problem. I've removed MusicMatch JukeBox on my computer because it prohibits with Media Player.

    I would like to get rid of the itching and the distortion on these music files. I don't know what I have to do. I printed a few instructions, but they are 15 pages long and a bit complicated to read sometimes. Do you know what problem I want to talk to? I don't know how it happened, but I bet that Media Player is not fully upgraded. I also tried the upgrade of WMP but that did not help either.

    Is there a way to relieve this itching and distortion on Media Player? What exactly is the problem I have?

    Sorry the long delay in his response (13/06/12)

    No, I have not found a software solution.  My problem is "solved" by the hard drive crashing / failing & replacement, re - install etc.

    However, I discover, before the crash, when I copied a part of the music on a USB stick and my iPod (led Seattle for THE & back and I wanted music - same 'bad') and was surprised when I plugged the USB on my car stereo - don't pop / does click - no idea why - at least the POPs & clicks were a "warning sign" of the crash of the hard drive.

    When I got home was purchased 8 more of USB drives (fits on music 10 hrs each) saved the rest of my music files.  Most were commerical and had the CD (somewhere), but some of the music was 'live' recorded at a meeting of extended family, which has turned into a festival of the song of sorts.  I was the only one to whom he recorded (after a few changes shared with others).  A week later, the HD crashed (prior to installation).

    Up to 12 USBs with music (and iPod) now and I'm not playing with CD while driving.

    If you have any music, videos, photos, you do not have another copy somewhere... maybe think about making a backup pronto... just in case.

    Take care

  • No sound with Windows Media Center TV

    There is no sound when watching live TV or when I look at TV shows recorded on Windows XP Media Center TV. I tried the volume via the remote control, monitor & HD Realtek audio Manager control, but no luck. The speakers (which are incorporated in the monitor) are both works well and work in other areas, IE: DVD, Internet and iTunes ect. It's only when I watch live or recorded TV programs. my PC is connected with RF cable (DOM) any advice would be appreciated gratefully. Thanks in advance.

    If the above does not help: -.

    Uninstall and reinstall your tv tuner card driver, sound card driver and the decoder. Update all the drivers on the manufacturers Web sites.

  • No sound from windows media player

    Original title: windows media player

    I have windows vista and have lost somehow all of a sudden the sound on my windows media player. I get sound from the internet, but not my dvd player. We have nothing to do with the sound card. Movies play the video, but there is no sound on everything I put in the drive. How can I get my sound back.

    Hello, I may have a solution.

    Is not not a Vista user, but I should think of Vista and 7 are relatively the same language.

    About the time in the lower right corner, to the left of which should have a "speaker" icon.

    Either by right-clicking on the icon and "Open Volume Mixer"

    There are volume controls in all your active programs.

    Find the program in which may be one that is silent, reactivate the sound, and you can select the desired volume.

  • No sound in windows media player (11.0.6002.18111) only trying to play mp3 files. No way of fixing/uninstallation or reinstallation. Need advice!

    I recently encountered a problem with Windows Media Player 11 (a specific version in the title of the topic) where no sound play atall when you try to play mp3 files. When trying to play a track of the progress indicator moves VERY slowly and jumps in a stuttering mode and no sound whatsoever is coming through the speakers. He is a recent problem.

    All audio files work on other audio programs like Real player, quick time e.t.c. and the sound comes from the computer normally. Only the sound that I have are with windows media player when you try to play mp3 files. Still fine read video files, wav files play fine. How boring is that he suddenly decided he likes are more mp3 files!

    More annoying, I stumbled upon the fact that I can't uninstall the reader as in Vista, it is part of the operating system literal, I can't download and install WMP install package from Microsoft because I tried and it tells me that I have a more recent version of Windows media player and therefore impossible to use the downloaded Setup program to install or repair windows media player. It is therefore impossible for me to get an installation package that is newer than the one on the computer, you would have thought that the downloadable installation on the microsoft Web site would be the more recent but no!

    I can't think of a way to solve this problem. For me it feels strongly a Codec issue to do with MP3 and WMP but I don't really know about Codecs enough to go on the setting of the specific Codec with the question, or even track down which codec it is perhaps whether she "is" a codec problem in the first place.

    I tried settings with the menu of options in WMP 11 troubleshooting unsuccessful (obviously), I also tried an audio tool / repair of breakdowns than microsfts audio troubleshooting prompted me to try, that of no problems with the actual audio devices on the system... I KNOW, his problem with WMP and mp3 files!

    So, to summarize, WMP doesn't read MP3 files, I can't run a repair tool that there is no 'installation' to WMP 11 package, it is not an uninstall utility is which means that I can't uninstall it to reinstall a new, I can't download the installation package and run it as apparently I have a more current version than is available on the microsoft Web site. Then what should I do?

    I need some advice on how to go about trying to solve this problem I've hit a bit of a brick wall...

    Any advice would be much appreciated!

    FIXED!

    randomly enough rate and bit depth format sample somehow has set high in the sound control panel, advanced driver.

    After hitting "restore defaults" it resets the depth of rate and little sample return at: 16 bit 44.1 khz

    The sound now plays perfectly.

    Weird it performs only mp3 files!

    Thanks for the help people, it seems that I ended up sorting out on my own though! Yay for me! haha
