Use Windows Media Player 12 to "Play To" 2 devices at the same time?

I'm a big fan of play functionality in Windows Media Player 12 and I am able to play music to 2 devices in my house. I'd like to be able to "play to" both devices at the same time so that the music is synchronized in several rooms. This feature is coming in a future release?

    Can I use windows media player to play mp3 and have the recigition speech to convert to text?

    You can get on a conversion of 70% in reading a file in Windows Media Player using something like Dragon Naturally Speaking to convert. If you set the playback speed to slow in Windows Media Player to play > play speed, you will get a better result. The best option is to download the file to an audio transcription service, but which generally costs 0, 50-1, 00 per minute of audio.

  • is there a simple guide on how to use Windows Media Player to play MP3 files on a Web site

    I'm designing a simple website to a friend. They are singers and want 3 or 4 songs sample of people to listen to on the site.

    What is the easiest way to do this (I m not technical, it should be easy to understand)

    Idea is that the user accesses the page and chooss a song they click and hear 30-45 seconds of a recorded sample (MP3 file)

    Strive to do that. I thought it would be easy but can't seem to find a simple way to do it.

    Can it be done using Windows media player (records are MP3 files in the Player Windows Media.

    If you have a music video, your friends sing you could install a flash drive on the Web site. If it is just an audio file, you must download the file to a file free host then post a link to the file on the Web site.  If Windows Media Player comes into play depends on what media player the person clicking the link used as their default media player. Windows Media Player will play no role in the file on your website. The link below contains a list of free audio files, hosting sites. There are many others that you can find with a simple search on Google.
