• Is it possible to adjust the sound volume of Windows to more than 100%?

  Hello

  I have a very simple question:

  Is it possible to adjust the sound volume of Windows to more than 100%?

  I explain why I need to do this:
  I can watch DVD files or .avi with my computer and VLC, that allows to adjust the volume to 100%. Some DVDs have a very low sound. So if I set VLC to 200% volume and the system volume to 100%, I can watch movies in good sound conditions. Then, my computer speakers are strong enough for me watching a movie.

  However, I have a problem with VSD: I use VOD with Windows media player and that player does not allow me to adjust the sound to more than 100%. So I put the sound of Windows media player at 100%, the sound of Windows to 100%, but the sound is very low.

  Please don't tell me to buy speakers, mine are pretty strong, and I find it uncomfortable to plug the speakers.

  Please don't tell me to use a software that increase the volume of the file I want to watch VOD.

  Is there a way to increase the sound volume of Windows to more than 100%?

  Please don t tell me this, please don t tell me that. You want to hear other people's opinions or what?

  AFAIK all sound level settings in Windows are synchronized and if you change the sound level in the properties of the speaker at the same level will appear in the Windows for the Volume Mobility Center and the maximum level is 100%. No more than that.

  As you already wrote the sound level can be increased in combination with Windows and some players.

  Is there any other way to watch these videos, but using WMP?

• How can I get files mp4 video to appear in genres other than the kind of 'The other' in Windows Media Center?

  Hello

  I have mp4 video files that I can't to the list under the genres that I want to do in Windows Media Center.

  I have the list of the kind I want them to appear as in the Details section on the right of the video click, but in the movies section, they appear under the type 'other '? Why?

  Do I need a '. '. XML data file"to make it work?

  I noticed all movie files that can take the date meta online have 2 to 3 "." XML files"in their records. These video files appear under the genres as they should.

  I tried to make one. XML file for the video files that can't dry meta data online but they always appear under 'Other' type only.

  I need more than 1. XML meta data file? If I do what they are and how can I do it myself?

  Can someone lead me to a site that explains how all the. Meta data files XML that I need to make this work.

  Thank you

  Hello

  I did a long time ago and it does not help.

  However, I found a solution.

  'Master Media Center' (free version of the program) will download the XML MetaData files and place them in the folder of video/film. This will force even make a MetaData XML file if it cannot find anything online.

  Apparently, Windows Media Center uses XML files to determine what kinds of display movies under.

  Without a metadata file XML Media Center will put the video file in the type 'Other' even if you wrote a kind under details.

  Now, if I can get my Windows Media Center to stop crashing when I open "Movies!

• DV6-6c40ca: more than 100 seconds to boot Windows 7 on dv6-6c40ca

  My laptop takes more than 100 seconds to start. It is extremely slow.

  I tried all the latest drivers, reinstall windows, upgrade to 240 GB Intel SSD, dsabling software such as antoviruses, and nothing does not.

  I tried the chipset driver:

  Radeon-Crimson-15.12-SB-SATA-AHCI-win10-WIN8.1-Win7-64bit.exe

  but it did not help.

  I get my measurements from the windows of the values of diagnostic performance in Event Viewer. There is no device in my device manager.

  Can anyone help? I would like to know what the last driver from chipset more up-to-date for this laptop to be used.

  BIOS version is F.1C according to HP Support Assistant software. This would be the wrong version?

  I checked the Task Manager frequently and there is no CPU hogs.

  I checked the Device Manager and there are no missing drivers.

  Here's what I discovered. After that uninstall all non updated security windows, my boot time fell to about 35 seconds. I reinstalled the updates in a group of 5, rebooted twice and checked the performance disk to windows Event Viewer log. It was my metric.

  After you have reinstalled all of the updates, my boot time hovered between 25 and 35 seconds.

  What I think has happened, is that if you install both too many updates, something goes wrong. I think that the only solution that I can gather from this is that with some computers, you must install the windows updates in smaller batches. I did have this problem on other computers well. SO there you have it, one more turn to try for everyone that this reading of google searches.

• How to get Vista Windows Media Center to really stop video

  During playback of a video in WMC the stop button takes me to the screen with various options beginning with 'Done '. When
  'fact' is selected the video goes into the small PIP with square stopped blue and remains here and in "Now Playing".

  How do I really stop a video rather than have him act as if he is only suspended.

  When I press 'stop' and 'fact' I want that it shut down completely.

  Hi Dazema,

  It is the occurrence of same process even in my computer when any type of video. This is normal.

  You can also pass the option to click on the left arrow to return to Windows Media Center options after stopping the video or the video playback.

• 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.

• Windows Media Center won't play video, but Windows Media Player will be?

  I'm reading a video .avi with the xvid codec. I installed the codec earlier and it plays fine in Windows Media Player, but when I try to play in Windows Media Center, it indicates that one or more codecs are required to play this file, but they cannot be found. I know I would just watch with Windows Media Player instead of Media Center, but I want to watch it on my Media Center extension (my Xbox). I'm running Windows Vista Ultimate, 64-bit. Why does Windows Media Player with this codec and Windows Media Center not work? How can I solve this problem?

  -Slick05_1

  Hi Slick05_1,

  Thanks for the replies on the forum.

  Given that the Microsoft Vista Media Center and XBOX do not play the files suggest it would need to be a codec which solves the problem or maybe file conversion which would solve the problems you are experiencing.  Since the codecs for files is not something written by Microsoft, we do not have the information for that in our system.

  What I suggest is to go to your search engine preferred and in the search line and typing "is possible to play VLC on XBOX.

  WARNING:

  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.

  What I suggest also done an online search using your favorite search engine for "play MKV files in Vista x 64 Media Center" to find whether there may be suggestions about codecs or these codecs created by other organizations then Microsoft.

  Please let us know if you are able to get this to work for you.

  Best regards

• Stop the mouse pointer to show more of Windows Media Center

  Original title: Windows Media Center

  Hello

  Is there a way to stop the mouse pointer to show more of Windows Media Center, other than moving it?

  I note that adobe flash player can do it in a web page, then why not an 'entire' application such as Windows Media Center?

  Thank you

  Hi hiphoppoprock,

  In Windows Mode, the pointer in Windows Media center is designed to be displayed.

  In order to have the pointer automatically disappear you need to change the Mode full screen.

  Hello chisox05matt,

  Thank you for visiting the Microsoft answers Site.

  You can check with the device manufacturer for more information about recording and playback. This can occur if the video was recorded in landscape mode. Try to change the display or orientation in software video editing for playback in Windows Media Center or Windows Media player.

  In addition, you can also see the thread below that contains information about a similar problem.
