• any copy forbidden error when you try to watch HBO in windows media center.

  I get all copying prohibited error when you try to watch HBO in windows media center. It seems that my PlayReady is corrupt. Whenever I try to update game ready to go in Media Center, it fails.

  Still did not work.

  Then did it

  (5) download http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink?LinkId=105000 ResetDRM.exe

  (6) using winrar or winzip to extract files to ResetDRM.exe (ADVPACK. DLL CleanDRM.exe resetdrm.inf) to a temporary folder. ResetDRM does not work by itself on Windows 8 in any compatibility mode so you MUST check out it

  (7) use the Explorer to find cmd.exe to C:\Windows\System32

  (8) right click on cmd.exe and "run as Administrator".

  (9) cd to the temporary folder where you extracted ResetDRM.exe

  (10) run "CleanDRM.exe - v". A text window opens after a few seconds and check that several files have been deleted. If there is an error that a resource could not be opened for exclusive access, you may need to reboot and try again after making sure that Media Center does not start automatically

  Reset. Now works. Wow what a PITA.

  I think that it was all caused by have to swap disks.

  ERROR: Windows Media Player encountered a problem while playing the file. For any additional help, click Help on the Web.

  I get the error Windows Media Player 11.0.6001.7007.  "Windows Media Player encountered a problem while playing the file. For any additional help, click Help on the Web frequently. "What happens on the music or video files even those I had on my PC for a long time.  They work some days and other days they don't.  I have to reboot to clear it and it's really annoying. I can read a file and then 10 minutes later the same file will not play.  Sometimes after the error message, if I don't click Close, the video is not yet but the audio will not.

  I'm on a laptop HP DV5 with vista 32-bit and 4 GB memory such that shipped HP (Yes, 4 concerts and 32-bit).

  I don't know if it was related, but IE7 would continually fail to open, click on through the windows and should be completely closed.  essentially the WMV and IE are fails miserably on this laptop, and it was only 6 months old.  Firefox fixes my problem of browser.

  How can I fix this WMV as I can't UN/reinstall with Vista?

  I ran sfc/scannow after completion of the analysis, the results were that "windows resource protection finds corrupted but files could not solve some of them" gives then refers to where the cbs.log file is located. I tried to open the cbs log, and he says that access is denied.

  UPDATE: there seems to be a conflict between WMP and any other application that opens which can play the video with sound.  When I close firefox, and then the videos and sound can play (these same questions happened on IE7 and firefox was installed just yesterday).  I met the same problem with more than Pinnacle video editing software.  Is it possible to change a parameter with WMP as there is no sharing violation during a different application can play the video?

  SO thanks a lot!    I had to use the following steps to get your simple solution:

  1. Select Options under the button 'SYNC '.

  2. choose 'other Options '.

  3. click on the tab 'network '.

  4. only check box RTSP/TCP and HTTP and Multicast Streams allow the player Pourrecevoirun multicast stream (which meant I had to uncheck "RSTP/UDP"

  Hey nongeekbetty,

  The DVD is encoded for a different region. Most DVD readers only works with DVDs that are coded for the computer was purchased in the same region. So if you buy a DVD in one country and then try to play on one computer from another country this DVD could not play.

  a. Click Start.

  (b) in the search box, type Device Manager.

  c. right-click on the DVD drive.

  d. right-click on it and select Properties.

  e. make sure that the region will be resolved.
