  • Why are my fuzzy HD videos in Windows Media Player full-screen?

    When I downloaded my videos I wanted them in HD so I used a converter to convert videos in HD. When I play in Windows Media Player, it is blurred. I played it to players like DAplayer, Divx Player, VLC Player, Freesmith Player, and Windows Media Player. I noticed that if I play the video in how it was originally without convert HD he plays well, but it depends on whether or not the video is in HD right from the start. If it wasn't in HD from the beginning, when I first downloaded the video then it will not be in HD. Why this phenomenon happens and is there a way to fix it. Also, if I play the HD video that is converted in a small screen, it plays in HD. If it is full screen it's blurry.

    It depends on the resolution on the downloaded video and the native resolution of your screen. If the movies are 320 x 240 or 640 x 480 (or even smaller size), and that your monitor is 1600 x 900 or similar larger, then the full screen video will be blurred, no matter what you do. It's the same thing as taking a wallet-sized photo and blow up to 8 x 10. The pixels are stretched to the point of not be smoother.

  • Why Firefox 5 will not see the Windows Media Player Plugin?

    Hello useful Mozilla expert,

    When I click on a link to play a standard WMV video in Firefox 5, in the movie player window it is said 'Click here to download the'.

    When I click on 'Click here to download the plugin' in Firefox 5, I get a panel of Firefox that says I need to Windows Media Player 11, but I already Windows Media Player 12 and the browser Firefox WMP plugin installed on this computer... it worked fine in Firefox 3.6.

    If I then click to install the Windows Media Player 11 plugin, it goes to another Firefox sign that says: ' no plug-ins have been installed, Windows Media Player 11 - no available '. Then, there is a "manual install" button, and when I click, it takes me to a third party plugin site called 'InteroperabilityBridges.com' which has a plugin Firefox WMP dated April 2007 available.

    Here is the link he gives... http://www.interoperabilitybridges.com/Windows-Media-Player-Firefox-plugin-download

    When I check my Panel "programs and features" in Windows 7 on my control panel, I can see that I have already installed something called, "Windows Media Player Firefox Plugin" installed and it is dated 10/24/2010 and it is version 1.0.0.8

    Despite having already the required plugin installed and showing in my control panel, programs and features, this WMP plugin does not appear on my plugins Firefox 5 Panel. So I tried to re - install with the installer of origin and available to the above URL Setup (they seem to be the same, except my installer of origin has a date of 2010).

    I also tried the 'fix' option in the setup of the plugin... it still does not appear in Firefox 5, nor this browser will play a WMV file in the integrated test related troubleshooting page plugin Mozilla WMP player, or other pages that embedded the WMV players.

    So the question is, why is Firefox 5 demanding I install a Windows Media Player plug-in older, version 1.0.0.8 of 2007 when I have already installed...? and why it won't work?

    I went through all the troubleshooting information in Mozilla and go to the page dedicated to this subject and nothing works...

    http://blogs.technet.com/b/Port25/archive/2007/04/16/Windows-Media-Player-plug-in-for-Firefox.aspx

    What is the solution? The upgrade again for the 3rd time in the last 2 months, this is not an option... I'm tired of going through all the difficult steps of the upgrade and find what has changed and rejected another upgrade of the browser Mozilla and re - install plugins, extensions, modules and customizations and repair everything that does not work, as I always do now with Firefox 5.

    It seems that as soon as I get most things squared away in a new browser from Mozilla, then they came out with three new releases, so when I'm still struggling with the FF5 version (as I am now) there will be version 9 I get annoying constant 'reminders' upgrade to.

    Thank you

    I'm doing the transcription of some audio files that work with windows media player. IT takes too long to move back between the word document and the player controls. I must be able to slow down or stop the player every so often, with the use of the keyboard instead of the mouse every time.

    Hello

    see if they help you

    All features and buttons in Windows Media Player are accessible to you by using the keyboard only. The player offers a variety of keyboard shortcuts for the more commonly used commands and buttons that you can use to control the player from your keyboard or with macros. The following table shows the various keyboard shortcuts for the player.

    Hello

    Please make all below even if you have done some before as it is often the set of operations which solves
    the question.

    Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double-click on the device - driver tab - click
    Update the drivers (this will probably do nothing) - then RIGHT click the drive - UNINSTALL - REBOOT
    This will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue below.

    Then, work your way through these - don't forget the drive might be bad, could be a loose cable or
    slight corrosion on the contacts (usually for a laptop) and other issues.

    Another possibility is that the cables are loose. Remove ALL power, then make sure that the cables in both
    ends. Remove and replace, do not just tight. For laptops, you can often clean power and
    contacts data with a pencil eraser.

    Some DVD players do not use the Windows default drivers so check with the manufacturer of system and
    manufacturer of device to see if there is a firmware or drivers for your drive if necessary.

    Hope these helps.

  • The best Windows media player 11 dvd decoder?

    I had deleted my computer and re-intalled my xp home operating system.  (with sp3)  I have installed wmp11.  I now need a dvd decoder and opionions sought on one that suits.  I've never played DVD on this computer.  I've seen adds for roxio cineplayer, advanced corel which is the cheapest and set-top box to dvdse cyberlink power, but know nothing about them.  All others?

    I want to make sure that the "improvements" working properly.  (frame advance, video settings bright aka, cont, ect..)

    Also the ability to remove the nav bar for mode full-screen. (zoom would be as well)

    I ask because my brother compuer pro with wmp11 xp allow the video settings or zoom to work.

    I don't know what decoder he bought and he does not remember, so I don't know what to avoid.

    I'll def Standard comercial and burned dvd as well as avi and wmv.

    Thank you, Mark.

    PS please don't tell me not to use VLC.  There is no frame advance.  And is 'not' compatible 'screen Hunter' which I use for making screenshots in 1280 x 1024, which VLC can even begin to do.   (Yes screenhunter makes caps what is the resolution of your computer)

  • Windows Media Player 11, DVD video, not big enough in fullscreen

    During playback of movies DVD with WMP 11 and in full screen, the video does not stretch to the edge of the screen.

    I have a flat screen monitor set to 1600 x 900. When I entered the mode full screen the video becomes a bit larger, but does not fill the edges of the screen. In other players such as InterWinDVD player or video Media Player Classic DVD of the CCCP play full screen completely to the edges of the screen (except for two black borders on the top and bottom do wide screen of culture).

    However in WMP 11 200% is not big enough. I was wondering if it is possible to get the video to play 300 or 400% in size?

    Here's what I mean:
    http://img44.imageshack.us/i/wmp11problems.jpg/

    Notice how the video area (Pink) is not stretched to fit the vertical edges of the screen.

    I really like WMP 11 due to SRS wow effects. Unfortunately, since the upgrade to a monitor flat screen with a resolution of 1600 x 900 WMP 11 the fact that the culture of the video. Other players I use InterWin DVD or the Media Player Classic CCCP do that mean the culture of the video. I am running Windows XP with SP3.

    Hey Helldiver.

    Check if you have the plug-ins installed to support the features of DVDs on your Media Player. Windows Media Player is a complete DVD player when combined with a DVD decoder (MPEG-2 decoder) with features such as full-screen video playback controls, ads chapter DVD and integrated pouch.

    If you are running Windows Vista Home Premium or Windows Vista Ultimate, DVD capabilities are included as part of the operating system. If you are running Windows Vista Home Basic, Windows Vista business, or Windows Vista Enterprise, you can enhance your DVD playback experience by purchasing a pack of decoder DVD or upgrade to a more powerful version of Windows Vista.

    The problem is that Windows XP does not play DVD movies in native mode. You can
    have a DVD player, but it can only read DATA DVD at this time. In the order
    install a DVD codec to read video DVD discs. First we will
    Install this program from Microsoft and run it, and if you have a DVD
    Codec, it will appear in the display window. Download this program from
    here:

    If it shows that you don't have a codec DVD installed, then you can
    buy one on one of the links on this page:
