    Yes, Windows Media Player 12 has all these features and you do not need to return to Media Player 11.

    You can find them in the Windows Media Player enhancements configuration, the user must pass to WMP 12 now playing mode or view of the skin.

    All you need is good Codec

    Check here:

    Plug-ins for Windows Media Player
    http://www.Microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/player/plugins.aspx

    -------------------------------------------------------------

    If 64 bits and you need codec.

    Read this 1st and go that route, or use the one below. (Vista or Windows 7)

    http://www.Vistax64.com/sound-audio/152850-Vista-codec-pack-32bit-64bit-Media-Player-codecs.html

    --------------------------------------------------------------------

    If 64-bit - can run WMP in 32 or 64 bit mode.

    Or try these: download - SAVE - go to the place where your put them RIGHT CLICK – RUN AS ADMIN.

    For 32-bit use these - OR the 32 bit ones listed above which I prefer.

    K - Lite Codec Pack 10.0.0 (or newer)
    http://www.codecguide.com/

    Use them for 64-bit:

    K - Lite Codec Pack (64-bit) 10.0.0 (or newer)
    http://www.codecguide.com/

    K - Lite now includes BOTH 32 and 64 bits in a single download installable.

    Also look for updates, September 6, 2013, was K-Lite Codec Pack 10.0.3
    Download and install it after the main program.

    -------------------------------------------------------------

    You know that you use WMP 32 or 64

    Change, modify or value 64-bit Windows Media Player 11 (WMP11) in Windows Vista x 64 as default (or WMP12 - Windows7)
