• Windows Media Center/player will not play my AVCHD videos

  I have a Canon Vixia HF R300 that came with a CD-ROM utility transfer, but not with the video ver.2 (Pixela) browser, which is supposed to work with my camera, but does not come with it and I can't find a download for it. I was able to transfer videos on my computer but not able to watch videos, much less edit. My videos have been saved in a folder called TVD_AVCHD, then in separate folders with .cpi and .mts 'pages' and a separate JPEG image. I tried to click on all of these files and used Windows Media Center and Media Player, but it says that no videos not found. Help, please. I know that my videos are okay because I can visualize in my camcorder and my TV.

  Thank you!

  I guess you have to experiment... Try different media

  works.

• Windows Media Player 11 will not play video

  Windows Media Player 11 will not play DVD-video or video files from a SD card.  I tried several update codec options, but none were successful, including the option offered by Microsoft (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/download/AllDownloads.aspx?displang=en).  Windows tells me that a more recent update has been installed and refuses to go forward.

  Hi RonMcCulloch,

  ·         You receive an error message or error code?

  ·         What is the type of file you are trying to play?

  ·         The DVD I get recognized by the computer?

  ·         Did you do changes on the computer before the show?

  In the meantime, you can try to reduce hardware acceleration, and see if it resolves the problem. (Only if your video card supports hardware acceleration)

  a. open the screen resolution by clicking on the Start button, click Control Panel, and then under appearance and personalization, click adjust screen resolution.

  b. click on settings Advanced , the Troubleshooting tab and then click change settings.

  c. move the hardware acceleration slider toward none to reduce or turn off video hardware acceleration.

  d. click OKand then click restart now.

  Let us know if it helps.

• Windows Media Center visualizations will not work

  My Windows Media Center visualizations will not work for some reason any. its been like that for a while.
  When I listen to music and want to see my office shows that the program is still underway
  I thought it has something to do with the visualizations I instaled on Windows Media player
  (like ribbons and Upcube)
  I tried to remove them, they either come back or he will constantly ask me to go to it

  my system is portable

  • Windows Vista Edition home premium
    • Intel core 2 DUO

    32-bit operating system
    2.00 GB

  I missed a CD command before the directory (since corrected) so orders would be as follows:

  CD C:\program files\windows media player\visualizations\
  
  DIR

  You'll see the DLLs listed here, they are visualizations that have been installed (if the author decided to use directory default visualizations) NOTE: there may also be cases where the author badly spelled directory visualizations and used something like "visualizations".

  regsvr32.exe - u nom_fichier.dll  (use only the indicated file name that you want to remove)

  repeat if necessary.

• Windows Media Player 12 will not play or burn music CDs!

  Running Windows 7 Home Premium-Windows Media Player will play a DVD but will not play an audio CD, which begs the question: why it does not burn the CD using Roxio Burn (which just sits there doing nothing) just like WMP 12.  I tried uninstalling and reinstalling and suggestions in this forum, but nothing is done.  Microsoft has really any solution of constantly failing to player?  In addition, reinstalled my computer back to the State factory and Media Player STILL will NOT play or burn music CD.  Hello, Microsoft, I would rather download Media Player 11, which at least has worked, so tell me how to get that back.  Thank you.

  Are normally given CD detected?
  If not, the problem is probably with the drive itself - CD and DVD is access differently if we wouldn't necessarily affect each other.

• Windows Media Player 12 will not play mp4, mp3, wmv files through IIS hosted local site when the PC is disconnected from the Internet

  I have an IIS Web site 6.1 on local 32-bit Windows 7 machine that serves HTML and MP4 videos via Internet Explorer on the local computer.  An internet connection is not necessary because it is all local storage and local accommodations through IIS.  IIS is configured to serve the MP4 videos in the form of downloadable files, don't not streaming somehow.  I have the right MIME type ".mp4" with the installation of "video/mp4" in the IIS server, so I don't think that's the problem.

  When the machine is connected to the internet, by clicking on a video link MP4 in any HTML page served by the local IIS server results in Windows Media Player opening and playing the video in its own window.  However, when the Ethernet cable is unplugged, by clicking on the same results of video link MP4 in Windows Media Player by opening its own window, and then display this error message:

  Windows Media Player cannot play the file.  If the file is on the Internet, connect to the Internet.  If the file is on a removable storage card, insert the storage card.

  It's almost as if Windows Media Player has a bug and since it accesses this media file via a URL, but the machine is not connected to a network, he thinks that this file is unplayable.

  When the Ethernet cable is disconnected, the local IIS server is still all the HTML code and ActiveX content except for media files.  I also tried to access MP3 and WMV files via the IIS server to see if Windows Media Player will open those when the computer is disconnected from the Internet.  These caused also Windows Media Player files display the same error message.

  I tried the VLC (VideoLAN) Player after changing the property file in VLC of WMP for .mp4 files extension.  With VLC installed and the extension changed to VLS property, I can download/open the MP4 video using the link in the web page served by IIS all when they are disconnected from the internet.  The only thing I can't do is get VLC player to open and play the video simply by clicking on the link in Internet Explore web pages served by the local IIS server.

  I would like to make use of Internet Explorer and Windows Media Player with this IIS server that serves the MP4 videos rather than using VLC player.

  Thank you

  Michael Rayman

  I finally found the answer to my problem:

  When they are disconnected from the internet, mysteriously, Windows Media Player 12 requires that you check a checkbox in tools > Options... > zone settings tab player called "Internet connection (ignore the other commands).  Once this box is checked and the settings saved on APPLY, then Windows Media Player 12 will play videos served by the local IIS server on the same machine, while disconnected from the Internet.

• Windows Media Center displays/does not play videos in folders of same accurate as they have always been saved

  Videos that previously played by Windows Media Center (which came installed on my laptop) suddenly stopped appearing in Windows Media Center records, although some videos (very few) are always show and play exact same files on my hard drive as videos which stopped working.

  I don't know that I did something to cause this, although maybe I did, inadvertently, or certain updates or new facilities caused program.

  Please help, I use Windows Media Center as my main videos media player. Windows Media Center is not connected to a TV, just use it as a media player on my laptop.

  He also noted - I recently moved several files from my hard drive to an external drive, if it will be of any significance.

  Thank you.

  you go into media center tasks and add new locations to
  storage/libraries? some external drives can be a problem, too.
   
  best bet is a system restore. You can CANCEL a system restore if it does not work.

  =================================
  Windows Media Player cannot rotate a video.

  Windows Live Movie Maker can turn a video clip, but you
  may need to convert the video to a compatible format like
  . WMV, before you can import it into Windows Live Movie
  Maker.

  See the following screenshot.

• the Windows media player 12 will not play 3gp (from mobile phone) with sound files

  I have windows 7 media player 12 and when the videos are downloaded from phone video shows but with no sound. Have all the updates so far I know. Turn windows media player

  12.0.7600.16415

  Hi vett82ce, 

  You will need a codec to play the video file. A codec is a software to compress or decompress a digital media file, such as a song or a video. Windows Media Player and other programs use the codec to play and create digital media files.

  You can check the link to see the guidelines on the issue below:

  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/codecs-frequently-asked-questions

  You can use the link provided below and check if you get the necessary codec to download depending on the type of file, you try to play.
  http://www.Microsoft.com/downloads/en/default.aspx

  You can also use your favorite search engine to download and install a codec based on the file type, you must use.

  NOTE- 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.

• Windows Media player 12 will not play .avi files

  Original title: Media Player 12

  I have WMP12 on my windows 7 and never had a problem 2 days ago. Now I can't play video files, it seems to be only the .avi files. When I click on it I get a message saying that windows media player has stopped working and is looking for a solution. Some of these files, I had some time and always played using WMP12 without problems. It will play everything, MP4, MP3, audio books simply not excerpts from movies avi, I looked for updates, codec & addons, nothing helps, any suggestions

  I already have VLC that I use for the .mkv files, but I prefer WMP it has better quality image and sound. I downloaded the codecs from the link you gave me, (Combined-Community-Codec-Pack-2013-08-01) and installed it. Yay it worked. Thank you very much
