  • does not recognize Windows media, dvd player

    I have xp with media player 11. I also have a fast switching with six users on my desk. I think it's a fault of microsoft because a desktop Media Player recognizes DVD, on another it does not recognize my dvd player at all. Am I missing something here? I do * necessary to install the software for each user? None of the answers forum sense.

    I don't know what kind of computer you have, but I had the same problem with my Dell.  After you have reinstalled the sofeware Cyberlink PowerDVD, I have had no more problems.  The DVD have been recognized without incident.

  • Compaq 500 b (VS695UT): missing on Windows 10 DVD player

    I've had previously upgraded my desktop COMPAQ 500 b Windows 7 Pro computer to Windows 10 (free from Microsoft) and enjoyed.  Sometimes I watch DVD movies on the computer.  Recently, the DVD drive (drive DVD HP, model TS-H653) disappeared from my list of available drives.  I first thought that the drive has died and replaced by a new DVD SATA drive. (I kept the original drive) Needless to say that the new drive is not seen either.  I've checked all my connections cable without change. I did research page to download driver of H - P with no luck.  Any suggestions?

    Never mind.  The problem has been resolved.  It was a problem of double.

    The original drive has gone wrong, and SATA3 port on the motherboard stopped working.

    I plugged in a new DVD player with no change in symptoms (apparently dead).

    I felt that it was a new DVD player, so I plugged on another SATA port on my motherboard, and the computer she recognized immediately.

    Then, I placed the reader to original DVD in the computer, packaged for the replacement, buttoned-up DVD player my computer and got back to work, only to find that the computer no longer recognizes the DVD player again.

    I knew I had to see that it works, so I had to shut down the computer and replace the original DVD drive (AGAIN).  This time; I left the case open until I have confirmed that the new drive worked, and the original SATA3 port on the motherboard was actually dead.

    End result is a bad DVD player and a bad port SATA3 on the motherboard.

  • 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!

  • Windows media library player completes, but the library is not in the music folder.

    When I open Media Player, all my music is available to play.  However, when I open music folder in my documents, the songs do not exist.  Therefore, it is difficult to manage music.  A single note.  I have iTunes on my computer.  The iTunes of the file in the music folder exisits, but only contains about half of the songs.  I wonder if it is corrupt.

    Hello

    You did changes to the computer, before the show?

     
    Music, videos and photos from Windows records files on your computer, while the Windows Media Player library contains only links to these files.

    a. click the arrow below the library tab, and then click Add to library.
    b. click on the library tab, and then browse to the file you want on your computer. Or, if the file is displayed in the list pane, continue to the next step.
    c. right-click on the file, then Open file location.
     
    To find where all files are stored in a category, follow these steps:

  • Problems with reorded/live TV in Windows Media Center/player

    Having recently updated the drivers for my graphics (Nvidea GeForce GTX 460 SE) Windows Media Player/Center refuses to show any video image during an attempt to play live TV or TV recorded previously. I only get audio.
    My drivers are up to date and the only thing I can think that I've changed has been updated my graphic drivers. This is television shows that were working before.
    I have been using a third-party program to play these in the meantime, but obviously it is not compatible with my remote windows.
    Any suggestions?

    If it all started after updating the graphics driver, you can easily restore the driver.

    Try to card tv tuner driver update. Visit the tv tuner card manufacturer's Web site to download and install the latest version of the driver.

    Another thing, you could try resets WMC: -.

    Run the Setup again.

    Open WMC > tasks > settings > General > installation Windows Media Center > rerun the installation

    Does that help?

    If the above does not help then try to reset WMC: -.

    Open Control Panel > uninstall a program > turn Windows features on or off > scroll multimedia features > uncheck the box against Windows Media Center > follow the instructions on the screen > Reboot > open again to turn Windows features on or off in the control panel > scroll multimedia features > check the box against Windows Media Center.

    Now reconfigure WMC again.

    I would also suggest you to uninstall any third-party application you are using at the moment.

  • "Other libraries" adding Windows Media in Windows Media Center player.

    So, I am absolutely delighted by the distance streaming media in Windows Media Player. I run a guitar shop, and it was really nice to have all of my music at home, on my desk, can be played in the store. As opposed to everything I hold on my laptop.

    But the thing is that I run Windows Media Center on the TV, and all of my media that are on my laptop looks fantastic up there, covers of albums and video library and everything. But the thing is that I can not add the media that I'm streaming from remote media streaming option in Windows Media Center.

    I can play media in Windows Media Player, and it will appear in Windows Media Center, but without album art. And I can not play videos in Windows Media Center unless I open them manually with Windows Media Center.

    So basically, I ask if it is possible to add media in my "other libraries" using option of streaming WMP remote in the library in Windows Media Center?

    Thank you much for the help!

    -Tazzlyn

    If I understand what you're asking, you want to be able to use Internet in WMP
    streaming between two places, but with the Media Center interface? You can not
    do this.
     
    If you are using two computers on the same HOME, inside the media network
    Center interface, you can add folders to the library from another computer.
    Tasks, settings, multimedia library

  • How can I get the Windows for Windows Media 10 player I need to first?

    I have a new computer in a teaching environment.  A Windows 10 education version has been charged and there is no Windows Media Player.  I use Adobe Premiere and I need the player.  How to solve this?

    You, or the one who is the 'administrator' for this computer needs to go to the Microsoft website and download WMP. Most likely, on a computer of this type, the only person who can upload programs to the computer is a person with access to the administrator of the user log-on for this.
