Windows media missing IMPROVEMENTS player

Hello.

When I go to the options of improvements & try to use... Well they are missing!
I mean that it opens the refinements in the bottom of the player, but they are simply not there.

the scroll arrows are there to flick playing speed, graphic equalizer, wow, srs, dolby ect, ect ect... but all that is there are blank places in the player, as the functions have been removed or something.

Any ideas how I can re - install the drive? I can do it from the installation disc? or is their a program of repair on this site? Thanks :)

    Hello

    What operating system is installed on the computer?

    In many cases, the reader can download information from the media for you and add it to your files automatically. For example, when you rip a CD, the player can search an online database and download information from media on the tracks on the CD.

    The player can periodically analyze the contents of the Player library for items that are missing information on the media. First, it matches the items in your Player library to entries in the online database, and then it downloads the missing media information and adds it to the files in the Player library automatically.

    For more information, see the following article:

  • Network of Windows media sharing service player does not start - Vista and PS3

    I am running Vista 32 bit Home Premium and trying to share my media to DLNA on my PS3 PC using Windows Media Sharing Service. UPnP is enabled. Network discovery is turned on. File sharing is enabled. Media sharing is turned on.

    Whenever I visit Windows Media Player or try to change the setting of sharing media in network and sharing Center, there is the error message "media sharing is currently disabled, either because the sharing service is not running or your firewall settings have changed. To restart sharing, you must first confirm your settings.

    During the deactivation and reactivation of sharing multimedia files, I never see PS3 on the list (not a single unknown device appears). Also I see no Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service on the list of Services - there is no way to toggle the service or do start automatically.

    There are several user accounts on this PC and I made the changes on my admin account.

    Tried a 3rd party software Java "PS3 Media Server" and makes my Vista computer show on PS3 without parameters or modifications to firewall. This suggests that the WIFI, router, network discovery and UPnP work. I prefer to use Windows services if I would only get their work.

    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Hello chisox05matt,

    Thank you for visiting the Microsoft answers Site.

    You can check with the device manufacturer for more information about recording and playback. This can occur if the video was recorded in landscape mode. Try to change the display or orientation in software video editing for playback in Windows Media Center or Windows Media player.

    In addition, you can also see the thread below that contains information about a similar problem.

  • Windows Media 32-bit Player has stopped working with the error "failed to run the server.

    Original title: Windows Media Player does not start

    I am running window 8.1 on a HP laptop.  I have the two 32-bit and 64-bit Windows Media Player installed, I can start 64-bit with no problem, but 32 bit work do not.  When I try to play music directly I get the error "Server execution failed", I tried all the option provide fron uninstall and reinstall as has been suggested, but nothing helped.  I need to have the 32-bit to run or have the 64-bit by default. Help!

    Thanks for the reply, but after working with it, I solved the problem.

    1. rename the program (x 86) folder (32-bit) / Windows Media Player for everything you want

    2 copy the Windows Media Player folder in the Program Files (64-bit) folder and paste it into the program file (x 86) folder.

    3. This puts an uncorrupted in the default path, Windows Media Player

    This worked very well for me.  It also leaves a version uncorrupted for future needs.

    Sometimes simple is better.

  • Mobile device does not synchronize with Windows Media player

    My mobile device (Pharos Traveler 137) running windows media 10 mobile player is not detected by Windows Media Player 11 running in Vista.  Connected and synchronized correctly for months, it is not so now, even if the mobile device is detected by the computer and synchronizes correctly for other purposes such as outlook, files, etc..   How to get Windows Media Player to detect once more unit (specifically the card 8 GB storage) in the window of synchronization?

    Hello
     
    1. don't you make changes before the show?
    2. is the device detected on the computer?
     
    Step 1: We recommend that you check if the sync settings are correct. To do this, follow these steps.
    1 open Windows Media Player.
    2. click on the arrow below the Sync tab, point to the device, and then click Advanced Options.
    3. the Properties dialog box for your device is displayed. Tab sync, box start sync when device connects checkbox.
    4 restart the media player.
    The next time that you want sync, connect the device to your computer and click on the Synchronize tab, then click Start Sync.
     
    Step 2: Add a device to sync in Windows Media Player.
    1. start Windows Media Player and connect your portable device into a USB port on your computer. A box of "Windows Media Player ‑‑ Device Setup" appears, showing that he recognized the device and provides an opportunity for you to name your device.
    2. read how the player will sync your device, which is directly under where you type the name of the device. If storage of the device is more than 4 gigabytes, for example, and your library on Windows Media Player fits on this device, the player chooses automatic.
    3. selection of automatic synchronization means that your device will reflect all your Windows Media Player library and it will do so that whenever it is connected. Click on "Finish".
    4. to synchronize only some of your library when the player chose automatic, you can choose what will sync when you open Windows Media Player. Click on the portable device in the right pane and drag the items you want to synchronize with this device.
    5. selection of a manual synchronization indicates that the player has detected that the portable device has no place for your entire library. Click on "Finish". Open Windows Media Player, select the portable device in the right pane and drag the items you want to synchronize with this device.
