  2 have the music files missing from the library of Windows Media Player (WMP) or their storage folder?
  3. are all of your files stored in the same folder?

WMP will add the file to your library.

  Windows will detect then all mp3 files. Note where is your music and then point Windows Media Player so that one or more specific records.

  Method 2:
  Check the settings of the library in windows media player. Steps to follow:

• Windows Media Player 11 cannot play a type of avi file. Lack of codec?

  I received a file video avi.  Media Player 11 cannot play even if avi is an accepted file type.  The message said something about not having a codec, how can I get the codec for Media Player 11 will play the video.

  There are many types of. AVI files... If yours goes

  This can be checked by using the free software GSpot:

  (on the next screen...
  left click: 'Download [GSpot 2.70]')

• Windows Media Player 11 cannot show MP4 video but can hear the sound

  Hi all, I prefer WMP on the other players, because he is able to play most of my MP4 without any lag. However, there are some MP4 files that do not show the Visual but audio is heard when I played against them on WMP. Interestingly, when the same MP4 files are played on other players, audio and video are very good. I take so that the files are ok, but may need to change the system or WMP.

  Appreciate any advice. I'm on Windows XP and WMP ver 11.0.5721.5280. Thank you very much.

  Hi lkahwai96,

  Were you able to play properly mp4 files in Windows Media Player earlier?

  You can follow this link & check if the problem persists:

• Windows Media Player won't find the files on the second hard drive

  Hi hope you can help with this.

  I have Windows 7 and Windows Media Player 12 on my PC.

  My office has two hard drives, one for the operating system and all programs and another larger (drive J:\) for all my files.

  All my audio files are stored in the J:\Audio folder, and this folder is also the default location for my music library (such as configured in Windows and WMP).

  When I load WMP files in J:\Audio are not displayed in the music library.

  If I right click on music > manage a music library and then manually delete the J:\ from the list of library locations, and then re-add it, WMP adds all the files to the library (a process that takes about 20 minutes).

  BUT if I close WMP and re - open again, these files are missing once again.

  It seems that WMP has a blind spot of my second hard drive.

  Any suggestions for what I can do to remedy this?

  Thank you very much!

  Neil.

  Well, I think I found a solution for me at least.

  There is an answer on this thread who has contributed to:

  http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Forum/Windows_7-pictures/songs-do-not-appear-in-the-Windows-Media-Player/a6e80b2e-7367-4529-9dab-5a38ba4167a5?page=5

  This is the fifth detention by djkel.

  This is a summary:

  To resolve this problem, delete the Windows Media Player database. To do this, follow these steps:
   
  1. exit Windows Media Player.
  2. click on start, run, type %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft\Media Player, and then click OK.
  3. Select all the files in the folder and then click on Delete on the file menu.
  Note you don't have to remove the folders that are in this folder.
  4. restart Windows Media Player.

  One of the files that I had to delete not able to be removed first because "Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service" was used. I was able to follow the steps on this page to temporarily stop the service and allow the file to be deleted:

  http://www.mydigitallife.info/how-to-disable-Windows-7-Media-Player-network-sharing-service-wmpnetwk/

  Then when I have opened WMP 12 database has been repopulated with my files... and all files remain when the 12 WPM has been closed and then reopened. I hope it's a permanent fix.

  Not sure if this will help your problem, Jeff, but I hope that.

• Windows Media Player error on the MP3 it burned

  I have read many responses to this question but have not yet found a solution. SITUATION: I make a list of songs [MP3] and make sure that it is a burn list. I keep pressing "start burn." Screen then pop in to say, ' Windows Media Player cannot burn some files. To investigate the problem, click on the icon next to the selection to burn the files. "After some research, I found the error icons in a list in the left panel under" blank CD (: D) "." I found that there are 3 songs with errors, all MP3s unprotected as the rest of the files. Could someone tell me please how to fix these songs so I can burn the entire CD?

  P.S. The convenience store "not found etc and Burning CD" said there is no problem.

  I also read that my computer may have lost a 'codec' (as I was already able to burn CDs without problem).

  Thank you

  You burn data (with mp3) disc or a disc of music?

  If the first case, use this freeware instead of WMP:

  http://CDBurnerXP.se/?lang=en

  If you expect WMP to transform files in a disc of music so I would convert it them before burning (there are converters free mp3 in WAV on the web).

  Not a complete solution, but if I were you I would give up WMP to burn it ALL up and we CDBurner XP as its much more flexible.

  If you remove a Codec, the easiest thing is to install one of the free Codec pack available on the net.

  See you soon,.
