Windows media player 11 sounds distorted

SYSTEM

Microsoft Windows XP

Media Center Edition

Version 2005

Service Pack 3

Windows Media Player 11.0.5721.5280

During playback of a DVD (movie) the image is perfect, but the sound is distorted.

During playback of a CD (music), the sound is perfect.

I was not able to find out why the sound is working on one but not the other. Any solution to my problem?

If the sound is distorted only during playback of the DVD? If you install AC3Filter, which helps?

    Hello

    1. who is the operating system installed on the computer?

    2 - is confined to a specific DVD problem?

    To resolve this problem, you can try to install the video codec and check if the problem persists.

    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 codecs to play and create digital media files.

    A codec can consist of two components: an encoder and a decoder. The encoder performs the compression function (coding) and the decoder performs the decompression function (decoding). Some codecs include both components and some codecs only one of them.

    More Codec please visit the following link:

    Codecs: Frequently asked questions

    If you are using Windows XP - please refer to this article:

    Troubleshooting DVD playback in the Windows Media Player for Windows XP

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/306318

    You can search your favorite engine and download and install the codec that is compatible with the operating system.

  • Windows Media Player - no sound for videos

    Windows Media Player 11 - will play videos (.) MOD files) and the DVD but with NO AUDIO.  It plays music (.mp3) files fine with sound, so I know the speakers work fine.  PowerDVD program will play audio and video very well, but no Media Player (or RealPlayer besides).  I seem to recall having this problem of her before but was able to get it fixed somehow.  I had to reformat my computer during the winter well and now again manage this noise problem.  I don't know if it's a codec issue or what, and if it's a codec problem I have no idea how to fix this.  I use Windows XP SP 3.  Any help would be appreciated.  Thank you.

    No guarantee... but installing an AC3 Filter can be
    worth a try:

    (FWIW... it's always a good idea to create a system)
    Restore point before installing software or updates)

    AC3Filter downloads
    http://AC3Filter.NET/wiki/Download_AC3Filter
    (tests - AC3Filter full 2.6.0b)

    Ignore the button 'Download' giant and scroll down
    the page slightly and on the left, click on the text: "AC3Filter full 2.6.0b"

    Download the filter on your desktop and install from there.

  • Problems with fluctuating volume of Windows Media Player

    After that I transferred MP3/WAV files to my old laptop which has Vista... for my new laptop which has Windows 7, my windows media player then started acting crazy during playback of music files.  The volume goes up and down, and during parties strong songs, it goes almost silent... with a few songs, it becomes just as hard very quickly and then just cut all together.  I tried tools audio fix from microsoft, and they were unable to help him.  Basically, it sounds like when you listen to music, and you would simply continue to cupping your ears again and again, as you can imagine is really annoying while you try to listen to music

    Try the following steps, presented by another poster, JoeyNice:

    6 steps that have helped me with this problem:

    (After looking at a few ideas from there I went and did my own investigation and arrested next steps the boring windows media player playback sound fluctuations)

    (1.) start the media player and go into menu improvements in media player andreset all default media player improvements and disable all improvements and equalizer, etc...

    (2.) do right click the speaker volume icon (located in the lower right corner of windows in the area of programs/notification bar) then andclick 'sounds' in the right click menu (or if "speaker" icon is not in the notification bar go to control panel and click on 'sounds')

    (3.) in the sounds of communications click menu tab and select 'status quo '.

    4.) , while on the sounds tab menu click play, and then click speakers allowing you to then click on properties

    5.) in the sounds-> speakers menu properties go to improvements and select 'Disable all sound effects'

    6.) while in the sounds-> speakers menu properties go to the Advanced tab and "restore default settings" , then click on apply and then OK and then apply and ok again and the sound menu

    These steps allowed me to be able to go to windows media player and listen to music with no fluctations (and you can now be able to turn on the equalizer again if you want to make adjustments, but if this causes the fluctuation back just turn Equalizer back off.) I could turn it back on after you follow the steps above with no fluctuation)

    Let us know if this suggestion helps with your problem of fluctuating volume.

    Sincerely,

    Marilyn

  • When you try to play .mp4 files in WMP, I hear the sound but the picture is distorted and I can't see the photo in Windows Media Player.

    * Original title: Windows Media PLayer

    I have Windows Media Player version 12 installed but when you try to play .mp4 files in WMP, I hear the sound but the picture is distorted and I can't see the picture.  Please see image attached.

    Even if I see that I can change the version of the file in a different format, I have the same problem with videos on websites that I can not of course change the format before playing these.

    I managed to fix the problem for about 20 minutes by flattening my computer re - install the operating system and this resolved until all updates have been through, and then it disappeared again.  I tried many codecs packs and this still does not help.

    My system is running Windows 7 and Media Player version is 12.0.7601.18840, which tells me that Media Player is the most recent version.

    Please can someone help?

    Open uninstall a program in windows and in the left click on the feature to turn on or off windows. Clear the check box of the window Media Player, and then click ok. This will uninstall the drive, and then restart.

    After restarting the same steps, now, check the box for the same and perform a restart and if all goes well it should solve the problem.

    Note: Make sure that Windows is up-to-date.

  • Frying or audio sound in Windows Media Player (especially for music files)

    I think this virus recently, I had on my PC has done major damage to my Windows Media Player files and music. It was working fine this past Saturday, but lately, I experienced technical difficulties with the sound. Music files do not play correctly. The sound is very distorted and scratchy and it sounds almost as if I'm playing music on a tape that has been eaten or warped. Sounds like kind of when you play a portable CD or a cassette player that runs on a low or dead battery. Sounds almost like the files are at a standstill, and then they sound normal, but it is on and off. I can't explain this well because it's really hard to describe. I transferred a lot of my music files on my mp3 player. Even when I play samples of the song on iTunes and Wal-Mart, I get the same problem. I've removed MusicMatch JukeBox on my computer because it prohibits with Media Player.

    I would like to get rid of the itching and the distortion on these music files. I don't know what I have to do. I printed a few instructions, but they are 15 pages long and a bit complicated to read sometimes. Do you know what problem I want to talk to? I don't know how it happened, but I bet that Media Player is not fully upgraded. I also tried the upgrade of WMP but that did not help either.

    Is there a way to relieve this itching and distortion on Media Player? What exactly is the problem I have?

    Sorry the long delay in his response (13/06/12)

    No, I have not found a software solution.  My problem is "solved" by the hard drive crashing / failing & replacement, re - install etc.

    However, I discover, before the crash, when I copied a part of the music on a USB stick and my iPod (led Seattle for THE & back and I wanted music - same 'bad') and was surprised when I plugged the USB on my car stereo - don't pop / does click - no idea why - at least the POPs & clicks were a "warning sign" of the crash of the hard drive.

    When I got home was purchased 8 more of USB drives (fits on music 10 hrs each) saved the rest of my music files.  Most were commerical and had the CD (somewhere), but some of the music was 'live' recorded at a meeting of extended family, which has turned into a festival of the song of sorts.  I was the only one to whom he recorded (after a few changes shared with others).  A week later, the HD crashed (prior to installation).

    Up to 12 USBs with music (and iPod) now and I'm not playing with CD while driving.

    If you have any music, videos, photos, you do not have another copy somewhere... maybe think about making a backup pronto... just in case.

    Take care

  • Portege R700 - sound only in Windows Media Player

    I have a R700 with the RealTec sound when you use Windows media player, but not when you try to listen in flash, video, or audio system PC.

    Can anyone help?

    Hi Artrek,

    What it means that the sound card is properly installed and you don t have yellow exclamation marks in Device Manager?

    Hmm generally with each program, you should be able to listen to audio on flash videos I would try an update of Adobe Flash Player. Make sure that you have installed the latest version of this program.

    The sound settings, you can check the Windows default audio output device. Make sure that the internal speakers are the default settings.
    By the way: If you see this problem with external speakers too?

    Thanks, I'm running Windows Vista on a Qosmio G40

    Hi guys

    You should take the recovery disc and needs to be reinstalled the operating system of the provided Toshiba DVD.
    Then visit the Toshiba European page and update the TV tuner and the audio driver.
