• 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?

  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.

• Why windows media player is not reading my DVD, and how do I install windows media player decoder using my drive from windows XP Professional?

  Media player from Windows

  Why windows media player is not reading my DVD, and how do I install the windows media player decoder using my disk of windows XP Professional

  FWIW... Win XP cannot natively recognize Commercial
  DVD video... it requires a DVD decoder. And... He
  is not a DVD decoder on your Win XP Pro drive.

  If you could play before commercial video DVD...
  do a system restore to a time before this started
  may be your solution.

  Or you could buy a DVD decoder at the following link:

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

  Info about DVD decoders:
  Plug-ins for Windows Media Player

  (works on XP/Vista/7)

  Or... you can try to download and install one of the
  Following codec packs.

• Why my Windows media player XP unable to play photo high megapixels (2 to 3 megapixels)

  Hey microsoft,.

  I have do deal with XP Windows media player can play the photo high megapixels (2 to 3 megapixels). But when you use Windows media player from Vista can play.

  Darren,
  a couple of things quickly...
  first of all, make sure that the extended monitor is configured under the resolutions of your monitor and screen. Seems that the resolution is not set correctly.
  Second, you can do a BING search on the type of program photo/slide show that you want to use. There are many free third-party software out there. Just be careful where get you it.

• My copy of windows media player 11 does not play video.

  My copy of windows media player 11 does not play video. When you try to play the video (usually an avi file) I get audio and visualization. I tried to uninstall and install new, but does not. I chose also to all types of files media player by default but video still does not play.

  An avi file is simply a container that may have different types of files in it for video and audio.

  You probably don't have the correct Codec to play the video.

  Either download a codec pack such as K-lite or download a little program called G-spot, open it and drag your avi file in the center of the small window of G-spot.

  It will then tell you what Codec uses the avi file. You can then Google that particulat Codec, download and install it.

  See you soon,.

• Windows Media Player 11 lists and plays each song twice

  Why Windows Media Player 11 list and play each song twice without being in a loop? Help me

  I have problems with windows media player 11 playing each son twice and it is very annoying.  How can I solve this problem?

  Sara: I suggest that you try to reset the media library. Note firstly reset the library will make you lose all play counts and ratings too. Then, follow these steps:

  -Restart the PC.
  -Click Start, type services.msc in the search field and press ENTER. In Services, locate the Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service. If its status is started, double-click on the service and click on stop.
  -Click Start, type %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft in the search field and press ENTER. This folder opens in Windows Explorer.
  -In this folder, delete the folder Media Player. If you do not see the folder, then it is probably hidden. Set Explorer to view the hidden files and folders and show protected system files.
  -Launch WMP, your library will have been reset and will be rebuilt. Check if the problem persists.

  I was wondering... you are totally unable to download the file

  If you right click the executable for Windows Media Player and

  Windows 95, chosen for Compatibility Mode? If_Yes_try
  unchecking the box / apply / OK.

  It might be the next thread deals with the same issue...

  Method 1:

  You can try to reset the DRM licenses and check if the problem persists.

  Important: Reset DRM tool removes all existing Windows Media DRM licenses and licenses of Zune DRM on your current installation of Windows 7. Reset DRM tool should only be used if all Zune DRM and Windows Media DRM content playback does not work. After the following process is finished, you must license the DRM from your Windows 7 computer.

  Download DRM reset tool and save it to your desktop. To download this file, visit the following Web site:

  a. right-click ResetDRM.exe and then click Run as administrator to reset the Windows Media DRM.

  Method 2:

  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.

• Why windows media player allows me to 'slide' video files to cd/dvd to computer sync?

  I am trying to copy a video disc that I made to my computer, but when I try to sync windows media player does not allow me to drag the files in place for this operation! When I ask your help files that they not give information for the music of copy/extraction of video files! Why are you being *?

  Hi Ronald,.

  Thanks for posting your query in the Microsoft Community Forums.

  According to the description of the problem, it seems that you can not drag video files from a drive on the Windows Media Player.

  I would appreciate it if you could answer the following questions to help you best:

  1. what happens when you try to drag the files?

  2. do you get an error message?

  3 have there been recent changes made on the computer before the show?

  I suggest to copy the files on the desktop and try to drag and check if this may help. The player adds automatically a file that you play from removable media such as a CD or DVD.
