• Windows Media Player error message says that I don't have the media usage rights acquisition.

  Original title: Windows Media Player

  Am not able to play music in Windows Media Player to the library after the transfer of music from another computer.  Error message says that I don't have the media usage rights acquisition.

  Hello

  Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community and we give the opportunity to help you.

  Cause of the error:

  Windows Media Player uses Microsoft Digital Rights Management (DRM) to protect the rights of content owners who protect their music or video products in this manner. You must have usage rights required to play, burn, or sync protected content.

   

  How to upgrade the DRM license?

  By default, Windows Media Player will automatically attempt to acquire the rights of use in silence unless the server requires some input on your part (for example, registration or tax information). You can disable the automatic rights acquisition. In this case, you will be asked to obtain the rights for any new content that requires them. To prevent Windows Media Player from acquiring rights automatically, do the following:

  a. click on the arrow on the now playing tab, and then click Other Options.

  b. click on the Privacy tab, and clear the automatically check if protected files need to be refreshed check.

  Please note that this setting affects not acquisition of rights of use of online stores.

• Why windows media player displays only the names of original files?

  Windows Media Player only shows the original file names that can be confusing if I changed the name of a file. The name of the file (usually audio files) is correct in Windows Explorer, but in the component list of WMP, it's often the old file name. Why is this and what can I do about it? Advice would be appreciated. TA. Kevin.

  What the file type of these music files (MP3, WMA, WAV...)?

  WMP usually displays the title tags of the music file, which is independent of the file name. However, WMP always displays the current file name in the path column of the file, which can be activated by right clicking on a column header and select choose columns.

  Hello

  You might have items in your library in Windows Media Player that are missing or incorrect information to the media, such as the titles of the songs, track numbers, artist names, album, or genre. Incorrect information can be added when you ripped the tracks from the CD or because you used another program to rip your CDs.

• Windows media player displays the video like a color negative

  Had to wipe my hard drive and do a reinstall of Win - XP. Media player format has changed (another screen w / options) when you open attachments to emails, they play like color negatives. The audio seems normal, but the video is very bad.

  When you reinstall the operating system... you need to update completely
  the system for the current versions. You may need to
  update your video driver and you need also a current more
  version of Windows Media Player.

  I want to share my Windows Media Player and have checked all the boxes according to the needs

  But when I go to another identical computer, it displays the name of the library to share but said

  "Before you can play items in the library, you must first access to the library" it works the opposite way round - I can see the other computer media and play from there, but cannot read any media on this computer.
