Windows Media Player - How to delete photos/videos
On my dv8t running win 7 64 bit, when I download pix or videos on my laptop
the pix stored in my pix, videos my videos - OK, all right.
Sometimes I'll delete pix and videos from this area.
When I open windows MEDIA PLAYER, if it goes to my pix, it shows pictures of the pix, HOWEVER,
If there are some pix that were removed, a generic icon instead of the thumbnail of the photo deleted.
Exactly the same thing with videos. I tried to delete these Windows MEDIA PLAYER, however the icons
which is now deleted pix & videos will not disappear.
Anyone know how to get rid of 'em once and for all?
Thank you
Billy
Hi Billy,
Try the following to force Windows Media Player to rebuild the library database.
A handy utility to view all the files on your PC is called Commander free of charge, on the link below, because it displays the files that the operating system normally hides and has a search function.
http://www.SnapFiles.com/PHP/download.php?id=107872&a=7122339&tag=601108&loc=10
It is a zipped file. If you do not have an extraction utility installed, download and install 7-Zip , which can be used to open it so that you can run the Setup program.
Make sure that Windows Media Player and Windows Media Center are closed.
Launch free Commander, double-click users, double-click on 'your username', double-click local settings, double-click Application Data, double-click Microsoft and double-click Media Player. Delete all files with the extension .wmdb - do not delete all the files.
Close the free Commander and open Windows Media Player - it will now start to rebuild the database of library which can take some time, but when it has finished you should see that you already deleted the files are no longer listed here.
Kind regards

Windows Media Player-how do I print a CD label for the audio playlist
Windows media player how
How to print a CD label for the playlist that I burned? I was not able to find a way to do it. I do not painfully a label using MS word. There should be a way to copy it and print it.
You can export the play list to Word with the exporter of Info Media plug-ins, which is part of the WMP9 series Winter Fun Pack 2003: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/downloads/powertoys/wm_winterfun.mspx (do not worry about the label 'WMP9 Series', the plugin still works fine in newer versions).
To export the playlist, select the playlists in the left sidebar of WMP, right-click the playlist and select send to - Media Info exporter .

Windows Media Player does not display a video
I use Windows XP.
No apparent reason my Windows Media Player has stopped playing the video on the .avi files, probably after an update of Windows XP, but I can't say for sure. (Things tend to stop working after these updates of what is called). I've updated for Windows media Player version 11 and up would not display any video, even from DVD, so I rolled back to version 10, but got the same result. Audio files play normally with animated graphics display.
Any ideas?

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,.

Original title: Windows Media Player cannot play back the video DVD. You may need to adjust your Windows display settings. Open display settings in Control Panel, and then try to lower your screen resolution and color quality settings.
I was troubleshooting video playback issues throughout the morning after the reconstruction of a machine with a fresh install of W7 Ultimate, shot a few questions there.
The first and foremost reason I couldn't play THE VIDEOS was due to the ATI Rage video card that was in the machine, proved that this card was not compatible for playback of DVD video on W7. No problem with the system of video files (.avi, .mpg, .mp4, etc.), only reading DVD. Disabling this card and media player running with a standard VGA device allowed me to play regular DVD movies very well.
Another question, I stumbled on was with burned copies of the DVD, it turned out that my system DVD players, (2, one is a HP630E and the other is a typical ATAPI DVD DD internal 8 x 16), have a problem with playing movies engraved on DVD - RW discs. Playing discs DVD-R worked well on this system.
So in your case I try to disable the video device and let the system first use a VGA Standard, if your video plays well then check with the making of video for a updated driver device, saying "you have made any changes" does not mean that the system did not have a bad patch somewhere...
