• I wonder if anyone is familiar with this type of problem with the help of a Windows Media Player for DVD videos.

  Hello!
  I came across a problem with my dvd on my laptop drive. The program that I use on my laptop is Media player from Windows. And the laptop will recognize the DVD and everything, but when it starts to play, it gives me this message from Windows Media Player: "Windows Media Player cannot play video DVDs. 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. »

  Now I always use the old Windows XP for my laptop, but I can't seem to understand how to adjust the color quality and lower my screen resolution. Does anyone have a little step by step process that I could follow to do this?

  The problem is that Windows XP does not play DVD movies in native mode. You can
  have a DVD player, but it can only read DATA DVD at this time. In the order
  install a DVD codec to read video DVD discs. First we will
  Install this program from Microsoft and run it, and if you have a DVD
  Codec, it will appear in the display window. Download this program from
  here:

  If it shows that you don't have a codec DVD installed, then you can
  buy one on one of the links on this page:

• Windows Media Player shows the library ghost

  I am running Windows 7 64 bit. I deleted everything in my music library, but Windows Media Player shows that I have several albums there. When I try to play songs, WMP says that they aren't there. When I try to delete them, nothing happens.

  Something seems to have gotten corrupted, but I have no idea how to solve this problem.

  You can erase the Media Player library altogether by the removal of the database

  Output Media Player

  Run services.msc and stop the Windows Media Player Network Sharing Service

  In the box start the search menu, enter %LOCALAPPDATA%\Microsoft , and delete the folder Media Player.

  Open Windows Media Player and it will recreate the database from scratch, so you will get the computer search for media files dialogue.

• 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.

• Windows Media Player does not play the Audio CD in Windows XP.

  Original title: Media Player 11

  Out of the blue, my media player has stopped working. I don't think I did something for him, but he started playing an audio CD. I have no error message, it will not play. I have another media player on my computer, which didn't interfere with Media Player 11, but I get an error message that says that it cannot open "" MRL CDSG: / / / D: / ".

  Hello

  1. are you able to play the songs in the Windows Media Player library?

  2. is the specific question on a CD?

  3. What are the types of audio file that do not play?

  Method 1: As happens with another player more, it might be that particular CD is corrupt.

  Try again with another CD and see if that plays.

   

  Method 2: Although most CD using the file system ISO 9660 CD Windows XP can read CD created by other operating systems may use filesystems not supported. The most obvious example is the Mac CD using the HFS file system.

• Windows XP Windows Media Player 11 won't burn Audio CD from Playlist but Windows Media Player 9 burn playlist

  I'm trying to burn an audio cd using a playlist and the Windows Media Player built-in burning capability. I already went through the standard elements, changing CDs, shift etc.  The problem persists.

  When I try to burn an audio cd from a playlist I get the following message "windows media player has encountered a problem when burning the file to disk"

  I uninstalled Windows Media Player 11 and it is reverted to the version 9, version 9, I can burn audio CDs without problem and they play.

  OK, I GOT AN UPDATE, these WMA files are sitting on a shared folder on a server.  Windows media player 9 is able to burn them without a problem. Windows Media Player 11 cannot until I have copy the files to the local disk.

  Until Windows Media Player 11 changes forcing him not to work?

  Hi SupportTech2010,

  Method 1

  Check if the problem persists in mode safe mode with network mode and post back with the details.

  A description of the options to start in Windows XP Mode

  http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/315222

  Method 2

  If the problem does not persist in mode safe mode with networking mode, then it is possible that some third-party programs installed on the computer is causing the problem.

  I suggest that you configure the computer in a clean boot state and check if it helps.

  To help resolve the error and other messages, you can start Windows XP by using a minimal set of drivers and startup programs. This type of boot is known as a "clean boot". A clean boot helps eliminate software conflicts.

  See section to learn more about how to clean boot.

  Reset the computer to start as usual

  When you are finished troubleshooting, follow these steps to reset the computer to start as usual:

  1. Click Start , and then click run.
  2. Type msconfig , and then click OK.
     The System Configuration utility dialog box appears.
  3. Click the general tab, click Normal Startup - load all device drivers and services , and then click OK.
  4. When you are prompted, click restart to restart the computer.

  Method 3

  If the previous step fails, then I suggest that you create a network drive in Windows and check if it helps.

• Windows Media Player not able to synchronize audio files for MP3 player

  Windows Media Player 11 issues

  I updated win xp home edition from sp2 to sp3. Also updated for Windows Media Player 11. WM11, I cannot sync to my mp3 player that I could use this feature in sp2 and the latest version of WM. Sometimes it will play music on the mp3 player, but close WM11 after a period short piece. When WM11 opens, I choose a song and play music for a brief period before an error box appears stating windows media must be closed due to erroer or error DRM Setup utility. Sometimes, it closes when you click on a song without any error message that appears. Updates that I updated to Windows Media. Have not tried burning / ripping any CD or adding new music to the library. Just try to play files of current music and trying to put music on an mp3 player. MP3 player is a simple player RCA 'Pearl '. Nothing complicated. Never had any problems before WM11. Can roll back to WM 9.5 (I think)... but no sync button. WM 10 does not able to download Pack SP3. Don't know what to do. Questions about this on the Microsoft Web site do not meet my windows media problems.

  Hello

  Thanks for the reply. I uninstalled WMP11. Old version had the ability to sync... just had to learn to move into the old version... different screen. I'll go back and try your method.

• Windows Media Player 11, DVD video, not big enough in fullscreen

  During playback of movies DVD with WMP 11 and in full screen, the video does not stretch to the edge of the screen.

  I have a flat screen monitor set to 1600 x 900. When I entered the mode full screen the video becomes a bit larger, but does not fill the edges of the screen. In other players such as InterWinDVD player or video Media Player Classic DVD of the CCCP play full screen completely to the edges of the screen (except for two black borders on the top and bottom do wide screen of culture).

  However in WMP 11 200% is not big enough. I was wondering if it is possible to get the video to play 300 or 400% in size?

  Here's what I mean:
  http://img44.imageshack.us/i/wmp11problems.jpg/

  Notice how the video area (Pink) is not stretched to fit the vertical edges of the screen.

  I really like WMP 11 due to SRS wow effects. Unfortunately, since the upgrade to a monitor flat screen with a resolution of 1600 x 900 WMP 11 the fact that the culture of the video. Other players I use InterWin DVD or the Media Player Classic CCCP do that mean the culture of the video. I am running Windows XP with SP3.

  Hey Helldiver.

  Check if you have the plug-ins installed to support the features of DVDs on your Media Player. Windows Media Player is a complete DVD player when combined with a DVD decoder (MPEG-2 decoder) with features such as full-screen video playback controls, ads chapter DVD and integrated pouch.

  If you are running Windows Vista Home Premium or Windows Vista Ultimate, DVD capabilities are included as part of the operating system. If you are running Windows Vista Home Basic, Windows Vista business, or Windows Vista Enterprise, you can enhance your DVD playback experience by purchasing a pack of decoder DVD or upgrade to a more powerful version of Windows Vista.

  Here is a link to the list of plugins that you can install to get the features of full fledge for you DVD:
