• What happened to the Windows Media Player toolbar?

  I recently downloaded the Windows 7 RC and all my programs and all that work very well, with a few exceptions, but that is because I get all my programs on another partition and another thing is that I didn't see the option to use the windows media player toolbar. In windows XP and Vista, you can set it so that when minimize you WMP, all control buttons appear in the taskbar. Now on Windows 7, it doesn't happen and I don't see an option to do so. I know that you can set it so that there the samll box and it will always stay on top, but which takes place on my monitor. I liked it much better on the task bar. Nobody knows what happened to the toolbar, or is my version of Win7 Glitching?

  -Windows 7 RC Build 7100.

  The tools for Media Player toolbar has been removed because in Windows 7, you can control the media player using Aero Peak of the taskbar. When your mouse on the icon in the taskbar with multimedia and the WMP player narrowed down to the taskbar, the peak flyout box will appear and you can control the media here.

• Unable to access the Player Windows Media Player mini

  Windows 7 & WMP 12 Mini Player

  I used the mini Player (taskbar) all the time in PX and vista. I was wondering why he was left out of WMP 12 and Win7? I was hoping that if a programmer reads this, you can add it before the release. (PLEASE!)

  Jasqid,
  The preview area when you highlight the WMP in the front to the back and play/pause buttons.

  So far, this is what I personally found it to be a good way to navigate.

  I agree with you, the Windows Media Player toolbar is very useful.
  It may have been infavor removed for a sleeker interface (consider the WMC gadget that you can add to your desktop).
  Whatever, lets see what the future result will, of course, Windows 7 is not yet complete. Rami

• How always show the toolbar of the improvements in the latest version of Windows Media Player?

  I made the switch from XP to Win7 64 bit and I would like to get WMP to behave like the previous version where the playback speed settings were still visible after the opening of WMP. I can't figure out how to activate this visibility option in the latest version. In the current version, I have to open the menu of upgrades, select the toolbar, and then rearrange on the screen to make it visible, and then set the speed.

  Clues on how to solve this problem so that I see the toolbar automatically everytime I open the program? Thank you.

  Hi usp.

  I'm afraid to say that you shouldn't find this option open by default as it was in previous versions of Windows Media Player. And there is no work around to get its default opening because it's by the architecture of the software.
   
  However there is an improvement in the same, instead of the default toolbar that we had previously we an arrow below the now playing tab where you can navigate in the development option.
  Here's how:
  1. start the playback of a file.
  2. click on the arrow on the tab playing, point to enhancements, and then click play speed settings.
  3. move the speed slider play on the speed at which you want to read the content, or click the slow, Normal or fast.
  4. to select speeds between the speeds of game marked, in the enhancements pane, clear the cursor Snap box common speeds.
  5. to hide the settings, click Close in the enhancements pane.

• Satellite Pro C660 - 21 d - Windows Media Player has stopped working

  The icon in the toolbar at the bottom lost the Windows Media Player icon and I can no longer watch the videos. I get a message "Server execution failed". It does not start in the start menu. all I get is a very brief flash of a new window which then disappears.

  The window appears empty but it flashes on and off so fast it is impossible to be sure. I was not adding new programs; only the usual updates Microdsoft. I tried to go back to previous restore points and also activate media functionality and the new in the start menu without result.

  Any ideas as to what past and how can I solve this problem?

  No, the recovery disk install from Toshiba and the image is a package that contains all the system, drivers and additional software. Recovery disk *! = * Windows disk

• Open a URL in Windows Media Player

  Is there a chance to open a url directly from youtube in windows media player?

  Let's go into the details.

  I have the old Matrox rt.x100 video card (full screen on an external monitor only with windows media player + live show video plugin), so if I want to open a livestream of youtube video and play on external monitor through the Matrox card I need wmp.

  Beacause it, is there any chance and the possibility of open url directly in Windows Media Player?

  Any help would be appreciated.

  Thanks in advance,

  Stefan

  I don't disagree that VLC can, but it's obviously research any HTML content on the page, to jump beyond all the toolbars, comments, announcements, links and... then find the video, determine the FLV or a video that is wrapped in the HTML5 or Flash wrapper, then play the open content.

  This will never come to WMP.

• Windows Media Player makes calls of NOR-fast Motion (Revisited)

  About 2 years ago, I posted a message on this forum about a condition where running Windows Media Player increased the rate that my Visual Basic 6 program has been able to contact a PCI-7344 Panel using calls OR-Motion (original post). To summarize the post, my VB program be called functions OR-Motion speed after that the computer is started and simply in the process of running Windows Media Player would allow my program make calls of NOR-faster Motion. I created a program demo, posted and was able to reproduce the situation constantly using several different computers & cards PCI-7344. However, no one at National Instruments could reproduce that; It seems that the calls function always ran fast for them and never ran slowly. I finally gave up and let the issue of dying and said reluctantly, our customers just start WMP to increase the speed of the machine.

  Now, I'm working on rewriting the software to the machine using VB.NET 2008 and Windows 7. My first hope was that the problem had gone with either the new VB, or Windows 7, but that doesn't seem to be the case. When I was with Windows XP, I could get recall for an improvement of the functions running WMP. With Windows 7, I can not get the increased rate even after the execution of WMP.

  Today, I took two new computers identical and loaded Windows XP on Windows 7 and one on the other. I put a new PCI-7344 card in each computer. I then installed version 8.2 of NO-Motion on each. With the exception of Microsoft .NET 3.5, which is necessary for my test VB.NET program, no other software has been installed, do not even Visual Basic. I started on each PC, ran my test program to determine the calls/sec, start Windows Media Player and my test program is represented. Here are the results:

  Test Windows XP & VB 6 program-128/s before launching WMP, 1024 Kbps after the execution of WMP

  Test of Windows XP & VB.NET 2008-128/s before WMP program, 1024 Kbps after WMP

  VB 6-256 calls/s before launching WMP, 256 Kbps calls after execution of WMP and Windows 7 test program

  Windows 7 test program and VB.NET - 256 Kbps calls before you launch WMP, 256 Kbps calls after execution of WMP

  As you can see, WMP has increased the rate of call of function OR-Motion on Windows XP, but has no effect in Windows 7. In addition, it did not matter which version of Visual Basic has been used.

  My first question is: what determines the rate at which he called on a NOR-Motion function? It seems that the maximum is 1024/s, which is consistent with what I saw 2 years ago even on slower computers. I would have thought that would be a faster PC function calls could also be made faster, but appears not to be the case. And is there some significance at 128, 256, and 1024 rates?

  My next question is: someone at - it else noticed faster or slower speeds using NOR-Motion after moving to Windows 7?

  The software that I work on the controls, a machine used on a production floor where the cycle time is critical and even save a fraction of a second can be important. With Windows XP, we have reduced the cycle time of 5 or 6 seconds by running WMP. We would like to start using Windows 7, but we won't be able to if it means cycle slower times on our machines.

  The source code for VB 6 and VB.NET 2008 for the demo program is attached. This is the computer that I used for the test today, but I was also able to reproduce this on computers Dell, LS, Xycom and Allen-Bradley. I also used several different versions of NOR-Motion and WMP with the same results.

  
  

• Document from Windows Media Player AND MS Windows open on the same screen

  Hello.

  I'm doing a very long media (recorded voice) transcript of court recorded on Windows Media Player in a document typed on MS Word (using Windows XP).

  I would like to know if it is possible to have Windows Media Player and my document strikes MS Word open on the SAME screen.  I am currently switch between two programs using my bottom toolbar.  It is extremely time consuming and not very well.  Ideally, I would like to open my Windows Media Player, in a small screen on the right upper side of my MS Word document.  This would allow me to work out of the same screen without having to click will result in my bottom toolbar to switch between these programs.  I'm sure that I explained properly :-).  ANY help, suggestions and advice will be highly appreciated.

  Kind regards

  AJS

  You should be able to do it by opening the two programs, then right click on the taskbar and selecting "Tile Windows vertically".  Just make sure that they are only two open programs.

  This screenshot shows WMP and WordPad, because I do not have Word installed, but it should work exactly the same thing:
