    Windows Media Player sharing videos?

    I started recently by using windows media player media sharing features and I wanted to share 2 seasons of a TV show from my office to my lap top, I added in, but after 20 minutes they still did not show again. They just take a while to appear here? And if so how long about?

    PS I know that videos can be shared as I already have a video shared between computers.

    Hi Nahtzee,

    You can add videos again and check or on the destination computer, close Windows Media Player and check.

    Step 1: You can check if the types of files to your videos (seasons) are supported by Windows Media Player. See the article below:

    Information on the types of media files that supports Windows Media Player

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/316992

    Step 2: Ensure that the seasons or the videos are available in the follow-up case. For more information on the issue of follow-up and localization, see the link below:

  • How to use Windows media player with the windows Task Scheduler (7)?

    Original title: why it is so difficult... question of windows media player 12

    You want to use Windows media player with windows (7) Task Scheduler.   We have a pc, everything that appears on the screen is also pumped to our community cable channel, normally a slideshow in loop is the show, however, sometimes via a scheduler interrupt the slideshow to play a video (say a video of our last Board of Directors meeting) and to make videos, ideally the slideshow returns.

    Using Microsoft software, in this case, Windows Media Player v12.0.7601.18150, Task Scheduler 1.0, two things must happen.

    1 Task Scheduler launch a video in fullscreen / top of window.

    2. when the video is finished, wmp is closed.

    Well, 1 works fine.  The Task Manager launching wmp in full screen.  And a framework of wmp switches to allow a session of wmp be on top.

    However, a short time after launch wmp cut the screen down to a smaller version.

    And 2. closure of WMP fails to occur.  He remains on the screen waiting for human input.

    Any input appreciated.

    Charlie

    For "cuts WMP down to a smaller version", right click on the video game (during playback) and deselect ' auto Player size to contain video.

    For number 2, define your point of Task Scheduler task for the "end of task after X minutes" and therefore the value of X.  Then it will kill the instance of running Media Player after a large number of minutes.  So, it will absolutely immediately when the video is done playing, but it will be within 60 seconds and will be at least to remove WMP and let your slideshow be visible again.

  • Quality of its poor window media player with vista and windows 7

    Since I bought my first Vista PC three years ago I never liked playing my music with Windows media player. This is because the sound quality is irritating. For some reason, the volume of any song keeps rising and falling when he plays with the media player but the same player sound perfectly with any other player. Note, in this case with windows Vista and when I upgraded to Windows 7 I have always noticed the same problem. Many of my friends who use Windows vista or windows 7 also complained about this problem.
    Does anyone have a solution to this? Because I can't play my songs with windows media player on my pc windows 7 and I had to keep my old windows xp just to play my songs.

    Hello

    It could be mainly mediocre speakers. Check you drivers.

    Control Panel - device - SOUNDS Manager - look for HD Audio Mine said RealTek High Definition Audio

    Make sure you write down the description and model double click top - tab drivers - write version. Now
    Click on update drivers who cannot do anything like MS is far behind the certification of drivers. Then RIGHT
    CLICK above and UNINSTALL - REBOOT - this will rebuild the driver stack.

    1. go to the system manufacturer's website and search for the driver the newest download - SAVE - will click with the button straight on and RUN AS ADMIN
    (This is your rescue.) REBOOT after each installation of driver.

    NOTE: Driver Sound often rollback so check the version after installation and reboot to see if the version you
    installed is there, if not repeat - restart until it is. It may take several tries depending on the recommitments how he
    the fact.

    Then do the same for the site of the manufacturer of the device.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

  • Using Windows Vista and Windows Media Player with Sanyo R227 Internet Radio

    I just bought a Sanyo R227 Internet Radio wireless.  He has no problem using my home network wireless and find the Internet gateway and play Internet radio stations.

    However, it also has the ability to access and attendance of the media playing on shared Music folders.   The installation instructions are very simple, but again, I have to be able to connect.  (Someone else I know has no problem with XP).  Read the fine print, Sanyo said it is checked with Windows 2000 and Windows XP, but there is no mention of Vista.  When I emailed them, they said that they did not support Vista.  However, I found a few articles to say that they tested it with Vista, just no mention of what they did to make it work.  I don't know that Sanyo is not interested in checking out Vista, because Windows 7 is now available.

    I have a Toshiba laptop running Windows Vista Home Premium SP 2 and Windows Media Player Version 11.  Also, I have Symmatic installed Smart Firewall (Norton) and enabled Windows Media Player and Windows Media Player network sharing service. I got Symmatic take possession of my PC and make sure these settings are correct.

    I turned on the multimedia file sharing, file sharing and network discovery.  Because my PC is to use the Norton Firewall, Windows Firewall is disabled.  The network type is Public.  Privacy requires the Windows Firewall, which confuses the Norton Firewall.

    When I scan to PC on the webradio of Sanyo R227, he never finds my laptop.  I'll try to turn off the Norton Firewall and see what happens, but I don't think that's the problem.

    Anyone out there have experience with this device, media player and Vista?

    Turn off the Norton Firewall and it worked.  Now I have to talk to Symantec and find a way to make it work with the firewall turned on.

  • Open Firefox Windows Media Player for video files

    I need to make Firefox to open the actual Windows Media Player application (not a plugin, the window real app) when clicking on video links, for example, WMV. These file types are already associated in Windows Explorer with WMPlayer, but this has no effect on Firefox.

    What happens now is that, after you have clicked on a video, I get a screen black with yellow icon of VLC Player (VideoLAN VLC installed on my PC) in the Center and no video. I don't want to launch VLC or internal plug-ins.

    You can change the type of application opens for each kind of type in Firefox options.

    To resolve the problem, try to disconnect and reset. See your device manual for specific instructions on performing this procedure.

    My Kodak Zi8 video camera to use it. MOV format which do not play with the application Windows Media.  Does anyone know if there is an available Windows Update to resolve this problem?  I know that there are tools to convert the MOV format as AV1, but it's a bit complicated to do.  Y at - it a simple way to get the MOV file to play with Windows Media.  ITunes does not offer the features I want, for example to make a film of my video files.

    MOV files are QUICKTIME from APPLE files and can be played in Windows Media Player without conversion.  You will need to find a converter to convert Quicktime to WMV files, if you don't like the AVI format. Bob Larson Access MVP

  • Windows Media Player 12 - Video DVD plays but the images are not displayed

    I have a DVD that we created with Adobe Encore.  It has a mixture of video and still images to a timeline.  I play this back on a new computer Windows 7 with Windows Media Player 12.  The DVD plays back fine until it reaches the fixed image on the timeline.  At that time the reading shows just the last frame of the video to the video portion.  The audio continues, but it does not show the image.  We tried multiple image formats, and nothing seems to work (.jpg, .tiff, .psd).  The video is very good reading but with CyberLink DVD player and on a standard TV/DVD player.
