Every blank CDR I insert says "filled" in Windows Media Player...

thi smake sburning impossible. I can put the same exact cdr into another pc and is recognized as blank w/ 79:57 min avaialable! This is very frustrating, does anyone know if this sounds like a software issue (Vista?) or have I lost my mind? I'm using a Satellite A205

First, the wav format is an audio format not a Windows media format. Thus the computer can decide what to do with it. Either iTunes or WMP or any other media player could pick up the file.
Second, wav files are typically uncompressed. Thus you are making your users download a file that is larger than they need to be download if it were to be encoded as MP3 or AAC, both of which are more optimized for web streaming and/or distribution.
Then what you need to look at is a Flash player or if HTML5 is an option, the audio tag, to embed the audio file onto your website.

WEB PAGE says I need Windows media player 11 plugin. Have ver. 12 on computer. Is this not a backward step?

In order to see media on several web pages, it says I need to download plugin Windows media player v. 11. Windows 7 on computer has Windows media player 12. Is this going backwards or or these 2 separate things, i.e. program vs plugin?
Thanks, Sara

The plugin should work with WMP 12 as well.

How do I insert a windows media player video on my webpage?

Hi
I want to insert a video in windows media player on my webpage. (actually I want to insert 3 on the 1 page, but to start with, I'll be happy with 1!)
Dreamweaver says that it doesnt recognise the file type, and the dreamweaver help is pretty bad on this topic.
Any help gratefully received
Many thanks
Bax

Flash Video is the gold standard used on YouTube, FaceBook, MySpace and other video sharing sites now. DW makes it easy to insert Flash Video but tougher for other file types.
In Code View, paste this into your page and change both instances of videofilename.wmv to your own.

Every time Firefox opened

Hi Lindsay.
The [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Windows_Media_Player MozillaZine "Windows Media Player" KB doc] explains installation and troubleshooting in-depth including a link to test the plugin, which should help you solve this problem.
Do note - if your Windows 7 OS is a 64-bit version, make sure that the plugin actually ends up in the Mozilla Firefox plugin folder (default '''C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\plugins\'''). There are reports of the plugin (or actually Firefox) ending up in the wrong folder. 64-bit Windows systems has 2 Program Folder locations - "Program Files" for 64-bit applications, and "Program Files (x86)" for 32-bit applications.
Also note that the Windows Media Player is required to use the plugin - if WMP has been uninstalled from the Windows Control Panel, the plugin will not work.
Please let us know how above works out, and if we can be of further assistance. Detailed feedback is appreciated and helps us to help you better, plus enables us to better help more users with similar problems.

When I put the audio CDs I burned through Windows Media Player into my drive, it says disk is blank.

I am using a Presario CQ61. I have burned audio CDs with Windows Media Player on my computer. Upon completion, when I try to playback the CD in my disk drive for the computer, it asks what I would like to do with the blank disk. However, this same CD plays just fine in my stereo, as well as on my roommates Presario CQ61 disk drive. We have the exact same computer except mine has a webcam and hers doesn't. I don't understand why these disks will play everywhere except on the computer that was used to create the disk! I am so frustrated! I have updated my drivers. I have also disabled and re-enabled the Windows Media Player. I even went as far as restoring my computer to factory settings. What else can I do to fix this problem??

Which brand of discs u used??\
tried any other brand??

I definitely have put this under the wrong catergory but i don't care, I was wondering why everytime i click on a video to play it says: Windows media player has stopped working

Ok, so I made a video with Bandicam, and every time I click on it to play it (it is saved as an MP4), it just says: Windows Media Player has stopped working. Then it gives me two choices: Close the program OR look online for a solution. I REALLY want to
post these videos, but I can't. If anyone could help that would be great!

Hi juderocks14,
Please first take a check with the other Players and see if they could play the MP4 file normally. If it can't be played, which means it might be corrupted. You may ask at the Bandicam side, or save the files again.
If issue insists, take a try with the Troubleshooter (For Windows 7, 8 and 8.1):
Open the Windows Media Player Settings troubleshooter
Fix Windows Media Player video, and other media or library issues
Or you may try to turn Windows Features on or off to reset Windows Media Player:
Turn Windows features on or off (Before turn it on again, please remember to reboot first)
More reference:
What happens if I turn off Windows Media Player?

Why doI have to manually select windows media player every time I try to open a wmv file in an email

If I get an email with a video in it,I have to manually select windows media player in the pop up window. I check the box that says to do this every time for this type of file but it never changes. Next email with a video in it and the box comes up asking what to open the file with. I downloaded the windows media player plugin and that did not help.

To anyone having this problem, did it start happening right after downloading Firefox 4?

Why does windows media player 11 plug in never appear in firefox after I install it, I am trying to play a video that says I have this plug in missing.

I sometimes get a blank video player frame saying I need a plug in. FF plug in finder tells me I must manually install Windows Media Player 11. I have done this many times but the plug in never appears in FF.

Your More system details list show the WMP plugin (np-mswmp), so that should be working.

Can't download plug in for windows media player. Have used download site and it says it worked, but plug in is not showing up on my list of plug ins.

I tried to hear a conference call on a website. Got a message, needed windows media plug in. Checked my plug ins, no windows media. Read tutorial on firefox support. Clicked on download. Got a window that asked for repair or change. Tried repair, then change. Need better directions on how to finish download. Got message download successful, but after closing firefox and reopening, still no plug in for windows media in list of plug ins. Went to site and could not hear conference.
Read support forum. Message about using about:config. Tried this, typed in about: config in start menu, but didn't see anything that looked like I could change to true like message said.
solved by opening internet explorer and going to website and listening to conference call on windows media player. There was a message saying click here if you want to enable media player. Did so, heard conference.
Tried using chrome. Got to hear conference yesterday. Today, there was same message about needing plug in when I tried to follow instructions to get plug in, it was as confusing and useless as firefox. The bottom line is I tried to do everything set forth in firefox's forum suggestions and can't get the windown media plug in to show up in my list of plug ins and can't hear conference calls on firefox.
Chrome did say they were working on getting plug in available at chrome store.
I agree with comments that I was able to go to web sites and hear calls before firefox made an update that removed my windows media plug in. The simple download fix, presumeably from windows, does not work, apparently because firefox can't find the fix. That is not the user's fault, and it looks like windows tried to provide a fix, and firefox won't recognize it.
Bottom line, it is easier to use another browser, than try and get the windows media player plug in installed on firefox. What good is a browser, if you can't hear a call on the website that the browser takes you to? Please make it easy to install the windows media plug in on firefox. Thank you..

Firefox can find plugins in several locations, but Firefox 21 changed the location of the "shared" plugin folder so older installers like the Microsoft Windows Media Plugin no longer drop the DLL file in the correct location.
There apparently are two ways to address this:
(1) Change a Firefox preference so that Firefox checks the old location. Here's how:
(i) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(ii) In the filter box, type or paste '''plugins''' and pause while the list is filtered
(iii) Double-click '''plugins.load_appdir_plugins''' to switch its value from false to true.
This will take effect after you restart Firefox.
(2) Copy the plugins folder to the new location. Here's how on Win 7 64-bit:
Open a Windows Explorer window to:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
Right-click and copy the '''Plugins''' folder
Double-click the '''browser''' folder to open it
Right-click and paste
Right-click the new copy of '''Plugins''' and rename it to '''plugins'''
After restarting Firefox, the plugins in that folder should now be available.
''Edit: I suggest just doing #1.''

Since loading Firefox I can no longer access video replays on Windows Media Player. I get a message saying the material has downloaded but that it can't be played for reasons that are not correct

I have been playing the video replays from Lone Star Park for years with no problem. I loaded Mozilla Firefox and now I can no longer access the replays. I get a message that data downloaded,Windows Media Player opens,but when I try to download, I get a message saying the video cannot be played. This is very important and I am thinking of removing Mozilla!

Hi there
I had the same problem and I found this answer to a similar question to ours, so I copied and pasted it for you
Reset the device by holding down the home button and the sleep/wake button at the same time for approximately 10 seconds. After it resets the message will be gone and you can go to settings > icloud and put in your password.
That seems to be a bug with the password alert where it won't respond correctly sometimes.
Hope this helps

When will the problem of Window Media Player Plug-in for every upgrade be ever resoled? It's getting VERY IRRITATING with every upgrade. Thank you.

With every upgrade, be it 3 or 4 and even the coming 5, many videos will hang that requires the Windows Media Player Firefox Plug-in or the LATEST Adobe Flash Player. Most plug-ins are compatible BUT not these two. Otherwise things will go smoothly.
Thank you.

1. Plugins aren't Mozilla's responsibility. Microsoft is responsible for the WMP plugin, which doesn't look like it is even installed in the Firefox you posted here with. You don't have the latest version of Adobe Flash AFAIK, but that is Adobe's responsibility, not Mozilla's.
2. As far as Firefox version numbering, Firefox 4.o0 hasn't even been released yet and not even a tentative release date has been mentioned for Firefox 5.0.
Quite honestly, WMP isn't usually that big of a problem, but Flash is very problematic - enough that Steve Jobs has it banned from iOS which runs the iPhone, iPad, and deluxe iPod (whatever it's called). HTML5 is probably going to eliminate the need for the Flash Player in a few years; good riddance to bad rubbish, IMO.

Every thing opens up windows media player

I have no idea what I have done. I was down loading pics from a disc. Not sure what I clicked but now all of my desk top icons are all of the windows media player icon and when I go into system restore and click on it it also opens windows media player. help.........................
This question was solved.

Hi,
See if you can run Windows System Restore as follows.
Shut down the PC. Tap away at f8 as you start the PC to enter Windows Recovery Console. Use the arrow keys to select Safe Mode and hit enter. When this has loaded, click the Start Menu, open All Programs, open Accessories, right click the Command Prompt and select 'Run as Administrator'. Type in the following command and hit enter.
rstrui.exe
Hopefully, this will launch System Restore. Pick a restore point at least 24 hours before the file association issue and then proceed with the restore process. When complete, Windows will reboot as normal.
Regards,

Every time I connect and disconnect my iphone/ipad windows vista opens windows media player in the background. It then hogs all of my cpu. Does this happen to anyone else?

I am running iOS 4.3.5 and this has been going on for months now. I need to keep my task manager open to kill the task when I connect and disconnect my iphone or ipad. It hogs all of my cpu, sometimes opening 2 or 3 windows media players.

Sorry, just to confirm, I DID NOT ACTUALLY ANSWER MY OWN QUESTION!
I replied to the previous message from my iphone and I managed to hit the link to "This has answered my question" by accident!
I AM STILL LOOKING FOR A RESOLUTION TO MY ORIGINAL PROBLEM. CAN SOMEONE ALSO NIW TELL ME HOW TO GET RID OF THE GREEN TEXT TGAT SAYS TGAT MY QUESTION IS ANSWERED? That is a pain! It should at least ask you to confirm that your question is actually answered and you didn't hit it by mistake, like I did!

Igoogle is my home page, but when I choose to see the weather forecast I must select my city every time I open mozilla 'cause it won't save it.Plus I have a problem with windows media player, it won't install, error message says internal problem.

I have tried to solve this problem myself, by checking the cookies settings and staff. Everything seems to be ok. But it isn't.

Well, it seems waiting is not my strong suit..! I renamed a javascript file called recovery to sessionstore. This file was in the folder sessionstore-backups I had copied from mozilla 3 days ago, when my tabs were still in place. I replaced the sessionstore in mozilla's default folder with the renamed file and then started mozilla. And the tabs reappeared as they were 3 days ago!
So there goes the tab problem. But again when I started mozilla the window saying "a script has stopped responding" appeared, this time the script being: chrome//browser/contenttabbrowser.xml2542
If someone knows how to fix this and make firefox launch normally, please reply! Thank you
