Media player and processor time

I have several computers..when they are running slow I go to task man. and find windows media player is taking my processor time and i'm not using it..this is happening with windows7 and windows8.i can halt rutine system speeds up..then wmp restarts in task..why
is wmp doing anything when I am not using..what can be do to halt the process..the name of the file is wmpnetwk.exe
this file never stops in the processing window..cllifton

Hi，
wmpnetwk.exe is a component of Windows Media Player that used to share media between differnet devices.
It might happen when you share large media files to other devices while the connection is slow, or your PC is trying to look for another device while it is not exist and it insist looking for it or just some media files are corrupted during the sharing process.
So you can turn off the media streaming or disable Windows Media Player Netwprk Sharing in services (run "services.msc", scroll down to this service, set it to disabled), check the result again.
Check if you have some corrupted files exist the media library.

  • Safari, Windows Media Player, and Proxy Servers

    I'm trying to watch streaming video of comedy central's Daily Show but its not working. I hit play and I get "-19422" in the play bar. I can't find anything about this anywhere online. I used to be able to do play these videos on my old computer but have had no success. It has to be in Windows Media Player format. I have Windows Media Player and have streamed from other sites. The only thing I have found is that the comedy central page requires a proxy to view streamng video. I have contacted my ISP and they say no such proxy is needed and I should be able to view the page. Am I suppose to guess on the proxy server? The comedy central site says it supports safari and apple computers but it doesn't seem like it. Does anyone else have this problem? Does anyone have any ieas for solving this problem?
    PS- This is what comedy central says.... Also my ISP is Time Warner Cable's RoadRunner
    "If you are on a Mac, make sure your Player is set to only use the proxy, and disable TCP or UDP checking as this will cause timeouts.
    If you choose the Use proxy option and do not know the proxy server name or port number you should use, contact your Internet service provider or network administrator. "

    Hi,
    The videos work fine for me with Safari 2.0.2 and OS X 10.4.3. The section of the help file you quoted appears to be referring to a corporate firewall setup rather than a typical home setup - you shouldn't need to change any of the defaults for Windows Media Player.
    A Google search for that error code you received mentions Flip4Mac in a couple of places - do you have that installed?
    If so, try disabling it to see if that is the cause of your issues.

    I have imported a WMA-file in Audio-1 track of PE – still no sound to hear. But I can see the sound in the track. (Like in my video-clip) Therefore I also think it is a setting in PE. Will you be so kind to tell me where I have to look? Because I am no expert. Or is it possible that I have to activate anything in PE? It is first time that I will work with PE 9.
    Further information: The original sound of the Mini-DVD is 5:1 surround. After first problem I have changed Nero to export in Stereo, but this did not solve the problem.
    Thanks and regards

  • Want to download information but tries to do it in media player and says not possible, want to change setting but how???

    When I try to read an internet document in PDF or another format it tries to read it in Media Player and then says it's not possible. This means I cannot access information I need. I looked at every Menu I can, including Help and cannot change this setting. Please help me, I've obviously inadvertently chosen this option and now can't unchoose it. Please help me, it's very frustrating!!

    Thank you. Actually I stumbled across that solution myself last night, really not having a clue but browsing through all the drop down menus and did what you said. The only option that seems to work is if I use Internet Explorer. Haven't downloaded any documents yet, but hopefully it will work next time.

  • Windows Media Player and OS X - No sound

    Hi,
    I am running OS 10.4.3 on an iMac 20" 1.8. I have the latest version (9) of Windows Media Player and have been using it fine for the last while for times that I can't use anything else. Suddenly, last week it would not play audio on any of the video clips I have. When I launch a WMV file, the player gives me the message:
    "This file may not play correctly because it was compressed with a codec that is not supported".
    These are the same files that played fine last week, and still play fine on my MacMini. I have deleted WMP and reinstalled it. I have deleted all preference files that I could find and the WMP codec file in the Library/internet plugin folders, and re-istalled again. No luck. I keep getting the message and the file plays with no audio.
    Any suggestions from some of you wise Mac users out there?
    Thanks,
    Tyler

    This should fix the problem:

    What you can do is to go to music player then click options and then exit...
    hope this helps.

  • Safari opens with a pop-up 'update media player' and starts to download it.

    Mid 2010 iMac 8Gb memory. OSX 10.9.5.
    Each time I open Safari a pop-up appears telling me to update the media player and asks me to click OK. the progress bar shows it is trying to download it from kgezz.easyddl.hairdreer.xyz. I quit Safari asap. General info from searches (in Firefox!) shows media player updates are used to put Trojans or other malicious control software in place.
    What is the best course to take? I feel I should remove Safari and all files associated with it so it can be reinstalled but CleanMyMac2 doesn't list Safari in the programmes that can be removed completely and I'm aware just dragging the app to Trash doesn't remove all associated files, which may be causing this problem.

    1.Quit Safari.
       Relaunch Safari holding the shift key down.
    2. Delete Cookies
        Safari > Preferences > Privacy > Cookies and other website data:
        Click “Remove All Website Data”.
    3. Safari > Preferences > Extensions
        Turn off Extensions if any and launch Safari again to test.
        Turn on those one by one and test.

  • Apple TV as a media player and karaoke

    I am thinking to get one as my media player and karaoke, can I switch audio from stereo to left or right mono? What format does it play? Quicktime only? Thanks

    Here are the specs you asked for...
    http://www.apple.com/appletv/specs.html
    As far as playing only the left or right, you'll have to have your audio system or TV take care of that balance, assuming you don't want to unplug anything.

  • Media Start and End times have changed.

    Hello,
    I have an old project from which I off-lined all footage to save disk space. I only saved the Project files. Now when I open the project to do some changes I naturally have to recapture the original footage. The problem is that some clips have weird media start and end times that don't match the time code on the tapes. Therefor I cannot batch capture them, and the referenced cuts on the timeline reflect these weird time codes as well. Can anyone tell me why this has happened and how I might work around it so I don't loose my edits. Please and thanks!

    anybody have a solution to this yet?
    I opened up an FCP4.5 project into 5.1.4, batch captured some clips, and it changed the Media Start times to 00:00:00;00, and the Media End times then matched the Duration times.
    Anybody know how to prevent this? How about how to repair it?
    In case this matters, or is relevant, when I do a Batch Capture of a clip, it is playing it TWICE in the capture process. No dropped frames along the way, it just plays through it in normal stuttery capture mode, rewinds, plays through again, leaving successful Capture (though with aforementioned Media times problem AND with occasional audio/video out of sync).

  • Playing back Recorded TV Programs using Windows Media Player and only hearing Sound from Front Speakers

    Hi All,
    I have Windows 7 Ultimate 64-Bit Service Pack 1 with Windows Media Player 11 installed.
    When I click on one of my Recorded TV Programs to watch and hear, I can only hear the Sound coming from the Front Speakers.
    When I right-click on the Program and open it up in Real Player Cloud. I can indeed watch the program and hear Clear Sound coming from all 5 Speakers plus the Subwoofer.
    What setting do I change to use Windows Media Player and have sound coming from all 5 Speakers and the Subwoofer?
    Thank you!

    That was WaterFox.

    When I open the recording in Real Player Cloud, installed on my computer, not streaming over the Internet, I hear it correctly played.
    When I use Windows Media Player, nothing can be heard from the Rear Speakers.
    Speakers and Hardware are working fine.

  • Windows Media player and flash player conflicting

    Hello,
    I have a problem with watching streams (television programs)
    on the internet. I think this is caused by conflicting roles of
    windows media player and flash player. When i don't have installed
    flash player i can watch the streams. When i install flash player,
    i see only green and red blocks on the respective screen. I don't
    know where the problem lies. I have installed Windows Media player
    again, (also Flash player) but this hasn't worked. The streams work
    with Mozilla firefox.
    I hope you could really help me,
    Sincerily,
    Tuncie

    Hi Tuncie
    Verify that Windows Media Player is not set as the default
    player for all content in Firefox including Flash.
    Also, please respond with a URL for testing.

    Yes. Use the iTunes command File > Add Folder to Library and point it to the folder where the music is stored. Start with one folder so you can see how it works. iTunes will add whatever is compatible.

    iTunes is only designed to sync Apple devices. However, the songs in your iTunes library can be used for other purposes. Follow the instructions that came with your player.

    How about the Cisco Media Server software, is it still running? Try disabling your computer firewalls as well for further isolation.
