Play wma file

Hi,
I am beginner so I have stupid question :(
I would like to play audio file with extension wma. Basic
idea is get path of wma file to swf as parameter. I have seen that
quite easy is play mp3 file. I have wma file so it's little problem
for me. Could I play wma audio file at the flash? Any solution ?
Thanks.

A wma file is a Windows Media Audio file, and is (by default)
loaded into the Windows Media Player. Flash doesn't recognize the
format (or didn't the last time I checked) so you will have to add
code to your page to include the WMP plugin. There is a whole
developer's center on the MSDN site for implementing Windows Media
files.

    Seems it is an upstream problem - see http://bugs.xmms2.xmms.se/view.php?id=2332
    Think I will wait until they get it fixed.

  • Will not play WMA files, please help.....

    I have the latest version of flip 4 mac and the Quicktime 7.4.1. Why can't any of these programs play WMA files?

    What is the codec of the WMA?
    From Wikipedia:
    Microsoft currently endorses the third-party Flip4Mac WMA, a QuickTime component which allows Macintosh users to play WMA files in any player that uses the QuickTime framework.[49] Flip4Mac however does not currently support the Windows Media Audio Voice codec.

  • How do I get iTunes to recognise and play wma files?

    A couple of years ago I loaded all my music onto a Macbook Pro and used iTunes to load it to my iPhone. Now my computer has been stolen and so I have bought a new one with Mavericks. No matter what I do iTunes  won't import and play my wma files. What do I have to do to get iTunes to recognise these files.
    thanks
    jon

    Flip4Mac should be able to do that

  • How to play WMA files encoded with DRM on M

    Hi -
    I downloaded and installed the drivers, firmware and apps recommended by Creative Labs to support transferring wma files with drm to the muvo through the creative media source. However when I attempt to transfer I encounter an "Error transferring files" every time. I can play the files on my laptop (windows 2000 sp4) using the cms player, but I still cannot transfer them to the muvo. Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.
    stpal

    thanks for the quick reply. i should clarify that the files are downloaded (walmart.com) in .wma with drm. strange but i reinstalled the firmware (v.40) and out of the ten files I downloaded i was able to transfer 6 of them using cms or wmp 9.0. the remaining 4 still errored out with the same error. by trial and error i was able to figure out that by playing them locally (which acquires the license) I could then successfully transfer them. thanks for the help.

  • Itunes doen't want to play wma file already on computer

    I just got a mac and copies a folder from my PC to my mac, some of it contains MP3's which itunes recognises places in library and plays, but the wma file it won't do anything with, it wont import, cant drag and drop into itunes and wont play it, only quicktime plays it!! i tunes for windows used to automatically convert those and play without a problem. What should i do??!!

    As you've discovered, the OS X version of iTunes doesn't play or convert wma files; Mac users generally do not use them, as they are a proprietary Microsoft format.
    You can use Switch to convert the wma files on your Mac.

  • N73 ME won't play WMA files

    I've recently downloaded 1 music track as a WMA file and have transferred it to my N73. I updated the music library and it shows as 1 of my tracks but when I go to play it, it jumps to the next track.
    I thought it might've needed to be converted so I tried to do that via Nokia Music Manager but it says it's "either unable to convert this file type or it's already in the correct file format".
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    Is it a protected (DRM, Digital Rights Management) WMA file? Perhaps the N73 ME doesn't support WMA files with DRM?
    Does an unprotected (without DRM) WMA file work?

  • Can't play WMA files transfer by BlackBerry Desktop

    I'm sure I am not the first - but some of my music albums CD's will not play on my BB Torch.
    Some singer play just fine, but when I try to play others I get this message.
    "the media 01 ***** being played is of an unsupported format".
    And it goes through the entire album saying the same thing for each song. The file type is WMA
    I erased them and reload them 4 times and still have the same problem.
    Is there something else to do?

    My apologies!
    When you plug in your BlackBerry® smartphone to your computer, you will be prompted on the screen to enable USB Drive.  Once doing this, the media card will be available in the "My Computer" or "Computer" section of Windows®.  You can then drag and drop media from your computer into the appropriate folder on your media card.
    Thanks.

  • Muvo² FM problem playing .WMA fil

    Hi Creative Users,
    I downloaded a few songs from Soundbuzz but when i tried to play it back on my player, it says protected files and not able to play back the file.
    Does anyone have any idea how to get around this? Thanx in advance.
    Regards,
    Mar

    Hi Jason,
    I am not very sure about that. The thing is this mp3 player belong to a colleague of mine, i just managed to troubleshoot for a while before i decided to post this question in this forum.
    One thing i am sure of is she use the software that is included when she purchased the MuVo, so i presume that is MediaSource (correct me if i am wrong).

  • Nano Plus no longer plays any wma fil

    I've had my Zen Nano Plus for over a year, and during that time it played both MP3 and WMA files with no problem. Now it won't play WMA files. I can transfer them to my player but it just skips those songs. This includes WMA files I downloaded from Limewire and from my CD collection. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    If the WMA files are protected, they need to be transfered via Windows Media Player or Creative's software, otherwise the licenses won't transfer properly and the player won't play them. The Nano Plus does not support subscription music. I don't know anything about Limewire. The default on Windows Media Player is to create WMA files with protection. If you want to make WMA files from your CDs without protection, you need to change the setting in Windows Media Player.

  • I'm trying to extract audio files from my OLYMPUS Digital Voice Recorder VN-6200PC I am getting this error whenever I try to play its file type on my MacBook Pro,"The document "VN622195.WMA" could not be opened. The movie's file format isn't recognized."

    I'm trying to extract audio files from my OLYMPUS Digital Voice Recorder VN-6200PC
    I am getting this error whenever I try to play its file type on my MacBook Pro,"The document “VN622195.WMA” could not be opened. The movie's file format isn't recognized."

    The mac has no native way to read .wma files (these are Windows Media Audio files).  Do a search on the internet for playing wma files on a mac.  You will find several links to solution (one is to use flip4mac).
