Real Player & Windows Media Player don't play a sound

Hi,
all of a sudden I cannot play Real or WMA streams anymore. I have the official Real player as well as the Microsoft player installed to use this nice widget for radio streams (http://radiotuner.wuersch.net/). It has worked all the time quite well but suddenly it does not give a sound.
When I open a stream directly in one of the programs they start to cache the stream but don't start to play (and yes, the streams exist and work on other PCs ). I have already tried to uninstall and reinstall the players etc. but I could not bring it back to life.
Does somebody has a hint for me what could maybe has been messed up?
Many Thanks for every idea,
Thomas

That application is in the Applications -> Utilities Folder.
Change the popup menu under "Properties for" to Apple logo Built-in Output. And change the Source to Internal Speakers, and format to 44100.0 Hz with the downward pointing triangle next to the Hz rating.

QuickTime player/ Windows Media Player help

I downloaded the WPM for mac and it is installed correctly with StuffIt. My problem is that when I try to open a WMV file, my computer tries to open it with QuickTime and then says that the file type is not recognized by Quicktime. How can I change the settings so that I can view WMV files in WMP?
When I try and play the Windows Media Sample.WMV the computer still tries to use Quicktime.
Thanks in advance!

Right click the wmv file and select get info.
There is an option to select the program you want to us e to open this file type.

How to save Real Player/Windows Media Player Files

After watching a streamed news story (both in RP and WMP), I tried to save the file, but couldn't figure out how to do it. Can it be done?

You will need a third party solution such as Snapz Pro X

Is there a downloader which can transfer video to RealPlayer, Window Media player, etc?

Might someone tell me of a downloader which can transfer videos to Real Player, Windows Media Player and the like?
Thank you,
Leeflea

cor-el, now you are talking to a fool and an idiot when it comes to computers. As I tell people, I'm a R.N. and can take care of the sickest of the sick but when it comes to computers, well, I just don't have it.
I probably wasn't clear. What I'd like to do is, if I see a video, I'd like to easily be able to download it to RealPlayer, Windows Media Player, Winamp or the like but I just don't have the know how to do so.
Might you assist me further, please? I've searched the add-ons on Mozilla and they seem too complicated. I need a 12 y/o kid here to teach me. LOL.

Cannot download Windows Media Player for Mac.....

On this intel-based mac, i cannot seem to download Windows Media Player, or Flip4Mac components for Quicktime...has anyone found a solution for this problem....although i think Quicktime is a really nice media player, Windows Media Player is used much more frequently and i need it to view videos that Quicktime Player cannot open and that are only available in WMA format..please help me!...

OK here's the deal, you can download www.flip4mac.com and load onto your Intel MBP. First thing to do before launching the flip4mac installer is to go to
Applications-->Utilities - Find the application "Installer" and right click- get info and check box "open using rosetta".
Go back to flip4mac installer and launch. It will now allow you to install onto Intel Mac. Previously, you would get an error not allowing you to install on Intel Macs. Should be gone now. Once installed, you can go back and change the installer back to original. Once flip4mac is installed, find the Safari app in the applications folder and right click- get info and select "open using rosetta". All Windows .wmv files will now play within the browser window and not download to your HD. The sacrifice is the hit in speed you'll take while Safari runs in Rosetta mode. But you can toggle on and off as you need.

Apple iPod 7th Generation not seen in Windows Media Player

Windows Media player does not recognise my ipod nano 7th generation. Itunes and my windows 7 home premium does see my ipod. Is there a new driver that I can download without going through a third party? I want to use windows Media player.

Windows Media Player does not work with iPods.

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?

I can't play movie downloads. I've tried opening them with Windows Media Player, i-tunes, and Quick time but they don't work.

I can't play i-tunes downloaded movies. I've tried opening them with Windows Media Player, i-tunes, and quick time. Nothing works.

If after you download the movie, you navigate away and do something else with your Apple TV the content you have downloaded will be overwritten and you'll need to download it again. It's a pain in the neck for many who have slow downloads but it's something that comes with using volatile memory rather than a hard drive for storage.
Perhaps you're not doing this, but I thought it worth mentioning.

Bloomberg Videos don't play (Windows Media Player for Mac installed)

Hi - I tried to watch a video from Bloomberg.com. It did not work even after i installed the Windows Media player. Has anyone resolved this issue, which many users must have given the popularity of the Bloomberg.com site? Thanks.

That program is out of date. Use Flip4Mac with QuickTime Player or your web browser instead.

Playing video in Windows Media Player

Ok I know, I'm the dreaded Windows user in the Apple forum. But I have good questions and as soon as I can afford it I'm getting an Apple laptop.
Why can't I play the videos I downloaded in Windows Media Player 10? I'm pretty sure it's because I don't have a codec to play a .m4v file but where can I get one? Any help?
Thanks all

Bravo!
EDIT: I miread your post. I'll renanswer differently this time.
Why can't I play the videos I downloaded in Windows Media Player 10? I'm pretty sure it's because I don't have a codec to play a .m4v file but where can I get one? Any help?
Because Windows media is competing technology. Since there's no real video "standard", different manufacturers use their own proprietary formats whenever they can.
Depending on the video files you have, you might be able to convert them into some format that can be played on the iPod or in iTunes.
Since I'm not a Windows user, I am not familiar with the format of videos downloaded using WMP.
Try to look for a converter that will put your videos into one of the following formats:
H.264 video: up to 768 Kbps, 320 x 240, 30 frames per sec., Baseline Profile up to Level 1.3 with AAC-LC up to 160 Kbps, 48 Khz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4 and .mov file formats
MPEG-4 video: up to 2.5 mbps, 480 x 480, 30 frames per sec., Simple Profile with AAC-LC up to 160 Kbps, 48 Khz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4 and .mov file formats
If you can get your video into one of the above two formats, it will work just fine on the iPod.
Many conversion utilities have been mentioned in these forums. I believe Videora iPod Converter is popular amongst Windows users. I can't recommend it, since I have no experience with it. I just see it mentioned a lot. Seems users have had mixed results using it.

Problem with "play to device" on windows media player

Hello, I'm having a problem with the play to device feature of windows media player. I am trying to use it to play music files to my T.V. It works fine if i try to play a single file or a small number of files (50 or so), but if I try to play
my entire playlist (346 songs, if it matters)in this way or a large number of random songs, nothing happens. No error messages or freezes either, it's as if i never clicked play. I thought this might be a limitation with the t.v. or my network
(im doing this via wi-fi) but when i tried this using windows explorer instead of windows media player it worked just fine, and this was with all the music on my computer which is about 3000 songs. Therefore, i know this is a problem with windows media
player and not my t.v., network or computer. This is a problem because i don't want to play all my music, just my playlist. Short of making a separate folder with duplicate files in it for each and every playlist i want to play in this manner(which
is not only time consuming and tedious but takes up space on my hard drive) how do i remove this limitation or otherwise get around it? Thanks!
P.S. Out of curiosity, why does this limitation exist and what causes it?

when i tried this using windows explorer instead of windows media player it worked just fine, and this was with all the music on my computer which is about 3000 songs.
Hi,
According to your description,you said that you used windows explorer.Did you share 3000 songs with your TV?
If so,I think this method is different with "play to" feature.
Also,we haven't found any limitation with Windows media player.

HP Pavilion dm4 - Windows 7, 64-bit. Error message: Windows Media Player won't play my DVD

Here is the actual error message. The video card has an updated driver. I can't figure out how to resolve this -
Windows Media Player cannot play this DVD because there is a problem with digital copy protection between your DVD drive, decoder, and video card. Try installing an updated driver for your video card.

Hi,
First of all, if you've recently installed any virtual drive software ( an exmple of this is Daemon Tools ), temporarily uninstall it, restart the notebook and see if this has corrected the error.
If the above doesn't apply, try downloading and installing the free KLite codec pack on the following link.
http://www.filehippo.com/download_klite_codec_pack/
When the installation has completed, restart the notebook and check again.
Let me know.

How to disable autoplay in windows media player, normally play FLAC and watch AVI with two or more audio streams

0x1) is there a way to disable annoying autoplay feature in windows media player: when i play music in "now playing" mode and insert a disc which contains some video WMP stops playing music and asks me to play that disc or starts playing without any questions (e.g. when i insert DVD). in addition when WMP asks before playing it proposes three options: resume playing, go to library and play previous list. choosing "resume playing" you'll not resume the music just played, you'll start playing inserted disc. if you choose "play previous list", it also won't continue the playlist i was just playing, rather a playlist or track before the one i was just playing! very strange behaviour, isn't it?
note that this happends only in "now playing" mode, when library is active everything works fine.
please don't tell to go to control panel and change autoplay settings: it takes no effect. it works when WMP is not started or if WMP is not in "now playing" mode, otherwise WMP ignores that settings and demonstrates his "very intellectual"automatic playing.
0x2) when playing FLAC files windows media player doesn't show progress indicator, it always is positioned at the beginning (or at the place where you've positioned it). if i select multiple FLAC files and click "play with windows media player" it will play only the last file from the selected list.
0x3) when playing AVI files with two or more audio tracks WMP plays only one of them and gives no opportunity to change autio track. in wmp of vista it plays all the audio tracks at the same time (!).
If there is no solution for these problems, please tell me where i can send a feedback about my complaints?

i use K-Lite 5.2 full codec pack. in the k-lite codec tweak tool report i see madFLAC.ax installed. i'll try the Xiph.org filters.

How do I play videos on my new mac that wont show in Quick Time? windows media player

I just got a new imca - switching from a pc. When I receive attachments etc that are not formatted for Quick Time, I can not open and play the video. IS there some other software that I need onmy new Mac that will allow this? Or is there some other configuration to the Mac's current configuration that I should be using?

First read this: Adding additional media format support to Quicktime:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3526
Download and install (or re-install even if you already had them) the latest versions, suitable for your flavor of Mac, of:
RealPlayer SP for Mac from:
http://www.real.com/realplayer/mac
Flip4Mac WMV Player from http://www.telestream.net/flip4mac-wmv/overview.htm (Windows Media Player for the Mac is no longer supported, even by Microsoft)
Perian from http://perian.org/
You should read this support page http://perian.org/#support in case you need to delete older codecs. In Macintosh HD/Library/Quicktime/ delete any files relating to DivX (Perian already has them), particularly any DivX extension to Safari. However it should be noted that Perian is not an internet plugin and will not play DivX files imbedded on a website. For that you will need the DivX Player browser plugin available from http://www.divx.com/en/software/mac/player

Real Player & Windows Media Player don't play a sound
