Windows media player issues with Live 24

well i've had this card for about 6 months now. took like 3 weeks of fiddling to get it to work the way i want. but i never could get windows media player to work right. if i do get it to work it half works and everything else doesnt...
When i try to play a music file (mp3 or WMA) it says:
"Windows Media Player cannot play the file because there is a problem with your sound device. There might not be a sound device installed on your computer, it might be in use by another program, or it might not be functioning properly."
and yet when i play it on Media Scource (which is very laggy and i am un-impressed!) it works just fine! I have no idea what to do! i've searched on here for what seems like days and have tried everyhtign i found. i've updated drivers, fully uninstalled and reinstalled, made sure several times now that my old on-board (cmeadia 97)sound is disabled. i am at a loss of what to do next!
any help is apreciated!

If you try Creative WDM driver (MME or DS) w/ other software, does those work?
If not, then you need to re-install Creative bundled drivers.
You can test both w/ NI BeatPort Player as for an example (or w/ Winamp, etc. (w/ Winamp, you can also use Kernel Streaming or ASIO output plugin which both gives maybe a bit better output quality)).
How 'bout those windows audio settings (start run.. mmsys.cpl)?

Windows Media Player Issues

I'm creating a DVD with only one video track and one button on one menu. I am using the "Satin Red Cover" template. I am using DSP 4.0.2
When I put the disc into a Windows machine, and play the disc using Windows Media Player, the one button doesn't show up (even when you mouse over where it should be).
Here's the weirdest part - it only happens on some machines. I've tried it out on about 5 PC's and 3 of them worked and two didn't. Some even have the exact same version of WMP.
Help! Please!

I don't know if this will help, but I have seen when DVD + R media is used, that some of those issues with PC tend to go away.
How ever, DVD - R media has the most compadibility between desktop DVD players.

Using windows media player 10 with

can you download a playlist....as a playlist....from windows media player 0 into nomad jukebox zen xtra?

Ok guys,
I called MSI support yesterday, had to repeat the scenario 3-4 times and it took
forever to make the guy understand the whole picture, he kept asking questions
he shouldn't have if he got the whole thing figured out. No strong knowledge in my opinion.
Anyways, I tested my old GF4 with my a7n8x --> Video was fine..
Tested MSI nx6600 on my older mobo (a7v333) --> video was fine..
We obviously figured the problem was not the msi card. the question remained though, why my GF4
was working fine with videos but not the GF6 (on same system, same software..)
I then called Asus support to make sure there was no issues with compatibility between the card
and the mobo..
But here's the thing I didn't know: The Asus guy told me before going any further, to install
the Nvidia Unified drivers for the mobo chipset directly from Nvidia. Guess what? It worked !
Why the hell those chipset drivers were not included with the mobo cd !? go figure..
But anyway, as usual Asus know their product and their guy are hot..
Now, OrzMarine, since your board is an nforce chipset as well, I would go install those
unified drivers from nvidia right away..
Ohh well, In my first post I did not want to hear answer like go to nvidia and install drivers... LOL
Secondly, What about battlefield 2 support...!? Actually one of the main reason I changed my mobo and
got this MSI GF6 card was to be able to play that particular game... Now are you telling me I won't be able to play
the game?? After all the trouble I went to make this system works !?! !?!?
As I stated to the Asus guy yesterday, I should have gone Asus all along, like I always did....
Anyone have more details about Battlefield2 and msi nx6600 tdi 256 compatibility ?
Thanks
Fred

Not able to open Windows Media Player files with Quicktime Pro

Hi,
I have recently downloaded a couple of videos that I am planning to use in FCP. The file extension of the downloaded videos is .asf and I am able to play them with Windows Media Player. However, to use them in FCP I have to convert them into Quicktime format. I have Quicktime Pro version 7.0.4 and I was told that I should be able to open the files in Quicktime therefore automatically converting them into quicktime files. It's not working and I am completely out of options and ideas.
Please help if you ever had that problem.
Thanks in advance

As I understand it M$ is providing additional distribution as a sort of "seal of approval."
Don't forget WMV/WMA is a proprietary codec from M$ and involves licensing. In that sense they're providing resources. Apparently the Flip4Mac folks are actually building it themselves though.
Think of it as being in the construction business and you're required to buy the lumber from only one source but you still have to build the house yourself.
I've just got done downloading the newer version and
I hope for improvements.
It looks like M$ is giving some resources to the
flip4mac creators. Maybe a M$ "plant" all along?

Windows Media player issues on a Pavillion dv6

My windows media player is acting odd. I was ripping a CD and the media player rips all the tracks but the first one. Then it says my media player is no longer responding. When I shut down the computer for the first time as it powered back up It displayed a message about a malfunctioning fan. The message hasn't been displayed again after rebooting and trying to recreate this issue. I just purchased this computer in February from Wal-Mart and my warranty is still valid until next February.

Hi,
Assuming you are running a version of Windows 7, it may be worth trying to reset Windows Media Player as follows.
Click the Start Menu and select Control Panel. Open Programs and Features, Click 'Turn Windows features on or off', open up Media Features and untick Windows Media Player. Click Yes then OK and then restart the notebook.
When Windows has restarted, click the Start Menu and select Control Panel. Open Programs and Features, Click 'Turn Windows features on or off', open up Media Features and tick Windows Media Player. Click Yes then OK and when WMP has finished installing, restart the notebook again.
Regards,
DP-K

After migrating to a retina macbook with mountain lion I can not play windows media player files with flip4mac anymore

After migrating to a retina macbook with mountain lion I can not play windows media player files anymore. I use flip4mac pro 3.0 and quicktime 7.6.6.
The message I receive is: De bewerking kan niet worden voltooid. (OSStatus fout -50). I also have problems with zip files that can not be saved on the desktop anymore while unzipping.

I actually installed Quicktime pro and Flip4Mac Pro again after I bought the Retina Macbook. Today I did it again but still get the same OSStatus error -50. I guess there is some old file that has to be removed. Flip4Mac comes with an uninstaller. Quicktime does not.
I read that his could be something with security that is why I mention the problem with the zip files as well.

No Windows media player sync with N79 via bluetoot...

I've installed the Ovi suite from the N79 package. I'm using vista and windows media player does not recognize my phone. However I have got my phone under the type Portable devices in My computer.
When I connect it using usb cable there are two devices in My computer under Portable devices and the phone is recognized by wmp.
I want to be able to sync songs to the phone wirelessly.
Has anybody else got the same problem with N79?

Hi popen,
Could you please confirm what mode you have selected while connecting your device in USB mode? Do you have any mode called media transfer mode, if yes, try to select your device and then try to sync your device with WMP. If you want to connect your device and sync wirelessly, i am afraid you can't do it using Bluetooth but you can do it by Home Media Server, for that you need equipments for setting your Home Media server with your device and you can then sync your device wirelessly.... as far as i can know, you can't do this using bluetooth....
Experts please reply if it can be done

Windows Media Player plugin with Firefox not listed as suitable for SP3?

I am running XP SP3 and have Windows Media Player 11 installed....when I check my plug-ins in Firefox Microsoft DRM and Windows Media Player Plug-in Dynamic Link Library both show as outdated (9.0.0.3250), however, when I click on 'update' Windows Media Player 11 shows (which I already have) and a Windows Media Player ActiveX control for Firefox, which is not listed as suitable for XP SP3 (only SP2)?
Please advise me. Thank you.

You may also have to delete the addons.sqlite file in addition to deleting pluginreg.dat

Windows Media Player won't play DVDs anymore like it used to.
In Windows 8, WMP does not have the ability to play DVD movies.

You might try reinstalling the Toshiba player.

Cross browser windows media player issues

i have thumbnail galleries that open 72 video clips. too many
clips to embed, too many to create new pages for.
the thumbs link directly to the files (.mpegs and .wmvs).
firefox is great with the mpegs if the user has the right
plug ins, although it opens up .wmvs in a new window which is
frustrating, but there's only about 12 .wmvs out of the 72 videos.
here's my main problem. internet explorer opens all files
nicely in standalone player (no new pages, nice and clean) but
certain files do not download properly and the media player will
only play the first 10 seconds or so. where with firefox it will
completely dl the video before playing in media player. i can fix
this problem in IE ONLY if i call up the video in a blank page BUT
when i do that, firefox opens up an entire new blank page with
every video (wmv and mpeg alike) so the user is bombarded with
blank pages and has to continually hit the back button when using
firefox.
it's like i can't find a happy medium.... what do you guys
recommend?
the design is totally done at this point but i'm willing to
put in more work to find a solution that works.

Encode them all to Flash Video (like YouTube) that way all
your visitor
needs is Flash installed.

Streaming Windows Media Player Issues

So I've searched all of support and to the best of my knowlege i can't find anything.
I did find one thread that said to download Flip4Mac but that will not work for me.
I am currently in my T-Mobile account trying to listen to some playback music on the site.
So each time I want to listen to the 30 second media an error comes up saying:
"This page "T-Mobile - My T-Mobile" has content of MIME type "application/x-mplayer2", but you don't have a plug-in installed for this MIME type. A plug-in should be available on this page:
http://www.microsoft.com/Windows/MediaPlayer"
Now I've gone there and tried to look for several different things.
Each time I open quicktime I set the settings to work for MIME and streaming yet I still get this error.
I just got my mac and I've been a pc user for 6 years so I'm still a noob when it comes to mac things.
Any suggestions or ideas?
Thanks!

Tyler, you might have more luck if you ask in the QuickTime for Mac forum. What works (or doesn't) for QuickTime for Windows will usually be very different.
Good luck.

Blu-ray DVD no longer recognized by HP MediaSmart or Windows Media Player

I have the HP Pavilion Elite HPE 250-f desktop computer. This computer includes a CD/DVD/Blu-ray drive. I bought this computer in 2010, and all these years I have successfully played CDs and DVDs on the computer. Until now, I have not attempted to play a Blu-ray DVD.
A few days ago, I rented the "Divergent" Blu-ray DVD from my public library. The "Divergent" regular DVD was included in the package.
I put the Blu-ray into the CD/DVD/Blu-ray drive. The HP MediaSmart software recognized the Blu-ray, but the software got into an endless "update" loop and did not play the Blu-ray. Microsoft's Windows Media Player also recognized the Blu-ray, but did not play the Blu-ray.
One solution I heard about was to plug an HDMI patch cord into the back of my computer box, with the other end of the HDMI patch cord not plugged into anything. Supposedly, the HP MediaSmart software would play a Blu-ray if the software sensed an HDMI cord. Unfortunately, that did not work.
I then downloaded the Media Player Codec Pack, http://download.cnet.com/Media-Player-Codec-Pack/3000-13632_4-10749065.html Supposedly, this Codec Pack would allow the Windows Media Player to play the Blu-ray. The Codec Pack included the Classic Media Player.
I tried to play the Blu-ray on the current Windows Media Player and the Classic version, with the new codecs installed. But nothing worked. I then used System Restore to get rid of the Media Player Codec Pack. I found out that, in addition to the codecs, I was supposed to use the Slysoft AnyDVD HD software. However, I did not make any more attempts to use the codecs, and I did not download the Slysoft software.
Now, here's where things get weird. Now, the HP MediaSmart software and the current Windows Media Player do not even *recognize* the Blu-ray DVD. They play the regular "Divergent" DVD very well. But they do not even *see* the Blu-ray DVD.
I uninstalled the BDDVDRW CH20L driver, version 6.1.7600.16385 (win7_rtm.090713-1255). I restarted the computer, and a new driver was installed. The new driver's version is 6.1.7601.17514. But the Blu-ray DVD is *still* not being recognized.
Now, I'm hearing that a Blu-ray lens cleaner may be required.
So, what's going on here? Did the codecs in the Codec Pack damage the Blu-ray lens? Please advise.
Thank you for any help you can give me.

Hi, BH. Thanks for your response.
sp60287.exe seems to be for Windows 8. I have Windows 7.
But even if I got a PowerDVD version for Windows 7, I still have the issue of the Blu-ray disc not even being detected. The Blu-ray disc is in the drive, but the software (HP MediaSmart, Windows Media Player) says that there is no disc in the drive. This "no detection" issue began after I installed the codecs in the Codec Pack and tried to make Windows Media Player work with the codecs. Is there an issue with the Blu-ray lens? Or is there an issue with the Blu-ray disc itself?
I notice that the regular "Divergent" DVD has no fingerprints on it, even after I touch it. But the Blu-ray DVD has lots of fingerprints. Does the Blu-ray have some kind of weird surface? Is there some problem with the Blu-ray's surface that is causing the Blu-ray to not even be detected?
Thanks.

Windows Media Player ActiveX not playing image, but WMP stand alone application does. Why?

I use my Windows Media Player v11 with additional codec to play mp4 files (mp4 are not supported by default with WMP 11, so I had to install a codec). It works fine in the stand alone application, but when I use the ActiveX control in NI, it does not use the codec and I get only the sound... no image. I thought the ActiveX was simply an interface to the same core application used by NI and the stand alone media player. And if it is the same core, it should use the same codec. What am I missing?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I have a tip for you. If you download Quicktime 7(QT), you may select the QT activex player(see picture). It plays mp4 and looks better. And QT is free so it should not any problem. Try and see if it do you any good
Besides which, my opinion is that Express VIs Carthage must be destroyed deleted
