Windows media player video settings will not respond !

Hi to everyone !
The video colour quality on w/media player lacks clarity .I have tried to adjust this from the video settings within
the program facility. The slider adjusters always return to zero after I have attempted the adjustment.
Alternately,I have tried to find how to reinstall the program from the recovery disc but have not been able to identify
the program from within the recovery disc.

Thanks for your response.
Contrary to what you indicate,M/s was my first port of call
and as a result they suggested I direct my query to manufacturers web page,ie:Toshiba !
Regardless of the location that my query arrived at,I thought it reasonable
to presume that W/media player was a widly used program and thus another
user might have had a similar problem/experience.

  • Cannot install Windows Media Player 11 plugin. Not even manually

    Since I can't install the Windows Media Player 11 plugin through the plugins section, I tried installing it manually from the link http://port25.technet.com/pages/windows-media-player-firefox-plugin-download.aspx multiple times and it still will not show up in about:plugins. I followed instructions from Firefox and rebooted after the install and still won't show up. I am using Windows 7 64 bit and have the latest version of Firefox. cannot play videos embedded in websites that support windows media streaming.

  • Windows Media Player & Video Streaming

    Hi, there!
    Is it possible to send Video Streaming (using JMF) to
    Windows Media Player? If so, how could I do that???
    Thank You very much!!
    Cesar

    Hi Jupiter,
    Yes, JMF supports streaming media using the public standard RTP and RTSP protocols.
    JMF supports both transmission and reception of media over RTP for a variety of media formats. For a list of the default formats supported, check:
    http://java.sun.com/products/java-media/jmf/2.1.1/support-rtp.html
    It also fully supports RTCP. Besides, JMF implements the "RTP Profile for Audio and Video Conferences with Minamal Control", RTP/AVP.
    The front end GUI application, JMStudio can be used as a standalone application to transmit and receive RTP streams. To implement custom RTP applications using JMF as a framework, check out the RTP samples
    on the solutions page: http://java.sun.com/products/java-media/jmf/2.1.1/solutions/index.html
    OR you can refer this URL.
    http://java.sun.com/products/java-media/jmf/2.1.1/faq-jmf.html#jmf2-rtp-features
    I hope this will help you.

  • 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.

  • Media player plug in will not install in server 2008

    after installing firefox 3.6 in server 2008, not the server 2008 r2 but the original.
    the firefox it self runs great BUT you can not listen to music in any web site using the media player plug in because the plug in refuses to install saying it can not run in server 2008.
    server 2008 is a vista based system and uses many of the same drivers. so why is their no plug in that I can tell it how to install or what to install as and just have it do as it is told to do ?

  • Advice on how to make Windows Media Player play DVD's not the Tosh player

    I do not want to use the pre-installed Toshiba Media Player to play DVD's, I want to use the installed Windows Media Player. I cannot change the default DVD player to WMP in Control Panel as the only options are either Toshiba's or Nero's player.
    WMP can play CD's, MP3's etc but cannot even read any DVD in the drive. Anyone got any advice on how to do change this?
    It;s a Toshiba Satellite Pro C850 with Windows 8 installed

    The free KLite Codec pack which equips the OS including Media Player for DVD decoding, thus all your currently and even most future installed players. http://codecguide.com/
    It comes in varying sizes but even the smallest version enables WMP for DVD's
    After installing KLite, you right click the DVD drive within Windows and select the "Open With" or "Play Disc" menu option and select Windows Media Player.
    You can also just use the Windows Run Box / Search box and enter
    dvdplay
    which activates windows Media Player DVD menus.
    Microsoft hasn't always included DVD playback in Windows and then started offered it as a fee based upgrade for XP and Vista, before finally including DVD playback in Windows 7 in what some Microsoft insiders said was an apology for Vista before removing it again in Windows 8.

  • 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

  • Can't download Windows Media Player-What else will work?

    I get emails with WMV files and I can't open them. Is there a Mac program that will open them or is there a Windows download that will work?

    Flip4Mac is the standard now. Windows Media Player for the Mac has, long ago, been abandoned by Microsoft.

  • Windows media player on macbook pro not displaying colors correctly

    I'm running WMP on Windows on my macbookpro but the colors don't display properly on any video. Other types of video work fine but the windows media format seems to not function properly.
    Any ideas?

    BTW, for future questions, try posting in the QuickTime for Mac forum. You'll be normally more likely to get help there than you will here in the QuickTime for Windows forum.

  • I just downloaded the latest Windows updates, now videos online will not work on Firefox but will on other browsers, anyone else having this problem?

    After downloading the latest Windows updates I found that I could not play videos on YouTube or at other sites. Switching to other browsers I found I could play those same videos now without any problem. So I did a System Restore to determine if the Windows updates had affected video play using Firefox. The restore point was set to the day before the Windows download occurred. After System Restore was completed I could now play videos using the Firefox browser.
    To make sure that the Windows update was the problem, I again downloaded the newest Windows Updates and once again could not play videos on any site using Firefox. System restore was used to again reset my computer to the day before and once again the videos would ow play in the Firefox browser.

    Actually your reply took me in another direction and I found this on the Adobe site:
    The RealPlayer extension for Firefox, Downloading & Recording, has compatibility issues with Flash Player 11.3. If RealPlayer is installed Flash Player content does not appear. YouTube provides an error message when you try to watch a video.
    As a workaround, do the following:
    Start RealPlayer.
    Click the RealPlayer icon in the upper-left corner and select Preferences.
    Select Download & Recording in the left menu and deselect Enable Web Download & Recording for These Installed Browsers option.
    Click OK and restart Mozilla Firefox.
    Once I followed this I could now again play videos in Firefox.
