RE: windows media player problems
I and many many others on Win7 and stuck with wmp12 have such and other problems with wmp12. so there is nothing wrong on your end, instead its WMP12. If you go to your fave search engine and look up 'fix wmp12 error' then you will find some good resources acknowledging the inherent wmp12 problems and offer you some suggestions to fix them. However I can tell you to keep your hopes realistic as despite trying out the diff tools and utilities and such that popped up doing the search, they fixed my problem on one of my 2 win7 laptops. WMP12 on the other win7 laptop just refuses to get fixed. So you may be in or out of luck...you need to try out the fixes you find on the web yourself and see if it works for your computer. good luck!

For some reason Windows Media player does not now want to play any streams from the internet. This happened after I tried to play a protected file on it. This is a ripped cd on my hard drive which was ripped in wma lossless in protected mode by mistake. I got the usual message that a license was downloaded now and I could play the file. However, when I closed media player and tried to play the file it froze. After a time a message appeared saying something like a server that could not be found. Since then for some strange reason I am also unable to play streamed content on windows media player from the internet. All unprotected content however works fine. Any advice?

RE: windows media player problems
Prateek Thanx man. All I need to do is to get the protection removed from the wma files. Sound Taxi will do that but then the licenses must be on your machine. Will see what I can find out. -Original Message- From: pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of Dujari, Prateek Sent: 28 March 2012 10:26 PM To: PC Audio Discussion List Subject: RE: windows media player problems I and many many others on Win7 and stuck with wmp12 have such and other problems with wmp12. so there is nothing wrong on your end, instead its WMP12.

Re: windows media player problems
I also had a problem with Media Player 12 last Christmas when I tried to play a movie that apparently had some type of copy protection. I got a message from Media Player that said something to the effect that it could not apply the protection to the output device and suggested that I update my video driver. I switched from JFW to the NVDA screen reader, and the movie played. I think the mirror driver used by JAWS for Windows 13 was interfering with Media Player 12.

RE: windows media player problems
Turn off JAWS. Since thwe mirror driver is on at that point, WMP thinks you are trying to pirate the DVD and it doesn't let it self play it. -Original Message- From: pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of Gary King Sent: Wednesday, March 28, 2012 8:28 PM To: PC Audio Discussion List Subject: Re: windows media player problems I also had a problem with Media Player 12 last Christmas when I tried to play a movie that apparently had some type of copy protection.

Re: windows media player problems
I know that NVDA doesn't use a mirror driver, and that's why I decided to try it with the movie. I thought that Media Player would be happier with that configuration. I do intend to try some other DVD players with that particular movie and JAWS 13 since I want to use the OCR feature on the menu titles. Maybe other players won't complain about the copy protection.
