- MediaPlayer >> Windows Media Player Won't play anythingWindows media player wont play anything at all. It starts up fine if you just
open the player, but if you open it by clicking a file, it errors. The error
reporter is no help at all, and i have reported it about 10 times now with no
help or anything after the report. All of the other media players (winamp,
sonic, real..etc) will only play mp3s but get about the same message when i
try to play vids. I have no clue how to fix this, and it would be one heck of
a pain in the behind to re-install all the stuff i have on this thing,
especially the games (half life 2, 1, and all the other steam-related crap)
with dialup. Plus its a huge pain to download all the updates again. I'm
supposed to be good at all this computer stuff, and managed to fix most of my
other problems, but this one has me stumped. Oh, and re-installing all the
players didnt help either. I think i screwed it up after a rousing game of
garry's mod on dialup lagged so bad i had to restart. Last time i had a game
lag like that i DID have to re-install, but i was hoping to get around it
this time.. Thanks if anyone wants to help..

- Media Center >> ICS problemI have a hub that connects to my modem and has multiple machines connected to
it. I need to enable internect connection sharing (ICS) and every source i go
to for information on how to do it tells me to go to the Network Connections
in the Control Panel and then to the advanced tab in the properties of my
connection. There, i am supposed to check a box that says "Allow other users
to use this internet connection" or something along those lines. However,
when i follow these instructions i find i have no such box. I use Windows XP
Professional Service Pack 2. Is this a problem with my computer or is there
something i missed?

- MediaPlayer >> WMP - just reloads each time I close it downI have recently encountered a problem with Windows Media Player. It will
automatically start and when I close it, it just restarts. This is quite
annoying and is also interferring with all my other programs. I have
struggled to uninstall it and thought I had it (took forever because the
program was constantly running) but it is still there. HELP!

- Media Center >> MCX Radio Issue? Choppy contentI have the Linksys MCX and when I select the radio, all of the channels are
choppy. It seems that the stream pauses 3-5 seconds every 6 seconds.
Playback on the MCE is perfect.
Live TV, recorded TV and pictures play fine without any delay!
Anyone else having the same problem?

- MediaPlayer >> Windows Media codecsHi!
When Microsoft is introducing so many enhancements in the new versions of
Windows Media Player (especially 10 and 11), why does it not include a codec
to play DVDs and .avi files?
It is cumbersome to find codecs from various sites. And also, if there is a
facility in the Player to update, why does that not detect and install the
missing codecs?
This is a frustrating experience.
Shall be grateful for a reply / solution to this.

- Media Center >> XP Media CenterDoes anyone have an answer to my problem? I bought the recomended grafics
card (Microsoft recommended) GForce440 so I could view Media Center on my
Television. Yet when I follow all instructions to the tee it doesn't work. I
can get my desktop to appear on my T.V. but when I turn on MediaCenter it
will only come up on my Computer screen and my T.V. screen is still showing
the desktop...any help would be appreciated since I don't want to renew my
Tivo subscription in december,

- MediaPlayer >> Varying Audio Playback SpeedIn response to Chris, thank you for your replay, but
changing acceleration settings doesn't seem to apply to
audio files. The Microsoft.com site does advertise that
manual control of playback speed is possible by selecting
the View menu, clicking Enhancements and selecting
Playback Speed from the options. I understand that this
only applies to supported file types such
as .wma, .wmv, .mp3, etc. I have tried this on 3 machines
all equipped with WMP9, only to net the same result in
each case - any ideas?

- Media Center >> Dual Tuners in Vista- Running Vista Ultimate x86bit
I've just purchased this: Hauppauge WinTV Nova-TD Dual DVB-T Tuner - Model
1175.
It's connected to my PC via USB, and I've run a TV cable from the outlet on
the wall, through a splitter, and then a cable into each of the two antenna
sockets on the actual USB tuner.
I've gone through the TV set up in MCE and there's nothing wrong with the
channel detection, picture etc, it just hasn't detected the dual tuners so I
don't have its capabilities (obviously - record and watch two channels at the
same time, record and record etc). I've downloaded and installed the vista
drivers for this product.
I was running MCE 2005 on my old machine with a Hauppauge dual tuner card
and it detected the dual tuners fine but I can't remember if i had to do
something.
Any help would be great, thanks a lot.

- Media Center >> Disk Full - Say What?I haven't seen the "Disk Full" error in a while, but it showed itself again
this past weekend. When it shows, pressing the "Live TV" button on the MCE
remote always brings back live TV.
I have MCE 2005 with all the latest auto-updates. The OS disk on this
computer is 60GB with about 70% free. There is a separate 300GB disk for
recorded TV that is always full. Yes, under normal MCE operating conditions,
the Recorded TV disk is ALWAYS FULL!!
I never delete recorded programs, but let MCE "keep until space needed".
Therefore, during normal MCE operation, the recorded programs disk drive will
quickly become full and remain full, until MCE deletes the oldest recorded
programs as needed.
This error message is really stating the wrong thing. Since the Recorded TV
disk is *always full*, it seems to be reporting that MCE is having some sort
of problem deleting recorded programs.
Does anyone know if this seemingly ongoing bug has been addressed in any MCE
updates?
Interestingly, right after dispatching the "Disk Full" message by pressing
"Live TV" on the remote, I went to recorded TV and scrolled down to the
oldest recordings. I noticed that the oldest recording had a "(!)"
(exclamation mark in a circle graphic) with text indicating that recording
would be deleted that same day. It would seem that MCE is getting confused!!
This "Disk Full" error seems to be getting generated by a poorly designed
and/or implemented algorithm for keeping track of free space for recorded TV.
The strange part is that MCE only intermittently produces this error.

MediaPlayer >> burning cd's
All of a sudden, when I try to burn a cd, I get an error message that says:
0xC00D11C9: Cannot copy files to recordable disc
Windows Media Player cannot copy the files to the recordable disc. You may encounter this error message for one of the following reasons:
The CD-R or CD-RW drive is busy. Wait for the drive to complete its current operation, and then try again.
The CD-R or CD-RW drive is not compatible. Verify that the drive is connected properly and that you have installed the latest device drivers, and then try again.
the drive is NOT busy and I dont know my drive wouldnt be compatible all of a sudden. And I cannot find out how to tell if it IS the drive. Can anyone help me?

MediaPlayer >> burning cd's
Windows Media Player uses the system's IMAPI CD burner. The burner isn't
what you most would call reliable. There are a few things you can do to
troubleshoot the IMAPI burner, but none are completely guaranteed to work
all of the time.
These tips can be found at http://tinyurl.com/32zkh. This "should" help
with most of the common error's like 8004020E, 80040227, C00D11AB, C00D117E,
C00D11C9, Etc, Etc.
If the site doesn't help fix the problem then the next thing to try is to
download and install the free Nero Fast Burn Plug-In. (Here:
http://tinyurl.com/2ns8l) This should work, the only problem is it will not
burn DRM'ed WMA's. Such as those purchased from sites like Napster,
MusicNow, Wal-Mart, etc.
In my opinion the "best" thing to do is forget about using WMP to burn CD's
until we get a better burner. Nero 6 Ultra Edition is a great program to
burn CD's along with Roxio's Easy CD Creator or Easy Media Creator 7.
