Windows Media Player 11.2410.8.0 reviews

K-lite codec not helping in playing video in WMP11 vista. After the codec installed every video now becomes black. Not good. WMP11 need to have its own codec installer..

I have Windows Vista and windows media player 11.
Sometime it just plays sound, no video.
whenever i try to watch video streaming...
it $uck$ as there is only audio...

i tried to get help...but they help on the the which a person can easily figure out not for the one which is hard to solve and awful.

i just installed wmp11 and nero on my xp, but somehow it got corrupted by some program like the vista transform7&8 and after installing it both media players could play the video but not the sounds,it's totally mute. i have tried troubleshooting it but evry devices in device manager works well, even in the contol panels-audio and sound devices and volume controls and properties and some other options-their all performing gud. its just both the wmp11 and nero could not play audio.

does anybody have an idea resolving this? ty

Perfect solution for codec problem using WMP11.
Select from right column of this page either or both VLC and/or K-lite Codec Pack if you are not getting video. Amazing even WMP11 now works too! I also enjoy the new downloads great video quality as well.

Enjoy!!!

The two downloads to play all media on your computer rather ipod !! or any other format

.1 DOSSIP a file converter that makes it possible to sync your ipod or any other portable device to wmp11 and IT ACTULLY PLAYS THE FILE BE WARNED NO VID AND THERE IS A PRICE $$$$$$$$$ TO BE PAID TRY THE 30 DAYS FOR FREE WORTH EVRY PENNY

.2 VLC this media play all acctually makes it possible to play all your vid you just got on your for the first time
P>S> Bit Commet is the only FILE SHARE SERVER FOR FREE THATS WORTH THE SPACE

You Guys Need A New PC Then

I Recently Purchased A New PC, £300.
It runs Vista Super Fast, Much Better Than Xp And 2000.

I Have Dual Core 1.86GHZ And 1024 RAM.
Come On. There Are Systems Out There For £180 That Can Run It Easily As Well.

It's Like An Xbox 360, Wii Or PS3. With The Same Technology They Were Limited, So They Had To Bring Out New consoles For Motion Sensors And HD Graphics.

super yaaaaaaaaaaaaaa several codecs missing on wmp11 on Vista, although I installed the newest version of the DivX Codecer, some files were still being rejected by wmp11.

Now every single file is playable with the K-lite 15 package. Try it! :)

PS, you are not required to uninstall the DivX.Player - your

WMP11 was good just missing alot of the great visuals they has in 10 and you cant get alot of them without buying em....As far as Vista goes, the whole point every1 hates Vista is cause its got many bugs and requires you to spend alot of $$ to upgrade/update your pc and alot of programs are being blocked and crap cause or pirating software. IMO Vista is garbage, hopefully this newer Vienna will be more XP based and friendly. The best Windows by far are #1 2000 and #2 XP

WMP-11 is great if you have the codecs installed.
My WMP-11 Plays M-Peg 1 & 2, MP4, XviD, DivX, AVI.

The only mager codecs you need are
XviD Video Codec - which will also Decode DivX
AC3 Filter - Will fix that problem for all you people who have video but no audio, if it doesnt fix that problem your video file has been converted to a diffrent audio file which WMP-11 will not play.
The Most common Audio Files are Mp3 & AC3.

I am Dual Booting Windows Vista with XP Media Center and i gotta say Vista is Very Fast. all you people that say vista is slow need to upgrade your computers, better processor and more ram, maybe a better HD for larger file transfer.

AND FOR ALL YOU PEOPLE THAT MOAN ABOUT THE QUALITY OF MOVIES OR MP3 SONGS OR DOWNLOADIN CODECS, ALL YOU GOTTA DO IS DOWNLOAD A CONVERTOR AND CHANGE THE FORMAT OF YOUR VIDEO TO WHAT EVER YOUR HAPPY WITH AND THE AUDIO OF YOUR VIDEO TO MP3, IF THE QUALITY OF YOUR SONG SUCKS CHANGE THE PLAYERS SOUND BIT RATE, ITS PROBLY LOW LIKE 96KBPS WHEN IT SHOULD BE MINIMUM OF 128 OR IF YOUR LIKE ME AND WANT PURE QUALITY THEN 192 OR ABOVE. SONGS SHOULD ALSO HAVE A BITRATE OF 128 MINIMUM WHICH IS CD QUALITY.
IF YOU WANNA CHAT BOUT DIFFRENT VIDEO OR AUDIO FORMATS OR VIDEO AND AUDIO CONVERTORS AND DOWNLOADING FULL LENGTH MOVIES FAST OR NEED HELP WITH A FILE FORMAT THEN E-MAIL ME I ALSO HAVE MSN INSTANT MESSAGING,

I had high hopes of Vista. But after using is for 2 weeks now; it is one of the really bad os I have ever used since Windows was given birth. Vista is slower than Windows 2000 and takes a lot of time to even boot up. Since I am inclined to music; the first things I tried is the Windows Media Player. This is one of the worst players I have ever used. So slow and so un-user friendly. The looks are very similar to the old versions and I am completely no no for this. I am now reverting to my old XP Professional. Alternatively instead of corrupting your system with codec's; I would strongly recommend using the latest version of the VLC Player. VLC may not look good; but they are a one stop alternative for all your music and video's issues

windows media player 11 works fine for me for most tasks but i got a little tired of downloading films for 10 hours only to find that wmp 11 didn't support the format so i took the advice from these comments and downloaded VLC MEDIA PLAYER, i have just finished watching the last legion and vlc is great,perfect picture,great sound and best of all it's free.VLC MEDIA PLAYER ******
just 1 more thing,who agrees FLASHGET is very annoying? any download sites anyone knows about would be appreciated. thanks for the VLC recommendation.

I used to defend Microsoft a all cost. Now I became one of the suckers that upgraded to Windows Vista, which equals to: Nothing new, everything slower, less intuitive than XP, things like installing other competing applications is sometimes impossible, and configure Media Player is a joke.
Well... bye Bill, I'm definitely lerning how to talk penguin... ;)

Window media player 11 is a real rubbish application developed by microsoft. doesnt play and support lots of music format . and microsoft is silent on this issue. cheers(******END*********)

Thanks for the info on VLC. It's awesome
