Hello I'm posting here because no one is answering any post at media player
post page. I have XP SP 2 and have WMP 11. I don't know if my problem
started with the Auto up date from last teusday Kb/954154 or what. I used to
beable to put a DVD disk in the dvd player and WMP 11 would open and play
the dvd movie!! And also, I can't stream live video from web sites now that
use WMP to play back live streaming shows. When I put a DVD movie in to play
it says WMP can't play the disk? I hope some one can tell me how to fix this
problem with my WMP 11?? Please tell me in easy to understand directions.
thank you.

Install K Lite codec pack, it gives you media player classic, if it cant play
your stuff nothing will. Standard will be enough for you. current version 417.

Thanks for the email. Where can I find this K lite codec version 417? I
have never heard of this codec? Is theis K lite version 417 the same thing as
MPEG-2 softwear that I need so i can open and watch DVD movies using WMP 11
or Realplayer 11?? Will it miss up my softwear the way I can watch other
videos like from youtue or from Hulu.com or any videos from like cnn.com and
BBC.com on the web sites??
And like I said my WMP 11 and realplayer 11 and my nero player will pay CD
music great. Will this K lite 417 prevent me from using WMP 11 and
Realplayer 11 the way they are now or will this codec replace all the
softwear I already have to see videos using WMP11 or realplayer 11. ?? Thanks
for any help. I'm new at codec's.

Dang, that's a heck of a lot, at leas in the 4.17 version file I just

I've never had a problem. When you 'right click" on a file it will ask you
what you want to open it with and they all work for me.

curt,
Have you check with the DVD Player software that is presently on your PC, or
that came preinstalled with your PC? And see if there has been any updates
that can be applied. You may also need to check your PC's manufacturer's
website, and see if there have been updates to the OEM version of the DVD
player software that came with your PC.
