I am listening to an MMS stream through Windows Media Player. In compact mode, the title of WMP (and the title in the task bar) keeps animating and it drives me crazy. The animation goes away in full mode. Can you help me stop the title animation?

When I add a backround audio track to the menu page of my Windows DVD maker it plays a continuious loop of about 10 seconds of the song. Is there a way to make it loop the entire song instead. NOTE, I was not talking about the "slideshow" option.

I was able to burn dvd's of my projects on Windows movie maker, but now I can't. The dvd's can play the audio track but the screen is black, (no image). Can anyone help me please?

I bought some months ago a Creative xMod sound card. I've got a laptop with Windows Vista Home Premium installed. I hear some popping and crackling noise only when I watch video with Windows Media Player. VLC is also affected by the same problem, but if I set the video output to "Windows GDI" instead of "DirectX" the noise disappears.

Hi, I'm using vistal ultimate on a cor 2 duo 2.0ghz with 2 gb ram. I'v a music folder that has got about 3.3gb of music files and folders. Whenever I goto that folder to place a new album or song, vista starts the indexing process which slows down the pc. During that time its hard to even rename a song or change its attributes. I wanted to know if its possible to make that indexing thread...

I have spent the better part of an hour trying to reassign several file types to my 3rd party media player programs, and so far the only solution I have found is to manually reassign each file type by hand, which would take a ridiculous amount of time. Windows Media Player 11 does not seem to be uninstallable, furthering this issue. I am extremely tired of having to deal with this horrible...

I do not even know why this is happening, but most of the time I use it, my vista locks up completely and I have to restart. I use Media Player Classic, since that doesn't kill my computer (It doesn't have the replay button =( ) but anyways, the really annoying part is that, sometimes it will kill my Vista and I have to reformat and reinstall, losing a lot of important data files, not to mention...

I have a new HP laptop with Vista Home Premium on it. For about a month after I bought it, all was working fine. Then Media Player stopped opening. I don't know what happened -- I can still open if I right-click and open as an administrator, but I still can't play any music or video files that I click on. The computer just sits there, I get that blue "thinking" ring for a fraction of a...

I am unable to hear a professionally produced dvd on Media Player 11 in Vista; however, Media Player in XP plays audio fine. The file types are Video and Audo _TS. What is preventing Vista from playing the audio in this dvd? This also plays fine on a dvd player and Dell Media Direct. Need a fix for this. Thank you. -- HarrietTheAcelady

Hi, When I open a folder containing many AVI files in windows explorer, it becomes very slow and a grey progress bar appears in the address bar. I can stop this slowness by clicking a red cross that appears at the end of the address bar that cancels whatever it is that vista is doing but I dont want to have to do this every time I open the folder. I have set explorer to "Always show icons,...

I have it setup on the computer, it runs fine as a stand alone. Meaning if I'm content to just run it as a sattelite box and use the standard remote that comes with it, and leave the TV tuner of the computer on channel 3, then everything is fine. But when I had cable, the Media Center remote was able to control everything. I can go through the setup, and Media Center recognizes the box, it'll...
