Windows Forum / Windows Media / General Topics / March 2007WMP9 not playing in browser
I use firefox 2.0.0.3 and I can't get wmp9 to work in it. All other media players work. I says in the media player status bar connecting... then locating... then ready and I click play and it all starts over. I went to check my plugins and they are there and firefox says they are working so I'm not at all sure of what to do here. >I use firefox 2.0.0.3 and I can't get wmp9 to work in it.

To be sure, please could you walk through all the steps in this article, and see how you get on ? http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewtopic.php?t=206213 HTH Cheers - Neil ------------------------------------------------ Digital Media MVP : 2004-2007 http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/mvpfaqs Thanks for the article, but I have already been through it. When I click on the broadband test the wmp window comes up but it just says locating... and then ready and then I press play and it does this again. I downloaded all the plugins and put them in the appropriate directories and that did nothing. I even upgraded java for the hell of it and that didn't help either. (didn't think it would, but I am just grasping at straws anyway). > >I use firefox 2.0.0.3 and I can't get wmp9 to work in it. All other media > >players work.

I entered that address into media player and it came up with an error message that said The server redirected the player to an invalid location. It's acting like something is blocking its access to the internet. The proxy setting for media player and ie are set to automatically detect, I have tried this way and with it set to not detect a proxy. I don't think my firewall is the problem either because I don't use windows firewall, and I turned off Black Ice to see if that would help and it did not. So at the moment, I can't stream or view a link in the standalone. > So using the direct URL : In media player (standlone) and File -> Open > URL with this media URL - does it play OK in the desktop player ? [quoted text clipped - 29 lines] > Digital Media MVP : 2004-2007 > http://mvp.support.microsoft.com/mvpfaqs when I open it the way that you suggested, file, open url, paste the link, it doesn't work, but if I click on it in firefox, it brings up media player and plays the first bit of comfortably numb. So going through the file menu it doesn't work, but clicking on it, it does. Weird. anyone? |
