Yeah, mplayer2.exe doesn't play them back in that circumstance the same way,
since WMP10 steps in the middle of that process.
Like I said last post: not a valid comparison. And like I said previously,
MainConcept is on your system. =)
I'm not sure why people are disregarding me today -- if you don't feel like
trusting my advice, please contact actual support-

, since I only know what I know. =)

Well yes, I can play .mpeg files on my hard drive fine with WMP 10 (as I
noted in my first post above.) But when I click on an .mpeg video on a
website, it chokes. It says "connecting" in the status line and CPU usage
goes up to 100% and I'm toast. I need to use CTRL-ALT-DEL to get control
of
my computer again. If I don't and just close WMP 10, CPU usage stays at
100%
and I get the "Windows Media Event Sink" window shut down. MediaPlayer2
plays
back .mpeg video off my hard drive fine, as well as streaming off a
website
without problem, i.e., it launches and plays the video normally. (BTW -
Quciktime 7 also streams .mpeg video fine too on my system, though it's a
lousy media player compared to WMP10.) So all I'm saying is WMP10 needs
fixin' and was hoping you'd have some suggestions. :-)

Yeah, that's a completely different apples-to-oranges test, really. Can
WMP10 play back the MPEG files fine locally? If so, *that* is the same
'test' as the mplayer2.exe test you tried... =\

Zach - when I use MediaPlayer2, mpg video streams fine. WMP10 still
chokes
on
it. Any ideas?

mcspmpeg.ax is not particularly compatible with Media Player. If
those
files are on your system, WMP is less than likely to work correctly
for
MPEG
playback from the Internet. Again, you would need to contact
MainConcept
or
your "MainConcept redistributor" for a fix/update. If there's
something
WMP
is doing wrong, they can let us/Microsoft know, but as far as I'm
aware
they're aware of this and have some sort of update they can provide
vendors
(based upon my limited interpretation of what I've heard so far from
them/their site).

zach - I'm not sure who you were replying to but I haven't made any
changes
or added any software to my system in over 1 yr when my problems
started.
WMP
was co-existing fine with everything on my system for that time. I
did
see
the mcspmpeg.ax and mcdsmpeg.ax on my system in multiple places and
renamed
them but that didn't help. What does the "regsver32" command do?

some MainConcept software and need to get an update of it...

I use Windows Media Player 10 as my default player when playing
mpeg
files,
etc. when I click on playable audio and video files on the
internet.
Just
a
couple of days ago the player started to hang the internet
connection
when
attempting to play some but not all files. When I go to the
Windows
Task
Manager sure enough wmplayer.exe CPU usage is at 99 percent and I
have
to
kill the task in order to attempt to play another file. As far
as I
know
everything for Media Plays 10 is up-to-date (Vers:
10.00.00.4019).
Windows
Update shows a security update for Windows Media Player 10
(KB911567)
was
installed on 4-13-06. The only other software we've recently
installed
is
Movie Edit Pro 11.
