Re: No Speakers in WMP10


That sounds like I thought - DirectShow audio playback is broken.
I'd try that #dsound link I tried.

I tried to use mplayer2.exe ( I was not aware that this program exists )
I tried to play some MP3 and wav files ( which can be played with real
player )

I received the following error message : No combination of filters could
be found to render the stream. (Error=80040218)

Does mplayer2.exe function correctly/play back files?
Does

Hi,

I use Windows Media Player 10

When I click : Tools, Options, Devices, Speakers, Properties

I get no AUDIO DEVICE IN USE, there is a gray display, and no choices
available.

Although I have an installed device - Realtek AC97 Audio.

The windows media player does not function properly. I can't even play
MP3 or WAV files. ( I can play these files with other programs such as
real player )

Any suggestions how to fix this problem ?


Thanks

Dan
