Re: Digital Rights Management with Windows Vista

Dear fellow subscribers:

I am having trouble getting clips to play using Windows Vista with Windows Media Player 11 via the UEFA.com site. I have tried following the FAQ on http://support.uefa.com and also contacted support to no avail. They mention reinstalling Windows Media Player 11, however, this is not possible in Vista as far as I know. I have also tried deleting the DRM folder. Unfortunately, this has not fixed the issue. Finally, the same clips play on my Windows XP Pro machine without any problems. What else could be wrong?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Rajiv
Have you tried the VLC media player? It's free and plays lots of stuff the WMP doesn't play.
YMMV
