Windows Media Player Playback Problem - 2007/02/26 04:22
Here is the problem:
I was using WMP 11, and it would not playback some videos properly (for example, nba.com). The audio would work fine, but the video was low frame rate and jerky, stopping every 5 seconds or so like a glitch. This was NOT a streaming problem.
I came into the store and Sean solved the problem using the Boomers computer by rolling back to WMP 9. Smooth as silk. I did the same on my computer, and problem solved.
However, WMP 9 is not supported by XP and I have been encountering videos that would have a blank screen and only audio. So, I thought I would give WMP 10 a try.
Problem solved on the blank videos. Howver, back to square one on the nba.com problem (jerky playback). This is also true on a wmv file I have on my computer, it was blank with WMP 9, it is jerky with WMP 10 and although smooth with WMP Classic, it has other problems.
My question to you is,, how can I configure WMP 10 so that I don't have any playback problems?
I know it is not a streaming problem, as I changed the buffer to 30 seconds and that madeno difference. Further, the older videos have low demand and always play smoothly using WMP 9. Also, the file on my harddrive is jerky. I am at wits end, all help much appreciated!
Thanks,
Paul
