Windows Media Player is just too slow! What is the best free media player out there, specifically for music?

Well, the another thread was completely distorted so I open this thread to see if we can solve this... The problem: - While using the computer the generic USB audio crash "randomly" with a loud sound like PFFFFFF!!! - I'm using a USB genius headset HS-03U and the generic USB drivers from...

Hello, Hello, I am going to purchase a Notebook with Windows 7 Premium pre-installed. The salesman I spoke to said that it doesn't come with the OS Disc or Restoration Discs. The only way I can get the Notebook back up and running if I have problems is if I make my own Restoration Discs (3 -...

I want to be able to control what audio device any of my running programs use, but most applications dont have any option to change audio output device. Is there any way to control this in Windows 7, or with a 3. party program? My practical problem: I want to be able to play video+audio on my...

It happened a week ago and I haven't found a solution. I tried searching here and some other sites for a solution but nothing helped. Basically, when I click the wmplayer exe (both x86 and x64) it just does nothing. If I try playing an associated video/audio file it says: "Server execution...

MP 12 will not play anything, MP3's or Windows Media Video. I even tried to play one of the samples that come with Media player 12 and I still get this error: Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The Player might not support the file type or might not support the codec that was used to...

Ever since I installed the new Windows 7 upgrade, my laptop speakers won't play a thing, ever. Yet if I plug headphones in, I get sound coming out of the headphones. Also, whenever I try and play anything in Windows Media Player, it comes up with a message saying "Windows Media Player...

Hey, I've got tow hard drives, one with an old xp install that contains all the music I have collected over the years. Now I can't seem to play a great deal of the songs in windows 7 in either WMP or Winamp. Now I'd just listened to these songs a week ago on XP. I've taken ownership and have...

Since using the Win7 Beta (and now the RC), I've noticed that "wmplayer.exe" will occasionally run in the background without being explicitly started by the user. This wasn't much of a problem, but I thought it was odd. Since installing the RC, however, WMP often (>50% of the time that I am on...

I have the Windows 7 RC 64-bit installed on my comp, and I have been using WMP12 for a few months now with no issues up until recently.

I was surprised that inspite of having an advanced version of the Windows Media Player, the playback speed increment feature of the previous versions has not been included in the same spirit. Sure you can depress Ctrl+Shift+G but that increases the play speed to a meagre 1.4X. The previous...
