problem with my windows media player?

Question

I can't burn cd's or rip songs from my windows media player and I don't know why. It gives me this:C00D11C7: Cannot play, burn, or synchronize the file It also says this: The required codec is not available on the codec server. I have done everything it tells me to do to fix the problem and still it doesn't work. Should I unstall it and redownload it?

Answer 1

You might encounter this error message for one of the following reasons:

You are trying to burn (copy) the file to a CD, but you have never played the file on your computer. Play the file, and the Player should try to download the required codec automatically.

The Player is not configured to download codecs automatically. To configure the Player to download codecs automatically, on the Tools menu, click Options, click the Player tab, and then select the Download codecs automatically check box.
Note that you must be logged on as an administrator or a member of the Administrators group to complete this procedure.
The required codec is not available on the codec server.
