    Persistant Windows Media Player "error" messages


    A new Win7 Laptop with WMP. When playing mp3 files on the PC there are many repeated messages about shortcuts pointing to various .png files saying the .png files are no longer there, asking delete shortcut yes or no.

    It constantly pops up referencing different .png files

    I have done nothing unusual with the program of music on the PC. What is this message referring to??

    Thanks

    .png s are graphics files. perhaps album cover that you deleted or moved (even tho most covers come as .jpg files)
    Next time check where the shortcut/link points to. It could always be automatically created links that point to your TEMP directory (for example, if you listen to online music)

    on the player options page, check the two boxes, Connect to Internet. and Add remote media files to library when played.

    Hmmm.

    I did move cover art from a folder which had 1500 separate mp3 files. The just cluttered the folder.

Well, the Winamp tagging thing stopped working so I tried to use WMP to tag my music from there. Only problem is now, every time I try to "Find Album Info" in there, it loads a screen with a "Internal Server Error" screen instead of the usual search results.
When I select a playlist, it appears in the main body of WMP 12.0 - and the column "Parental Rating" is NOT displayed. When I start playing it, the main section is blanked and shows "You are currently playing this list. You can edit the list in the Play tab." At the same time, the columns...

It is my impression that, like many others have noted, Windows Media Player 12 is less stable than its' predecessors. I make use of the Play To/media streaming features, so switching back to WMP 11 is not a good choice for me. Even after running the WMP troubleshooter,...
