Hi

i have 2 questions
1)
today i tried to open a video , and windows media player starts like a first start! that's very weird because in the past days it started playing music or video

my version is 12.0.7601.18150
like the screenshot


2) can windows media player auto rotate apple s5 videos?
i don't know if windows updated windows media player but i remember that in the past days i was able to auto rotate my s5 videos

WMP setup - LOL I thought it was just me - seemed to happen after the last patch Tuesday, so maybe an update.

I'm not sure if WMP can rotate a video, but VLC can - see snip

1)
does your wmp start with the same window? with the setup (the first run ?)
i did notice windows media player for w8.1 can auto rotate the video

2) do you know the last version for w7? i
thanks

1. on 2 different windows 7 machines, I got the setup screen recently. I just clicked recommended settings and WMP now opens straight to video

2 on my computers, the WMP versions are :
Windows 7 Pro - 12.0.7601.18526
Windows 8.1 Pro - 12.0.9600.17031

can't find any rotate setting in either 7 or 8.1, although if I had a movie that needed rotating (say 90 degs) , I'd use a video editor. I downloaded a clip recently that was flipped horizontal, but I fixed it with After Effects.

thanks a lot!
my w7 64bit version is 12.0.7901.18150 and not 526 and it tells me it's update
