    The main use of WMP for me, is the bulk renaming of files.
    I like all the files to be named Artist-Album-tracknumber-songtitle.
    renaming all my iTunes downloads would take forever if I had to type each and everyone of them individually, and would be prone to typos due to my fat fingers...

    A week ago I could just add the album to my music folder on the PC, find it in my WMP library, hit "find album info", and as simple as that: WMP renames my files to my preference.

    I guess I will just have to come back here every day and checking if anyone has found a fix...

    Has anyone tried the suggestion of re-booting their modem and/or router to see if that has any affect?

    Modem/router wouldn't be the issue. I have the same error message on both my work and my home computers. Different cities; one cable, one DSL..

    I did try one other thing that was a suggestion in here. I installed the Zune Player software and it worked out great. I think better than what I was getting with WMP.

    Good... I thought I was the only one having this issue with Windows Media Players... have they said what the issue exactly is or how long it would take to resolve it yet?

    Just wanted to add my name to the list of people experiencing this issue. For the record, I'm running Windows 8.1, so it's (obviously) not an OS-specific issue.

    I'm in the same boat


    I'm really lost with this problem also. I can't believe more people aren't talking about the problem. I can't give new downloaded music it proper tags and art. I have tried alot of stuff really seems to me like the problem is at the other end with the fia.meta site itself. Thinking of rolling back to before the last Windows update in early September.. Has anyone tried this?

    Also I have some flac plug ins could that be all the sudden causing a problem?

    Everyone is having this issue, it is not a codec or software problem causing it. It is def a server problem. When/if Microsoft fixes it will it be fixed.

    After 90 minutes of chatting with two borderline-incompetent Microsoft "techs," I finally got them to report this as an issue. They said there was no issue reported when I talked with them. Oh, but first they wanted to charge me $99 to solve this problem using "advanced tools." I really wonder where they find these people.
