    Hey i need help.I have Media Player 11 (came with laptop). i know it is nubbish but my media player won't play my video's when i click on them to open just the audio plays and the background is a musical note. I think its recognizing the files as just music but i dunno. I tried a vid that previously worked but now doesn't. I dunno what happened but im getting tired off it because my other media player (acer arcade) wont play bootlegged vids.

    WMP 11 doesn't play DVDs by default. You have to install the proper mpeg2 decoder. I preffer FFDShow, or you can install a codec pack like K-lite.
