Media player for Windows 7?

Unknown

What are some good media players for Windows 7? (No iTunes 11)

Answer
Hi, For audio there's winamp media player, songbird, media monkey, foobar2000, and so on. Daum potplayer below is made by the same guy who made the famous kmplayer. Links below

For video the best players are VLC media player by videolan, media player classic home cinema, kmplayer, daum potplayer, smplayer, or gom player. My favorite is VLC and daum potplayer. They both play pretty much anything including DVD's with their own codecs. If you set all the settings in daum potplayer to your liking it is the best player.

http://www.videolan.org/vlc/ (Official site of VLC player by videolan. Free and virus free! It will download from sourceforge.) Pay attention while installing, if you don't want files associated with VLC then uncheck that option during setup. If you want after installing you can right click on the video file and choose to play with VLC.

To play DVD with VLC - open VLC - in taskbar at top click on media - then click open disk.

http://www.dvbsupport.net/download/index.php?act=view&id=230 (Daum Potplayer latest stable version. Click on the big blue button to download it. You don't have to install the potplayer live files and you can ignore the directx update message.

After installing open it up and right click on it - in the video tab - set video renderer to overlay mixer for some computers. You may want to change the aspect ratio options also. You can manage file associations - right click - preferences - association tab.

To play a DVD with potplayer - right click on it on the second open tab popout click "open DVD' or on the last tab to open your "CD/DVD" drive

I hope this helps you out. Good luck!

I have no problem burning a DVD that will work on computers, but they do not seem to work in the DVD players on my TV sets. I am good at computers, but in no way a pro. Can someone explain to me how to do this in a way I can understand? I am using Windows 7 on a brand new Dell computer.

Answer
Because most normal DVD player only recognize the standard video DVD, don't recognize the data DVD(directly burn video files on disc), so you have to convert and burn your videos to standard video DVD, i am using rz dvd creator to do this well, it can create/burn standard video DVD from any videos, easy to use, you may have a try, hope it can help you.

What is the best way to run cd/dvd programs off of hard drive?

John

I have a new Windows 7 Ultrabook (no dvd drive) laptop. Just wondering how best to run old programs/games off of the hard drive? I have a external dvd player to transfer the files. Thanks.
Some games (like Madden/Civilization) require you to leave the CD/DVD in the Drive and not run it completely off the CD/DVD Drive.
I mean run it completely off the hard drive.

Answer
It's best to reinstall any applications or games on the new computer instead of copy and pasting the files over. Sometimes that will work but a lot of the time the programs have dependencies installed in other places (such as the registry or a folder with saved data).

To transfer you will need to hook up your old hard drive to a PC and burn the files to a cd or flash drive.

best dvd players for windows 7 image

hollya707

I just got a new windows 7 laptop.I have some Movies that have been taken with the digital camera and the flip video, I tried twice last night to burn them but Every time i did (Using Roxio) It would burn them as data CD, I believe because they would not play on the DVD player. Roxio is not really giving me a choice except for the drag method. Am I doing it wrong or is there another way I could go about this ?

Thanks

Answer

Dilford

i have a ton of blank DVD's and a wmv of the video. How do i burn it to the dvd so i can play it on a dvd player? im running windows 7 64 bit. and the software needs to be FREE.

Answer
Use Windows DVD Maker.

I am using a tool called DVD Creator which lets me burn WMV and all other kinds of videos to DVD easily. Any format you want, it can burn to DVDs. Supports Single and Dual Layer Disc. Easy to use and professional. It lets you burn multiple WMV movies on one DVD disc. And it's fast.

Once you've burnt the DVD, you can watch it on DVD player through TV.

You may give it a try. Check out the step by step guide at:

Melissa S

I have a laptop about five months old, it won't restore from a set point because it says the drive has something corrupt on it, and my cdrom dvd player only worked a couple of times and it stopped. I was thinking about trying the advanced restore option offered that says restore the computer to factory settings, I saved the files I wanted to but will this also wipe off Windows 7 from the computer? I bought it from Walmart if that makes a difference. Thanks!

Answer
If you restore back to factory, it will act like the computer was before you bought it, if it had Windows 7 on it from start, it will again have Windows 7.
