    Hi AndyUK49er,

    I'm using MediaPlayer 10 and it works quite fine.
    Try to play a MP3 in MediaPlayer itself (without MP) if it works?

    rollback mediaplayer 10

    The trick to uninstall Mediaplayer 10 goes as follows. Go in the control panel in the Add/Remove programm section. At the top where it says currently installed programs mark the check box "show updates". By doing so - you then find the media palyer 10 in the list below and you can uninstall it - meaning windows will do an automatic rollback to media player 9.

    I hope this hint helps you. In addition I had problems with the playing of MP3 files, because I had activated the itunes plugin in - if I deactivated this MP works fine for me.

    best wishes

    Hi,

    I have noticed also some distortion on MP3:s when using windows mediaplayer 10. General usage is ok but quality of sound is not. I thought mine loudspeakers were broken, now i realize that i need to test this thing further.

    All ideas are welcome. Perhaps i'll install that iTunes on mine htpc.
