I am no longer able to hear embedded MIDI tunes on
websites. If the website has embedded streaming music I
can hear that--just not MIDIs. For example: I can hear
what is playing at
http://www.ourchurch.com/member/c/callusblessed but I
cannot hear what is supposed to be playing at
http://www.ourchurch.com/view/?pageID=17829 . I gave
those URL's with the hope that someone might be able to
determine what plug-in I am missing--or whatever it is
that is turned off.
I have made sure the File Type is set to WMP for
MIDI files, and I can open and play MIDI files resident
on my pc. I am leary of re-installing WMP9 because I'm
afraid of compounding an exsisting issue not to mention
the waste of time. Strangely, I can hear embedded
background sounds including MIDI's using OE6. When
viewing a webpage, for some strange reason, the
space that should contain a small WMP at the bottom of
the 2nd web page I gave in my example only appears as a
place holder and no sound is heard. I also created a
simple HTM file in NOTEPAD using MIDI's on my pc and have
the same result--no sound in the browser. Only the
appearance of place holders where the player should be.
Is it possible I am missing a necessary plug-in? Is it
possible one of the updates to correct a vulnerability
closed this area of MIDI playback as embedded background
music in IE6? I read about an issue at:
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=819696 Might this be
the culprit?
If after reading this you feel reinstalling WMP is my
only solution (besides reformatting/restoring) please let
me know.
Thank you,
