Hi, New to WinMx, have downloaded music and a couple of mp3s won't open with
Media player 10 I get this message 'C00D0BB8: Cannot play the file'. They
play when I open with Real. Do I need to configure media player? If so,
how? Also can someone help me with the link to newsgroup for WinMx! Thanks

Hi, I think you misunderstood, This is the message that I get when I try to
open in WMP.

C00D0BB8: Cannot play the file
Windows Media Player cannot play the file. You might encounter this error
message for the following reason:

a.. You are trying to play an MP3 file that contains compressed ID3
headers. The ID3 header is a portion of the file that stores the song's
album information (for example, the song name, artist name, album name, and
genre). This information is sometimes called a "tag."
To fix the problem, make a copy of the file and then use a non-Microsoft
ID3 tag editing program to remove or reset the file's ID3 headers. After you
remove the ID3 headers, Windows Media Player should be able to play the MP3
file.

Attempting to remove ID3 headers might damage the file and make it
unplayable. Therefore, always make a copy of the file before you edit it.

If this solution does not resolve the problem, the file might be
corrupted.

b.. It doesn't matter as I can open in Real, I was just wondering if there
was a way that WMPlayer would play. I did the above but it still won't
work. I already have WMP as my default player!
