to play the song directly with Media Playe

No combination of filters could be found to render the strea


When using XP machines, these songs play fine

Any idea what the problem is

Ok,

Seemed to figure out what is causing this.

The songs in the original 1st two URLs DID NOT have any TAGS (artist, title,
etc) and the last URL DID have tags.

The webmaster added tags to the 1st two URLS and now they play in VISTA

Here is another URL where there are NO TAGS
http://www.jlaforums.com/music_page.php?song_id=1967

and the song DOES NOT play in Vista just as the others didn't before tags
were added

As it stands right now Windows Vista WILL NOT play embedded content in an
embedded Windows Media player if the content DOES NOT have any tags.



So the question is, how can you get Media Player in VISTA to play songs and
videos that are in embedded Windows Media Player on a webpage to play if
they DO NOT have any tags?
