Mac Forum / Applications / Media Player / June 2008Problems after clearing recent
Hello, I followed the directions at <http://www.maclife.com/article/how_do_i_erase_the_open_recent_menu_from_windows_ media_player_for_mac> to clear out my Open Recent menu - which involves temporarily removing the Info.plist file and then returning it. Since then I'm having a couple problems. Streams are no longer in stereo, I hear only the right channel. The player window opens in a ridiculously huge size, and if I try to move it or re-size it the program becomes unresponsive and quits. The right channel thing is killing me, I can't do my job without it. Using version 9.0.0 (3307). Any suggestions?

Rebooting fixed the second problem, but I'm still only getting right channel audio. There's nothing wrong with the stream itself, it was working fine until I made that change.

How do you fix this ? What you mean by "Trashing the Wndows Media Payer Prefs". How do you do this ? Thx, G > >> Streams are no longer in stereo, I hear only the right channel.

Thanks. > Using version 9.0.0 (3307). Any suggestions? Adam, I can't believe you are still using WMP. Have you given a try to the Flip4Mac WMV codecs for QuickTime instead?? They work tremendously better than WMP itself 99.99% of the case (and they're free), Corentin Signature--- Mac:MS MVP http://www.cortig.net/wordpress/ --- http://www.mvps.org - http://mvp.support.microsoft.com MVPs are not MS employees - Les MVP ne travaillent pas pour MS Remove "NoSpam" to e-mail me - Retirez "NoSpam" pour m'écrire >> Using version 9.0.0 (3307).

I use it for streaming content all the time. > QuickTime Player with Flip4Mac installed won't play the stream I'm using. That's unusual... (and sad then). You might want to report this to the Flip4Mac folks. Is it using an unsupported A/V format??

WMP has been abandonned officially by MS a few yers ago now and they recommend on their own sites that people use the Flip4Mac QuickTime codecs for WMV (free).
