My DVD
won’t play.

You can put data files on a DVD to store them or transfer them to another
PC. However, data files on a DVD do not play in a DVD player. Rerecord
your files to a file format that can be read by some DVD players.

Codec errors are
occurring when I
play certain files.

Codec is an abbreviation for compressor-decompressor. A codec is
software or hardware used to compress and decompress digital media.

If you get a codec error when playing an audio file, open the file in
Windows Media Player. If you have configured Windows Media Player
to automatically download codecs and the correct codec is available,
then your file should play. You must be connected to the Internet to
download the codec file.

My music files
don’t appear in the
Media Library.

Make sure you use Windows Media Player to add your music files to the
Media Library.

Check that the Windows Media Player setting for Access rights of other
applications is set to No access. It must be set to Read only or Full
access
for your music files to appear. Refer to Windows Media Player
help for more information.
