When I download from Isohunt to Vuse I get windows media player poping stating the following message Windows Media Player cannot play the file. The Player might not support the file type or might not support the codec that was used to compress the file. It does no matter what type of file I am down loading. Windows media player 12 pops with this message and I cant do any downloads from there Has amy got any idears
You may run into troubles when playing such non-supported files with Windows Media Player. That's why you need a codec pack for Windows Media Player.
Where to Download Windows Media Player Codec Pack?
1. CCCP
2. Media Player Codec Pack.
3. XP Codec Pack.
4. K-Lite Codec Pack.
Download K-lite codec pack from the internet and install it on your system. After installing you can play your audio or video file of any format.

Have you tried the file with another player like vlc or power dvd etc? If not try it.
If the problem is codec issue, installing codec pack will definitely fix it. You can install codecs pack like acemega codec pack, klite mega codec pack.
If you need them, download it from here..
Klitemegacodec pack
(Open the page and select anyone from the list to download)
install the program and restart your program, and again play the file which wasn't playable on the Media Player.
Good luck.
Thanks for using FixYa.

Since your question is not so clear, I have to assume myself that pictures and videos saved on your phone can't play on your computer after they are transferred to your computer. The message simply means that the codec installed on your system does not support the media type that you are playing. If you don't have any other player installed on your system you have to try with this one Vlc media Player (click here to download). Download it, and install, now open the downloaded files (video or pic or audio) using this player. Hopefully that should work. Alternatively you can use this player instead of Windows Media Player, but on the other hand, you can still play those files using Windows Media Player. The only thing you need is to install a codec, like Klite megacodec packs, Acemega codec packs, etc.. Click here to download Klite mega codec packs Download, Install and restart your computer, now you'll be able to play any type of media file using your windows media player and other players.
If you have problem, let me know.
Good luck.

It means it is a file type that WMP does not recognize. Download the VLC player here http://www.videolan.org/vlc/ it plays anything.
