How to make the Windows Media audio to play in Windows XP SP2?
The files are WAV and AVI . The AVI file properties show that "Audio format"
is "PCM" and "Video compression" is "Cinepak Codec". The WAV file properties show that "Audio format" is "Microsoft ADPCM". WMP playes the files with their audio. "Jim Macklin" wrote in message ... Part of the problem in getting this problem answered is that the subject line would have been more easily understood had it said something like "Audio won't play after SP2, using encyclopedia program" Then the body of the message could have said... I have an encyclopedia program that uses Windows Media Audio files. Since updating to SP2 the player built into the encyclopedia program no longer plays the audio. The program was written in Russia and it is named (insert name and link). The program runs fine on machines that do not have SP2. The files are all on the local hard drive. What changes does SP2 make that will stop a media file from playing and how do I correct the issue. Dmitry is going to make an exception to the DEP security and post back whether that fixed the problem. -- The people think the Constitution protects their rights; But government sees it as an obstacle to be overcome.

How to make the Windows Media audio to play in Windows XP SP2?
The logs might have some error message about the blocking of
the call for the audio to play. I'm just working in the dark trying to think of what is happening in a system that I do not know. Your best help will come from the people who wrote the encyclopedia program. They probably did not start from a blank slate, they probably used some older version of a program or at least bits of older code, updated as needed. They will need to learn the tricks for programming for SP2. There are hundreds of thousands of lines of code, perhaps millions and they all have to work together. To paraphrase an old TV ad for hair shampoo, "Only your programmer knows for sure." Good luck, if I think of anything else useful I'll post back.
