Viewing JPEGS with WMP-11 & CinePlayer Cal516 12/29/2008 3:58:04 AM Whenever I attempt to view a jpeg file using WMP-11, it launches a configuration process for CinePlayer (CinePlayer 5.0 is already installed and working jim dandy thank you). The configuration process never ends. Pressing "cancel" eventually clears the pop-up and displays the jpeg properly and all other additional views attempted. Once WMP-11 is closed and reopen, it opens the configuration process again at each initial attempt to view a jpeg. WMP 11.0.6001.7000 Vista Home Premium SP-1 (64 Bit) Dell Inspiron 530 (Q9300 Quad Core) w/6 GB RAM Any suggestions would be most appreciated. .... Cal

I wonder if CinePlayer adds a plugin to media player. The settings for that would be under Now Playing - click the small dropdown menu, choose Plug-Ins -> Options... Have a look under each category to see if there's a CinePlayer plugin (possibly Window or Other DSP plugins most likely) - if there is, try disabling that to see what happens. In the vista Control Panel -> Default Programs -> Set your default Programs : WMP doesn't normally have a JPEG setting, but perhaps there's one for CinePlayer which I wouldn't normally expect it to handle JPEGs (it sounds like a movie player) If there is a default setting for CinePlayer to handle JPEG, does it change anything to untick that default program setting ?

Re: Viewing JPEGS with WMP-11 & CinePlayer Cal516 12/30/2008 7:34:13 PM Thanks Neil ... good suggestions both. Unfortunately, there are no associations for CeinPlayer, nothing for WMP looks odd, and JPEGs are correctly associated with Windows Photo Gallery. As you assumed, CeinPlayer settings don't even mention JPEGs. - - - - - "Neil Smith [MVP Digital Media]" wrote: [Quoted Text] > Hmm I've never heard of that but I'll have a stab. > > I wonder if CinePlayer adds a plugin to media player.

Re: Viewing JPEGS with WMP-11 & CinePlayer "zachd [MSFT]" <zachd[ at ]nomailplz.online.microsoft.com> 12/30/2008 9:31:15 PM It sounds like CinePlayer is installing a shared component that's being invoked by the player for JPEG playback. What are the results of WMP's Help:About:Technical Support Information menu tool? Their DLL might show up there... -- Speaking for myself only.
