    WMP 10 question

    Since i have been using xp while waiting for my desk to be fixed i have using wmp10 and 1 thing i like about it is: the ability to disable enhanced content in streams!! (spam ads,crap that bogs down your player)

    I dont think you can disable it in 9 im not sure......

    Does anyone know what file controls this function?? (it is k-rad!!)

    I was thinking of swapping the file on my computer and seeing if maybe it would then work on 9 also

    This is what i mean

    Open this in wmp10

    http://www.80sreload.com/high.asx

    When the box comes up asking to allow the "enhanced content" click no...... then load the stream again and click yes and see what i mean!!

    If you dont get prompted you might have to goto tools/options/security and uncheck "Do not prompt me before playing enhanced content...." then load the stream again


    Thanx for any help!!

    Well i found out what key in the reg triggers this

    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\MediaPlayer\Preferences

    DWORD key: "HTMLViewAsk" with a value of 1

    When i put this key into my wmp9 entries it still doesnt prompt me which means there is 1 file that 10 uses that has this in it that 9 doesnt have in its copy........

    wmp.dll OR wmpcore.dll or something and if anyone knows what file it is,it would be awesome!!

    I suppose i could search ALL FILES for a certain word on the XP upstairs and see if it may come up,i dunno............ ("Enhanced" maybe)

    An interesting project!!

    Thumbs up Success

    I finally figured out how to do it in wmp9!!


    When the embedded crap loads in your player click VIEW/GOTO then click 'Copy to CD or Device' .. Wait until that screen loads on your player then click VIEW/GOTO and click "Now playing" again.....

    Now you have the stream WITHOUT ANY EMBEDDED CRAP!!

    I knew i could do it,wmp9 is the best of that series!!


    WMP 9
