Have any person anywhere been able to actually look at WMV content with
that? I seem to only remember black screens from my OS 9 days and that's
more than 4 years now.

Well, it works on here (mind you, I'm playing back the sample.wmv file).

Re: OS 9 WMV Player

2004-04-21 Thread Ed Zelinsky
A lot of WMV's play on my Mac with 9.2, but I've noticed that there is 
less success with the newer generation of WMV movies... sound but no 
picture. At work on my G5 with system X.2 they are fast and clean!

Re: OS 9 WMV Player

2004-04-21 Thread Kurt Appling
RE: I honestly dont know what the deal is with the microshaft media 
player,I had it working in os 10.2,I upgraded to 10.3 and it hasnt 
worked right since, I can use it OK with pre-existing WMV 
downloads,but I cannot download WMV's since I upgraded,in fact only 
with I-cab do downloads work,and only is If I disable the latest 
quicktime,I think its a mess that something that did work quit with 
the upgrade,just my opinion, and open to suggestions.
best wishes


There is a 9 version of Windows Media Player
Have any person anywhere been able to actually look at WMV content with
that? I seem to only remember black screens from my OS 9 days and

Ehum, I only wrote  from my OS 9 days part, not your whole reply.
Please make it more clear what the quoted person wrote or not.
I'm glad WMP works for you, Roger. My original point however, was that
freeware like VLC or Mplayer in my experience works better and with more
versions of WMV.
I've seen several live WMVcasts that absolutely did not work with the
latest version of MS WMP under OS X, but looked and worked very nice in
Mplayer (with some artifacts, to be expected from live casts).

And under OS 9, in my experience WMP works very very badly. I don't
remember being able to view anything on a G3 machine, but maybe it works
on a G4. And when was it last updated?
