Windows 10: win media player

Ripped a DVD in windows media player --put songs in burn list (right column) put a blank DVD in writer/player-- clicked burn-start burn --windows 10 ejects the disk then states to put in disk and windows will automatically start burning process BUT it ejects the disk constantly--NO BURN. Can someone explain?

:)

 

Media Player plays movie on DVD but does not play movie that is on disk (HD).

The Media Player (ver. 12) or Media Center Player plays movie that is on a DVD but does not play the movie on the hard disk.

This is a problem on Win 8.1 pro and Win 10 home.

It works on Win 7.

The movie is not in a library - is this a requirement?

How do I get the Media Player or Media Center to play a movie that is on the hard drive?

 

media player

Using WIN 10 & Media Player. How to get Media Player to start/play automatically after insert CD? Media Player is my default player.

 

Err... doesn't WMP say to insert a blank CD?

 

It probably has to do with Windows 10 no longer having cd or dvd codecs in Windows Media Player or Movies & TV and Groove Music.

 

No CD or DVD codecs? Then how can WMP play CDs and DVDs? It does for me.
And for the OP's question, they have ripped files that they are trying to copy to the DVD. Can't they just write those files to the DVD using File Explorer?

 

Try playing a movie off of a DVD in WMP. The only way it will work is if you were dumbe nough to buy Microsoft's DVD app from the store that sucks or a 3rd party program or codec package that add's the codec. Microsoft stopped adding the codec's in Windows.You need VLC Player, PowerDVD, etc. to be able to do it.

 

To Bree----in my question I state "put in blank dvd" Does that answer your question?

 

Of course a music cd will work. The cd's have the proper codecs on them and Microsoft also had wma codec in WMP, which is it's own. Nothing for dvd's or blu-ray's, though. You must have 3rd party software on your device or it won't work.

 

Yes, you are putting in a DVD when Windows Media Player explicitly asks you to 'Insert a blank CD'. Of course it will be ejected - it's the wrong type of disk.

 

As stated, use a CD-R blank disc and not a DVD disc to burn music. A DVD disc will not play in your set top or car CD player. If the burn fails using an -R disc, throw it away and use a fresh one, as -R discs can only be burned once, whether it is successful or not.
If you continue to have problems with WiMP I suggest using the free CDBurner XP. program. If burning to a DVD you have to choose that in the menu.

 

You can burn music to a DVD, tons of music!

But, you'll only be able to play it in the CD-ROM or a DVD player, (maybe a specialized CD Player)

But, I don't know how you ripped a DVD in WMP!

 

I have not yet seen a music DVD or player for such a disc, after all DVD stands for Digital Video Disc. I rip a music CD [Compact Disc] to my computer a couple of times a week and can burn a music CD from the playlists or create my own. I use DVD-R or DVD+R for storage of .mp3 or .wma or other format music files. ODD/Optical Disc Drives use disc while other drives may use disk, been that way since CDs came out and imprinted on the drives.
