    Windows Media Player freezes when castung to some network receivers


    When casting to some network receivers media player freezes after every song. Others work fine. I've noticed that the digital time counter under "Clear List" doesn't count down when casting to the device it freezes with, but does count down with devices that work correctly. Does anyone know why this happens and is there a solution for it?

    :)

    Deep Freeze, Windows Media Player and MP3 players

    Does anyone have Deep Freeze on their machine and use Windows Media Player to sync files to an MP3 player? I've tried it and continue to get an unknown error. Even when the computer is thawed I receive the same error. Only on computers where Deep Freeze has never been installed is this not a problem. *Bang Head :banghead:

    Thanks for all of your help.
