Talk:Media Player

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Back in Windows 98, there was a Media Player and Windows Media Player.

In Media Player, there were 2 synthesizer, RipTide, and Yamaha. Changing synthesizers in Media Player was easy. But, I couldn't find a way to change the synthesizer in Windows Media Player. Whatever synthesizer I changed to in Media Player, would be the default for Windows Media Player.

Then, in Windows 2000 and XP, there was no Media Player, only Windows Media Player. And now I can't find a way to change the synthesizers. Then, a new laptop for XP I believe only has 1 synthesizer. Where can I download RipTide and Yamaha again... Neal 00:22, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

Media Player exists in Windows 2000 and XP, but the file name is mplay32.exe and not mplayer.exe. The article previously said that Media Player isn't in Media Center 2005, but it is Windows Media Player 6.4 (mplayer2.exe) that isn't in this edition. I have Media Center 2005 and can still find Media Player. 198.82.59.120 00:53, 23 February 2007 (UTC)
