Music Problem My songs will not play. I cannot hear my music after I turn on my HP Digital Entertainment Center. I cannot add music files to the iTunes or My Music music library by using my remote control. Codec errors are occurring when I play certain files. Possible solution Make sure your songs are in a supported format. Locate the songs on your HP Digital Entertainment Center and determine the format. Some common supported file types are MP3, Unprotected WMA, AAC, WAV, and AIFF. Audio files must be in a supported format to play in iTunes, Windows Media Player, and Media Center. Check the properties for the audio file to determine whether the file is in Protected or Unprotected WMA format. iTunes cannot import or play WMA files that are protected by Windows Media Digital Rights Management (DRM). Windows Media Player cannot play .aac files. Some models and hardware configurations require that you turn on your TV and the HP Digital Entertainment Center to hear your music files. You must open iTunes or Windows Media Player with your keyboard and trackball to add music files to your music library. After you add your music files, you can access them with the remote control in Media Center. To add music files to iTunes music Library, see "Adding Music to the iTunes Library" on page 71. To add music files to Windows Media Player Library, see "Adding Music to My Music Library" on page 79. To open iTunes or Windows Media Player, click Start, choose All Programs, and then click iTunes or Windows Media Player. Codec is an abbreviation for compressor-decompressor. A codec is software or hardware used to compress and decompress digital media. If you get a codec error when playing an audio file, open the file in Windows Media Player. If you have configured Windows Media Player to automatically download codecs and the correct codec is available, then your file should play. You must be connected to the Internet to download the codec file. 190 Microsoft Windows XP Media Center Edition 2005 Reference Guide
