- brightstSalvaged from archive8 Aug 2006, 12:11I have windows Media Player (v9) but the page says I'm missing the necessary plug-in, and when I search for it the search results in nothing available. I know that Microsoft will no longer support Media Player for the mac after version 9, and for some reason filecabinet uses some Windows-only codec for posting their videos (what's wrong with Quicktime?) Tried downloading something called Flip4Mac WMV which is supposed to be a third party upgrade to MediaPlayer, but as per usual with software like this, it doesn't complete the installation process. Macs are so much easier, but in this Windows-centric world it's just not always perfect...
