No, Windows Media Player does not have support for watching movies in 3D. It primarily focuses on playing audio and video files in various formats but does not have dedicated 3D support. There are other media players available that offer 3D playback capabilities.

The Flash Video file format that supports an audio codec as MP2 in Windows Media Player is the Flash Video 1 codec within the Matroska file format. Macromedia introduced the beta release of this format, which includes the MPEG-1 Audio Layer II audio codec.

I get a frozen screen and a message that says: "Windows Media Player has stopped working."
Then another pop-up message says: "Windows Media Player has stopped working. A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available."
Yet, the frozen window stays open, locked-up, with an hourglass as if in the process of some action.So I manually close the program. This error ONLY occurs when I open in, or switch to the Videos library. The program functions correctly for Videos accessed from Windows Explorer, and even from My Music library.
I am running Windows 7 with all updates installed and my Internet E 9 also frequently shuts down.
Thank you!

Windows Media Player nowadays comes integrated with the operating system and takes advantage and benefits from all the system’s libraries and functionalities and if a DLL or a file that is used by WMP are not working, you will encounter errors not only to this application but to those that are bundled with the operating system. Microsoft released a fix for problems related to WMP and its components. It is way better to use their provided fixing tools than to mess up with files and registry tools.

The slow motion playback is still available in the Windows Media Player application as an Enhancement. You can access it while a video is playing. Right click it and then choose Enhancements > Play Speed Settings. You will then have the possibility to adjust the playback speed.

You can change the interface of Windows Media Player using skins/themes. These packages modify the GUI of the program while retaining the full functionality. Luckily, Microsoft already offers its users the possibility of downloading pre-made skins. Personally, I've used some skins from their page and they look beautiful. Keep in mind that while using skins, some features might not be seen unless activated in the settings options.
Browse to the Skins page and download the package you want. Install it and then you can activate it after the installation is finished.
To switch between skins press ALT while WMP is active, then go to View > Skin Chooser. While a skin is applied and active, press CTRL + 2 and CTRL + 1 to switch between skin and library.

Since Windows Media Player 7, all the next versions have this feature and it resides on the main interface of the software. Also when you insert an Audio CD into CD/DVD-Rom, the autorun menu will have an option titled "Rip music from CD". Clicking that option will autorip your Audio CD to default settings of the software. If you click RIP from the main interface, you have the ability to customize bitrate, output folder, encoding and so on. For all this to happen, you need a compatible Audio encoded CD in a standard format.
There is no need to look for codecs since one pack is all that you need. For example, Combined Community Codecs Pack is the "goto" solution when you need filters to encode or decode files. Access the download page of the application and then save the installation package. Double click to start the installation and configure the things if you know or leave them be as their are.
Restore your PC and Windows Media Player will be able to open many audio and video files.
Note: The pack also contains some video players as well. You can use them to play your files if you find Windows Media Player slow or unresponsive.
