Hi all,

Is it possible to use Windows XP multimedia player to play some videos (mpg, avi) and musics all at the same time? My current setting will only allow me to open a media player one at a time. If I try to open something else, it would stop whatever your current media is playing and jumps into the new one. This really sucks.

TIA

BTW, This was posted in softwares....but didn't get any reply...:confused:

I dont think you can with the new windows media player, you can with the older version though.

See if you can run multiple instances of mplayer2.exe. It should be in the same directory as the main WMP executable.

Old 6.4 supports multiple instances fine, just check that you want
to open files in other window in MP options.
