Published by Marc Liron - Microsoft MVP


Finding a solution for the 0xc00d1199 error

 
 

This is a fairly common Windows player error and hopefully this article will help you resolve the problems you are having.

The 0xc00d199 error code typically occurs because the player does not support the file type.

What causes Error 0xc00d1199

You may find that you are getting this message from Windows Media Player:

0xC00D1199: Cannot play the file

Windows Media Player cannot play the file because:

1) You are trying to play a file that is NOT supported by the player.

2) You are trying to play a file that the player DOES support , but the file was compressed by using a codec that is NOT supported by the Player.

3) You are trying to play one part of a multipart file. Use a newsreader or other program to combine the files, and then try again.

4) The file type is supported, but you are trying to play it in a way that is not supported by the Player. For example, you may have attempted to drag a DVD file with a .vob extension from a DVD to the Windows Media Player icon.
 

Error 0xc00d1199 Resolution Suggestion One:

# Please confirm that you are trying to play a supported file type...

For instance, Windows Media Player will NOT play unsupported file type: .rm .ram etc... These are playable using the RealOne Player.

Music CD Playback (CD audio) .cda

Audio Interchange File Format (AIFF) .aif, .aifc, and .aiff

Error 0xc00d1199 Resolution Suggestion Two:

# If you are attempting to play an MPEG-2 file or a DVD please make sure you have a decoder installed.

To play .mp2v / mpeg-2 files, you must have a software or hardware DVD decoder installed on your computer.

You also require a DVD drive on your computer.... a standard CD drive will not playback DVD's.
