Microsoft is sitting on the SDK and hasn't released it yet.   WMP 9 isn't allowing us to read their format anymore.  Maybe Microsoft has a solution.

You installed Media Player 9 And Installed it.

if yuou wish to continue to use MJ8 you must revert back to the last media player version.

MC9 should work with MP9 soon, but also does not right now.

I don't think MJ8 will ever work with MP9 but i could be wrong.

It's out of our control.  Microsoft is not giving up the SDK.  

I wonder why.

Uninstall WMP9 (be careful) or uninstall MJ or wait.
