Plugging in Flash Drive Causes Havoc
« on: January 27, 2004, 06:37:33 pm »

Whenever I plug in my USB flash drive while MC is running, I get a dialog box that says "Please verify player is connected."  I close it and another one pops up.  If I remove the flash drive, MC crashes.

Scott-

P.S.  I'm running the latest beta.

If it isn't WMDM compliant, it may not work with these last few builds.  A web search might tell you.  It means that it should play protected WMA files.

Play?  It's just a removable storage device.  I'm a little out-of-the-loop maybe?

OK, Scott.  I see the problem.  I have a USB drive and I just plugged it in.  MC thinks it's seeing a player.  We'll take a look at it.

Please try going to Tools->Plugin Manager->Handheld->Portable Devices->Configure and deselect "Enable WMDM support" if it is checked and report if the problem goes away.

Thanks,

Steve

King,

I've just got to ask...  isn't it a lot of work making all those incorrect capitalizaitons?  Is there some hidden pattern to the errors?  Like some sort of morse code, maybe?

It is a mental problem, unless I force myself

The next build of MC should resolve this when you have Enable WMDM unchecked.
