Problem playing .wma files?
I finally got around to setting up some music files in STV last night. I moved some .mp3 files I had made from CD's I own and some .wma files I had purchased and downloaded from MSN & Walmart. The .mp3's worked fine, but the .wma files give an error message and will not play. Can someone help me with what is going on here? Is it a DRM thing? If so is there a fix?

I posted this before and never got any replies so I will try again. I will post a little more information and see if that helps. SageTv will show my downloaded .wma files when I go to the music files section just like it does the .mp3 files I loaded in. It is just that the .wma files return an error when you try to play them and the .mp3 that I made from cd's don't. The .mp3s play fine. It must be a DMR problem with downloaded music? I downloaded the music from another computer in my house and later just copied the files to the HTPC. I own the downloaded music and I would think I should be able to play it on this device or any other that will play the .wma format. Has anyone gotten this to work? How?

I'm pretty sure if it is DRM Sage is not going to play it. You could test this by taking one of your MP3 and using windows media player & encode it into wma. If that plays then you know it is the DRM.
