Thread: Installed Codec Greyed Out...Not Recognized?

  1. #1

    Installed Codec Greyed Out...Not Recognized?

    I used the CD Ripper to rip a CD into FLAC format.

    I want a copy of this CD in WMA Lossless format.

    When I open up the Converter and select my files, it gives me the usual conversion dialog box. The "Converting To:" dropdown contains Windows Media Audio 10, but the option is greyed out.

    If I select it, I get a notice that "The encoder 'Windows Media Audio 10' has to be downloaded and installed before it can be used.....Download from the Internet now?"

    However, if I run "Configure dbPoweramp" it lists Windows Media Audio 10 as an encoder that is installed already...and the latest version.

    OK...so I reinstalled the Windows Media Audio 10 codec (which uninstalls the current version), but that doesn't solve the problem.

    Can anyone help me figure out what's wrong?

    Thanks.

    Thanks for the suggestion, Spoon.

    I downloaded and re-installed from your link. I even installed as Administrator....I still get the same message.

    Capture2.JPG Window capture showing message I get when trying to use WMA

    Other suggestions/diagnostics?

    Do you have any security software which might be blocking the encoder file?
